hyphz posted:I mean, my nightmare scenario for this was in a Shadowrun game when a player made a character with some ridiculous level of shooting ability - the highest the system allows I think; another made a mage etc. Since it's city/sandbox based I was having to adlib and was trying to go with the 'what makes sense' process but it was falling apart on that. Mages are 1% of the population, would a dive bar really have one on security? If your players are being lovely and making he worlds greatest sniper and a mage, dont have them be in a bar, you loving juggernaut. Have them be in prison and then have them break out or something.

grassy gnoll posted:Kinda poo poo, but I had a decent game of Infinity before I went to work today. Though something at my desk smells like deer urine, and that's not a typical library smell. If you're sitting at your desk while your desk smells of deer urine, I think I've cracked the case. Alien Rope Burn posted:I enjoyed MAGfest quite a bit, lot of good talking and videogaming. Tabletop scene there was / is pretty meh, but you can't have everything. THat'd be great! I am thinking about getting to a point where I can start to travel and run megagames around places. That would be rad.

Countblanc posted:Something else cool about 4e in a more general sense is how well it evokes theme via mechanics. You don't just say "kobolds are sneaky," or expect GMs to know how to make kobolds sneaky - kobolds in 4e straight up have an ability that allows them to slip away and be sneaky. They're sneaky by default, just by using a kobold's few abilities you're automatically going to make them be sneaky assholes, and that's super cool. This extends to a lot of stuff, like Dwarves being extra durable due to getting to take their second wind as a minor action. It's pretty smart. yeah but there's no mechanical difference between wizards and rangers therefore

Otherkinsey Scale posted:As far as being compared to the Orville goes, it does have the advantage of having nothing to do with Seth McFarlane. Yeah but you're swinging for a low ball there. There is some offensively awful poo poo in Discovery. From the idiot-plot (a plot that only works if everyone involved is an idiot), the loving warcrime committed in the second episode, the general loving visual ugliness of the entire production, the fact that we're told and never shown that the federation is apparently a lot of people doing good things, the Captain that straight up goes 'gently caress this seeking new life poo poo, I'm gonna explode this giant tardegrade to make my engine go faster,' to the total waste of the mirror universe plot line. Like- it is just offensively terrible, on an almost overwhelming degree. Sion fucked around with this message at 01:21 on Feb 22, 2018 |

Yeah. This whole thing has soured me on Rainbow Six loving hard. Like- I am amazed that a bigger deal isn't made out of what a loving sham the starter edition is.

Ewen Cluney posted:Ron Edwards is working on a seminar thing he calls "Finding D&D," where he basically makes the case for D&D culture being a religion of sorts. I'm still watching and digesting it, but it's really interesting. You can run anything in D20! I'm reminded of that roleplaying game for the awesome comic The Red Star. THat was D20 and was a loving mess.

alg posted:Cubicle 7 is finally previewing details of WFRP 4e. They've said it is close to 2e (which is excellent) but they've added some new features. So far what they have previewed hasn't included boxed sets with cards so it should be a marked improvement over 3e. It's also Old World before the end times It's weird to me how the actual tabletop went all End Times and there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth but everything else about the property is pre-end times.

MockingQuantum posted:I'm running a campaign for the first time in a couple of years, and I'm thinking of trying to digitize things a little more to cut down on the amount of paper, and make more resources available to players. How do people handle the "bookkeeping" parts of running a tabletop RPG these days? Are there good cross-platform character sheet things? Good DM/GM mobile or PC apps that let you keep NPCs, story info, text blurbs, and maps all in the same place? I could do all this in Google Drive, I'm sure, but I'd be interested in hearing about any other options that might exist. http://orcpub2.com/ is a pretty good character sheet creator and storage thing. Give it a poke.
