Nickoten posted:I think dieselpunk pretty accurately describes Final Fantasy VII just from hearing it. This is the only thing I've seen it used to describe and now I'm convinced it was created to describe Final Fantasy VII. It describes, maybe, the first disc. After a while the aesthetic goes out the window and it's just normal Final Fantasy gobbledygook.

Cassa posted:Is there much of a streaming side for magic games? There is but it suffers from the overall complexity of Magic. Basically it's really hard to tell who's winning without deep knowledge of how the game works and which cards are in play. Things that would improve this, hand cams (so the commentators can see what's coming), perhaps a separate readable card text window every time a new card is played.

I don't think they even have the rights for electronic games for Dresden Files, I sincerely doubt Butcher would have handed those over with the traditional games rights. That's not even considering the millions of dollars that console development costs.

If you want to use the card game mechanics or the RPG mechanics you would get the Hat involved simply as a courtesy and to make things easier, but yeah they wouldn't be doing any of the actual work of building a video game.

I think there are Paragon Paths and Epic destinies that take you down the road of the Sorcerer Kings, but the Dragon is like a level ridiculous enemy intended to really challenge a whole max level party. If I remember in 2e they had a book all about the various physical transformations and how to achieve them and hitting Dragon was crazy hard since you needed to essentially destroy an entire nation to get enough sacrifices to start the transformation.

Some of those theories were actually quite good when taken as cautionary tales, just not in the way they meant.

Ghost Leviathan posted:I'm reminded of why TVtropes had its initial appeal; it presents a view of media that doesn't purely revolve around 'who would win' scenarios and technicalities but in which actual thematic devices, archetypes and story structures are important. Such a goddamn break from nerds who saw literally everything as a wargame and desperately crammed square pegs into round holes on a daily basis. Except now they're back doing that, except with Tropes this time.

spectralent posted:...mustard smuggling? Basically a GM wanted his game to be 'realistic' and so adventure hooks weren't just hanging out in taverns or on bulletin boards for PCs to find. He used the example of the PCs setting up a mustard smuggling racket as what he expected them to do instead of go to caves and kill monsters.
