I don't really have a litmus test for generic games; most of the time, if I'm trying to run something I don't have a system for, I run Cortex... and Cortex isn't really a "generic game", it's a cave with a box of scraps. I do have a Holy Grail, though, for superhero games, which are as close to...

Would have been compatible with 3.X and PF1 anyway. Just translate the spell point costs and assign the class spell lists to Major and Minor access for each class.

Not great! My personal life has taken priority from pursuing my career for most of the past couple of years. I have got the general shape of things: spells and spell levels work largely according to 5e, and each spell level has point costs for free/fixed and minor/major; spells will be arranged...

Not gonna lie, I low-key hate this. The cartoons were created and designed as 22 minute commercials for the toys... with ad blocks built in to show commercials for other toys and breakfast cereal. But that's also what drove the cartoons to develop so much of the lore that future adaptations...

Yeah. Like, the really hardcore MOTU fanbase more less expects this the way hardcore TMNT fans do, but it's always a bone of contention until the new adaptation either proves itself or falls on its ass. A lot of it depends on how the rest of it feels as an adaptation, and a lot of it depends on...

Feel like I should note, that between these two passages... I'm also describing how I run D&D/PF. WotC, Paizo, and Rokugan d20 are "official content" for my games, mostly defaulting to PF1 for overlapping content; there isn't a whole hell of a lot of 3PP 3.X material I care for, but there's a...

Use the Grouped Skills rules from Pathfinder Unchained, but instead of "double proficiency" being equal to character level, it adds Skill Focus. Some feat/PrC prerequisites count this as the Skill Focus feat, while others replace Skill Focus with Signature Skill or Eldritch Heritage or something...

To their credit, that nonsense has been canonically stated in the descriptions of alignment–and other game mechanics based on it–from Gygax AD&D until the end of Third Edition, fully thirty years from 1977 to 2007. There's practically no way to criticize this without it being a personal attack...

I don't think I'm attractive by any stretch of the imagination, but I'm perfectly comfortable being naked in public; I'm not the one who has to look at me. I do have a bit of body dysmorphia/dysphoria, because despite the fact I am both very large and overweight, looking in the mirror makes me...

I taught myself to read when I was three or four years old, because my biomom would buy comics for me but wouldn't read them to me. So Marvel Comics. Bigly. DC not as much, and I didn't get heavily into third-party comics until my late teens. 80s cartoons. Ur-example, of course, was He-Man and...

I want to say AD&D 2e, but I switched up to 3.0 and 3.5 and PF1. I got  back into AD&D (well, BECMI + AD&D) afterwards. But Pathfinder 1e is one of those games. Never cottoned to the three action economy and it just seemed like a lot to relearn and... for the most part I always like 3PP...

Remember that Evil people are still people; they have emotional needs and personal attachments. This is even more important than remembering they have rational self-interests, because Chaotic Evil is often paired with a weaker sense of self-preservation. #NoLivesMatter There are two kinds of...

Be polite and address the behavior, not the person. Remember that if the conversation is longer than two words ("**** off") the goal of the conversation is to maintain the relationship by preventing the problem behavior from destroying it. The problem behavior isn't their fault, it's just...

Being persecuted by oppressive regimes for attending protests, whistleblowing, and promoting human rights/social justice causes. I'll not go into details here, and I shouldn't have to; to avoid speaking of contemporary politics, we're not two generations removed from this threat applying to both...

It seems to me that one of your proposals depends on the other, and that you're using the "for the children" to avoid talking about the danger your policy would be exposing adults to.
