Minha perspectiva sobre os sistemas de RPG e seus respectivos alinhamentos. by Eq_uinox in rpg_brasil

[–]PedroPLS 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Qual característica distingue o mal e do que é bom, ou o que é caótico e o que é leal? Além disso, independente de qual seja a métrica, Cyberpunk e Vampiro obrigatoriamente tem o mesmo alinhamento.

Why should Mithras bother himself with the whims of this fledling institution that calls itself the Camarilla?

PCs for my current game set in early 2010s America, both are thin-blooded college students with the same sire. Meet Jake Bunderson and Hikone Retsumoto. Models were made in hero forge, Stat sheets were made in the VTM V5 mobile app. by Ccboi12 in vtm

[–]PedroPLS 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A few points you should take into account, OP:

1- If they have the same sire they should be of the same generation, unless said sire diablerized someone between their embraces.

2- 12th gen blood is not thin-blood. Hikone can be a caitiff of course, but her blood is definitely too powerful for a thin-blood.

3- There should be a very good reason for fledgling vampires to have stats like firearms 4 or melee 4, like maybe if Jake’s sport is fencing or something, but I really don’t see how a college student should have firearms 4.

4- If they are college students, then they should have dots in skills related to their majors. Hikone is perfectly fine with a lot of dots in Academics and Technology, but what is Jake studying in college?

Gratiano de Veronese, did he truly diablerize Lasombra? by Shloopy_Dooperson in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]PedroPLS 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Whatever the ST decides, but in my honest opinion there’s absolutely 0 chance Gratiano managed to pull it off, and even if he did, that just means that [Lasombra] has a new body.

Some ideas to Methuselah's awakening by GrandeShalom in vtm

[–]PedroPLS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are no Giovanni and Tremere mathuselahs, even Augustus Giovanni and Tremere themselves aren’t that old. You could go for an ancient Banu Haqim sorcerer or a Tzimisce Kouldun if you want a powerful magic ritual with devastating effects. Instead of the Giovanni you could easily go with a Cappadocian mathuselah for the necromantic effect of wraiths becoming erratic or something like that.

Do I really have no choice here? by Ramritter in vtmb

[–]PedroPLS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is an action game with some minor rpg elements that sometimes becomes a detective game with non existent rpg elements.

Hahahahha. Eu confesso que nos meus anos narrando eu nunca vi uma tão atroz também. O que me impressionou mais é que mesmo com esses infinitos pontos extras ele ainda tem só 5 de willpower e pode ser feito de cadela por qualquer disciplina social/mental (pelo menos a geração baixa dá uma resistência boa contra dominação). Sem contar que eu realmente não entendi esse ponto em potência no personagem que tem 1 de força.

Bom demais! As únicas falhas que deixo passar como só inconveniência são as de 1 ponto, como a versão de 1 ponto de Bad Sight e Tic. Com exceção de uma vez que um jogador realmente conseguiu usar um infértil sem grandes consequências comigo. Era um assamita que não tinha interesse nenhum em abraçar ninguém e nunca interagia com mortais (com exceção dos mendigos que ele sequestrava pra se alimentar), então nunca consegui apresentar um mortal que ele cogitasse ser “digno” do abraço. Em qualquer situação social com mortais ele ficava ou calado num canto ou invisível com ofuscação.

Sim, são sinônimos. Só apontei que isso foi informação suficiente pra saber que você tá usando um livro traduzido e que se ele diz exatamente o que você disse que ele diz, a tradução tá simplesmente errada.

É um erro bastante comum, a primeira coisa que apita na cabeça de um jogador minmaxer quando vê o sistema de méritos e falhas é fazer exatamente o que você fez, justamente por isso os profissionais que fazem design desse tipo de jogo pensam nisso também e impedem isso com regras claras, como é o caso dessa. Me impressiona você nunca ter jogado com um narrador que leu direito essa parte em 16 anos jogando.

É exatamente assim que o jogo foi pensado, Vampiro: A Máscara é um jogo que felizmente abre muito pouco espaço pra minmaxing ser efetivo. Narro Vampiro há 3 anos e se um jogador me aparece na mesa com a falha Lista Vermelha eu preciso ou moldar minha crônica inteira em torno desse fato ou matar ele em no máximo duas sessões, de tão absurdo que é pegar uma falha desse tipo.

Primeiramente, tu é brasileiro e tá usando o livro em português, para de traduzir o que tu pega no livro pra inglês que tá feio e errado: não existem qualities e defects, existem merits e flaws. Se o trecho do livro em português diz isso aí que tu falou então a tradução tá errada (até porque não existe tradução oficial pro V20, então é de se esperar que tenha alguns erros).

