You should just run AD&D then, I don't think it's the quality of the system that accounts for the lack of PBP for it around here, just not many people who want to DM it over something else. You running it would solve that problem.

Hey, I just got the weirdest idea and I'd like to see if this gets any traction. There might be a homebrew in this:

So, John Harper's Lasers & Feelings is pretty much the best rules right Star Trek RPG out there, and the best thing about it is that it converts to almost any genre where you can easily see two poles that are used to define characters, right? So, you could probably use it for, say, the Cthulhu Mythos as Sanity (traditional investigative techniques) & Sorcery (knowledge of how things work under the rules of the Mythos and how to use it).

What if your character's place on this scale wasn't static but it was used more as a sliding scale? What if events in the game could push your character towards the Sorcery end of the scale (as your character experiences the mythos they lose sight of reality and start to lose their mind, which also grants insight into how magic works)? Strangely enough, it produces an effect that emulates the way Call of Cthulhu is traditionally played but also reinforces the narrative of going slowly insane until the only sensible thing to do seems to be to cast that spell you found in one of the old dusty tomes, because as your character slowly loses their mind and moves towards the Sorcery end of the scale traditional investigative techniques become much less reliable and characters need to rely more on supernatural tools.

I don't know anything about the Lasers & Feelings system, but the first thing I thought of when I read your post was Bloodborn and how some of the lore suggests how the Insight works in the world.

The two poles for a Bloodborne character could be Insight (high "madness"/low sanity/ability to do "magic") and Beasthood (low "madness"/low sanity/no "magic").

A normal human (and arguably the "best" place to be) would be on the middle of this continuum; balanced between Insight and Beasthood.

Bloodborne characters start with an Insight of zero. During gameplay Insight can be gained by consuming a Madman's Knowledge/Great One's Wisdom item, encountering a boss (A being associated with the Eldritch Truth), defeating a boss, opening up/discovering a new gameplay area (Eldritch location), discovering the truth about some NPC, being witness to an unnatural event, or killing another hunter associated with the Hunter's Dream (PvP).

As Insight increases, the player begins to observe hidden things (a doll comes to life, invisible creatures become visible), some monsters become more dangerous, and the player begins to have audio and visual hallucinations/visions that are relevant to the plot. This suggests as Insight increases the Bloodborn character is beginning to uncover the Eldritch Truth, go mad, or both.

The gameplay benefit to having Insight is access to a shop where the Bloodborne character can buy weapons, armor and items he has unlocked, by spending Insight as currency. Insight is also spent to call another player into the gameworld for Coop mode.

The downside to Insight is that each point reduces your resistance to Frenzy, and reduces the Beasthood stat.

This indicates that Insight is antithetical to Beasthood.

http://bloodborne.wiki.fextralife.com/Insight

Frenzy in Bloodborne:

quote:

Frenzy is a mechanic of Bloodborne. It fills up like a bleed or poison meter, and it lowers both your damage intake and output.

Frenzy works similarly to bleed in Dark Souls. When the Frenzy meter is filled, a large amount of the player's health is lost instantly. However, unlike the Bleed status, Frenzy will continue building up once you receive it. Because of this, you don't necessarily need to keep getting hit to Frenzy; simply getting hit once or twice can cause it. It will eventually cap and stop building up.

Extremely alien and unnatural creatures in Bloodborne induce Frenzy.

http://bloodborne.wiki.fextralife.com/Frenzy

In a tabletop Lasers and Feelings Bloodborne hack, we could interpret Frenzy as the physical damage a high Insight/madness stat does to the body.

In game, Sedatives can reduce Frenzy at the cost of Insight. The above description also states "Blood serves to calm the frayed nerves" and "Naturally this leads to a reliance on Blood Ministration".

So on the other end of the spectrum, a character with a high Beasthood stat would behave like a beast, being faster and stronger than a character at the middle of the Insight/Beasthood spectrum, and craving blood to the point where they are feral.

The lore and plot suggests that individuals with high Insight have the ability to call/influence/transcend the Great Ones as well as possibly having greater facility with magic.

As far as I know there is no gameplay mechanic where a high Insight increases the amount of Arcane damage a Bloodborne character does; but in a tabletop hack, you could require certain thresholds of Insight for learning spells or simply make the roll to cast a spell additive with a character's Insight score to indicate higher Insight translates to greater facility with magic.

