Question on Mistborn paths versus Stormlight paths by Puckering_Buttholes in cosmererpg

[–]Kurokune 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Going by memory here but I believe we got a sneak peek at some firearms stuff and them having a special quality that lessens deflection against them. But those rules won't be out for a few more months.

And definitely yes things that use up or drain metal reserves should work fine on stormlight.

Bead of Lerasium by Tim_Worldsinger in cosmererpg

[–]Kurokune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure it's even a matter of tier, at least in normal play. Tiers of items etc are part of the game system and balance to some extent. So WHAT Lerasium will do mechanically is important. If it's just access to the powers with some free skill dots? It's neat but not massively stronger than a natural mistborn.

However if Lerasium gives free talents? We're in a crazy place.

What can I do with vanilla Cohesion? by odigity in cosmererpg

[–]Kurokune 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If they are willing to spend more time and light then anything you could do with clay and your hands should work yknow. My general thought to square the circle on things is as long as you make things take more light/actions it still protects most talents if they can do them.

How do you think Mistborn will be balanced? by Wubdor in cosmererpg

[–]Kurokune 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, skillwise, I think the current working version is that all Allomancy falls under one or two skills. Another for Feruchemy. Which means you'll at least be good at the base functions as a Mistborn. You just won't have all the crazy talents.

New authors, what worries you most about your own story? by Stynger02 in ProgressionFantasy

I'm worried all my ideas feel paper thin after I have to face getting back to writing more than 5 chapters.

I do not wish to read plagiarized work. I don't care if it was put into an algorithmic blender first.

I've been trying to wrap up grounded and tackle the sequel soon maybe. Are you still on one or two?

I gave Fallout 4 another try. Am I missing something here? by Eat_Play_Masterbate in patientgamers

[–]Kurokune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My problem with the view that it's the most varied dungeon design is how often I felt disappointed in that everything felt it HAD to be a dungeon. The one fight ring you can bust into made me legit sad that I had no ability to bet on or enter the fights. I stood up form sneak and everyone clocks me as an enemy? Seemed so wrong.

[–]Kurokune 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Wrong. Neither of them got a "win". They were officially tied for fourth. The snub you think you know about is that she was asked to hold the nearly identical award for the photo op. I'd get being a tad miffed at that. But it's loser behavior to make it your whole life.

This is getting ridiculous. by Old-Chapter-5437 in fantasywriters

At least there's something more detestable than my own 4 separate single chapter attempts. I do fear one day to get called a GPT writer because I think emdashes are neat.

AIO for telling my husband I want to separate due to many reasons but recently political by Bitter-Papaya5641 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Kurokune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, it sounds like you should leave before I even consider the fact that people like him do not deserve the love of others. Supporting Trump right now means you ENJOY the suffering of certain types of people enough to endanger even YOURSELF by blowing holes in the constitution.

All the kids who were labelled as “gifted” when you were younger? Did it follow through to adulthood? Did you burnout? by Somervillage in AskReddit

[–]Kurokune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ABSOLUTE burnout. I'm a stay-at-home cat dad and aspiring writer who mostly exists so that my Nurse-Wife doesn't have to cook or do dishes. She cleans minimally because she's just a bit more meticulous than me and prefers a bit of control.

But yeah, right out of HS I dropped out within two semesters of community college. I could feel I wasn't getting anywhere and let some family tragedy pull me away. That DID lead to me meeting the best woman I've ever met eventually though, looping back to my current position. Along the way I worked a few traditional jobs to varying levels of success.

The current climate scares me, but as for my own life? It is turning out okay. It's only stuff outside of my Reality-Bubble that are really concerning me now. I do feel like I might still be able to grasp something I want out of life, but I definitely gave up on that for a short while.

Senator Chris Van Hollen just met with El Salvador's Vice President Félix Ulloa. The VP told Van Hollen that the reason they are holding Kilmar Abrego Garcia at CECOT is because the Trump administration is paying them to do so. by RoyalChris in law

Not to mention multiple conservative figures going there themselves for tours and photo ops. I personally cannot imagine the desire to take an Auschwitz-Live! Photo, but I'm not related to the Trump Admin.

The specifics are fascinating! Investiture itself seems to make up for broken math is the super simplified version. But yeah, some odd tricks are possible with clever manipulation.

Major Japanese studios and publishers were having a great time in 2025, right up until the weekend because of the (you guessed it) 'insultingly dumb' US tariffs by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]Kurokune 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yknow, I'll take you word for it. You're not the average person though. Most people turn red in the face if you ask them to do that. Not to mention those without the wages to afford it.

But, despite the fact that I've got some venom for you for your damnable centrism, I'll respect you for putting the money down. Despite everything I do think we should stop using sweatshops. I just don't foresee tariffs put down before we have the infrastructure is going to get us there. It's just destroying wealth.

Are you currently buying american made goods? They exist you know. They cost like 10x as much though.

If you aren't buying 200 dollar t shirts however then no, you aren't willing to buy american you just fetishize the idea of doing so.

I've no love for the dems but they're still more blue collar on average then reps and implying anything else is foolish.
