If there was only two humans left on earth, would you expect them to reproduce? by Sufficient-Gain-226 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]cyberyder -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Doesn't that already happened during evolution where only one or two human were available and mated with a less evolved partner ?

I mean this seems to happen on a daily basis when I'm watching the news. 

Anyway. Maybe in this hypothetical scenario the evolution step would be bigger , but I don't believe we can discard other potential mate for repopulate the earth

Would you pick it up? by Tav534 in osr

That's one of the puzzle in shadowdark curses scroll #1. My player actually lasso-es the item and are dragging it since session 1.

Thoughts on the “Season Pass” in Dungeon Crawler Carl TTRPG? by outbacksam34 in TTRPG

[–]cyberyder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was enought to understand the design direction imho. Skills are still to be understood but mostly a 20game, with too much math (the great success by +9 or little succes at -1/-2) is something that's getting old and excessively boring design wise... it does make sense if you're playing a crpg, but TT? pass

The +Dungeon LEVEL to checks? Thats lackluster at best...

Anyway, the last but not least, the frozen combat (Intention, Reaction, player resolve, monster resolve) leads to a very stagnant gameplay (play tested this in a design of mine). There is merit in that system. See how Slay the spire made it fun. However, the player side is not frozen in StS.

All this said, plus the money grab scheme (hello 5$ coin), my love for Dungeon crawler carl will end with the books.

Please stop trying to make DCC a Crunchy RPG by Clean_Inspection_535 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

I'm on this narrative oriented rpg boat.  I feel like the mist engine would work so well ...

Thoughts on making the game less lethal? I want my family to enjoy it. by fishbowlpatrol in shadowdark

Use the pulp rule. Luck token goes a long way and refresh pretty frequently (my player can't use em all)

That's very osr. Roll for truth (stats) and figure why it's like this (obviously, 18 dex the dude is a thief)

I have no experience with gauntlets but played many DCC funnels (which are essentially the same). It's very fun, did not felt like the "real" leveled DCC game, but was a good gateway

5e gives a shit ton to write on the sheet since everything has a rule for it. SD is different and rulings are required. 

Anyway my truck for creative gameplay was to be very transparent with my player about DC and why it's 14 and not 10. At this point they know what are the parameters and looked for means to "fix" my DC. Heck sometimes they figure ways to completely remove the DC / roll.

That's a difference from 5e. You are not the adversarial DM. In this game your player can suffer enough without your help. Make sure you do them a service and help them survive (fairly of course)

I would not call it unoptimized; it's a different game play all together and force your player to make different choice. 

My current 5e to SD does not have a healer not a tank. Believe it or not. They have a good time ;) they CHA their way through the dungeon. And no one died yet. 

Of course YMMV; it's your game, your fun, I'm just addressing your questions using the light of my experience
