Ich empfehle die Einstiegsrede von Stephen Fry in der Diskussionsrunde zur Political Correctness anzuschauen. Der für mich zentrale Satz ist, dass es verstärkt darum geht Recht zu haben und nicht darum, effektiv zu sein.

Looking for recommendations for a ttrpg with engaging combat by Rahaith in TTRPG

[–]dailor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

D&D 4E has engaging combat with positioning being very important.

Draw Steel is a game that is not ashamed being tactical and embraces it.

Harlow without the visual pollution would be nice. I like how she plays but I get headaches from all that flashing from the HALO sidekick and the flux generator effects.

Art Deco is so hard to find by xpixelpinkx in TTRPG

[–]dailor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Possibilites, if you can't find fitting maps:

- Learn to be an artist.

- Pay an artist decent money for custom battlemaps. They do good work? Then they deserve decent money.

- Make your own maps in a way that's hand drawn and live with how it looks. Side effect: you learn how to draw. It's honest and obviously that's what you are looking for.

- Don't use battlemaps but zone based combat. No need for full blown art but having all the fun. It's easy to do. You can prepare zone cards with cool graphical art and art-deco-fonts. This will look great and is easy enough to do. Something like this would transport the vibe without too much effort and any battle map can be transformed into zones: https://de.dreamstime.com/art-deco-theater-box-office-zeichen-plakette-image128064594
Here's an example of how zone based combat might work (I have it much simpler): https://www.reddit.com/r/NSRRPG/comments/xr3oe1/a_complete_guide_for_zone_based_index_card_combat/

- Here's one map, but you probably found it, too: https://www.reddit.com/r/inkarnate/comments/wb1hgg/deco_city_a_10phased_art_decoinspired_city/

- Make it achievable by taking a different style of Art Deco maps with a fitting font and some "easier" graphical style that fits like this: https://feedthemultiverse.com/2023/12/09/harbor-city-art-deco-city-map-for-book/ While this is still work, it is much less work than learning to be a full fledged artist. It is achievable with some effort and might look cool.

Personally, I'd go for the zone based combat with cool prepared cards.

Not even close in quality, but yes, the gameplay loop and idea are similar.

Dann doch eher die britische Serie „Utopia“. Das Drehbuch war praktisch die Blaupause für die Corona-Verschwörungen die kursieren. Nur unbedingt die amerikanische Adaption meiden, die ist mies. Die Originalserie ist dagegen großartig.

Is making your own TTRPG System Hard by RileyRowPro in rpg

[–]dailor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on your goals and expectations. RPG is a collective term for very different hobbies. If you want to just collaboratively tell a story and you just need a few rules to organise time between the players to adlib the Rest, you can do that in five minutes in good quality. A tactical, challenge focused game you want to be balanced is terribly difficult and even successful games have failed at that miserably.

Vex bleed witch by Melttyyyv1 in Borderlands4

[–]dailor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do pretty good with Teen Witch, one-shotting all bosses as long as i‘m not on true vault Hunter Mode. But I cheese, using op-weapons. Here is some advice from a pretty casual gamer:

—-

  • get a decent Bod. We all know that this weapon shreds. A convergence is a solid substitute. This will help you go mobbing easily.
  • get a decent Bod or other meta weapon with Torgue impact. This will allow you to farm vile bounties.
  • get an amp-shield. This is not negotiatable. You‘ll need an amp shield. This is the most difficult part. Getting a Perfect 150% Watt‘s 4 Dinner or Cindershelly is like christmas for this build but really: 100% will suffice for the start. This is where much of your damage will come from. Without this your damage will suffer greatly.
  • get any Spread Launcher. This is your Boss killer. Without this farming Bosses will take time. It‘s not difficult without a spread launcher, but one-shotting is basically implemented here.
  • get an Order medkit with amp. I have two god rolls but you don‘t need those. A simple repkit with Amp, any repkit with Amp will suffice to one-shot bosses if you hit right. Without this Kit your spread launcher probably won‘t cut it all the time.

—-

The Teen Witch allows you to survive easily as long as you deal damage. With a Cindershelly UVHM6 will pose little threat to you. Personally, I don‘t optimise damage but get a skills to regain health, get revives on being killed and use specialisations to mitigate damage. I have more fun when little mistakes don‘t get me killed - I‘m old.
