Wrong... You're right about 4e, but 5e uses a d100 system skill-based build-point PC development process, and combat system that is based on their Aces & Eights system. While HM 5e does include standard fantasy RPG tropes (class names, certain races etc), the system itself is utterly unlike...

Tribe 8. Besides its horrific villains and eerie setting, it is set entirely in Canada, which doubles down on the horror quotient.

I decided I was over-thinking it. Instead, to use the gizmo you must perform a service for a descendant of the item's creator. Thus opening up the party for the performance of pointless and annoying deeds for unlikeable people.

Most, I believe.

Yeah, I have been gaming for 45+ years, and I haven't been a player more than a handful of times. I get bored or annoyed quickly.

Yeah, its iffy from a philosophy viewpoint, but I'm counting on the prolonged whining about not being able to earn money on those side quests to drown that out. My players extract gold dental work in every campaign that has gold dental work. So far, I've got feed the hungry, clothe the needy...

I'll check those out. The issue is how to translate them into side quests, but this is certainly a start.

Use the C&C setting with Hackmaster 5e (d100 system that has nothing to do with D&D).

OK, so I'm planning for a traditional fantasy campaign in a low-magic setting with a brutal game system. The campaign will be akin to the Staff of Seven parts. The PCs will locate a gizmo that shows the location of specific items, but before the gizmo can be used (each time), a PC must...

I personally welcome and support our AI overlords, and intend to collaborate to the fullest. But that's a personal choice. For now.

You had me at free. :)

War games in '75. I had real trouble with RPGs, because i kept asked for the victory conditions. Ah, the magic of SPI and Avalon Hill....

Have you looked over Harn? They detail every tavern on an island the size of Ireland. Every knight. Family trees of the ruling families. Every coat of arms. Literally hundreds, if not thousands, of pages of material, with more being added.

I prefer in-depth settings, with Harn being a p[rime example.

I only GM. I care a great deal about the world, Harn being a favorite of mind. The idea of random world maps are thus extremely uninteresting.

1. Neither. Plenty of free maps on the Net. 2. Extremely important. 3. Neither. Plenty of free maps on the Net. 4. Only play online, played VTT while F2F for years before switching to online. If its not VTT, forget it. 5. No. Plenty of free maps on the Net.

I started gaming in 1979, kid.

Years from now, when the documentary comes out about a brave game designer who abruptly vanished while attempting to expose the Italian Mobs grip on AI RPG maps comes out, we can all tell uncaring spouses 'I knew that guy!'. ;) But in seriousness, this is some shady behavior. I guess no market...
