what if, instead of dice rolls, we used some kind of advanced calculating machine that can simulate a fantasy world and the creatures therein to resolve our choices

BG3 has karmic dice turned on by default, I've heard conflicting things about how it works but what I was told was that it applies to you and the npcs and will start throwing successes if there are too many failures in a row and vice versa

I'm going to be sad if BG3 doesn't have a dramatic moment or two that switches to the real time choice thing like Disco Elysium did, that poo poo was mindblowing and the mechanic needs a bigger audience

they should do an RPG where instead of dice you use a deck of cards that you have to cycle through completely and you have to choose when to eat a natural 1 on a skill check

The cod 2021 game was free on psn recently and it's baffling that this poo poo makes money. Looks like poo poo, boring to play, takes like a minute+ to get into a game which tops out at teams of 6 for objective maps, and they're still using the same assets from 13 years ago. I suppose it's fitting for a game that champions neoliberalism

I love playing a tank in games but I cannot keep aggro in XC3 unless I’m the only defender. the other one always pulls aggro from me within like 10 seconds and I can't get it back unless they die or interlink
