This says most of it, for me. The online experience is already a lesser one, for me, that I generally only use because it is otherwise not reasonable for the group to play in-person. Anything that makes it a hassle is going to push me away from that system. If, for example, my players have to...

As someone who occasionally likes rules heavy games (just not for ttrpg play), when I engage with them, it is because I want to do the thought and analysis around my choices. And, I'm sorry, but I am slower than a computer. For me, any rules that are getting resolved faster than I can do it is...

It think you seem to be defining "the industry" as everything other than D&D, which is still actually most of the market, and is/has been what most would call a "medium" crunch game for a decade and more. In addition to what Morrus points out, I think tabletop RPGs don't go so much for heavy...

Pretty much. Nitpick: If you bounce off the atmosphere, not only was your approach too shallow, but you were also way too close.

There was no "angle", or stated goal, in the OP for protecting game balance. It was pretty much, "Break weapons, so people who build for having specific weapons don't get the benefits they built for." No consideration of how this changes balance between character classes was given in the OP...

So, I foresee a gameplay issue in this. The difference between a "spiral" and a "curve" is really in how tight the curve is - so how stiff the penalties are. And therin lies the problem, which lies in human perception - if the curve is too steep, it is a death spiral. If it is not steep...

It is post-apocalyptic scifi originally built on the D&D engine. Mutants and psionics and stuff. It is post-WWIII, where the war has broken down all economic ties and supply chains.

My advice: Do not worry about giving an "exceptional" experience. Do not plan obsessively. Do not write up your entire campaign before your second session. The basic goal is not "exceptional". The basic goal is "fun", or "entertaining" - having a good enough time that they want to come back...

This. You'd need to be pretty specific to show how what you want is a "curve" and not a "spiral".

We are aware that our messaging around technical issues isn't robust.

Mod Note: Can you really not tell why we ask you not to make discussions personal? You're done in this thread.

I have not heard of any actions by the affiliates before he was preempted.

I am not so sure. It looks to me more like the original decision to preempt Kimmel was a snap judgement. This shift to put him back on then took days.

In stock value, not revenue. Stock value can come back.

Check to see if it is the same as one of the URLs seen in the other thread. Iirc, darjr can block specific Google ads by url, but if this one is different, blocking the others won't stop it.

When I got on the T to go to work this morning, that was a choice on my part. I could have driven into the city instead. I could even have gotten my employer to pay for my parking, no questions asked. Or, I could have ridden my bicycle, or walked. I chose the train. The main skew to the...

What they were doing was actually pretty consistent with other depictions of Vulcans in canon. Imagining that all Vulcans are like Spock would be the racist bit. Allowing them variation implies diversity among them.

Gorignak does speak, just as it is jettisoned into space.

Gorignak's only emotion is tranquility, found when you stop making such a racket.
