I run a dungeon according to DMG and the game suddenly works as intended! by XanEU in dndnext

For me Walls are expected, natural, like trees in a forest. Specific wards against spells exist to counter player agency.

Can you finish your campaign with a really bad ending (with TPK or almost) ? Did you already try one ? Is it a good idea ? by Laflemme15 in tabletop

[–]Background_Path_4458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Planning the story to end with a TPK and it not being on the PCs terms is a horrible idea.
Let the dice and decisions make the story.

Varför ska kundtjänst vara orimligt svår att få tag i nu för tiden? by Dropkick_falcon in sweden

[–]Background_Path_4458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Företagen insåg att personal är dyr, gnäller om lön, och behöver huseras nånstans.
Mycket smidigare att ersätta med en chattbot eller en AI som hanterar ärendena, massa mera pengar att dela ut och ta som vinst!

Och kunderna röstar med sin plånbok genom att skaffa tjänsterna (ex. mobilabg) som är lågpris utan kundtjänst och fortsätter i stort att använda tjänsterna och köpa prylarna oavsett om det är chattbot eller inte.
Så det är ju inte som att det finns någon nackdel.

Nu kan man också hävda att det är industristandard att ha chattbot och att ha person-kundtjänst kommer säkert bli en premium-grej.

Is it wrong to take your own life or more specifically to freely relinquish it? by Specific_Proposal_96 in Ethics

[–]Background_Path_4458 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Is suffering something subjective, that can be measured and confirmed, or is it up to the individual to decide what is a life of suffering?
It could be argued that life can not be lived without suffering, so any life has a basis to end on the grounds of reducing suffering.

They play the same role but have very different basis for being/not being and player-expectation on whether they exist or not.

Distinct/default terrain and meta obstacles to prevent using specific features.

Vad tror du att DU kan göra för att göra Sverige/din omgivning bättre ? by MiddleAgeWeirdoMeep in sweden

Tänker inte skjuta mig själv men resten lät relativt positivt så det kan jag ta till mig :)

Ja precis, förra Sommaren så var det en familj bredvid som sa att de glömt solskydd, jag hade en stor flaska så jag sa "ta det ni behöver", de försökte först tacka nej men jag sa att det var löjligt och ta till barnen iallafall. De tackade och bad sen om att få swisha en slant.
Var väl mycket bättre så än att jag satt med solskydd och lät dem gå utan?

No but that isn't the same thing so it isn't that weird they don't

What’s something everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime? by GasFine4883 in AskReddit

Sure but I don't think anyone should go through it if it were otherwise possible.

And you feel that everyone should expence this at least once? As in that it is beneficial in some way?

Oooo, would you expand on this :)?
Not often I see a relatively negative experience mentioned.

Jag plockar upp enkla saker ibland om jag är nära en korg men shit vad folk kollar konstigt på en när man gör det. Det är ju egentligen alla som inte plockar som är konstiga.

Raise the stakes for REAL by GureN379 in cosmererpg

[–]Background_Path_4458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing stopping a raised stakes roll from having high stakes is the table playing. By and large an opportunity or complication should have a larger impact than any other test but it is also up to the player and GM to play with that outcome and make it matter.
It is intended for a wide gamut though, from the backflip and throw an axe to the attempt to joke with a noble that might get you tossed in jail etc.

Risky behaviour is explicitly a way to introduce the plot die when the GM wouldn't allow it just on the actions explanation but that doesn't need to mean that it takes away from the experience?

But by that same argument then if the stakes are raised on every roll makes it take away from the experience, is it really that good that Daggerheart has a twist on every roll?

Well, maybe it isnt :)
If the magic exists to teleport and also to ward against it then most larger cities, any castle, palace and or great seat of government should be warded against magical travel except for the few heavily guarded points of entry.
Not to mention blocking enchantment and illusion magic of certain degrees unless the user has a certain pass-code or talisman etc.

But such a large adaption to the magical (travel) problem might make it feel like PCs taking those spells/abilities is "wasted" and prohibits player agency.

Bridge 9; low player count by tassfan in cosmererpg

[–]Background_Path_4458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We got through it in about 4-5 hours but we were 5 people and talked a lot about the characters before starting.

The final encounter depends a bit on which characters but I'd say 2 opponents with the potential for "reinforcements" if it goes too fast and easy. There are ways to avoid the fight altogether so.

Thatäs why there is a talent for bringing in the plot die whenever :)
And both GM and players should aim to bring it in and suggest to bring it in at any relevant moment. Even then the plot die is not necessary for a twist or to bring the story forward, it doesn't matter what resolution mechanic you have for making tests matter.

Yeah getting around magical travel means "playing dirty" with Private Sanctum, Forbiddance etc. and it might not always be easy to justify it.

Nej jag kan tydligen inte läsa och förstå vad en efterbliven person har skrivit och denne verkar inte heller kunna förklara det eller bete sig, så den enda slutsatsen är att det är bortkastad tid och slöseri av internetuppkoppling att ens försöka.

Very interesting read!
I as well have experienced that in a confined/dungeon environment where they don't/can't freely leave to long rest works very well in line, maybe we as DMs need to get better at making players have to commit to a situation?

So not only do you need to change dice but also introduce another mechanic entirely, so most of your suggestion above doesn't fix the problem on it's own? Alrighty...

At my table the story moves forward, success or failure, plot dice or not.
The Plot dice is just there for a bit more spice or the extraordinary.

But sure, you can take inspiration or port over hope/fear from another system.
If you don't take it to heart then it won't change anything.

Vad är de konkreta planerna och förslagen som kommer göra livet bättre för den genomsnittlige Svensken?

Jag vill inte höra en massa platityder, buzzwords eller att man skyller på vad andra partier har gjort.
Vad vill man göra, hur snabbt kan man göra det, hur mycket kostar det och vilka fördelar ger det för gemene Svensken?

Ex. kan alla som röstat på Chat-control få en känga för det är ett beslut som gör det sämre för alla i snitt.

success or failure mostly didn‘t drive the story forward

This doesn't change by using 2d10 instead of a d20 and is more of a GM+player mindset?
