[QUOTE="Imaro, post: 9670517, member: 48965"] But these are also the rules used in high fantasy, techno-fantasy, and every other genre Daggerheart is used for... its not specific to a grimdark game, its generic to any Daggerheart game. Just to be clear I'm not arguing Daggerheart as a more narrative generic/but not really generic fantasy game is a bad thing, because that's exactly what I'm hoping to use it for... but I did notice it doesnt seem to be gettting the same level of scrutiny around how it mechanically supports other fantasy genres that the trad generic/but not really generic fantasy game gets... and Im wondering why. Ok so it has rule tweaks/changes to support a grimdark campaign... thats what I'm asking about, notgeneric Daggerheart but what exactly are the bolted on rules that support grimdark specifically. I don't disagree... but then I wouldn't consider Call of Cthulhu a grimdark game... all horror isnt grimdark But you can also choose to die... and this option of choice is, from what I understand, the generic death mechanic Daggerheaart uses.
