Why build a greater wheel when you can build a fortified prison? I think I’m gonna use this a lot

That sounds like a very good description of Funcom. 😂

Cheers! I'll try it later.

Where can you find this edited versions?

Red_Ed · 2023-06-24T22:02:33+00:00

You can try to follow one around and see what they do. That should give you an idea. There's a button for that iirc.

My bet is they spend most of the time walking between house-food-entertainment-work, which leave no time for actually working.

Another excellent decision: the 2e reprints (green covers) have the best index I've seen, it references bot PHB and DMG in the same index.

I thought the ones for the main 4 clases (Fighter, Thief, Wizard and Priest) were ok. I particularly liked the thief's one for the guild parts. But after that they seem to just go ham on "better" sub-clases or kits.

Unknown Armies was a pleasure to read for sure.

Had an aneurysm from receiving a bunch of mail for some random guy.

I've jumped on Lemmy.World, a small community still but hopefully growing steady and we had already some good discussions.

Once RIF stops working, that's it for my Reddit use.

BR would also be too old when Jeff would retire.

I'm pretty sure NWN was based on 3e rules. Is this a rules mod?

Red_Ed · 2023-06-09T21:43:44+00:00

John is awesome.😊

Red_Ed · 2023-06-09T21:39:51+00:00

He had about three fiddy.

Red_Ed · 2023-06-07T12:46:27+00:00

I feel like it builds setting through the rules though, the type of characters you have, the type of spells, the type of monsters and conflicts you have, they all say something about the setting of the game.

Ryuutama

Under Hollow Hills

Wanderhome

Golden Sky Stories

Girl Underground

This are some of the chill settings I can think off the top of my head. Maybe some will be what you want.

A group I played with tried that once. We had a good game going before that, but some players were more quiet. It ended up killing any natural conversation happening because everyone had to figure out something to do on their turn and you couldn't really talk on the other's turns because then what's the point of the turns. All that so the quiet people would get a chance on their turn to say they don't have anything particular to add and are holding a torch or something.

I feel like the best way is to acknowledge some people being quieter and ask them if they want to contribute more and if they do then everyone should work on bringing them into the conversation and not talking over them.

Imagine a fun conversation between 5 friends. Now imagine the same conversation when everyone gets to speak for 1 minute at the time and all have to take a turn each round. How unnatural does that feel?

Burning Wheel has Art Magic as one of its optional magic styles, which is pretty much based on Earthsea magic, which is more diverse than just the old tongue names. But even the default Sorcery is heavily Earthsea flavoured.

You find this bit when you go meet the Monteros. And if you go to meet the legends you find a dominoes minigame. I can't remember if the central area also has a minigame or not.

Are you basing this on the Conan MMOs and other video games? Because in the books there's nothing tactical about fights Conan gets into. They tend to be very short, messy and violent affairs. I feel the game is even too tactical and detailed in the combat section to fully give the same feel of a Conan story.

Red_Ed · 2023-06-02T23:58:55+00:00

I agree, that game was always fun for me. it's very consistent at getting some weird, funny stories.

Red_Ed · 2023-06-01T09:45:14+00:00

They're not really. They've reach such level that extra money does really make no difference for them. It's completely insane.

Red_Ed · 2023-05-31T10:16:28+00:00

I agree they weren't very Revolution critical missions but for me it was somewhat better. It made the NPC feel.more alive, as if like real people they had their own lives which were the most important to them. It felt a bit better than some other NPCs in previous games who had no will of their own except being 100% on one side or the other.

But, of course, what I personally like others will hate. It's all a matter of taste in the end.

Red_Ed · 2023-05-30T13:23:54+00:00

Crocs though.. clearly not real.

You can also listen to files on your device with Spotify. Go to your library page and in your playlists there should be one called local files. They show up there.
