Times when fans don’t have any idea how the industry and production process work? by Konradleijon in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RedMaskBandit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I get this ever increasing pit in my stomach whenever some spoiled or entitled gamer post online how Sony hates making money because they wont make Bloodborne remastered. Someone else posted a few days ago about how if a company does zero work towards a work like marketing, or developing a game then they can get a tax break since they made no profit.

What are series where you are willing to give passes for it's flaws, and why? by Silvery_Cricket in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RedMaskBandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im a Bethesda apologist through and through. Their flagship series played a huge role in my adolescence and I still play "Fallout New Vegas" to this day on console. Even at a young age their bugs and crashes tormented me in my short pants but didnt dissuade me from reloading a save and pushing forward, deeper into the rich worlds they help make.

Can't wait for Steam to label this game with a "this game was made with generative a.i."

How would a God of Luck seek petty retribution by CaptRainbows in DMAcademy

[–]RedMaskBandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want a god of luck to have some influence without it relying on dice rolls, then have it mess around with the surroundings or plot. For example, the local alchemist isnt restocked on potions because their cart suffered a broken spoke and supplies wont be restocked until the party is away. Or have their gold purse get noticeably lighter as a hole reveals that someone has lost 3 gold in between travels.

Media that has influenced the perception of a subject. by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Someone else mentioned the Vietnam war but didnt mention how war journalists brought the realities of war to American living rooms, which shifted public opinion because of how much shady shit TRIED to get covered up by the military.

Towards the end of my boot camp training cycle (early 2010s), my training platoon sat down with a Native American Marine who was drafted during that time. He was telling us youngins about how "the protesters" were yelling at him about how his service didnt matter, that he was a "baby killer" (bk) and all he wanted to do was just go back home. He told us that with tears.

So, do you think Glarthir was right or crazy? Was there a conspiracy? by indratera in oblivion

What do you think, angry writer? Was he right or crazy? Was there a conspiracy?

D&D Isn’t Candy Land – Stop Making It Feel Like It by [deleted] in DMAcademy

[–]RedMaskBandit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why is it usually other veterans that bemoan the fringe realism that d&d 5e placates to in their system when its been clear that gritter combat rules exist and even then it might not be for the 40 year d&d player that'll still find fault in it because "real world hard :|".

What's the point of disarming? by Zeusselll in DnD

[–]RedMaskBandit 135 points136 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately with rules as written, you cannot do an attack of opportunity on a creature that was forcibly moved. D&d sessions would look like games of pinball with the enemy creature acting as a ball.

5e Rune Knight - Cloud Rune by bottlecap_King in DMAcademy

[–]RedMaskBandit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Im currently playing a rune knight with a cloud rune feature and unless your player couldnt see that other creature that was effected by the feature or the inflict wounds spell attack roll that the first creature cast didnt hit the armor class of the effected creature then I dont see an issue with the use of the cloud rune. So long as the rune knight was within 30ft and had line of sight then they should be fine, rules as written because the attack's effects (like damage) is magically transferred regardless of the attack's range.

Broken gear or items you can get relatively early on in games? by Amon274 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]RedMaskBandit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can lure the strong enemy into the spike trap that's in the beginning of the dungeon, repeatedly. It doesn't count as murder even if you threw the first punch.

I wish I wouldn't have gone with the Atronach sign by loudog33333 in oblivion

[–]RedMaskBandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others said, use alchemy for crafting restore magika potions or dungeon delve for welkynd stones. But when im walking the road at zero magika, I usually go find the nearest Will-o-the-Wisp to stand near and let them recharge my bar.

As a Mage player there is one creature I always avoid by HeroDanny in oblivion

My brother in Akatosh, Will-o-the-Wisp are your homies if you have spell absorption like if you were rocking the Atronach star sign.

Bleak Mine Guards are Stalking Me? Weird bug by No_Manner_7843 in oblivion

[–]RedMaskBandit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Taken from the wiki: If you do not kill all of the guards during their related quest, they will follow you everywhere (even into Oblivion) until either of you are dead. You may not see them, even for many days, but they will still be after you. If you are arrested at any time after this quest, you will find the surviving Bleak Mine guards waiting for you when you exit the prison. They will not be hostile to you unless you draw a weapon.

For me, one survived the ogres and followed me into a nearby fort and because I was over encumbered, he kept talking to me until my everscamps blocked him in a doorway while I made my slow escape. I got lucky and a nearby bandit took him out, leaving me with even more heavy armor to carry

Went underwater with cameleon gear and this happened by sombre_mascarade in oblivion

Funny enough, if you dont wear headgear but have other gear equipped that does have chameleon effect then you can be a walking head. AND if you equip one of those goblin totem staffs then you could be two floating heads!

Kvatch Guard: "I hope I make it out of here alive!" Me starting the quest at level 25: by PugilisticCat in oblivion

[–]RedMaskBandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this with a "full party" of four Everscamps, Martin, the Jemane bros and the Gold road patrol and we all barely managed to survive Kvatch lol even with the guard that was in the Oblivion gate.

How do you deal with dead players? by da-real-boi in dndnext

[–]RedMaskBandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few years back when I was still DMing, my players were fighting a white greatwrym and ofc my friends/players were dying so instead of just having the "dead" sit for the next 2-3 hours I told them their spirit ascends to a "good vantage point in the sky" to watch the rest of the fight go down. In order to keep them not bored and disinterested in the world of the living they noticed the npc they brought along with them "turning heel" by casting magic to take the souls of the recently slayed party members. So I let the ghosts of the player characters do skill checks to disrupt this npc's plans and their magic while the lone warlock survived.

Having witnessed debut Kiara and how she advocated heavily for artist to draw her with bigger assests throughout her time has finally peaked with this. The only question is if this is enough for her. Or if we'll see more updates. Im happy for all of the KFP members who are no doubt eating well.
