I just left a con in Minneapolis. I meant to duck into the PF room to lurk a bit but never got the chance. I’ve only played it on Foundry

I hear folks say this but ive found it entirely the opposite. Every level up is easier than the last. The most complex level is one because it will inform all the decisions for the rest of the character's life. Level up is feat from a bucket of like 1-5 to choose from, add an occasional stat...

yeaaah, im so glad they didnt go there. I like the idea of a limited series more and more these days.

I remember thinking what’s up with their faces…oh it’s to throw off facial recognition and then it’s called out later in a scene by LE. Nice attention to details. I was pleasantly surprised by Steal.

Right, every time you say tier and why its gated just loses me.

Film noir…you know what never mind.

Oh Defiance had some potential but crashed out.

The game world in 4E having a meta explanation doesn’t really work for me. I’ll take BA of 5E to avoid it.

Sure, I answered no, but may borrow.

Not really no. I dont like the concept of Gods being people, and certainly dont like the concept of killing them. I know that is popular but my fantasy games are more down to Earth. I tend to make Gods more like intangible forces of power. If you learn enough, you can tap into them. All the...

Static baby!

ugh...why also in color???

I understand having Goblin cave and trog swamp and dragon mountain seem like it’s a real world in a progressive series, but it’s basically a sign post saying “must be this tall to ride “. it would be a railroad if you couldn’t suicide yourself at any point. While a scaling world seems...

Bounded accuracy

If world consistency is important I think scaling becomes an issue for world building. If you do t want world levels with PCs then you gotta make places for all levels at the start so it is consistent. Now with static like BA you don’t have to worry because everything is within reach. An entire...

It is a video game so it runs into the GM cant adjust the world (other than math) on the fly problem. A.I. might change this a bit, but presently that seems to be a limitation of video game-designed RPGs.

Pat of that is open world aspect of some of these games. They dont know if you are going to the goblin cave or the trog swamp first or second or even last. There isnt a GM to adjust and change things on the fly.
