Serf posted:there actually is an adventure for sotdl called "the measure of a man" where the PCs take on a cult of macho dudes who are MRA parodies who all have poo poo stats and are led by a musclebound guy with a magic ribbon he wears on his dick. when he is killed, the ribbon rips his dick free and continues the fight, actually becoming a difficult encounter at the end of what is a joke adventure. if any of the PCs are incredibly stupid they can take the ribbon for themselves with predictable consequences

I'm running a Fallout: Kansas City game and I commissioned a map for Nuka-World Midwest. Anyway here's the map. Soda puns are my own.

Fatal is a psycho porn game that's retooled into a dark fantasy rpg which is the big difference between it and actual dark fantasy like shadows and lamentations. Its the Dances with Rogues of RPGs.

Elfgames posted:lol go gently caress yourself, there's some gross poo poo in SotDL but comparing it to fatal is loving garbage lol, no, random tables that describe "weird/hilarious" things that can happen to your genitals is literally a thing FATAL does, and is also something a lot of other, different games do not bother with for some unknown reason. The comparison is justified in this case, as it's something pretty unique here, my dude!

Please stop posting about people replying to bedlamdan it's almost as bad, he said without irony. I haven't gone into fatal and friends for a while and I've been planning to write up a Danger Patrol primer. Anything similar in there for "How to run this simple and good but poorly explained game" I could read as a starter? Is that even the right place for it?

Hadn't that many issues playing it, but the GM was a freaking lunatic who memorized the books so he was really helpful so that could be a factor.

I remember it having a ton of dice rolls for everything including rolling hitpoints at the start of every fight which seems insane to me, but I know that when I last played Spycraft with a GM that had all the gear requisition and combat rules memorized it was a smooth experience so I suppose that could make the difference.

Splicer posted:Don't be That Shithead please. "A is bad and B is bad so therefore they're exactly the same" They’re comparable, even if one is worse than the other. It’s something it does in common with FATAL, it is something creepy and weird in and of itself (especially since it’s a group activity), and 99% of games outside of Shadow of the Demon Lord, Lamentations of the Flame Princess, FATAL, Carcosa, and the worst White Wolf books have elected not to explore cringe edgelord poo poo as a design space. Is Trump identical to Hitler? No, Hitler’s still worse, but man it’s easy to compare them.

The new myfarog supplement is incredibly epic because it's set on a modern setting instead of fantasy land so the ultra racism and christophobia are completely out there

Mezzanon posted:I saw a few posts about eclipse phase in this thread and some questions about volume 2. My friend is one of the developers/creators of the game and he usually streams himself working on it a couple times a week. Would anybody be interested in a link to that? Wait, how do you stream yourself working on a roleplaying game? I've done that a few times and it's normally just sitting in front of a computer and typing away clickety-clack. I mean, I'm a hack loser so maybe it's different with the pros, but I highly doubt that.
