I think that worry is well-founded - if the players are acclimated to that style of play by experiences with D&D &c.Blue said:The problem is that I don't picture all downtime spent giving the maximum bonus. Part of me worries that there are many players who would always go for maximum bonuses because it helped them at the table, and the converse - players who follow their concept but because of this are "penalized" (by not having as big a bonus) and resent the rule.
What's your thought on the psychological aspect of it?
You could give each downtime activity both a bonus & drawback.
Or, you could have diminishing returns for doing the same activity repeatedly.
