Attach a decent rumble pack and you have total immersion in your military/adventurer game!

Just like being in a real rock band!

Nope, fuck that, fuck genAI it is unethical by virtue of stealing to train and vastly draining resources to power slop garbage.

Television was a medium, communication. GenAI is not communicating shit, it’s trash sold on a lie.

Fair enough! I’m not going back to initiative order in any game I play for similar pacing reasons.

It does, I think. It powers “lair actions”, gives powers like interrupting turn sequence, making multiple moves in sequence. When the GM has a pool of currency players can see, there’s an unsaid acknowledgement things are going wrong/badly, which helps fuel collaboration in the storytelling aspect. I can say that someone fails an attack, but on a fail with fear they miss the attack AND leave themselves open to a harsh counterattack, or perhaps lose their weapon. I can do all of this off the cuff in D&D because ‘GM said so’, but then the players can feel an adversarial relationship instead of collaborative, which is so much more encouraged in Daggerheart.

All entirely subjective, and at its core it’s still heroic fantasy same as hundreds of other systems and if you are put off by rolling two dice for metacurrency, it’s likely not for you.

Sure, it’s not solving anything, but IMO it’s fun giving the GM a tokenified response currency even though you pull off a success. I’ve seen a fair amount of backlash, but just feel portraying the dice mechanic as Star Wars is miles off base, when it adds a narrative prompt for success/failure (D&D does this with nat20/nat1).

I don’t think any designer has ever said it is from Star Wars, and it most definitely does not use them as Light Side/Dark Side or imposed morality. It’s inspired by the Genesys rpg system of degrees of success/failure and has narrative effects like “Yes, but” and “No, however”.

Yeah, I’ll see if I can help make that happen. Decent enough movies to come out.

Goddamn it take an upvote.

Just thinking out loud, if you use another launcher app, do you ever have to use the start menu?

This is so weird because I installed OrganicMaps literally 2 days ago as part of a house-wide “fuck Google”. I’ve purged all machines of chrome, switched to duckduckgo, and changed my maps app. The “do no evil” has been cordycepys’d into a money fuelled corpo shitstain and deserves to collapse.

Fuck google.