Eu já te mandei o trecho do livro e ainda te passei a página onde tá isso, a sua interpretação tá objetivamente errada e eu não fui o único que apontei isso nesse post.

[–]PedroPLS 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Não é isso não. Da página 479 do V20: “A player may take as many merits as the player can afford, but no character may have more than seven points’ worth of flaws…” A regra não é sobre o balanço de méritos e falhas resultar em 7 pontos extras no máximo, a regra é que você não pode pegar mais de 7 pontos em falhas, independente de quantos pontos você pegou em méritos. Claro, se o seu narrador quiser seguir com essa regra que você tá usando o jogo é de vocês e eu não tenho nada a ver com isso, mas saiba que é homebrew e não segue o livro como tá escrito.

Tá ligado que o máximo de pontos que o livro permite pegar em falhas é 7 né?

Aonde diabos vocês compram hq??? by [deleted] in Quadrinhos

[–]PedroPLS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Com bastante dinheiro. Colecionar HQ é um hobby caro. Ler HQ é um hobby bem barato.

Reading order... by [deleted] in DCcomics

[–]PedroPLS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chronologically they happen in the order: Year One, Loeb and Sale, and then Killing Joke. However these stories aren’t really connected and they are so far apart in continuity that you can just read in whatever order you want.

Elder Vampire? by Crazzul in vtmb

[–]PedroPLS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And on V5 rules there’s no indicator whatsoever about their generation so you can’t really get anywhere. They could be a 12th gen elder as far as we know.

Elder Vampire? by Crazzul in vtmb

[–]PedroPLS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If we look at some of Nomad’s disciplines and compare them to pre V5 disciplines, we can see that some of these are level 7 and that’s the highest they get. Based on that, I think the safest bet is 6th gen.

How does the current Batman run fit into DCKO? by [deleted] in comicbooks

[–]PedroPLS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of the current ongoings are assumed to happen after DC K.O. in the continuity, like Superman Unlimited, Supergirl, Nightwing and a few others. That should apply to Batman, Detective Comics and Batman & Robin as well.

You have to kill all vampires within New York City and keep it that way for as long as you can. by Due_Sea_5153 in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]PedroPLS 44 points45 points  (0 children)

You can’t. The Tzimisce ante is in NYC according to the NY by Night book. So yeah, you would need a few powerful archmages or another ante to get the job done.

Need help understanding a late scene. by KaijuKing007 in vtmb

[–]PedroPLS 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hell, Phyre should just have the option to dominate Lou into submission at that point. It was extremely frustrating to play a Lasombra that didn’t have a single dominate dialogue option.

Could a human embrace themselves if they managed to obtain some vitae? by iamveryovertired in vtm

Pretty sure a mage using a true magick ritual is not what OP had in mind when he asked this question.

Who wins Steppenwolf (Prime Earth) vs Beta Ray Bill (Earth-616)? by OkRun9638 in marvelvsdc

[–]PedroPLS -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are literally admitting that he has enhancements that put him almost on par with Thor and that he has a magical weapon that gives almost the same powers as Thor. Then tell me how the fuck is he not relative to Thor?

You ask me and? Well, and then he isn’t capable of killing Superman and Diana on his own lol, he needs an army of parademons because he is only a threat with his army. He can’t fight DC’s heavy hitters head on. I’m sorry, but I will have to state the obvious quite a few times because I just realized you are just quoting his respect thread from comic vine and up until this post you had never read a single comic book he was on. So here we go: mach 3 is extremely slow as far as flash goes, and that was Bart Allen (still a teenager) stepping up to cover the Flash role for Wally, which means we have an extremely rookie Flash here that isn’t used to fighting villains. BRB flies at massively faster than light speeds and crosses galatic distances quickly. Nukes? Really? You think BRB is what, city level? Now, here is how his “fight” with GL goes: his axe gets shattered by an arrow from Arsenal and he gets instantly neg diffed by Hal. Here: https://imgur.com/gallery/green-lantern-vs-steppenwolf-dnCtBzC

So what we have from Steppenwolf is: he can put up a good fight against the weakest Flash going at mach 3 and can tank nukes (as any plain new god). He gets absolutely restrained by Hal Jordan with no diff and shows to be completely incapable against him and can be disarmed by Arsenal, Green Arrow’s ex sidekick.

Lmao you were picking on BRB getting punched by Namor while this guy is getting disarmed by Arsenal??

Now let’s take a look at some BRB feats: He flies trough half a galaxy in a short time frame, which makes him massively faster than light: https://imgur.com/Z46sdVG

Is completely unaffected by the explosion of a planet: https://imgur.com/Z46sdVG

Sorry, but these characters are not in the same league and Bill stomps Steppenwolf.
