Why would my gears be skipping under load? New-ish cassette, new-ish chain, narrow wide ring, 8-speed, friction shifting. Bad shifting by me? Play in derailleur?

Knackered chain ring?

Sure it isn't the freehub? If everything else is reasonably new/matching it could be the pawls sticking/failing to engage completely. I had that sensation of slipping with an old freewheel and also on a clapped out BSO rear wheel.
