Finally...Something my game system has right. In most areas where time, or preference may be a factor I offer both the original way and a streamlined version.

So are you suggesting that having multiple options, or ways to interpret a game's expression is desirable then?

Curious, what is your issue with that point of view? Do you feel they have too limited a scope to draw from?

I think going forward I will only respond to people who have something constructive to add.

Both responces are pretty fair. I will keep them in mind going forward.

This exerpt was taken from wikipedia Originality requirement For copyright protection to attach to a later, allegedly derivative work, it must display some originality of its own. It cannot be a rote, uncreative variation on the earlier, underlying work. The latter work must contain sufficient...

You seem to be uncertain on the first, and clearly avoiding learning the other two. Who I am writing for, ex Dnd players who are looking for something new and new players to role playing. As far as what has worked and failed, here I am...learning.... So I am not sure what the basis of your...

So then what your describing would be Derivitve works.... where you take someone elses idea and the rework it to either fit your own style or gaming system.

On the post you made there is a comment about swiping with permission. I think I understand your position, I used the Recipe referrence because I know there will be some overlap. That said, the intentional seeking of ideas to take for your own seems.... well let's just say I spent a lot of time...

That is the point behind the AI issue. And to be clear if you are looking at other peoples work to steal ideas for your own work, then Yes, totally. If it is not offered freely, in essence you are stealing other peoples ideas.

Yes, you are repeating my point on "Recipe Copyright", Recipies can not be copyrighted either, just like some aspects of your games design. But I am not talking legal loophole, I am talking moral compass.

I know this...this might break the internet but I feel a great sense of duty to add this comment. Pineapple on pizza.....keep following....Does belong on pizza, IF, you actually like it, and does NOT belong on pizza if you don't. Like mind blown right? I mean, personal prefference....pow!

So far this community is a lot more chill then others have been. For the most part I like the vibe.

I watched a game being played once...It started out everyone getting 1/2 thier normal starting character points. I am curious, was that normal?

Designers steal ideas? Openly? Umm where do I begin? I mean to some degree it falls in a legal "recipe copyright" zone...That I understand, and as someone who has copyright in multiple countries, I can say that openly admitting to stealing other peoples IP is an unwise move. I will refrain from...
