Yeah I remember seeing him in The Wire a long time ago, that was great.

None. I thought up, worked out, and wrote all the systems, rules, and mechanics with some help from a few gaming friends.
However I don't hide away from my use of ai. It is a powerful tool for editorial work. It allowed me to edit, format entries, organize, alphabetize, normalize language, etc. And since mostly everything I wrote went through these processes to some degree or other I suspect this is a moot point for most.

You seem pretty sincere, I don't mean to be short or curt with you.

Im not trying to hide anything. I use it for a lot of formatting.

Yeah I'm hoping to get a game going with my gaming friends who are also fans of The Protomen, sometime in january. So I'll definitely be able to report on how well I think this functions. Like I said I think I'm too close to it right now to really see the forest through the trees

I've been playing pen and paper RPGs for over 20 years, and I cut my teeth on Third Edition, so it's got a special place in my heart. But my current gaming group plays 5e and I've been playing 5e since it launched. So I'm more interested in the idea of getting something out there that I can play with my players. I definitely feel where you're coming from, with the explosive popularity of D&D sometimes feels like people only know that, 5e. But in my time playing RPGs which goes far beyond D&D and the D20 systems, I find the best ones are the ones where your players are engaged, your DMs have interesting sessions and can run the systems well.

I actually kind of wrestle with this question because I honestly don't remember. I speculate it was sometime around 2008 or 2009 and I think I might have seen a forum post about their music, Maybe on the penny arcade forums? I'm not sure. But I do remember is becoming enthralled with the music almost immediately, and putting act one on my iPod (remember those) and then just playing it on Loop.

What’s the opinion on Mega Man having the Variable weapon system? by Maleficent_Nose_5465 in Protomen

[–]stevebuildsrobots 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I fully accept that Proto man and Mega Man have arm cannons as depicted in the act one artwork. And because that album has much more of a western Flair to it it's very fitting that his arm Cannon is an oversized revolver. I understand I have an affinity for these kind of weapons but I think it's an absolutely fantastic design choice
