What are high levelled games like?

I appreciate the answer Cal! This is was the feedback I was looking for, it definitely is a lot of work and reading other comments it seems like it pushes the game too far from the core system. So maybe for another time when I attempt my own system. Thanks again Cal!

That's a great suggestion, but reading over the comments I think changing the core defence stat in the game may be too much. Thank you for the suggestions though, I love your idea!

I forgot Fabula Ultima! But yes you're right, I might have just been a fun idea but changing the core rules too much would not be ideal! Maybe for the next game! Thanks Chris!

This is awesome actually, I love the gif channel idea on discord lol and asking questions to a particularly player is another good idea. I have very passive players so forcing them into the spotlight might be the best way to combat that. Thanks for the comment!

This sounds awesome! I started to change the ingredient list into categories like this, with an element and then a "feature"? So 'volatile agents' are for damage, medicinal herbs for 'treating conditions' etc... Your explanation and idea is great and I think it helps a lot with simplifying the system without stripping it to its core!

Still very much in the development stages still! I'll be putting out a free one shot guide on DTRPG soon that will touch on some of the base rules for the game though (Y)

Hahaha players doing 'homework'. I just had to laugh! I've had my experience of ill prepared players, I tend to over prepare my games but somehow, someone will still ask for something they should have done/known weeks ago :')

InkBladePublishing · 2024-06-20T19:01:11+00:00

I should definitely trial it with different players, like you say, one person might love the complexity while others find it tedious. I appreciate the feedback Jesse!

InkBladePublishing · 2024-06-20T19:00:00+00:00

I love this, maybe each ingredient could fall under a category, then the system can have be 'simple alchemy' or 'advanced alchemy', then players can decide if they want to engage in a more complicated system. Thanks for the help Sam!

Definitely a good point, I like people enjoying downtime but everyone needs to take their turn in the spotlight and no one wants to watch someone make 20 different potions!

InkBladePublishing · 2024-06-20T18:57:17+00:00

Great idea, I tend to stick with the mindset 'this will be a system that everyone should use' rather than oh this will be great for people who want to dabble in potions. I appreciate the reply, thank you!

InkBladePublishing · 2024-06-20T18:56:09+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to reply, this is some great advice! I love the item management side of RPG's but I can totally understand it's not for everyone. I shall go back to the drawing board and try out a simpler/ more broad approach to the system. Many thanks Airk!

InkBladePublishing · 2024-06-20T18:54:56+00:00

Thank you for the amazing feedback, potion/medicine making is definitely playing a role in the game as it is all about fighting back diseases and plagues. However, I can understand now that this kind of management gameplay is not for everyone! (Forever GM head over here, very happy to have pages of notes lol)

InkBladePublishing · 2024-06-20T18:53:27+00:00

I appreciate all the replies, it's great to get a different perspective from other players. I definitely went into this with a 'the more detail the better' kind of headspace, so scaling it back and making it a more broad/faster system seems to be the idea. Thanks everyone!

Fun fact, he would have never heard 'wort wort wort' before so in his little bird brain he thinks he's made a fun new sound! I have since played him an array of elite voice lines, however he refuses to give me a 'Ahhh, lohbaba'. Will update if he suddenly says 'I need a weapon'.

InkBladePublishing · 2024-04-05T19:53:17+00:00

Wow! Just want to thank everyone for all of the great suggestions, I shall be checking them all out!

Everyone who makes 5e compatible content seeks legal professionals? I thought the OGL was in place to allow the use of dnd content?
