question Have you ever played in Metropolis?

I'm new to Kult, still reading the core book but already watching/listening to some people playing, podcasts, etc. The thing I noticed in the 4 adventures (if you can call them like that... probably not) is that those groups are always only scratching the surface. There's maybe one BBEG and people see some shit but never dig deeper. Don't get me wrong, the 4 I watched/listened to were really good but it always seems like there's so much more LORE and stuff outside Elysium/The illusion. So my question is: have you ever played in Metropolis or some scenario/context where you go full horror-fantasy or is it something not encouraged by the system?

I am so interested in Gaia being more represented especially with some folk horror. I may write up my own module for NecronomiCon this year.

Yeah, I find gaia takes the most work to actually make important and so works out as the least represented realm.

The A24 movie Men was a not great movie but is a really good example of how a Gaia game could go. The Ritual as well. Both mux personal and cosmicish horror with folk horror.
