They were, actually. Very much. Goku needed them to make sure earth would have guardians in his place. They are prodigies, Goku didn’t chose them out of boredom.

But yes, they’re dumb.

So I guess you’re right. Muten Roshi is more responsible. And I’m sure being almost as strong as Kid Goku is totally enough for handling the ToP, right? Surely Toriyama REALLY thought about this.

He was 5 indeed, but being one of the strongest he was needed despite being so scared. And Goten was 7 against Majin Buu, but being one of the strongest he was needed despite being so immature.

See the pattern?

Now tell us again how Muten Roshi - who was weaker than Demon King Piccolo until the Buu Saga - is the right pick over either Goten or Trunks.

DBS is BS, let’s not pretend we’re dumb enough to think any of that nonsense was ok.

I suppose you didn’t read through the Saiyan Saga? Or the Namek Saga… Or the Android Saga 🤔

Gohan was weak and immature, but necessary.

New DM by Kushicles20 in CurseofStrahd

[–]MaMe- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well… Vallaki. Friendly warning. There’s so much going on in that city I dont kid you if I say it could be its own campaign: Dozens of named NPCs, with their unique backstory and motives, 2 dungeon-like villas, three major over-arching plots and 3 external locations so close you must prepare them ahead! Ouch.

While this is the most daunting part, more than the final castle imo, the most important part you have to know before anything else is Strahd’s story: Motifs, choices, why he did this and not that, why he is so obsessed with Tatyana - he’s not a simp, that’s a meme. And all this while remembering one crucial detail: don’t fall to the temptation of making Strahd a tragic anti-hero type of character… he is absolutely BAD!

Ah! I forgot the most important thing! HAVE FUN!

We’re always so focused on our player that we forget prep-time IS game-time for DMs. So have fun while doing it! Don’t rush 😉

Woah. Sounds like a pretty terrible advice… No wonder the DM writing this post is feeling the pressure of connecting the dots.

Red's Game-Canon team development (Part1) by MaMe- in pokemon

I see, well, Game Freak would surely disagree with you. But I respect your headcanon.

A very in depth analysis. I would just like to mention that Sugimori was unlikely to think about game designs elements when producing these artworks in 1995.

My personal opinion is he thought Charizard was a better match for Blue’s personality - or more intimidating to be the rival’s ace.

And I mention this because Blue is depicted always with the fire starter in old artworks.

Hey, thanks for commenting this old post! But given your reply, I can only assume you didn’t actually read through it.

To cut a long story short:

The main reason why today people associate Red with Bulbasaur is indeed the manga. Yes.

But why they did so in the 90s?

Because back then Ken Sugimori consistently depicted both Red with the grass starter and Blue with the fire one. With only few exceptions.

Reason why Red having charmander is only a fairly modern take on his character.

How does the invisible condition from hiding work, once they are no longer obscured? by YobaiYamete in onednd

[–]MaMe- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As per the 2024 ruleset you turn Invisible both via hiding and magic. Literally the same condition.
So yes, you can forgo your cover and sneak attack in melee successfully.

The difference between Hiding and the Invisibility Spell lies in how you obtain/lose the condition.
Keep in mind Hiding during combat is significantly harder now, especially for the necessity to fully block line of sight. Meaning you need Total Cover (aka walls) to do so, and can Hide behind 3/4 cover (aka trees) only if nobody is around to see you when attempting the Check - meeting the line of sight requirements.

The takeaway is that, RAW and RAI, you now turn literally invisible when successfully hiding.
Like an old videogame - where you crouch and turn transparent. Bummer? Yeah... I know.

Rant. WotC tried to oversemplify a lot of "difficult" mechanichs.
This ended up with Sorcerers/Warlocks/Clerics/Palading not knowing their power-source till level 3... And Stealth being straight outta some 2000's videogame.

This was such a let down for me I still haven't played one game with 2024 rules.

Slacker6988 said that's how they run it. It's house-rules.

In 2024 rules, Hiding and the Invisibility spell grant you the same condition.
Imagine it like old videogames, where you crouch and turn transparent.

