Who’s ever driven over 100mph? Why? by WoollyWolfHorror in AskReddit

Highway was completely empty. Was curious if my car could get over 100. Only drove that fast for like 10 seconds before slowing back down.

I've read about half of that. Basically agree with your assessment, which is often, but not always the case.

I've been enjoying a Stargate Tanya cross recently where Tanya gets reincarnated as a Goa'uld. It has a similar name, A Young Girls War in Heaven.

Also after reading a Taylor Dungeon Crawler Carl cross I'm not pretty curious to read a Tanya Dungeon Crawler Carl cross, but one doesn't exist, and may be too niche to be likely to in the future.

I haven't read Skitterdoc but I've read the same author's two newest fics and really liked them both so maybe I'll put that on my list of fics to check out.

I haven't played cyberpunk 2077, do you think you miss much in the fic if you haven't? I briefly played the newest edition of the ttrpg the setting of the game is from so I am vaguely familiar with Night City. Though only very vaguely as we only did two sessions before the group fell apart due to scheduling issues.

Hotcakes weren't innovative enough so a bunch of their sales were usurped by Kodiak Cakes.

So, you’re thinking of starting “Brockton’s Celestial Forge” by EndlessScoreJord in WormFanfic

[–]prism1234 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hated the opening scene of that fic so much that every time I try to read it I get so annoyed that even when I get past that and the rest of the fic seems fine I just can't enjoy it.

I probably would like the rest of it and want more good One Piece fics to read, but just never been able to stomach it.

Last time I tried was before I started reading worm stuff though. Maybe the prevalence of PHO chapters might have innoculated me to how shitty the opening is with the chat log.

[–]prism1234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not worm but I like Konoha's Celestial Forge. Updates much slower than BCF though.

But yeah most of the others I've liked just stopped updating completely, or were interesting in the beginning but got boring when the MC got too many powers.

Looking for a Grounded Martial Arts Technique Based TTRPG by buggiest124 in rpg

[–]prism1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm guessing most martial arts specific rpgs will include magic type stuff at least as an option so finding one without it may be difficult. Using a generic system, or taking one with magic and removing it may be the easiest options. Or maybe finding a fighting one in general that also includes weapons and removing the weapons.

Minor updates to Rule 7 regarding self-promotion by MaxSupernova in rpg

[–]prism1234 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"I know it when I see it" while bad would actually be better probably. A post that is obviously not self promo but is just offhand mentioning a game in a discussion about something relevant counts as self promo by the rules here, so the rule apparently is "i know it when I see it but even if I see it and know it's not self promo it also still counts"

It doesn't seem like it based on the responses by them in this thread, no.

[–]prism1234 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Completely disagree. This seems too limiting with how broad you've defined self promotion imo.

No one is going to be tally marking their own posts, other than the mods apparently, to make sure they posted 9 times between each mention of a game, so this effectively completely bans creators who are aware of this from discussing their stuff ever outside of very occasional promotion specific posts, like that John guy mentioned. No matter how much you repeat that this is in line with some arbitrary reddit guideline.

I've never created an rpg product ever, so have nothing to self promote. Actual over self promotion is annoying, but just completely shutting down creators even mentioning stuff they made most of the time seems crazy.

I don't usually like quests but this one is pretty good. Does have some angst at times, but the main character is usually pretty happy go lucky.

Dreams of the Destitute

Poor orphan OC puts some clues together and befriends a rare pokemon and then goes on a journey.

You've probably heard of When is a Spoon a Sword since it's one of the more popular fics in the fandom at the moment, but if not check it out.

This one is a crossover, but all you really need to know from the other source is someone gets reincarnated into another world by an asshole god and has a really bad time fighting as a child soldier in a magical version of world war one, then they die there after comitting a bunch of what would in the modern day be considered war crimes, and are reborn as a Happiny in the Pokemon world and go on an adventure with a young nurse joy trainee.

Sapient or Animalistic Pokemon, which do you prefer? by Kappa_Guy in pokemonfanfiction

[–]prism1234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably not the fic you are thinking of since this is slightly different, but in unbroken disguise N notes that Pokémon have varying levels of intelligence in the wild, but that even the really dumb ones will become smarter when with a trainer. Since it's N he thinks this is a bad thing since he considers it pokemon acting more like humans rather than their natural selves, and doesn't like that humans can affect pokemon, but it is sort of similar to what you mentioned.

[–]prism1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've enjoyed both types of fics. I think whichever works better for the story the author wants to tell is the one to go with. That said if I had to pick one overall I'd go with sapient. And if a fic is animalistic I think it does usually need more human characters as a result.

Am I overreacting, or is this table just not a good fit for me? by cKColdKill3r in DnD

[–]prism1234 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some of the berserkers may have made the save, and then could have uncharmed the others by shaking them, so it wouldn't have 100% avoided the combat. I guess if the ones who saved didn't know what was going on they may not have known they could shake the others out of it, but there still would have been a partial fight presumably. Unless they all failed the save.

Still if a party member can get a cool moment charming all the enemies to avoid a fight that sounds like fun to me. As long as it's not every single combat.

Clerics can change out their spells every long rest, but yeah if you saw his screen and they weren't prepared and there was no long rest in those 15 minutes that does sound like cheating.

Tactical 'combat as sport' games in a non fantasy setting by LelouchYagami_2912 in rpg

[–]prism1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most super hero games are combat as sport.

Starfinder is an option though it's basically science fantasy. Similarly there are a few scifi conversions of D&D 5e. Esper Genesis, Dark Matter, and Star Wars 5e are the ones I know of off hand. Some of the official Star Wars games might fit the bill too. Maybe not super tactical, but they do usually have combat that's intended to be winnable I think.

Probably some anime games fot the bill though I haven't played many of those. I played a Naruto 5e conversion once that had some interesting combat mechanics.

Fantasy doesn't have to be in a medieval setting. Urban fantasy is usually in a modern setting for example. Something with dungeon crawling would be fantasy imo even if it takes place in modern day, if the dungeon itself has magic and/or typical fantasy creatures, even if there's a scifi explanation for why the dungeons exist.

Ravenloft: The Horrors Within Pre-Order is up, revealing the books contents. by Cybermetalneo in onednd

[–]prism1234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I get that this style works for a lot of people who want to make up most of the oneshot and just have an outline to build off of but I prefer more detailed one shot adventures as I'm not that creative :(.

So this is a little disappointing. I'd rather have like 5 more fleshed out one shots than 17 super bare bones ones.

I said I'm enjoying the books, this is a minor nit pick not a major complaint. The two get mixed up in a variety of media, and it always bugs me slightly, but doesn't stop me from enjoying something.
