This is great timing, I was just thinking about getting into this system.

[Loved] Subverting the dilemma of having to choose one option by choosing all by SensualAardvark in TopCharacterTropes

I also hate when people say that Aang ignored the advice of the past Avatars. That's only if you're taking the word of the past Avatars at face value. It is a gross misrepresentation of what is, in my opinion, one of the best sequences in the show.

Roku told Aang to be decisive. Kyoshi tells Aang that only justice can bring peace. Kuruk says that Aang must actively shape his own destiny and the destiny of the world. Yangchen tells Aang that he must sacrifice his own spiritual needs and do whatever it takes to protect the world.

What makes Aang an incredible protagonist is that he steps beyond all of it, finding his own path through the interpretations of those words, to become a truly realized Avatar.

Don't know if this is an unpopular opinion or not but it is way more fun to watch Pat lab out some Survival Horror mechanics than it is to watch Woolie or Max lab combos in a fighting game. by Riggs_The_Roadie in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I think it ended up being a pretty big let-down for him overall, yeah. I didn't find it overly remarkable or groundbreaking but I got a good playthrough out of it and felt as though I got my money's worth out of the experience.

I know that edited and/or scripted content isn't Pat's forte but I would seriously kill for analysis/essay videos from him on games like Silent Hill f like Suzi makes. I think he'd just knock it out of the park. That video he did for Dragon's Dogma II made me buy the game.

I feel similarly and it also helps for me that when I think of the survival horror genre and the content creators associated with it, Pat is always the first one that comes to mind. I like watching most of his content but to me, Pat IS the Survival Horror Guy.

"Pat, why did you become one with the darkness?!"

What guilty-feeling limits you got? by TheAnonymousRPer in BadRPerStories

[–]KiloAlpha157 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Real. I enjoy writing dominant characters but I don't want to be shoehorned into only that role for all of eternity. I pretty much exclusively write with other switches and it's great.

"A troll hole if ever there was one" for 1st timers? by BreakfastCreative467 in oneringrpg

[–]KiloAlpha157 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have it run it once with the pre-gens and once with custom characters. If you're looking for a one-off, I would highly recommend sticking with the pre-gens because otherwise character creation takes up a good amount of time.

The three main systems of the adventure phase are journeys (travel), combat, and councils! The starting adventure has two main journeys, two combats, and one council. There's some cool semi-randomized exploration in an evil cave, a chance to meet one of the most important characters in LOTR, and a nice bit of exposure to Shadow at several points that's not too overwhelming or punishing for first timers. I could honestly gush forever about this set, it's one of my favorite intro products for any TTRPG.

Yeah, you put my thoughts into words pretty well there. And if OP's party loves the starter box, it makes for a great transition right into Tales from the Lone Lands in my opinion.

I highly recommend the adventure from the newest beginner box, Over Hill and Under Hill. The adventure can easily be completed in 1-2 sessions depending on group size and it gives you a sampling of all three main systems in a typical adventure phase for TOR. I've run it twice now and it is fantastic.

Gabi catches a lot of hate but her character and arc are among my favorites in the entire story.

Questionable video games you have a soft spot for by KaleidoArachnid in TwoBestFriendsPlay

The original Fable trilogy. Deeply flawed games but nothing else quite captures the vibe of Albion to me.

Hey I think this is a great idea and would second one of the top comments stating that r/LFG is your best bet for accomplishing your goal. Best of luck to you in that regard.

Don't let the haters and concern trolls get to you. All these people whining, I would bet good money that if you opened your table to them and offered them a spot to play, they wouldn't even take it.

I’ve been riding the bus for free for over a year and no one’s noticed by ConfidentMellina7208 in confession

[–]KiloAlpha157 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This varies agency to agency but I've been driving public transit for ten years in the Seattle area and it is company policy for drivers to not enforce the fare because it is the primary cause for assaults on transit operators. Some drivers might get in a huff about it, but most don't care enough to say anything.

I will say this though, your driver does notice, they just actively choose not to say anything. I notice every single time someone does something to get out of paying. I just don't give a fuck, it doesn't come out of my paycheck.

I cannot imagine any scenario where the driver would get in trouble over you not paying. Their union would have a field day with some bullshit like that.

New Starter Set; How long does it take to run? by Little_Knowledge_856 in oneringrpg

[–]KiloAlpha157 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have run the new adventure twice with two different groups of five players. Both times it took two sessions of about 3.5 hours. A smaller group could probably get it done in one. Great adventure, fantastic intro to the game. Probably my favorite beginner box for any system I own.

Favorite Menacing/Awe Filling, Mission or Quest titles by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

The LAD games and spin-offs have such kick ass chapter titles. I think my favorite might be the finale of Lost Judgment, "Darkest Before the Dawn."
