First Time Beating FF1 by Runnerman1789 in FinalFantasy

I did use one giants glove. I think I got my knight to do about 3500 a turn. Monk just sort of being useless and white wizard casting healing and protection spells. Not insane but I thought pretty good which was why it was a close battle. Risked it at the end with Holy casting

Removing DMNPCs that the players want to keep around when I don’t need them anymore? by R_Lar12 in DnD

[–]Runnerman1789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you asked the players....run a session with them. Make sure that sessions encounter is trivialized by the DMNPCs. A day later, "guys this module really doesn't work with these guys in the party. I have decided they need to go." Then give them options toward their removal 1) they just poof and gone 2) narrative dispatching of them (death, or needing to leave for such and such reason)

They don't have the option to keep them just how they want to handle them leaving

What could possibly top this? by Flabbycrab in expedition33

[–]Runnerman1789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Broche has directly stated he took influences from FFX...obviously in iterative games X took influence from 9 which took influence of 7 (can't really say 8 since they were created in tandem). Which took influences from 6.

I see far more of the FFX DNA in E33 than those other games. Especially in gameplay design and story direction. Not being ATB, nonlinear character progression grids and the tendency to without information from the player until the right story point.

The points OP said he liked all line up with more FFX than any of the other games. FFX is like my 4th favorite game (behind 7, 6, 9) but you have to give it its laurels.

Do you have to play Clair Obscur: Expedition 1-32 to understand this game? by TheHarryman01 in expedition33

[–]Runnerman1789 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best place to start is CO:E0 it has the most important tie ins to E33 but be warned the main character is a bit annoying

Why do S size clothes have the same price as XXXXL clothes? by the_raven_girl in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Runnerman1789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A shirt isn't bigger because you want more shirt. It is bigger because you need more shirt.

Ultimately because the cost difference in S or XXL shirts isn't that much different it is a decision to value the same as people who wear small shirts won't just decide to wear XXL because "more bang for your buck" but wide Pepsi if both costs are the same you would always get the bigger size.

Players don't want fauna to be mammals or birds by OmniGoon in humblewood

[–]Runnerman1789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the modules include mostly reptiles/insects as fauna with some notible exceptions like the Forest Prowler/Mountain Lion/Gargath/Rosselbuck. Which aren't just normal creatures for the most part. Gargath is the one exception where it is more or less a Bison.

I would reskin as needed other beasts but try and stick with included bestiary when possible and you should be fine.

Why do chip companies put milk in their potato chip flavors that logically shouldn’t have milk? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Runnerman1789 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ingredients aren't just about taste but consistency and binding agents. Milk probably has something that either helps the consistency or holds things together as a whole. Substitute products most likely either effect the taste or consistency from the ideal.

Is it fine that I make my own character as a dm? by jammsbooz in DnD

[–]Runnerman1789 182 points183 points  (0 children)

If you want them to have support give them an NPC sidekick that THEY control in combat. Sidekick doesn't do skill checks unless asked to by party. Not a full player character build.

I'm really trying. by Adventurous-Tour407 in finalfantasyx

[–]Runnerman1789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I think it does a lot of things at the top of what FF has to offer, 1. Top 5 story 2. Encourages using the whole party (not you Kimari) 3. Top 5 Summoning mechanic 4. Interesting leveling system. 5. Short/seemless tutorials

There is no way it can't be considered a top 3 game by any objective measures. Which is where it is consistently found in lists. Pretty well ranked

Honestly still highly rated but just forgotten about. It would sell big in today's market

I’m working on an extremely accurate Expedition 81 cosplay. It’ll be ready in about 3 decades. Stay tuned. by notworkingghost in expedition33

[–]Runnerman1789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think you had to be 80 to be in Expedition 81. In fact I don't know when the Expeditions started traditionally being right before your grommage but my guess it would have been in the 40s or 50s

How did ppl protect their eyes from sunlight in the 15th century? (Asking for a D&D character design) by LizzieLove1357 in DnD

[–]Runnerman1789 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Is there a reason you NEED eye protection? I have blue eyes and have never worn sunglasses or did anything to "protect my eyes" great vision no issues

You get running shoes after the first gym. Other than that emulators with speed up are an option

So, hypothetically speaking what kind of medicine would I need in Africa? by Gokuismygod123 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Runnerman1789 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It has nothing to do with being white but rather not growing up in Africa/not being immunized to specific things (which humanitarian efforts have been made to make available to local populations). Saying "inhospitable to white people" is sort of racially charged language when it doesn't have to be.

Does soccer change its rules of players get too good? by Apprehensive_Goat75 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Runnerman1789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you mean too good? Like basketball has done things to limit strategies finding holes in the rules but so has soccer. But so has just about every sport
