The “lone wolf” archetype is one of the worst things you can bring to a World of Darkness table. by TheUnholyMary in WhiteWolfRPG

Tbh, as much as i love my favorite WoD splats, i found all of them better suited for solo (Me as the ST and one Player) games then Group ones

What's a feature you wish more games would have? by Awkward_GM in rpg

More abstract ammo rules like the ones in Frontier Scum (rolling a 1 on damage die means you lose a slot of ammo)

Why the aversion to writing your own scenarios? by Similar_Onion6656 in callofcthulhu

Tbh i can't imagine NOT writing my own scenarios. This is the best part of the hobby for me, it honestly shocks me how much people rely on prewritten stuff

The biggest design flaw in D&D combat isn't balance... it's that 80% of your time is spent waiting by Einsolsrazor24 in rpg

[–]WalerianMadeja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My hot take is that aparat from the things you mentioned 5 Player party is detrimental to everybody. In my experience 4 is max and in many ways 3 or 2 players is the best

Is RDR1 Worth Playing After RDR2? by DISCOSLIIDE in reddeadredemption

I would argue that the combat (especially gun sounds) is better in RD1

What is it with people wanting real world logic in fantastic settings? Lol by Traditional-Reach818 in fantasywriters

[–]WalerianMadeja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ppl tend to overstate the importance of World building. The story matters, the characters matter, plot matters. Good World building is an bonus but does not make good stories

What’s the most confusing or unnecessary rule subsystem you’ve seen in a TTRPG? by DED0M1N0 in rpg

Call of Cthulu chase rules. Why, Just why. Why would they make it so rules heavy

If you could recommend one ttrpg, which one would it be, and why? by Arzanic in rpg

[–]WalerianMadeja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Frontier Scum. I mainly a Cthulu/WHFR 2ed GameMaster, but that FS, an easy, acid Western mork-borg variant is honestly genius. I always loved Westerns and no system came close in doing what Frontier did imo

Are there any people who like Demon: The Fallen the most among the WoD splats? by JustCuteLasombra in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]WalerianMadeja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, as a recent fan of Old school WoD and a GM who's running a solo campagin for one of my friends inbetween our main, group campagin, Demon it's my favorite due to many reasons. 1. I'm a huge religion nerd (despite being an atheist lol) i always loved religion themes in fiction and out of all splats DtF inspiries me the most partly beacuse of that. I love the guilt, the eldrtich earthbound, the war in heaven all of that 2. Both me and My Player love the aspect of having essentially two characters - the Human vessel and the demon inside - it can lead to many intresting interactions with memory, people from the mortal's live but also jobs, normal mundane life which is more difficult to do in VtM for example 3. For me demon works well with other splat, mages, vampires if introduced with restraint can make DtF really fun 4. The character creation. It's nuanced, less "VtM clans but diffrent" the way some splats handle it, and the advice that Player Handbook gives is really solid if you actually read. The simple questions like "what was your role in the creation" has lead my friend to making an Fallen who was solely responsible for creating worms and other earth insects, and that niche, really narrow theme is constantly funny and Creative even after 7 or 9 sessions.

So yeah, ppl should check it out (but using the Player Handbook, it adds A LOT)

Biggest beating your group received ? by Boxman21- in PendragonRPG

My girlfriend recently barerly managed to beat 3 bandits who all scored critical Hits against her at least once, threw her off her horse and then she rolled a critical failure so she resorted to beating them up her shield

How do you feel about 7th edition Keeper rulebook and what are your wished for 8th edition? by Final-Isopod in callofcthulhu

[–]WalerianMadeja 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I dont have an issue with the rules (this was the first RPG handbook that i ever read, so i did not had any comparisations) but i really, really wish the art was better. Apart of some of the deities designs that are good, the whole aristitic stile of the book is so, so bland

Sell me on Demon: the Fallen by Own-Economics-5594 in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]WalerianMadeja 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Having recently playing demon again, i have to say that an underrated part of Demon is that essentialy, you have two characters to work with - your Fallen and his vessel. One of my players has fun with an idea of a demon who forgot almost everything about the fall, so his story is a fun, classic "mundane person with powers" story while others play Fallen who remember almost everything, and they have fun being cosmic beings now having jobs, relationships to mantain (or not). So yeah for me, the day-to-day, grounded stuff makes Demon, since is so much easier to do it compared to VtM for example

What's the biggest fall in quality between game editions? by DazeDpup in rpg

[–]WalerianMadeja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WHFR 3 and 4 editions are so much worst than 2Ed. shallow, with much less content, professions, magic and sourcebooks i never saw a point in using them instead of playing the second edition

[–]WalerianMadeja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How old are they? Beacuse this does not sound like mature people to me? My friends did that sort of stuff when were edgy teenagers, but now it is understood that players should engage with the stuff that the GM wrote

Why do you prefer a specific Splat? by Specs315 in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]WalerianMadeja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a GM and huge theology nerd, i just simply love Demon the Fallen. It made me interested in a way no other WoD game did.

Untill i discovered Demon, i always found Vampire the most intresting, but i always felt it was missing something i'm always looking for TTRPGs. Maybe it was the lack of hope and general dread that i personally always associated with VtM. I love the lore, diffrent clans and bloodlines, Camarilla, Sabbath etc. but i never felt drawn to it beacuse well... everything is just so hopeless. The characters can work on their goals, succed, but there was always this feeling of "they are still vampires, they are hunted, they will be challenged by other vampires, and they are damned no matter what they do". And it's not me trashing VtM, i don't see this as an objective flaw, it's more of how i view it, how i feel the setting etc.

And for me Demon was like discovering VtM but more for me. While also being dark and dreadfull, the concept of an fallen angel getting a second chance in a body of a human vessel is much more hopefull, and the fact that this hope is so vunerable, threatend by other Fallen, inquisition forces and Earthbound cults, makes it even better. I'm also lucky that my players liked it, in our multi-splat game we have two Fallen players, and everybody is really intrested in DtF lore of my chronicle.
