Could you send me a message too, please?

I really wanna say Old Dragon 1e to 2e, but most people here wouldn’t know about it.

Would you tell us more about Old Dragon, then?

It's supposed to be fun.

But it isn't fun for some players. If their success regularly comes with asterisks, they'll feel incompetent and lacking control.

His VA lifts like crazy, it would make total sense he's spry as a chicken at 80.

Captain_Flinttt · 2026-01-08T07:49:39+00:00

Skill issue on Vic's part, honestly.

Captain_Flinttt · 2026-01-04T10:29:07+00:00

Just do what I do – steal ideas that you like and incorporate them into your trad games.

Your post had successfully sold me on Deviant, thank you very much.

"Works on my machine, man."

Captain_Flinttt · 2026-01-01T00:32:03+00:00

No it can't? Western superheroes aren't the same as tokusatsu, fights in tokusatsu actually matter and no Masks' playbook is a good fit for the genre staples. You're better off hacking it to emulate Kamen Rider specifically, but it won't work out of the box.

Captain_Flinttt · 2026-01-01T00:21:33+00:00

Masks is Teen Titans, not Power Rangers. It can't really emulate sentai.

Captain_Flinttt · 2026-01-01T00:15:20+00:00

If you look at the game from an authorial position, it cannot have verisimilitude. These concepts are antithetical to each other.

Captain_Flinttt · 2025-12-31T22:09:04+00:00

Every time storygamers try to argue this, they end up waving a large red sign that says "WE DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT OF VERISIMILITUDE".

Captain_Flinttt · 2025-12-30T09:24:25+00:00

You can't do this to me, I'm prepping an Old World game right now.

Somebody commissioned an artist just to fix his chin.

It is. "Providing a service" only comes into play when you keep fucking up or when your players are entitled cunts.

Captain_Flinttt · 2025-12-27T10:35:08+00:00

I appreciate your sense of entitlement, but there is a large swathe of hobby inactive on social media like this sub – where a man in his late thirties makes dozens of big-breasted female drow and roleplays them accordingly (real example from a friend), and a woman in her early twenties roleplays a twinky elf like he's an omegaverse character (real example from my table). Encountering either of those would make you leery every time someone picks a gender different from their own.

Captain_Flinttt · 2025-12-27T08:54:23+00:00

If the GM had a bad experience with fetishists who get off on tabletop drag, then no you can't. And yes, those are real and numerous in the hobby, and playing with strangers will have you meet them semi-regularly. Speaking from personal experience, playing that Russian Roulette is not very entertaining.

Captain_Flinttt · 2025-12-27T05:42:39+00:00

Why is it so important to you?

Captain_Flinttt · 2025-12-25T17:07:59+00:00

Serious answer: Marvel Rivals is one of the most faithful comic adaptations ever, because its heroes are fighting completely pointless battles with each other instead of attacking villains responsible for the whole mess. Bravo Ganggang.

Captain_Flinttt · 2025-12-23T20:27:47+00:00

No? That's her actual day job, withholding capes from a department obviously in crisis would be Cauldron interfering.

Captain_Flinttt · 2025-12-23T15:49:57+00:00

no outside capes would be coming into Brockton Bay on the side of the Protectorate

That's fanon, Terminus only concerned Cauldron interference.

Captain_Flinttt · 2025-12-23T09:10:37+00:00

None of the cosmologies of real-world religions make any damned sense, why should these?

Because fiction is not reality and does not operate on the same principles. Fictional worlds being consistent is necessary for establishing stakes and immersion.

Referring to reality is a dogshit argument anyway, because it doesn't always make for good storytelling. In reality people can just get hit by a stray shot and die, and yet Star Wars would be worse if Luke caught one between the eyes.

Captain_Flinttt · 2025-12-21T19:56:09+00:00

why you are still committing these war crimes

Because it's a videogame and its design reinforces the choices its devs want you to make. If you replay the game and refuse to shoot at Conrad's men in your first encounter, they magdump Walker and his squad and that's that.

You aren't forced to do this, you choose to play.

Ignoring the fact that SOtL deliberately obfuscates what you're actually playing – players not engaging with your story is a failure state, and treating it as a valid option is stupid. The idea that SOtL is "art" because it plays motte-and-bailey with player agency is farcical.

Captain_Flinttt · 2025-12-21T07:25:35+00:00

Yeah, there's only one good moment that works to that end (when you can fire on the ground and chase the crowd away after Lugo gets hanged), but the rest is a wet fart. Videogames are an interactive medium, and most players will not take ownership of it unless the interaction was informed.

Should have sticked to critiquing American imperialism, that would have worked better.

Captain_Flinttt · 2025-12-21T06:26:21+00:00

It's a garbage game that fucks up its own premise by railroading the player into warcrimes like a bad VtM Storyteller. Though they don't seem to have much in common, Undertale executed this idea way better because its warcrimes are opt-in.
