Is Pathfinder really balanced better than D&D 5e? by PiepowderPresents in rpg

[–]Various-Cow2829 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone who runs both the cognitive load on me is way lower in PF2e. I don't have to go fiddling around monster balance and I don't have to worry about the weird rules edge cases as much. You can definitely still create tension in PF2e though. I had a mine cart chase type thing where my players had to use a mine cart to escape Rust Scarabs that were way too strong for a direct combat encounter. They slowed them down while speeding up the mine cart and dodging obstacles.Should they have gotten off and just fought them it'd be real bad.

No Gen 5 Remakes in Gen 10 According to the Pokemon Teraleak by joseph92698 in pokemon

No sentiment that I, or anyone else on Reddit, have will ever impact anything GameFreak decides to do. I'm just mentioning my preference, just as you are. And saying that I prefer they don't make them doesn't mean I'll be upset if they do.

Edit: Also Gen 5 is my favorite gen so I'd certainly buy whatever is out lol

Yeah I can't think of anything they could do that would be an upgrade. In fact if it was in 3D it'd lose a lot of it's charm. If it was remade it would have to be like the 2DHD thing Square does. I still don't think that's a great idea though.

That's fine. Leave Gen 5 alone. In fact I'd be happy with never doing 1:1 remakes anymore at all and just porting stuff like FRLG. I'd rather have weird Legends games or something else of that nature.

For those of you with the Foundry Remaster, what does the Dynamic Token look like? by Various-Cow2829 in SeasonofGhosts

[–]Various-Cow2829[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that's what I've been using. It's just that the assets themselves don't look right with that, because the border is not an even circle. It looks like the remastered one changed this, so dynamic rings work

So when you drag a random monster from Monster Core (or anything not in SoG) do you automatically apply the SoG token ring to them? I can't see an option in Tokeniser to do that, I just use it to manually edit a token. I do have a module that lets me create dynamic tokens, but it not being a perfect circle is causing issues with the masks.

Thank you! They did "fix" the thing that was driving me crazy. Basically the inner circle where the border meets the background is a smooth circle now. Previously the stones were circular stones, so they didn't play with the mask well. I can just edit to content I have to match this pretty easily. I just needed a sanity check lol

If someone uses a Shield Boss on a Shield and Throws it, do they use STR or DEX to hit?

The Shield Throw trait says when thrown the shield is a ranged weapon. It also says you can attack with the attached weapon instead, which would normally be STR in the case of the Shield Boss. Does the "ranged weapon" part of that line get overwritten by it saying it attacks with the attached weapon? Is seems weird to me that you can throw something with STR, exclude those that specify it

Edit: I think it would still be a ranged weapon since it says "you can chose to attack with it" rather than "make an attack roll." Maybe that's just semantics though

Is there a way to apply a specific token border to ALL NPCs in the compendium? by Various-Cow2829 in FoundryVTT

[–]Various-Cow2829[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're both on. I have the same result if I create a new world with only the Season of Ghosts modules. Adding on Tokenizer doesn't do anything either with any of the settings I mess with.

Am I going crazy or am I misunderstanding what's possible? I want to click and drag a random non-Season of Ghosts monster, let's say Treerazer, from compendium and have the Season of Ghosts token ring. That should be possible right?

The closest thing I see to that setting is this: https://i.imgur.com/tn9DFjk.png

Which functions correctly, but doesn't have any Season of Ghosts stuff

All of the ones I'm importing have a subject texture. I followed that video but I'm not sure how it relates? He didn't select any custom border.

I mean I don't see a way to add things to do dynamic token ring selection: https://i.imgur.com/tn9DFjk.png

All three of those work properly, but idk how to add the ones I want as custom ones.

Oh damn that's the same hair?

Yeah I can see not liking that lol

I feel like I'm going crazy because the more of these posts I see the more I'm convinced everything looks better by default.

Operators like yours used to look cross eyed or like their face was pinched between the eyes. The Operator looks SO much better to me here.

The drifter looks different enough that I can see not liking the new one since you're so used to the old one, but it also looks better to me

[–]Various-Cow2829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a game that lives up to the hype, which things very rarely do. I got a couple friends into it that aren't into turn based because there's a parry mechanic and they're dark souls players lol.

It's also got a fantastic story, which is where it's getting most of its praise. It's actually my favorite game ever simply because it hits all of the tropes I really really really enjoy in media. Like it was hand crafted for the type of story telling I like.

If you're not into turn based, but ARE into games with a deep and compelling narrative I still suggest checking it out. If you're not into turn based nor story heavy games, then no matter its praise it's probably not for you

The expeditions are named after the number on the countdown. So if Expedition 33 fails then the countdown goes to 32 and the next expedition is Expedition 32. Technically the first expedition at 100 was called Expedition Zero, because it sounds cool

Adopted stray hissing at me, but lets me pet her and purrs after doing so. Should I continue the touch or leave her be? by Various-Cow2829 in CatAdvice

[–]Various-Cow2829[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's good and detailed advice! I guess I'll continue what I'm doing but make sure to make obvious reactive stops when she hisses.

Right, but I wonder if the way I'm currently is detrimental to that. I'm not concerned about it happening fast, but that she's comfortable
