What's SataSupe? Is that some wacky Japanese Shadowrun heartbreaker or crime game?

DiamondSutra posted:Sorta! Not cyber, all crime action. Think of it as probably the closest RPG to "Black Lagoon" I can imagine. Rules focus on a few areas: Oh god yes I want to see/play this so badly. You had me at "Black Lagoon".

DRAKES N CAKES posted:Why do people keep posting this about Kickstarter? They don't charge you until after the time is up, so it only matters if you have money in your account at that point, and not when you make the pledge. No one cares when you get paid, son. They just want to feel like they're a part of something v  v

I want to make a Japanese RPG heartbreaker; what would people more knowledgeable in the ways of youseigemu (that's glorious Nipponese for elfgame  ) say are the hallmarks of Japanese system design? The things I've noticed are:[*] Emphasis on out of the box modularity [*] Relatively simple rulesets [*] Narrative focused, but with a AD&D chart fetish [*] Not necessarily about killing things and taking their poo poo [*] Fantasy Kitchen Sinks to a man (except for like, SataSupe) [*] Game and narrative are tied in the presentation of the rules, not just in play

InfiniteJesters posted:Good enough for craps, good enough for me!  I'm more of a Cee-lo kind of guy and 3d6 is a nicer curve but yeah, a pair of dice is iconic in gambling and game stuff. But no, I'm just Goon projecting it up. Taking bits and pieces I've learned from other contests and seeing if I can make something of it. And someone's gotta do a better job than Exalted/that godawful Fate/Stay Night RPG in bringing weeaboo flavor with workable mechanics. Plus, given Fiasco and hearsay, JTTRPGs have had no small hand in contemporary indie game development. Mostly though, I want a J-style game but can't be arsed to translate every time I refer to the rules.

I want to see SataSupe, mostly. The world needs a good Yak game.

DiamondSutra posted:Satasupe is indeed awesome, except its core system is a little wonky. Its subsystems on becoming bad, karma and obsession are incredible, though Do go on; a core system can be gutted or changed, subsystems can be salvaged and put into other things. Also holy poo poo new movie by Robo-Geisha mans.

mikeycp posted:This is something that I was also wondering, but I didn't want to be the one to ask... It's one of those three unstated things and the only one left unanswered: if it wasn't that it'd be Persona/MegaTen (Stretch Goal) or Eva (inspiration for the Yoroi class)

TK-31 posted:It sounds like the elements build up to be one hell of an experience, even if some of the mechanical bits are iffy. If nothing else it'll be a good thing to pilfer ideas from; like the 222 Things to do in Tenra, the "how to make the outside of game stuff fun" advice, the Fiasco-esque Act system and the worm users. Even if the game sucks, I can make cyborg samurai ninja Spiderman. That counts for something.

Ewen Cluney posted:That's Mononoke Koyake, and we're planning to make it a stretch goal. I have a first draft translation of it done, but there'll still be plenty of work to do on it. It's probably the best of the GSS supplements, and the one that opens up the most possibilities. (Though the snake, spider, and centipede elder henge in the supplement after that are really neat too.) Nothing is more neat than playing Santa Claus. Nothing.

The tragic thing to a sperglord like myself is that J-Tabletop games have such interesting settings tied to such questionable rules. I guess this is what FATE is for, but sort of the point of these games is running them as-is, with their rules quirks.

Cephas posted:How are people liking Ryuutama now that it's been out for a while? I'm likely going to be GMing it with friends and I was wondering if there are any overall impressions people have about it, or any pitfalls to avoid falling into with the system. I personally dig the gently caress out of its travel rules and think that any elfgame where journeys through the wilderness are A Thing should ape them. The game I got in was all new players and met intermittently at best, so I never really put the system through its paces. Dealing with Conditions seems like it would suck real bad without the Cleric equivalent, as they're the main way to remove negative conditions without making it to town, IIRC.
