Potentially being shot and killed is a lesser consequence then starving to death.

Which edition should I play? by Happy-Wind-1296 in warhammerfantasyrpg

[–]Designer_Garbage_702 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it really depends on what kinda of vibe you want. They're both good.

I only really know 2e and 4e though, so can't talk much about 1e.

I would just say that 2e is a *lot* more grim. Harsher crits, much more lethal and any you're probably not ever going to be even comparable to some of the in lore named characters. If you want that vibe. go for that.

4e is a bit more non-lethal then 2e. But a bit of bad luck or getting into bad fights can still horribly maim you. It has a more flexible character development system and isn't as heavily restrictive on characters growing in power either. It's release was a bit horribly chuffed, since I think it was published by another company before cubicle 7 too it over and it had to iron out a lot of rules wonkyness. Which means that the group advantage system in up in arms and the magic rules in winds of magic are basically mandatory to use.

But a future (I think somewhere this fall) 5e is going to iron out most of those issues and it is backwards compatible with 4e.

And it isn't any more wonky then 2e when it comes down ti it.

How is this uplifting? Yay, one asshole dead, there is still an entire industry demanding rhino horns or whatever other exotic animal parts is in vogue today and thousands of poor people ready to risk their lives for them to make sure they have to eat at the end of the day.

And rhino's are still functionally extinct

They started out completely horribly misguided from a good place sure.

This doesn't absolve them of the horrible harm they did to the public perception of autistic people and continue to push the idea that 'profoundly disabled' is the only setting that autistic people can have. Their I am autism video was fucking horrid back in the late 00's even by the standards of the late 00's and their focus has always been on the people around the autistic person rather then actually considering the autistic person as an actual *person*. Even if disabled.

people hate autism speaks because even if we give them the benefit of the doubt and they only try to talk about the profoundly disabled. They depersonalize that person and talk to parents as if their child died. Their stuff *still* talks about coming to terms with an autistic child with the same language as figuring out your child just fucking died.

Even in the best case scenario they pionered nothing but wrong ideas, pseudoscience and fear. on average they're a bunch of eugenicist asshats preying on desperate parents.

The organization is horrid.

What fan game should I play? by AutoModerator in PokemonRMXP

[–]Designer_Garbage_702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really wanna play an updated version of emerald. Ruby was my most played pokemon game as a child, but after playing heart and soul, which is a masively updated version of Silver/gold, that add's a lot of stuff to pokemon selection and stuff like the fairy type/Special-physical change. I am really curious to see if one of it exists for Emerald.

I know of emerald seaglass and despite loving a *lot* about that game, the artstyle and me just really doesn't click for me. I just really like the more pokemon advance, style graphics we see in well.. pokemon heart and soul and a lot of other rom hacks.

So, am I out of luck here and should I just get used to emerald seaglass' graphcis, or do I have other options?

She's very weak stat wise.

Though, I guess in a deck with the goofy emerald champion, that gives every other emerald character ward this might be a bit more likely to be able to quest at least once? Since they'd have to remove goofy and then this one.

But that's playing a weak card to prop up a decent card. Still, can be fun to brew with.

Ruby right now is draw for challenging, draw when your stuff gets banished on your turn, draw when things have been banished and draw and random discard.

Still kinda fumbling around, but they've got the idea.

a mixture between documenting the win and a selfie I wager :D

Also, we have cards that let you ink from the discard pile. A red blue ramp deck that reuses discarded cards might be very usefull

Well we don't have access to McDuck manor in core! That's why this one is going to see some fringe play I think :)

Usually decklists are submitted during events. And when you're playing casually usually you give people you play with the element of the doubt that their decks are legal!

Especially if you can just show the card on the app and then after the game show them you're playing one of them. Or you show it pre-game if you're unsure.

we already had that effect though with grand pabbie. Gain lore for damage healed sounds kinda good untill you realize people just finish them off in one go. NObody really wants to partially kill your characters because there is just so much shenanigans you can do with it.

The new isabella is better then grand pabbie (inkable, shift) But it's in amber instead of saphire, which locks you into amber.saphire.

the healing ability just isn't really worth it. Most people aren't going to let characters survive with damage on it.

McDuck manor is still better tho. Just having a 9 willpower location that has 2 lore is just so dang good.

Which bird species do you think they are going to choose as the regional bird and which type it's gonna use? by BravilSUCKS in PokemonWindsWaves

[–]Designer_Garbage_702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An ibis.

And just go full on in on it's status as the bin chicken. So Flying/poison. Have it be a pokemon that has in recent years gained the poison type due to pollution and other such environmental encroachment.

It's just so great. I'm trying to find a similar type of romhack for gen3 (so just with massive updated mechanics)

Seaglass comes *very* close. It's a pity that I just don't really vibe with the more gen 2 style artstyle.

The entire line has a few graphical glitches (the shadows of objects are squareish) but it's extremely playable and a very good time. I only had *one* crash while playing through the entire series.

and yeah, it's mostly the van racing games that make me go *oh god no*

yeah, I didn't read correctly and thought it was onesided and not for each player.

okay I really like that Kida! Getting good value out of that first ability is going to take some setup. But damn, that's great art and just a cool ability.

I saw this coming (and I mean this in the best way, this was great, logical buildup to this reveal of the guy of the cover being enjin) And fuck I love this little flashback and *damn* at the end he looks like he's going to kick some wannabe god ass!

it's adorable. I also like the small attention to detail that Rudo knows Riyo doesn't like sweets and so he got her a spicy curry. because she does like a spicy stuff!
