Lemon-Lime posted:I'm backing it because it's a cool piece of design and it's interesting as a game that is explicitly about something. Yeah, this is one of those "more things like this should exist in the world" projects, even if I probably won't play.

It might also be that they back with their personal account and want to launch the project with an organization account.

Cthulhu Dreams posted:Or better yet ask people how many times they've played the game when they rate it and use that as a soft weighting factor in the back end. That would skew scores upwards, because people who dislike a game aren't likely to play it many times.

GaistHeidegger posted:They do specify that it's proportional to each other--the dice are all scaled to match and they bring up that 'most other' dice sets do not have the same relative proportions. The page specifically says that the d20 and d6 are different sizes, though. They certainly don’t have the same mass. I like that he explains that the dice will last a long time. I don’t think wear and tear is much of a concern unless you’re rolling onto a belt sander or something. I’ve backed some of his other stuff because I have a dice problem, but this KS left me cold.

JackMann posted:Monster Hunters' Club, a new Savage Worlds RPG meant to emulate 80's kids adventures like E.T., Goonies, and Monster Squad, as well as more modern takes on the genre like Stranger Things or the new It. I'm just about to start reading Tales from the Loop, which seems like it's aimed at the same sort of feel. How would you compare them?

There have been a few that did tungsten dice, but I don't recall a huge one, and I follow kickstarter dice projects more closely than I probably should.

Chill la Chill posted:They look cool, I give them that. I think the main "problem" (I don't see it as such) is that they require a different technique to roll well. Unlike the typical die where you just cup them in your hand and toss them, these look like they'll need to be spun by rubbing your hands. I'm actually surprised there haven't been more gimmick randomizers, since chinese fortune sticks would make for a fun randomizer. You don't have a 3-foot dice tower?

Echophonic posted:I like that gem d20. I can definitely appreciate the appeal of those sets, as another person who owns a poo poo load of dice. I ended up with an almost complete set of CoC dice from the KS a while back. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like that stretch goal will be met.

EverettLO posted:Strongholds and Streaming looks like it will take the record for most raised for an RPG kickstarter. It's been on the market for a little over a day and is nearly in the number two spot. I assume this is mainly due to the guy's popularity on Youtube because a fairly focused 128 page sourcebook seems like a strange contender. I wonder if that’ll be better than just porting the Reign organizational conflict mechanics to 5e.

Sinteres posted:Yeah, I got Gloomhaven and I really mean to play it someday, honest, but I kind of wish I'd started off with a little bit lighter game I'd have an easier time convincing my normie friends to play with me, and I'm hoping FFG or someone makes a new one soon that doesn't have to jury rig in co-op rules after the fact. I'd even be tempted to get the insanely expensive Batman game if it was actually co-op. One Deck Dungeons is sort of a diet Gloomhaven. Might be worth checking it out.
