    Zeitgeist Games Product Schedule?

    Hi Morrow, Thanks for showing some interest. Tried to post this when I saw the thread this morning, but couldn't!!!! We have been a little quiet of late, but we are hard at work. I will give you some insight into what we are doing. I will try to update the page to reflect some of these things...

    Calculate your own DnD stats

    The whole reason I play D&D is so that I don't have to revel in my patheticness! ;) Don't take my dreams away!!!! Dustin

    Paying for game sessions?!?

    Paying just cheapens the whole experience because it assumes that there is some tangible benefit to the "product". Let's face it, when you put money down you expect something for it. If the DM kills your player or someone else at the table ruins your experience you would probably feel ripped...

    How do you make a player play a normal character?

    Yeah I can understand.. I have been playing games for a long time now and it's funny that my group never thought that we were geeky or wierd (who ever does? :) ) When I go to some hobby shops though, the freaks come out. :) I mean that in a good way though. Some people really have no lives...

    How do you make a player play a normal character?

    I would say that there is an easier way to solve this than having a "sitdown". My advice would be to play along and let him take whatever character he wants to play. Then have this character have to deal with the way that the rest of the game world views his behavior. For instance, if he...

    Square and Enix Merge!!

    This is a good gig for both sides. Square lost alot of money, but still has great sucesses on the video game side. FF Online will be/is really cool. I have no issues. Final Fantasy is far too valuable to let go. Dustin

    eTools Patch and Source Code

    I have been following this thread for a while but not posted since the beginning. There are some obvious errors in ET, but it is basicly functional. The one point I wanted to make was concerning what level of technology a developer wants to expose to the end user. I have been a programmer in...

    Adjusting XP for high power parties

    The key question at hand then seems if there is to be an adjustment based on high attributes. Regardless of how a player gets an overall high attribute set, it stands to reason that it's not as difficult to defeat monsters with an 20 Strength or to continue to cast more spells with a higher...

    Adjusting XP for high power parties

    Well one thing I have noted with the people I have played with is that they tend to roll until they get something that they are comfortable with. This doesn't mean that they are playing all 18s, but it does or can mean at least one attribute at 20 and a couple of others at 17-18. With the...

    Adjusting XP for high power parties

    Hi Folks! I have been experimenting with an idea for a couple of months now and I still have mixed opinions on the subject. Basiclly my issue revolves around the experience reward based on level and not on the individual attributes for a character. I propose that a party where the attribute...

    What does Dave Arneson do these days?

    I spoke with Dave this afternoon and he said he was certainly willing to answer questions. Perhaps it would be better to organize a chat and then followup with the thread in the same way we did for Gary recently. Dustin

    eTools Patch and Source Code

    I all truth this could mean that they intend to open source the application. Shelving the source code won't do anything. Perhaps they might open certain portions. Either way, turning the source code over is really common when a product is finished. It's usually accompanied by a certain amount...
