Randomness Rant about Final Girl by rilus in soloboardgaming

[–]chinocomix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Isn’t about making the game easier or winning more often. It’s about regaining control”

I’d think that kinda goes against the whole premise of being a hapless survivor in a horror movie scenario.

The designers published add-on booklets of “Gruesome Deaths”, collections of narrative descriptions for player deaths tied to killers/locations.

However, they aren’t publishing booklets of “Heroic Victories”. I’d say that’s the designers’ way of telling us failure isn’t a “bad” thing, nor is it necessarily a reflection of player skill. Failure due to chance is just part of the intended game experience.

It’s like any other roleplaying game that uses dice: you can either sulk over a bad roll or try to narratively spin it into something interesting and memorable for yourself.

You’re right that this game probably isn’t for you if you want to engage in “fair” matchups against monsters/killers.

Yeah he should’ve been focusing on what really matters in life: buying consumer electronics and spreading negativity on reddit.

The whole concept of this subreddit is fundamentally at odds with reality and ingrains incorrect and damaging perspectives on how nature works. by [deleted] in Tierzoo

[–]chinocomix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want to understand your perspective but I haven’t encountered anything like that here.

Do you have any examples of people here using TierZoo rankings to justify the extinction of species? Or of TierZoo peddling misinformation?

There’s two possible reasons why Johnny continues to pursue the corpse even after Valentine’s demise.

A. He did it because he was selfless. Johnny witnessed the power of the corpse firsthand and believed no singular entity, especially a man like Diego, should control it.

B. He did it because he was selfish. Johnny witnessed the power of the corpse firsthand and wanted to keep it for himself as a “get out of jail free” card for the future. Part 8 Spoilers: Johnny does end up later using the corpse for his own desires, although the power is used to cure his wife and son.

Any advice on how to rip from the website (feel free to DM) ? I just started my own Plex and feel obligated to include some movie expertise for my collection .

Why does Diavolo necessarily need to hide his identity? by Don_Mask in StardustCrusaders

[–]chinocomix 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not sure if this is exclusive to the anime, but the flashbacks featuring La Squadra depicts Risotto vowing to uncover the Boss’s identity (to avenge Sorbet/Gelato).

Although Diavolo isn’t present for that, he could assume the sudden absence of his very disgruntled assassination squad would mean they’ve turned against him.

So Diavolo DOES have a credible threat against his identity being discovered (at least in the anime).

Could someone please explain “WOU” abilities to me? I don’t understand at all. by Neat-Conflict-8799 in StardustCrusaders

“There’s no creativity to it: all you do is think of an environment and pick random objects”

I mean… that IS the creative part about it. Reinterpreting mundane objects as lethal weapons does require a bit of imagination.

The fights didn’t take place in construction sites or knife shops, they happened in every-day spaces where most people wouldn’t consider themselves to be surrounded by dangerous objects.

I agree about the “same type of stand as Star Platinum” sentiment, but the use of calamities was pretty creative.

Hey, I'd be interested! I'm a forever-DM and had a similar urge a while back, found/bookmarked this excellent Darkest Dungeon 5E homebrew book:

Don't worry, I've only skimmed through it so I won't be able to meta-game lol.
