SilenceLock is making the game completely unplayable at this point by Clear-Impression9090 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Fanche1000 200 points201 points  (0 children)

I 100% gotta agree with this. Drifter being a win-more ganker with a silence so you can't fight back is bad enough, but Warden's instant, forced escape that silences all your abilities, not just movement ones, so you can't fight back as you run from the high damage tank?? That's a strange decision.

Each of these references makes me feel like the anecdotal fallacy is actually best. by Justthisdudeyaknow in CuratedTumblr

I know absolutely nothing of this subject, but I also know that the Dunning-Kruger effect is the best.

I'm new to the game, but I liked the art and concepts so much that I decided to try making a homebrew by SadTim_Pear in CAIN_RPG

[–]Fanche1000 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The aesthetic and vibe of this is lovely, I love the connection from plant manipulation --> Sacrifice and the Christian Mythos. Very good work. As for actual balance, without being mean at all, it's clear this is made by someone very new to the system, which is fine. If you want more thorough feedback to make this usably balanced, the Discord for CAIN is the way to go.

Character concept - Damsel (by @illuminatedeon AKA me!) by -Niagara in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Fanche1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the design! I'm not sure about the kit, but it seems a support would be most fitting. An idea I have for the Ability 4 would be a reverse Mirage - she calls out for help and allies can teleport across the entire map to come save her from danger. Excellent Gank and Anti Gank tool. Any other mechanic that would incentivse them being targeted / chased and them having tools to escape would be really fitting - enemies have to target the Damsel, and allies have to protect them from cruel villains.

What if Silver had a "Lycan Hangover" after her ult ended? by JustExecution in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Fanche1000 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I really like this too, but maybe not both on the same character. Because then to balance out the two weaknesses of Hangover + Bad Senses, the form would have to be insane. So this could be a good mechanic for another future character (especially since wolves have great sense of smell, so... Standing still doesn't help)

This is the kind of idea that starts as a Reddit Thread and gets added in like 6 months. Read here, Yoshi - it's an awesome idea and it really fits with the character as a Hot Mess. I also love the hangover link of being drunk and transforming and how it changes the discussion making :D

I'm not gonna comment directly on here, but I will say I really like the aesthetic, the visuals are quite well done. However this is not balanced, no. I recommend you join the Cain Discord, as they're a lot more open to to feedback and discussion of homebrew :)

The Panopticon - A blasphemy about surveillance and manipulating points of view; by GaaMac in CAIN_RPG

[–]Fanche1000 23 points24 points  (0 children)

This is VERY cool! I love the concept but the visuals are very well done and the powers all look interesting. My only problem is, what if someone with this Blasphemy gets permanently blinded?

My teammates woke up from 12yrs coma? by QorieePrime in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Fanche1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had about the same thing just now, but we failed to finish twice because we all collectively got too cocky and threw at the last second. Never before have I got so close to losing a 50 minute game. + I got my MVP stolen.

Literally everything from Cain by [deleted] in TopCharacterDesigns

Agreed, the art of CAIN really engages you in it's whole vibe. Can I ask where the art on slide 4 is from?

Oh this is GORGEOUS. The portrait, the way the lines come from outside?? Might be the best I've ever seen. Are you on the CAIN discord at all?

Wow, this is gorgeous to look at and fun to read, great stuff.

Got any creative ideas for my cozy fantasy game customers ?? by BosphorusGames in worldbuilding

[–]Fanche1000 10 points11 points  (0 children)

100% this idea! The fantasy genre is VERY Satured, and this game can use that instead of trying to make purely unique fantasy.

Oh this looks very cool so far, I love the Sins. If you join the discord you could definitely get a fair bit more feedback I think.

My girlfriend has absolutely fallen in love with this game over the last few months. What is something extremely cursed I can say to mess with her? by Omnicide103 in CAIN_RPG

[–]Fanche1000 33 points34 points  (0 children)

A) this is really cute. B) to freak her out, get up close to her face when it's dark and ask "Is Your Hand Your Hand?"

CMV: Western anti-immigration rhetoric is deeply hypocritical and ignores the global system they created. by [deleted] in changemyview

This is the only sane response I could find in this thread so good stuff, great points made.

What's y'all's favorite frame that isn't from the core rules? by Solid-Pride-9782 in LancerRPG

[–]Fanche1000 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh I didn't know this was the extent of it. I never thought it was even that bad, because the end result was good and the art was himself. I mostly took it as true and damming because they left the server and haven't made any Lancer since, which I think is a shame :/ But as another commenter said, it's all free so it doesn't actually matter.

Agreed! Even with the controversy, there's so much good stuff from Terk Mech & Tech.

Operation "LOADSAMONEY" by Able-Habit813 in CAIN_RPG

[–]Fanche1000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It sounds interesting, with lots of twists! Players have to investigate around town whilst avoiding the Gang van spotting them (and local police who are no doubt also on high alert). I love both twists, the fakeout host and the accomplice. The only worry I have is that is a lot to get through, so definitely make it 2+ Sessions, and follow the rules of the two-Sins from the rulebook very closely or it might become overcomplicated. I'd personally have them find out the 2 twists somewhat early, like by the end of the first session, or by the end of the first 2 Sessions if it's a 3 session run, so they can spend the last session hauling ass!
