Worthless Bums
all my (non-solo) campaigns have been sidelined
probably not a good sign for all of our mental health
if someone made d10s that were actually good to roll i might be persuaded that percentile is better than 2d6 tbh
but that day has not yet arrived. also no percentile games actually make good use of All The Granularity
d12s are also pretty bad
i dunno why some d6 enthusiasts like their specialiszed doubled-up d12s that are d6s
that said i've only ever rolled those light plastic d12s that come in dice sets
theoretically maybe a bigger/heavier d12 would roll way better
"none of you start with hats"
brutal start to this western rpg lol
craddled
vomitted
spell check:
How do typos get in books?
if you try and google paizo's revenue the ai overview... just references this article lmaoooooooooooooooooooooooo
grips intelligence is wildly piss on the wall ai firm. they have a 2 year old youtube channel with 12 subs
it's not a weird phenomenon online rpg fans are hostile as fuck
as a group outside of dnd you're noticeably, significantly more bigoted and hostile to any idea that doesn't dovetail with your Chosen System
honestly probably the biggest thing that kept me in ttrpgs early on was traveller 1e and playing solo
otherwise i probably woulda wrapped up my 5e campaign and just went "alirght" and gone back to playing doom or something
Praise makes me cringe more than insults I can relate

just figuring this out, are ya
gonna try and tie up my cyberpunk red campaign
i said i canceled my ongoing campaigns but seems like everyone got their shit together and we can go out with a bang
"Games That Feature NO Damage Rolls?"
every rpg if you just use average damage
no it's not it's 70, they just decided to call them build points instead of general or investigative because why bother using your own fucking terminology
fuck me right
i think it's always so funny when people react badly to anyone saying "i played this rpg a bunch, and i found the players/community there bad/annoying/toxic"
way to double down
i'm not wild about hot lead
actually not super duper impressed with night's dark agents overall so far, but it's, you know, a workable system
i suspect a lot of people like it because you can just... play it like a cold war spy thriller without any supernatural elements at all (which it acknowledges)
there's just not a lot of connective tissue between the core rules and the narrative flavor
it has some very involved subsystems i haven't tried yet tho, like chase rules
i'll probably keep playing it, wrap up my little homebrew scenario, try to ram in their little crb demo scenario to see what's what unless i find something that ultra pisses me off xD
also there's so much nitty gritty bullshit to track, but somehow ammo and money are singled out for bogging down games
what about all your other bullshit bruh
i do like "you just get the clue" but that's just standard gumshoe theory stuff
not sure how much i like "you still need the investigative skill to auto-succeed" tho, because they basically tell you to make your pc group together and make sure all skills are covered
so like... what are we doing here, really? i cannot expect you to want to just auto-succeed all investigative checks, but also to split the party and gate pcs?
it feels very ivory tower in that regard
it's strange that the game's strongest hook, spy vs spy vs vampires, isn't front and center
real weird
"best i can do is force ghost"
me, looking star wars purists right in the eyes: *dumps traveller anagathics into your star wars*
- bums' review of night's dark agents
i'm an equal opportunity slasher flick director
i'll kill 'em even if they don't have sex or do drugs
$25 for 90 shadowrun books
still not worth it because then you're playing shadowrun (excusing anarchy)

Kale Slasher: KILL SLUTS
Bums: first of all, don't slutshame, second, that guy doesn't have a proper flashlight, get him first
*guys walks past wearing a shirt that says 'WHEN SHTF'
Bums: I changed my mind, go murder him first. HARD.
@DarkestKale can't have the final girl and kill all sluts, if all of them are sluts
also bonking zombies on heads with maglites is a bums tried and true tactic
100% of the time works 40% of the time
"You have been awesome at forensics enough this session, time to let someone else be awesome at something". That's just fine even if they don't tell you that's why they do it.
"You have had a minor fight, you are now no better at fighting than a random dude off the street" doesn't work as well.
@RogerBW @DarkestKale in theory having a shifting spotlight is good
the implementation leaves something to be desired, however
@RogerBW @DarkestKale remember how when black widow was introduced into the mcu she was some elite hacker
and then (at least through endgame, i didn't watch the other stuff) that was just never referenced again
director didn't let her refill
