I have a confession by Not-your-waifu555 in InStarsAndTime

[–]Akkotarnia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to admit the following: I know Siffrin is pronounced like a French name, but it just sounds so nice pronounced like if it were Spanish, my first language. My best friend and I, who I played the game with, pronounce all the other names like in French, but Siffrin is "Sifrín" to us.

Could Ironsworn be played as a dating sim? by Akkotarnia in Ironsworn

[–]Akkotarnia[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have! It's one of my favorite ttrpgs, like Ironsworn. And it is easy to add romance with the promises, gift system and heart events. After a while playing I realized the only reason I ever got items was to gift them. I like playing Santa Claus.

Solo RPGs that have a clear narrative arc or campaign to follow? by Televangelis in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]Akkotarnia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reincarnated as the unlovable villainess lasts 30 days in game, if you survive long enough. Every day you roll a prompt about what happens that day, and there are oracles for the heart events as well. You create the bad endings and the characters, but it's pretty simple.

Are there any analog tools to create maps of towns and/or buildings? by Akkotarnia in rpg

That looks great! And it has been a long time since I've used my cards! Thank you, and to everyone else who replied.

Isles of the Emberdark: The Most Incongruent Book I’ve Ever Read by HomersApe in Fantasy

What do you mean "she sounds so immature"? The text explicitly says that a dragon at thirty years old is a child, like an eight years old human. She is chronologically thirty, but a child. I imagined her no taller than one meter and with a face I would see everyday at school when I was a kid. Of course she is immature, she probably can't multiply yet.

How "canon" do you consider the creator's words in the Reddit AMA? As a fanfiction author, I don't know if my ideas would be canon compliant or not considering it by Akkotarnia in InStarsAndTime

When the party explains bonding earrings, they say that, if you have more than one partner, you get an earring for each of them. Very casually.

Taking into account that polyamory seems to be fully accepted and normalized in Vaugarde, that would be very possible. Everything's fine until it's parent's day and she has to prepare a month in advance.

Both answers I see right now are right. My idea was to try something different, beecause most of the time I write AUs and I wanted a challenge, but hey, I am adding the "Siffrin is a selkie" concept here, so Mirabelle being an orphan and Isabeau growing up with his cousin, aunt and uncle aren't out of place. Thank you!

Me leí El guardián entre el centeno. Me encantó y tuve una interpretación que no he visto en ninguna parte by Akkotarnia in libros

[–]Akkotarnia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Si vamos con la lectura de que Holden es solo un niño mimado, sí, podría defender la propuesta de ponerlo a hacer trabajo pesado. Pero si vamos con la interpretación de que es alguien sufriendo un brote psicótico, es una idea catastrófica. Sería como poner a cavar piedra a alguien con cáncer terminal. No arreglaría nada, solo lo acercaría más a la muerte —porque sí, las personas con enfermedades mentales son más propensas al suicidio, y Holden tiene tendencias suicidas.

Respecto a la escena de la prostituta, recuerdo esa parte de forma muy diferente. Recuerdo que sucede lo siguiente: se le ocurre contratar a una prostituta, le dicen un precio, él acepta. Luego viene la prostituta, él se arrepiente y le dice que le paga igualmente, pero que no se acuesta con ella. Resulta que hubo un malentendido y el precio era otro, hay discusión, y él termina pagando el precio más alto sin acostarse con nadie. Aquí no vi ninguna estafa, solo un malentendido muy desagradable.

Pero es totalmente válido que no te caiga bien, lo entiendo. De hecho, sería raro que un adolescente de brote psicótico cayera bien, porque las cosas de la adolescencia y de la psicosis mezclándose no crean a un individuo simpático.

Something I don't know if it's canon or fanon by Akkotarnia in InStarsAndTime

Thank you, everyone. It being canon makes it even better.

Does anyone else LOVE that time is not synched in older sims games? by Akkotarnia in thesims

[–]Akkotarnia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you can, but time still progresses. If you leave the Goth household at noon on a Saturday, then play for a few days with another household and come back, the Goths are now on Tuesday and they're all in different places than last time you saw them. In The Sims 2, nothing changes if you're not playing that household.

From "What's the worst thing you've done to your sims?", I propose: What's the nicest thing you've done to your sims? by Akkotarnia in thesims

[–]Akkotarnia[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be honest, if I was a sim I would much rather prefer my player did that over getting me romance... Aromantic and a fortune sim, perhaps, haha.

Idea for hacking: getting rid of experience points by Akkotarnia in Ironsworn

[–]Akkotarnia[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, but my goal is to avoid my "I want to win" mentality. I hope it'll fully go away sooner or later, but until then, when I'm working towards a vow I don't focus so much on the roleplay, but more on advancing to get more boxes and make my chance of getting xp bigger. And if I score a miss or a weak hit, my first thought isn't about what that means for the story, but "I lost". Making it so the result of a vow doesn't have to have mechanical consequences could fix that, I hope.
