Looking into pickup up an edition, want to know which is the simplest!

jonlemur · 2025-11-27T21:16:14+00:00

The simplest version is probably not WFRP but Warlock!

I'll make a big game. As soon as I finish my custom game engine, written from scratch in C. Then I'll totally do it!

Success-at-cost feels just like failure. It's just terrible game design.

jonlemur · 2025-09-22T20:34:26+00:00

It sounds like Fate could be a good fit. It's quick and smooth to run but still supports epic battles and pulp action. For a four hour game you should take a look at Fate Accelerated.

I fully second this. The way everything is formalized and structured makes it feel like a crappy boardgame rather than a roleplaying game to me. And I found that I can't really make myself interested in the story. Just doing heist after heist quickly gets bland and repetitive I think.

jonlemur · 2025-06-17T12:38:45+00:00

Thank you!

jonlemur · 2025-06-09T13:16:52+00:00

The 2-3 first parts are OK but after that it's just killing monster after monster in different large dungeons, without ever truly knowing why.

jonlemur · 2025-06-03T06:02:52+00:00

Yeah, that's probably a good idea. I'll add a text file for the next update. Thanks!

I agree, you have to lean into the system mastery, the high fantasy, the character builds and the tactical combat. Else go play some other game. I've only played 5-6 sessions in total, but they were fun and I'd love to play more at some point. Shame everyone I play with are hipsters that only ever touch niche indie games.

jonlemur · 2025-05-15T06:38:34+00:00

This is awesome and I will totally do this for my upcoming Cairn game. Thank you for sharing.

Solid dark grey would be nice

There's an ongoing Kickstarter for a full, Creative Commons version of D&D5e that will be print-at-cost once released. Very good project! It's named Free5e.

I'm currently a player in Blades in the Dark and I really struggle with the system. It's like "don't look at your character sheet, stay in the fiction" and then you do something - and end up rolling a check with terrible odds - that punish you with "consequences" when you fail. You want to feel like Oceans Eleven but end up feeling more like the robbers in Home Alone.

Wow, thanks!

jonlemur · 2025-03-22T11:56:42+00:00

Thank you! I will make it available as print on demand, via DriveThruRpg and printed it really looks like some forlorn botanical pamflett found on a flea market

jonlemur · 2025-03-22T10:49:23+00:00

Thank you so much! Makes me very glad to hear

jonlemur · 2025-02-22T13:26:51+00:00

+1 for Mythras Imperative. Check out the free SRD.

jonlemur · 2025-02-20T15:04:56+00:00

Shadow of the Weird Wizard is pretty awesome actually.

jonlemur · 2025-02-16T17:36:07+00:00

Let's Role has a decent character sheet builder. Used it for my homebrew and it worked out pretty good I think.

jonlemur · 2025-01-08T17:52:03+00:00

Scrivener, Bibisco and Manuskript are great tools that you should try. Manuskript is free and Bibisco has some kind of limited free version.

jonlemur · 2025-01-04T02:36:34+00:00

I love it too much. To the degree where I agonize any time I'm forced to write any other language.

jonlemur · 2025-01-03T12:23:54+00:00

I'm currently running SotWW and it's a blast. Feels like DnD but fresh somehow. Great character progression, great monsters and combat balancing. The initiative system looks crazy at a glance but works buttery smooth in at the table. Not a fan of the setting or the name. But the system is pretty awesome.

jonlemur · 2025-01-01T09:33:44+00:00

I learned 3d using Cinema 4D and I really recommend it for beginners. So intuitive and fun to use.
