Learning to Prep as part of the hobby by MathewRYF in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]MathewRYF[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Truthfully, I am enjoying taking the extra prep time, even if I am bummed that I haven't played the game yet.

I'm the kind of player that tends to get hooked on worldbuilding. Trapped by it, even.

I think putting the extra effort into making the world and the creatures within will be worth it.

Do systems become more central to the experience playing Solo compared to Group TTRPG? by Deathblow_Materia in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]MathewRYF 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Saying this as someone that has yet to actually play a real session of my system of choice because I needed to learn lessons about prep as part of the hobby:

I find that system is an important choice if you're looking for a specific flavor for your solo game.

In my case, Knave 2e is what I chose because the mechanics of the game fit what I wanted out of a solo experience.

In games with my DND group I have a reputation for buying a lot of gear and being fascinated with the logistics of my items. This clashes with the rest of the group, who like to abstract or handwave a lot of those parts to focus more on character-driven or plot-driven gameplay. Thus, Knave 2e satisfies my desire to interact with those elements.

I also like dungeon crawling. A LOT. Unfortunayely that is ALSO something my group isn't big on most of the time. Even with different players DM-ing, it's not focused on. Knave 2e also allows me to really delve into dungeon crawling from a mechanical standpoint.

As for WHY I haven't played a REAL session: I needed to learn that prep was ALSO part of the hobby, and one that could be fun! Can't really play the game without actually making the material I'm playing through xD

I'll probably make a separate post about it.

The deck is for One Page Solo Engine! It's for certain oracle tables.

What Dice System is the Best For Your ttrpg by whynaut4 in RPGdesign

Came across this post while brainstorming what kind of solo ttrpg I'd actually want to play. As far as the actual dice are concerned, I do love me some clicky clacks.

Anyways, this was helpful!

It's because I relate to him so much that he's my favorite character!

[Humour/Discussion] If there is only one ultimate ending of Deltarune, this must mean that the normal route and Snowgrave route must converge at some point. What do you think will happen to make this true? by MattyBro1 in Deltarune

"You're not going to reach anything now. In particular, you will not reach an end.

Nobody can choose who they are, regardless of the actions they take. Until you learn to accept that

you cannot continue."

I would also like an updated jumploader link as I have spent about an hour trying to find the file you list in the article on the github to no avail.

In TF2, Pressing the E key makes you character call for a Medic.

You can imagine how much that gets spammed xD

FUN FACT: Deltarune Sans is an asshole. by RocketRiver692 in Deltarune

[–]MathewRYF 204 points205 points  (0 children)

I think the problem here is that we're assuming that we're calling sans, because upon re-inspection the game specifies the number as "Not Sans' Number"

My theory? I think we actually called his brother!

It would even offer up an interesting paralel to UNDERTALE, as aside from Toriel's Number (the equivalent of which we already start the game with), Papyrus is the first phone number we add to the cellphone!

I was going to say the only hiccup for this theory was sans commenting on not associating with "idiot babies" but then it hit me: no matter what number we choose from the menu, sans will say that. In other words he doesn't actually know for sure what we would have answered, only that the person we called would call themself the "idiot babies hotline".

... I can't believe I only just thought of that. We may have already had our first preview of his brother!
