There's another unconfirmed rumor out there: Jeremy Irons will be voicing and motion capturing the Big Bad.

A list or link for these would be nice. I have no idea what's "currently published." The world clearly needs a Castlevania DRPG. I'm picturing Lords of Shadow, with lots of awesome channeled magic and "morningstar" (spiked chain) tricks. Dante's Inferno has very similar weapon antics (PS3)...

Yup! When I woke up that morning, I opened the House Treasure Chest. Guess what I found!?

Let's note that the human "footprint" here is for all human activity, not just writing. I think the logical conclusion for this is that ChatGPT should just replace all humans. That would minimize carbon emissions. "Or maybe you shouldn't bring me every piece of trash you happen to pick up."

Wait . . . now I see why they gave all the classes more stuff to do! If you're trying to do realism with 6e, then I commend your bravery.

There's a fundamental flaw in your group-task resolution when success is more affected by whether the group size is odd or even instead of whether the group is large or small. "Everyone knows that scouting parties should have two or four members. Three is right out." Focus on why the group is...

Cool ideas, but for the sake of harmony/non-kludginess, I wanted to basically remove a rule that called for quasi-algebraic work. My solution to the "uselessness" of attribute scores was to make them have direct effect on damage tolerance. Your metaphysical score is 15? Well, then you can...

Yeah, it smells close. I thought you referring to the typical discourse on BlueSky, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Quoted for troof. A video search for "skyrim dragon fight" will give a prime example of capitalizing on dragon attacks (for the dragon), but it won't yield examples of, "okay, you mortals are too tough, Imma fly away and let you win."

Sorry - how is that sound? Sounds like a lack of sound (if you'll permit the pun).

After some game design contemplation, I thought I'd come back and thank @lewpuls for this Kludge post. Examining my kludgy rule (posted above and below) has resulted in no less than three revised rules that could make my game more harmonious. Thanks doc! For the sake of discussion, I'll...

Well done! It reads to me like it requires a hefty level of supporting context, though, so while it might closely emulate the Atomic Blonde's extended-shot fight scene, it would be too much work for me. To put that into context (ironic?), most things based on WotC's SRDs are too much work for me.

There was a rule book in 1989, but it was cancelled after its first print run. /snark Whizbang's link is what I'd use to get started on the lore, and a serviceable, generic, fantasy RPG to back up the GM's decisions. Hmm... Fantasy AGE? I'd recommend against watching more than the first two...

That's a good point, but my copyright-1980 dictionary uses pages to describe what it is and how to use it, and knowledge of how to use a dictionary was much more common back then than it is now. Plus, dictionaries had been around for centuries. Let's add: some other books in the 1980s had...

Modos RPG kludge: your attribute bonus increases or decreases following a pair of formulae, based on attribute score. It's just clunky. The attribute score determines how much damage a character can sustain of that type, so the score can't equal the bonus or it would be too low. If the...

Sweet! Everyone knows that free, simple games are the best 🤓 How about telling us how it works?

Maybe wikipedia? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Role-playing_game You also might try the early sessions of Titansgrave on Youtube.

This is a noble cause. Miracle Max is on the job! A rowdy session of "kill the invading orcs and sink their three ships" is always fun. Just remember to spare their horcses and loot the fire water.

Soo... I wanted Adobe's AI to check my document, Modos 2 Free Edition, for personal metadata. The first step of that was to enable the AI Assistant, which promptly read the whole document up and down. Well, shoot. I wonder if it can play the game now? So, I asked. "Do you know how to play...

No, since all of the classes and subclasses are pre-multiclassed fighters, thieves, clerics, and wizards. I wouldn't even introduce subclasses to a new player. One enemy is too much. You might try a little Boromir-versus-hobbits fight (friendly sparring) to explain the combat rules. (Which...
