    Spoilers Daredevil: Born Again (Spoilers)

    That was the tribute at the beginning of the episode. Really sad, but I don't know how soon he passed away in regards to the scenes.

    He didn't. He came closer to killing Dex than those cops.

    Spoilers Daredevil: Born Again (Spoilers)

    I watched the first episode. Even though two dropped, I had to stop after the first and digest.

    TTRPG Genres You Just Can't Get Into -and- Tell Me Why I'm Wrong About X Genre I Don't Like

    To me, Romance genre implies that the story is about that and that it's integral, not that rules are included. Rules are included for relationships in Apocalypse World, but no one would ever say it's a romance game.

    TTRPG Genres You Just Can't Get Into -and- Tell Me Why I'm Wrong About X Genre I Don't Like

    I don't like Silly games. I've tried them, and just don't like them. Toon, Paranoia, Tales from the Floating Vagabond et al. I don't know if this counts as a genre, but I don't like one-shots. My interest in playing is for development, and one-shots leave me cold at the point of what happens...

    General star wars talk/discussion/complaining

    I didn't agree with the mess part - just that it was messy like what they were trying to do. This conveys the idea of a ragtag group that shouldn't succeed pulling it out in the end better than in A New Hope, IMO. The Darth Vader scene was truly a horror movie in a capsule, especially when you...

    General star wars talk/discussion/complaining

    And this is what people get wrong blaming everything on Kennedy. She's not a creative type. There are few things you can blame on her- but not enough that this is going to have the difference that people are banking on. ... and there's this...

    Yeah, and I personally think this was one of the largest problems with the sequel trilogy. Just petty BS.

    To be fair, that's a very new development.

    D&D 5E (2014) Why Do Higher Levels Get Less Play?

    Depends on what you mean by 'monster'. I remember we took on Sauron with the Ring (long story) in ME, and he was throwing around high level spells and demolishing us.

    Different philosophies concerning Rules Heavy and Rule Light RPGs.

    I think that apocalypse world and it's ilk were created to remove the ability for the GM to fudge, for good or ill. You use other levers that have nothing to do with the randomizer.

    Different philosophies concerning Rules Heavy and Rule Light RPGs.

    It's not as if rulings should be what's driving the game in general imo. You follow the rules until they leave you at the edge and rule to get you back on track. I don't think of how the GM will rule when I try something. I just have a general feel of how they will rule when it happens. It's...

    Different philosophies concerning Rules Heavy and Rule Light RPGs.

    I didn't say it removes bias. I said it removes bias as an axis of inconsistency. If someone is consistent in their rulings and that ruling includes bias, it becomes a factor of the table rather than something that is interjected randomly. Let's say that my bias is to always rule in the fashion...

    https://owlbear.rodeo Not really ToTM. I view those entries more along the Alchemy or Role VTTs.

    Different philosophies concerning Rules Heavy and Rule Light RPGs.

    I think without bias can be informed by the other word in the statement - consistency. Rulings will be biased based on play style and a variety of other factors, just as humans. But once that baseline is established, consistency removes bias as an axis, IMO.
