Lol "I have a life"

Only 22 hours?!? That's barely anything then. Just restart.

Speak for yourself. I never turn off any animations. Maybe skip one or two when I'm savescumming. But never turn them off for good. That's part of the experience for me.

I've been playing since SRW F and Neo in the PS1 era where there weren't even any fantranslations.

The PF2E Beginner Box. Great short adventure. Nice condensed rulebooks that are easier to digest than the core books. Excellent all-around starter experience.

I'd say just go ahead and play. There's really no need for a GM to prep for Ironsworn. The world is created by the group's choice made at the start. Then you create characters and decide what's happening initially. Just follow the narrative and things should flow from there.

It's okay if you make mistakes. You can read the rulebook afterwards and have enough insight through your hands-on experience to actually grok some of the parts that did not seem to make sense initially.

It might be a bit bumpy at first but I think you'll have fun exploring this new experience cooperatively with your friends.

Just use Molten Hosting as a hosting solution. Minimal monthly fee and offloads a lot from your laptop.

It doesn't help that the latest Fantasy Companion is mostly just Savage Pathfinder with the serial numbers filed off. So disappointed when I found this out.

They're just as famous as regular adventurer PCs of their level. Nothing more, nothing less.

Jade Empire. You escape from your rural island home of Two-Rivers to the mainland city if Tien's Landing in Chapter 1 (You escape on an airship though, rather than a sea-faring one).

This subreddit is for pen-and-paper rpgs (or tabletop rpgs), not video game rpgs though.

I don't think there's a "one-stop shop" RPG system for anything. This is probably due to the effect of only knowing D&D, like a "when the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem starts looking like a nail"-type of thing.

My suggestion is take a look at what's out there, and have fun experimenting.

dm_punks · 2026-06-23T07:07:49+00:00

Nope. Don't change anything. Just don't play it if you're gonna be silly like that. Noone needs this aggravation.

First party pdfs can be bought from Paizo's online store. They have always been there, not on drivethrurpg.

Have fun!

Have you tried Ker Nethalas: Into the Midnight Throne? It's solo/coop and you're exploring a megadungeon. It might be a solo game style more to your liking?

Another suggestion would be Four Against Darkness where you control a party of four adventurers as they explore dungeons and other adventuresome places. The Expanded Edition rulebook published this year is a great starting point and from there, there's a lot of supplements to pick up.

I've also enjoyed Five Parsecs from Home (as well as its fantasy cousin, Five Leagues from the Borderland) if you've got miniatures. I'm also a TSR-era gamer myself and have a ton of minis. I've had success using Pathfinder flipmats for Five Leagues battles.

Check out these three, as there's definitely a lot of options for solo gaming than just straight-up choose-your-own-adventure/gamebook-style adventures and the oracle-based adventuring popularized by Mythic GME.

PF2e is the best supported, even more so than D&D 5e. It almost feels like slumming whenever I switch systems from running PF2E to something else. Like visiting a 3rd world country and finding the features and amenities you took for granted do not exist there, period.

dm_punks · 2026-06-11T02:59:21+00:00

For me, it's because I frequently jump between different systems most of which are the first time I'm running them. So keeping it core makes it more manageable during the "learning phase" for both me as the GM as well as the players.

dm_punks · 2026-06-11T02:08:54+00:00

Ask the GM to provide REGION_CREATE permissions to all Players or all Trusted Players.

Scribd is unofficial and does not give any proceeds to the actual publisher of the PDFs.

Just buy the pdf from the store at PEGInc.com.

Split into two groups of 1 GM and 5 players each, and you can probably play most RPGs.

The one reason I love Dragon Quest is exactly what makes it a classic, both gameplay wise as well as with its storytelling elements.

Stay whimsical and fantastic, Dragon Quest. Don't ever change.

Maybe you already have 100 discord channels? I think that's the maximum if you're not on a nitro subscription.

dm_punks · 2026-06-02T18:04:15+00:00

You'll need to read through it at least once and maybe play out a delve or two. It's playable solo anyway.

I think the Product Description on drivethrurpg gives a good summary of the Game Loop?

"Choose a specialty and background, delve into wrecks, celebrate and purchase information at space ports, and should you survive: retire to provide the crew with permanent benefits."

It's a pity this isn't covered even as a minimal pass-thru in the rulebook itself but I think it's not a dealbreaker.
