[QUOTE="SakanaSensei, post: 8971824, member: 7033162"] If I may, I believe you are misunderstanding my concern, or I did a bad job of properly expressing myself. My issue isn't with the mechanic. I was cautiously optimistic and at the very least intellectually curious about how they planned on using their dice in a tactical game. I thought it was really nice to see people talk about the pros and cons of messing with dice math and the game feel associated with the mechanic. Some of those pros and cons, talked about quite a while ago now, have even started cropping up in their playtests it seems! I remember early discussion talking about how "your stat equals how many dice you roll" possibly leading to stats leading to too strong of a swing, and lo and behold that seems to have cropped up in the playtests. My issue was entirely with Matt coming into the Discord, insulting some of his fans (I don't think many people are dropping 8 dollars a month out of spite, after all), and then doubling down on the insult in a Patreon post.
