[QUOTE="SteveC, post: 9226299, member: 9053"] I don't get this sense at all in Fabula Ultima. The GM is expected to collaborate with players, but has the authority you'd expect from a typical GM. I'm someone who loves 4E and is currently running PF2, so I enjoy the more traditional ttrpg mentality. The thing I found the most crunchy in Fabula Ultima is the combat, which has a lot of detail to it, and really feels like you are playing an old school JRPG. It's one of the things that a lot of RPGs might say they're trying to emulate, but this one actually hits. My suggestion is to grab the quick start and go from there. But, if you have some time to watch videos, the Knights of Last Call did a couple of videos on the game (which is what sold me). You can check them out on Youtube. Unfortunately my work doesn't let me browse Youtube (but Enworld? That's fine!) so I can't link to them. I will circle back to them tonight and post links, but you can find them with a search. Knights of Last Call started as a PF2 channel (and has tons of that content) but also talks about many other games. I highly recommend checking them out. [/QUOTE]
