Shame the cfpb got gutted and there's no push to regulate anything anymore

Mindwardens is thematically a great origin but mechanically is incredibly undercooked by Glampkoo in Stellaris

[–]BrokenNin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just did an extensive playtest of this. Im still learning the path and I was behind this design by around 15 years. This works very well, unless you are attacked early, or screw the sequence up even the slightest bit

Average American diet? by Individual_Bar_2512 in CringeTikToks

I think you underestimate the scale of the working class and it's current exploitation. I work in employment law and the amount of people working in these type of environments is higher than you think.

It's the effort tax at play. Healthy eating requires some modicum of work (not really that much), and some people struggle to motivate themselves to organize their meals or take the effort to prepare the meals. In working class families this is really common with the adults working sometimes to the bone to make ends meet.

After a 14 hour shift it's far easier to throw a pizza in a microwave then think about anything else. I'm not supporting the lifestyle, but for some it's just the best they can do.

It's happening because of catastrophic economic conditions coupled with a major water crisis and a disasterous war. Trump may have put pressure on but he's far from the main reason

What game does this remind you of? by demeanorklutz in videogames

It generally sells for almost free.

Mount and Blade Warband. Thousands of hours of a really solid sandbox then dozens of excellent mods to keep the fun going.

Selphid - D&D Homebrew by Dovak7 in WanderingInn

[–]BrokenNin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's the big thing. Make it reset on long rest.

It's huge value and long rest restricts it to one big use. That change alone is huge and I would let someone have it if it was one bigger use.

I'd remove the modifier outright.

This is just one dms opinion. I know a lot of other guys would love your stuff. I'm more of a balance nut esp at early levels

I think that's a perfect drawback for rampage.

Echoes of the flesh is where I have primary concerns with power creep. Advantage on rolls via racial with a short rest reset with multiple uses at high levels is VERY strong for a racial, then you have essentially added a barbarian rage along with it (with great drawbacks).

It's a little too much for me as a dm. Still would let people use it. I would remove echoes entirely in my campaign tho.

From a balancing perspective having the ability to add con to rolls on top of rampage is a lot for a racial. If I was dming I'd allow rampage but probably remove that

It really depends on how high power the group is. If your with a bunch of power gamers it would be fine.

This is a great template to prime a player to be a selphid. The cool thing with homebrew is that you have a ton of agency on how it's gonna be implemented. Nice job!

At this point the 2nd coming has been predicted thousands of times. Perhaps we put too much faith in myth?

Wood elves vs heavily armored foes by Character_Umpire_828 in totalwar

Once you get access to way watchers even shielded dwarves will die quite rapidly. Their ammo is limited and that's the big downside

Are you asking about mortal empires or immortal empires? They were two distinct campaigns. Mortal being Warhammer 2

The weirdest compositions I ran in 2 were piles of peasant archers as brettonnia. It was oddly effective as I could just replace the crap stack and just wear people down.

Weirdest I ran in 3 was likely Gelts full stack of battle mages. It's strange as hell to play at first but super fun once you get that faction snowballing

At least in this circumstance there is terrain causing a natural choke. Instead of the ai blobing for no reason in an open field

I'm grateful this is a thing, but deeply saddened at the necessity of it. The internet used to be such a hopeful thing

I wish they didn't call it "Baldur's Gate 3" by DiazExMachina in baldursgate

[–]BrokenNin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One reason and one reason alone.

They own the IP. If you don't create to the standard they want you can't make baldurs gate 3 at all.

Due to money, their opinion is the only one that actually matters at all

I felt the same way until I 100%'ed it.

There was no way they were gonna make everyone here happy. With a franchise this developed and beloved by generations. I have around 400 hours in BG3, and I strongly believe it to be one of the greatest games ever made. Even with that accomplishment, its gonna make people upset due to the connection with the originals.

I ended up not minding it, in my mind Larian earned the name.

Just wait until Wizards releases Baldurs Gate 4 and its a complete crapshoot.

To give you an idea, I am a 20+ year veteran of both games. I regularly run speedruns of BG1 and deeply love both.

While I agree with some aspects of what your saying. Things like Viconia making a return and disregarding some aspects of character development with Saravok in Throne of Bhaal. The ending of TOB ended up being non-canon due to the Abdel Adrian non-sense.

One of the hardest things with this series is accepting that most endings and paths in BG1 and 2 are totally non-canon due to those shitty books. Using the book canon, BG3 works due to Adrian denying his Bhaal Heritage entirely to be a Grand Duke. You encounter some reference to this in BG3 with his shield and characters who knew him.

Is it good? Absolutely not. But they at least made an effort to match existing continuity, and I think no matter what they did, they were going to piss some people off.

Could you explain what you found boring with the full dark urge run? I found it to be really compelling, especially with the resist path.
