You know, making it so I am no longer required to see your posts is not the punishment you think it is.

All I know is that the games on my shelf that have one or just a few books tend to get more use than ones (like D&D) where I have a whole library.

I think that as long as we can suss out what folks mean when they use a term, even if we personally disagree with that definition, we should just discuss the point, not the terminology.

Again, I am just guessing based on the post, but it sounds like there is supposed to generous gear, and since gear can be utilized by anyone, going "one more room" to get that gear is a viable choice because it might kind of be a boost without a rest, if that makes sense. Like I said, I am just...

Movie Aragorn.

I can't help how you feel or infer my meaning. If you don't like the term "intrusion" take it up with Monte Cook games. If you don't like the term "jive" take it up with Airplane.

I think it is clear from this thread, there is more nuance in the definition than you are suggesting. But that is kind of a circular argument, so let me just repeat: I acknowledge that the standard definition is largely negative, and that is way I use alternate terminology. And yes, I could...

I don't know why my preferences about the game I play would make you feel that way, but okay.

On Incredible Creatures vs Menagerie of Mayhem: I was going through both in search of adversaries and environments for my DH game, and I think Incredible Creatures is the superior product. I would love it is MoM was longer, but even ignoring that, the ideas in IC are cooler IMO.

It is probably a "me" thing: I tend to like one and done experiences, so I can try something new. it does not mean that HZD2 is not as good or better than 2, just that I don't need that experience again. That could be why I also bounced off OW2: been there, done that. Every once in a while a...

If enough people are using it that way, then it is a word with multiple definitions. That is how words work.

I think the intent is to make sure there is always something to support One More Room -- which is very much what you want. You want PCs to push as far as they can before deciding to bail. D&D, or even Shadowdark, does not generally do this well because there is often not enough downside to...

Fair enough. it's a peeve. I don't like that word. it is a synonym for "lie" and tends to poison discussion. Anyway, on the subject of characters having similar narrative weight regardless of their power level: I am generally ambivalent about such mechanics. they CAN work if everyone is in, but...

Love this game. one of the first games in a very long time that I actually finished. I started the sequel when it first came out but bounced off for some reason.

I should reload avowed. i got about 10 hours in before the companions annoyed me to death. Or go back to Outer Worlds 2, but it did not really hook me the first tiem around (after maybe 8 hours).

I really want to try those but alas I do not own a Switch. If only Nintendo released those for PC.

I think that is why you mostly see new adversaries and environments, and campaign frames. The work on classes and domains is HARD.
