-- What a shocking development, who could have seen that coming?

Just tilt. The day was bad enough but I'm stuck on Chest. So, it's either. 1. Not enough calories. 2. Not enough recovery. 3. Limited by arms? It's weird because my back is jumping up, and arms are getting bigger for sure. So? Maybe I need to go to Upper Monday, Shoulders on Friday, so...

Yes, but that's exactly the point. Having "plot points" not even as hard requirements but as potential, doesn't remove the scope for "play to find out" potential.

Sure, and understandably so. "We are walking to Mount Doom" is hardly a railroad, is all I'm saying. Having a Big Bad, or an early meeting with his Dragon or whatever... Degrees, spectrums, and all that.

Personally, I don't see how play to find out breaks just because there are touchpoints during a planned quest. I thought that was covered in the book even but I could be mixing that up with a blog or something.

The Evergreen.

But you didnt say anything about design. The issue is you called it handwaving, when that objectively is wrong. Handwaving comes up in systems without the framework and definition that is factually central to Daggerheart design. You can not like a design, there are things I dont like in...

-- Sometimes the answer actually is to work harder, expect more of yourself, and do better. Sorry not sorry.

No Gym or weigh in yesterday. Weigh in this morning, 177. Another 'huh?' from me on that one. More dust work today, about to lose it over the state of my place. Early call tomorrow, and hopefully the ceiling restore is done so I can...spend all day Saturday cleaning?

-- Hello friend Project Manager. No, I will not be following up on that, no its not my job, and no I'm not interested in being told what to do by someone I do not report to. Kindly, naughty word off.

Yes, to all of this.

Aetherdark has crew and ship combat. For what it's worth.

Missed this one. I think you really need to look over the SD book and if the above is what you want mechanics for, you'll realize pretty quickly the current core book isn't the right tool for the job. Maybe Western Reaches gets there, but that's going to be 2 full books on top of the core. The...

Literally just had that conversation with a PM. "You want to make yourself expendable, go nuts."