The thing I'm unsure of is how would you incorporate a shop where a character can spend Insight into this tabletop hack? Would you incorporate it at all? What would the justification be?

In terms of Beasthood, the gameplay mechanic is described as follows:

quote:

Beasthood is a stat in Bloodborne that determines your maximum damage multiplier while using the Beast Claw or after using a Beast Blood Pellet. A higher value in this stat determines how high you can push your attack damage while these effects are active, but also reduces your defense by an equal amount.

Details
Beasthood has inverse scaling with how much Insight is currently held by the character. The higher your insight the lower your Beasthood will be, and less Insight gives more Beasthood.
Equipping one or more Beast Runes will increase the Beasthood stat.
Attire will also increase Beasthood, the Ashen Hunter Set have the highest stat increase.

Equipping the Beast Claw and pressing L1 to transform it will give your character giant werewolf claws and activates the Beasthood state, indicated by a light brown smoke effect coming off your character. This effect lasts until the weapon is transformed back or switched out. Every attack made while the weapon is transformed will fill your Beasthood gauge by a little bit, which increases the damage you deal with each attack but also increases the damage you take by an equal amount. R2 attacks and L2 attacks will fill the meter faster than R1 attacks.

Using a Beast Blood Pellet will allow you to temporarily access the Beasthood meter with any weapon instead of just the Beast Claw. Note that most weapons have a hard time filling the Beasthood gauge because they cannot attack fast enough with R1s to keep it from emptying, forcing them to rely on R2 attacks instead.

Filling the meter does not have any effect aside from giving a limit on how high your damage increase can go.

http://bloodborne.wiki.fextralife.com/Beasthood

So perhaps the benefit of a high Beasthood stat would be transforming into a werewolf(beast), berserker rage, increased damage, feral senses (increased observation) to stalk prey or the like.

Increasing Beasthood/reducing Insight in the tabletop hack could be governed by overindulgence in blood, imbibing a potent beast's blood, or relentless killing perhaps.

Pretty much this. I was a big fan of AD&D in the early 90s and while I wouldn't want to try to run it RAW I'd definitely play again. You could also pick up Hackmaster 4th edition, which runs nearly the same if you ignore the parody aspects. For all its compleexity, the non-hosed layout makes it somewhat easier to run than AD&D.

The thing with modern games that try to capture the vibe of AD&D is that they tend to focus on one or two aspects instead of being a big rambling collection of weird poo poo. I found that Torchbearer plays very differently but produces the same kind of stories that my AD&D games used to produce - where somewhat competent people go into a dungeon, get hurt, get lost, get trapped, get scared, eventually try to run away, and then some of them make it back tot he surface wtih loot and the whole thing's really tense.

I think a big reason for this is that most modern games try to have a clear focus nowadays. Even generic system. What I mean is that a lot of well-made modern games can have the author's intent summed up in a simple sentence and you can work back from that to see where the ideas came from. Likely, it's a backlash against the 90s and early 00s where the idea of rules as physics were a thing and now designers go for a "fruitful void" mentality where they don't have a rule for everything, but enough to cover what's important and have it push its intent and goal forward.

Yeah, for sure, and I like that sort of thing a lot more. That said, I do like AD&D the only thing stopping me from running it again is the fact that Hackmaster exists and does almost the same thing while being better laid out.

Like I said before, Torchebearer "feels like" AD&D in the sense of the same kinds of things happening in the world and to the characters. It captures my favorite part of the AD&D vibe. I'm a huge fan of Torchbearer but it doesn't "feel like" playing AD&D/Hackmaster in the sense of me, the player, doing similar sorts of things at the table.

More power to you for wanting to run 2nd edition - if you like it, you know your players like it, and you know that's the kind of game you want to run then it's the right system for you and your group. Full stop.

The only thing that confuses me are complaints about the minis/grids focus. D&D has always had that there lurking in the wings. Spell effects have a given range in feet/meters. Characters travel a certain number of feet/meters in a round. Where you are in the initiative order and where you are located is important, etc. Even a large number of 2nd edition adventures gave out a lot of maps with grids as well as precise measurements for things (which might necessitate a grid to resolve). Heck, even basic dungeon generation wants graph paper and squares for measurement. 4th edition just made it impossible to hand-wave and oddly enough, went back to the very origins of D&D (which was Chainmail and yes, a miniatures wargame) and modernized it.