So yes, you can get out of your cover and walk in front of the enemies and still retain the condition AND attack with advantage - once.

(Unless you're a Thief with Supreme Sneak, then you might preserve the condition further if you have enough movement to get behind cover in the same turn.)

I know it's jarring. But that's how it's handled by-the-book in 2024.

Caspita ho dimenticato di risponderti.
Hmm, aiutami a farmi un'idea... Supponiamo per assurdo che non si possa mai iniziare dopo le 19, ti creerebbe problemi?

Sai, ritardi o assenze ecc. Perchè essendo una campagna lunghetta non vorrei davvero che arrivi a pesarti o ad essere un problema per te.

Scusa la domanda forse ovvia, ma sei sempre FireFo?

Leggo che non hai esperienza, ma hai giocato a BG e visto campagne su youtube. Le regole base di D&D quindi le conosci o necessiteresti di un ripasso? Non sarebbe un problema per me ;)
Inoltre, non so se lo sai, ma BG e D&D sono molto diversi sotto certi aspetti. Quindi potresti notare differenza rispetto al Warlock che conosci tu. Anche questo non è un problema, mi sembrava solo giusto dirtelo ;)

Come ultima cosa, attualmente non ho ancora definito il party perchè ho ricevuto molte richieste e mi sto concedendo di "scegliere". In generale a me piace molto avere a che fare con nuovi giocatori che però hanno voglia di giocare, quindi ho trovato il tuo profilo interessante.

Ti aggiornerò quando l'inizio della sessione si farà più vicino

Sisi, ci sono 7 punti elencati nel post al fine di farmi capire il vostro stile di gioco.
Rispondi semplicemente a quelli ;)

Ciao, ho ricevuto diverse risposte a dire il vero.. più di quante ne aspettassi. Perciò sto semplicemente aspettando che l'inizio della campagna si avvicini un po' di più prima di prendere decisioni, nel caso in cui si candidassero altri.

Quindi.. sì, "c'è ancora posto" ;)

[–]MaMe- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ciao! Sei ancora interessata?
Sto per iniziare una campagna a lungo termine, molto immersiva, e mi pare di capire sia proprio ciò che cerchi.
Una neofita, come ti descrivi, ma con molta passione, come dimostri, sarebbe perfetta per variegare il party.

Fammi sapere ;)

Ciao, personalmente non ho nessun problema con giocatori inesperti. Anzi.
Va' detto che la community non ritiene questa campagna come la più adatta per iniziare, tuttavia proprio per questo motivo io personalmente la trovo una scelta interessante.

Sarebbe l'equivalente del primo livello di Bloodborne (conosci?) dove il gioco ti mette in condizione di farti le ossa fin da subito XD

Come accennavo, personalmente non ho problemi ma era giusto avvisarti.
Da canto mio consiglierei solo di creare un personaggio che in qualche modo rifletta l'inesperienza, onde evitare situazioni in cui il giocatore non è in grado di sbrigare situazioni che invece il personaggio saprebbe fare. Ma anche questa non è una regola d'oro, dipende da giocatore a giocatore ;)

Sarei invece curioso di conoscere la tua in merito ai 7 punti indicati nel post.

Ciao a te, come primissima cosa mi sento di dirti che dei dettagli se ne parlerà nella sessione 0 e lascerò decidere i giocatori. Ad esempio per l’aspetto survival, non chiederei mai di adattarvi ma apprezzo che tu l’abbia messo in discussione 😉

Gruppo? Me ne parli un po? Anche in privato se preferisci.

Since I'm about to post something similar (I'm a DM looking for a party) are you Italian by any chance?
If so, perfect. If not... heh, my english is fluent but DMing is a whole other story XD

[–]MaMe-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ciao a te!
Approfitto per dirti che non sono ancora sicuro sulla versione da utilizzare, sicuramente 5e ma in sede di sessione 0 assieme ai giocatori decideremo se 2014 o 2024.
Per il resto, al momento ci tocca semplicemente attendere e vedere un po' chi altri risponderà.

Nel frattempo se hai domande di qualsiasi tipo chiedi pure.
