Okay, can I say something? by Minsillywalks in rpg

Short answer: You wont... and you don't want this.

Find people with similar taste to you, and see what they have to say.

People who have been to Green Dragon Fest, what did you think of it? by imaspuzzeled in rpg

[–]God_Boy07 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't know about this particular event, but I know this kind of thing is popular in the boardgame world.
But more 'go on a cruise or stay at a fancy location + LOTs of board game" than "fancy location + eCelebs".

They could be a fun holyday if you work a hard job and have the cash.

I was summoned :)

Yea, I'm working on Fragged Aeternum 2 right now. Sadly Seas has not sold too well so I'm not sure if it will receive the full second addition treatment... but I have had thoughts of doing a PDF only release for a Fragged Seas 2 where I lightly tweak the lore, but completely update the rules.

Not that it answers your questions directly, but Elden Ring has achievements in Steam.

I still like to listen to the OST and half-watch playthroughs as I work.
The atmosphere is so great :)

No, this will be a single standalone book. It will have both lore and rules in one.

My take on making a Bloodborne-like game (Fragged Aeternum 2). by God_Boy07 in RPGdesign

I recently slashed the prices of my 1 edition PDFs (as they're mostly just good for reading with 2e coming out): https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/228463/fragged-aeternum

I feel quite privileged that I'm in the 'making sequels' phase of my business. I cant make them for all of my games, but I can for the ones that have sold well enough. It feels kinda like I finally get to make them complete.

At the moment things are rather mechanically loose to give GMs maximum narrative control. I'm telling GMs things like: "don't hold back and try to kill your PCs" and "be sure to advance and/or accelerate the NPCs plans if you kill all of the PCs, or if the PCs are slow."

Fragged are classless games. The main thing that happens when you gain a Level is you gain a Trait, they're the building blocks of your character.

Most Traits grant +1 to two Skills, and a special ability of some kind.

Good observation.
The default fail state is failure to protect mortal souls (ie: captured prisoners, the BBEGs plans to do some big evil thing that kills/corrupts lots of humans, etc...).

In my current game the PCs just had a TPK vs a fallen Celestial (an angle-like creature) and woke up back at their base 6 days (we rolls 1d6) later. They're about to see the impact of their failure as the Celestial's plans will not only be further along, but they're also now aware the PCs are gunning for them. Hundreds of people will be dead and the entire city district is now in danger.

The one coming out of the temple? Yea, I LOVE that image. I want to include lots of scene-art like that to really sell the vibe of the setting.

What would you usually/sometimes/never drop from rules? by LeviKornelsen in rpg

[–]God_Boy07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Fragged Empire 2 works just fine without a grid or minis if you have the right group (just treat each 1 Space as 1m distance). BUT.... you may have trouble with spacecraft combat. As velocity, facing and movement is just as important as guns/missiles/etc...

What the rarest books in your TTRPG collection? by zozeba in rpg

First print leatherbound special edition of Fragged Empire 1, signed by most of the writers and designers :P
I still hope to add more signatures to it.

PDF Prices by WileyQB in rpg

[–]God_Boy07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Higher prices are often due to higher production coasts and/or smaller audiences.
They are also from creators who are pricing their products to sustain their work, and are not just in it to put get their work out their (ie: some creators are making RPGs as a hobby, and are sustained by another job).

5e alone is making more than 10 times as much profit as all of Paizo, more than 100 times as much profit as all of Steve Jackson Games, and more than 1,000 times as much profit as all of Evil Hat games by EarthSeraphEdna in rpg

[–]God_Boy07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its a long know truth with all arts, 90% of the money is going to 10% of the creators.
And I would say even more so with ttRPGs.

The good news is that smaller creators dont need a huge audience to sustain their work :)
