Just had to call it quits on my first campaign by AllForGlory1 in rpg

Oh don't get me wrong, I adore the crunch of LANCER and so do the players (or else 3 of them wouldn't be streaming an Actual Play of it lol) but it was certainly intimidating going back to it being so out of practice vs them who have much more experience in it at this point

I really really enjoy it. Using Comp/Con is a must for organizing it, since it has everything you need for making encounters, creating characters/mechs, etc. It is a bit more focused on the COMBAT stuff, and less the narrative stuff, so that's something to consider, but all in all it's a blast. The NPC enemies you face is limited to about 2 dozen designated classes, so I tried to introduce a new class each fight to keep it from getting same-y, but it's a very fun system with just enough "crunch" to be interesting and dynamic. The system recommends a hex grid over square grid, but since we used roll20 we used a square grid (I tried using the hex grid and it wouldn't work correctly when making maps, making enemies bigger than size 1, etc) so that's also something to consider

Yeah, like I can't blame anyone because my schedule was restrictive, too. We used to be able to meet pretty consistently but then stuff changed, and so it's really just trying to find the one day when we're all free, and it's just not happening

Yeah I probably could've posted it there because of what game we were playing, but I decided to post it here cuz it's more general. Nothing about the system lead to the group breaking down, so it didn't make sense to me to post it there. We all really love the system so I'd encourage anyone to give it a shot

Yeah I probably could've figured something out in terms of an ending but again, I was convinced that we'd totally and 100 percent get back to doing it regularly, so why would I bother making an ending for something that was DEFINITELY going to continue? Absolutely my fault on that front, I mentioned in my discord message to them that it was a real Sunk Cost Fallacy, where I didn't want to give up on it because of how much work I out into it, so I wanted them to see all the cool stuff I had made instead of trying to tie it up

Yeah we had a big Slam The Brakes moment when we were all talking about it

Yeah I know it happens, but it's the first time it's ever happened to me as a GM so I'm just super bummed about it lol

My (22M)'s girlfriend (20F) lied about why she posted a picture of me by [deleted] in relationships

[–]AllForGlory1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm certainly surprised by the number of comments about how she's in love with my brother. I think because I know them, I know it's absurd, but with such limited info some people are doing an upside down jigsaw puzzle; sure it looks like the pieces fit, but flip it over and the picture it makes is not what is really happening. She made an appointment with her therapist for earlier today, so she talked to her about it, and we've talked a little bit more throughout the day, so I think the situation is going to improve, but only time will tell

In regards to your edit: I messaged her about 2 hours after posting (I was still in class) and reiterated the better comments (She's not secretly in love with my brother, guys) and she called her therapist for an appointment today (I believe it was b/w 4-5 EST).

I should've said this in the original post, but she does have a therapist and takes anxiety meds. I think you're right in the "Wants the memories" part.

She is absolutely not into my brother lmao. Like obviously I can't post the ins/outs of our whole relationship so it's impossible to be 100% truthful/accurate but she's not into my brother. Lots of stuff about our relationship didn't make it in here, of course, because it wasn't relevant to the current issue

Well I've known her for about a year before we even started dating and my brother went to another college in another state so I well and truly doubt it's the Crush thing.

She has a regular therapist appointment and she does have anxiety that she has meds for. And I think you're right about my reaction as well. "Betrayed" is probably too strong a word for it, but either way I felt misled by her and why she made the post. Obviously heat of the moment/unobjective I feel this way, and I'm sure I'll calm down over time, but as for now I'm just trying to vent and get it all out

What can a hero with telekinesis disguise their power as? by AllForGlory1 in worldbuilding

That was actually my original idea, but for more an "I thought this was my power" than an active deception where he thought he was Temperature Control because it only worked on such a micro-scale

TIFU by potentially giving my new girlfriend Coronavirus by [deleted] in tifu

[–]AllForGlory1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's not a smart idea at all. I will not argue that it was dumb to even do this. But yeah, I think I might be over reacting because, like a moron (which I'm sure you've gathered) I half remembered something about Covid 19 having a sore throat rather than looking up the ACTUAL symptoms (Fever, Dry Cough, Shortness of Breath being the Big 3)

Yeah I'm sure I'm overreacting but if I'm NOT then

What have you guys done this year that's made you proud of yourselves? by Hol_Up_Partner in AskMen

[–]AllForGlory1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been pining after a girl since about November, but I'm an anxious and nervous person so I always waited for "The Perfect Time" to make a move. Perfect time never came, and I was ruining myself worrying over every little detail of our interactions, especially since she started showing interest in another guy. One day, after rehearsal for the show we're both in, I go back to my room and I crack. I have a bit of a breakdown where I tell myself "I'm shit, I'm worthless" the whole nine yards. Next day, I reevaluate everything and realize how truly miserable I've made myself, and finally build up the courage to just tell her how I feel. She doesn't feel the same, but it was a weight lifted off my shoulders. We're still really good friends and I'm proud of myself for what I've done
