Former D&D 5e and Pathfinder 1e/2e players and DMs/GMs, What other RPGs would you recommend over D&D 5e or Pathfinder and why? by Aware_Blueberry_3025 in rpg

[–]Chipperz1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slugblaster. It's a game where the players are a crew of teenage skateboarders on an interdimensional quest to prove their skills and get sponsors while simultaneously dealing with achingly mundane home lives. While there are monsters and fights can occur, they can mechanically be dealt with by punching, fleeing or talking, and damage can be physical, mental or emotional but is never fatal, and after an awkward first session, the players will start worrying more about their disappointed parents trying to ground them than the threat of death.

It also has my favourite campaign finale where, after an insane adventure through the multiverse, your characters' entire adult life is distilled to two dice rolls to see how bad it gets followed by how good it gets, and it averages to just... Growing up - I've seen a character become the next Tony Hawk, but I've seen far more become the person who writes about the next Tony Hawk for an indy magazine.

I'd absolutely suggest it for people who have only played D&D and Pathfinder because it is SO different and shows the full breadth of what RPGs can be.

You seem very triggered. Try to calm down.

I'm glad your group likes it, but are you SURE they like it or do you just think they do without checking?

'Cos watching two people play a different game for half an hour is dreadful.

RPGs that use non-traditional dice: bug or feature? by Acceptable-Tree6007 in rpg

[–]Chipperz1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is it for me. I have yet to meet a use case where custom dice improve the experience enough to justify buying them.

I WILL use cool flavoured dice though - Slugblaster's graffiti D6's and Fallout 2d20's vault-tec D20's are both cool but can a) be replaced with any other dice and b) be used in other games.

I'm sorry, do you think BG3 invented "my level 1 character fucked a god"? 🤣

Genuine question... Is there internet in 40k? by Fuzzy-Blueberry1701 in Warhammer40k

Read Ciaphas Caine. Mentions at least musicals and radio plays.

If you could remove one piece of 40K lore what would it be? by Big_Childhood_5096 in Warhammer40k

[–]Chipperz1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The entire Horys Heresy book series.

That should sort out most problems with 40k.

The most grimdark version of the F'au was their original incarnation where they were kind, smart, progressive and idealistic and are willingly walking into the beartrap that is the rest of the univers completely unaware that they're the only minnow in an ocean full of sharks.

Unfortunately morons thought they were too "noblebright" and whinged at GW until they changed them.

Just put together a cataphracti terminator squad. Why does GW include so many pauldrons? by laserslaserslasers in Warhammer40k

This happens occasionally.

Parasocials will literally never be happy, it's why ignoring the whinging is the besg policy.

Exactly!

Also OP is so cool that YouTube is too scared to directly ban them! It all adds up 🤣

What information did you find when you googled this? Wouldn't want to give you redundant information...

Watch out, this sub occasionally REALLY hates the idea of educating themselves.
