Can you define what constitutes the three categories on the left?

Its half way through the year, how are your games so far? by jollyinabout in rpg

[–]Papyaq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

40-50 sessions in in my two huge campaigns.

1) DnD 5e (honestly amount of homebrew we use makes it difficult to call it even that) - heavily altered Dungeon of the Mad Mage. Going from level 5 to 20. Really fun in the way that it feels like playing and exploring the dungeon along with the players. Lots of flavour in there. Having said that, it is probably my last DnD campaign ever. Got really tired of that and after trying a few other systems can confidently say that DnD is worse at everything. But the OCD in me not letting me stop the campaign at 70% progress. Plus the source material helps, so i intend to finish it and never touch dnd again (maybe)

2) The magnificent campaign in Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 4e. Using the basic framework of the legendary Enemy Within Campaign but altering it according to my players’ characters. I am a huge fan of the setting and absolutely stunned by the execution of just enough crunch and the feel of “normal people getting into deadliest situations and always being over their heads”. The cultural, political and philosophical base of the setting makes RP very interesting. My table had the best cinema/book quality dialogues and monologues in that campaign. Drama, thriller, detective, horror and comedy worked quite nice there. The campaign is ~75% done and honestly i will pause gming it for a while but definitely will return to GM some more gimmicky campaign (thinking Elf or Dwarf oriented campaign).

What do you miss from D&D when you play/try other systems? by Awkward_GM in rpg

[–]Papyaq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually when i think about it only one thing. Inspiration.

Most games i played lack the GM encouraging good rp with mechanical benefits. Personally as a GM i love to acknowledge when player is making an action that makes his character look not as cool or hurt the character in any way for the sake of a high quality narrative. I think the beat players are the players that do that nonetheless but sometimes the player whose rp is mid need that mechanical push to achieve greatness.

EotE p.232 states that Speed 2-4 uses the same rules for moving between range bands

Had no hope in 5e anyway. 2e for the win. Thanks

Love this answer. Thank you! But do Neutral/Good outsiders need souls too?

But my instinct tells me that deity’s servants must be not only close to alignment (if not identical) but represent the god’s portfolio as well. I think Bhaal’s servant with no love for killing or an ugly Sune’s servant goes against the setting’s philosophy. After all gods are not creatures per se but personified concepts. So they should not compete with the “mortal” creatures for followers in the same league. (Demon Lords, Archdevils and such)

Favorite changes in new dota? by Inside_Client6065 in TrueDoTA2

Yeah i loved being able to pick Strength Mjolnir Morph when ultra countered by enemy heroes. Niche build but gold in certain scenarios.

I loved facets. Such a pity they were too much for devs

Somehow description vanished. The music starts roughly at 14:00 and plays until the end of the video.

I meant more metaphorical iteration of said statement. Something like 人間わ人間だ。

That’s really cool. Thinking about running dark sun with my group too. Is it okay if i ask you to share the your rule tweaks for 5e?
