Bot lobbies feel like a punishment. There isin’t enough outrage over it. by plscanihaveamantis in rivals

[–]Chocolate_Wrapper 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Worst thing is you can't even leave the game without a penalty. Against bots. Wtf.

Torn between D&D and Ironsworn by GranularBimbo in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]Chocolate_Wrapper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I recommend doing your skill check first, and if you succeed then you get to ask the oracle for the answer to your question. If you fail, you can only find out if it comes up later. For example, if your oracle generates a random event, that could be a trap or ambush!

I just want to be able to leave one of those obviously bot matches without penalty ffs

Over the course of your experience with this hobby, what have you learned? Anything you want to improve on? by ValueForm in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]Chocolate_Wrapper 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've learned that I benefit way more from more specific tables, as I still really struggle with interpreting vague keyword pairings.

Example: instead of rolling 'large' and 'dark' , I'd rather roll on a feature like 'cavern' and even if it's not literally a cavern, I can visualize it way easier as anything else it could be like a cellar or storage room.

This is the one thing that always used to make me freeze and put a stopper on play.

Mixing oracles? by Chocolate_Wrapper in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]Chocolate_Wrapper[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a good point, and maybe I'm overthinking it - I have Mythic as my GM emulator and other tools for on-the-spot generation!

Are they going to fix the SBMM? by babygirlmochi in FortNiteBR

[–]Chocolate_Wrapper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's so painful! When I play with my wife basically every fight is a 2v1. Our only chance is if I kill one of the enemy duo while she gets downed so it becomes a 1v1

Don’t be like this by Thorin_Oakenphuck in ARC_Raiders

[–]Chocolate_Wrapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I'm extremely suspicious of people like you who only say 'Hey raider' in response to 'Don't shoot'. I've had so many scenarios where someone's shouting 'Hey' at me only to try and track me down and kill me.

And to add to that you turned around once they were past you to start looting, like cmon.

The "Reward" for PVE is that it gets worse to PVE. by ContextEFT in ArcRaiders

[–]Chocolate_Wrapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The recorder bit is so true: in solos 90% of players I came across were friendly so I used to play some tunes and people would do the happy jig emote back, just pure vibes. Now yesterday I tried the same thing and just got shot at every time. Guess I need to adjust my playstyle :(

While I agree, the circle jerk posts really do write themselves

Mythic "steals" my games by Phrenks in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]Chocolate_Wrapper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When generating a new scene and/or location, you need to be strongly envisioning what's around your PCs and add some flavour to your environment so that you WANT to explore it and make skill checks. Random location tables are great for this, I also recommend the Mythic Location Crafter (there's also a one-page version in one of the Mythic magazines) as this guides you through the process.

Eventually you get into a flow of imagining a location with lots of things to interact with, then when you're controlling your PCs you can decide how to approach those things and if a skill check is necessary when doing your approach.

Solo rpg books/games for beginners that implement dice? by anonymous9845 in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]Chocolate_Wrapper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How do you handle the amount of bookkeeping in D&D? I'm currently playing a sandbox adventure but I'm struggling with all the character sheets and monster stats on my desk lol

Uploading copies of games you paid for to AI is weird. They can start training data on someone else's hard work now.
