[QUOTE="Kinak, post: 5918936, member: 6694112"] Lots of good thoughts in there and I'd cheerfully buy any game he designed on those principles. I almost always GM, so everything about wanting simple build options goes double. I want to be able to construct NPCs and monsters quickly so I can get to the juicy plot planning. And get the players through creation so we can work on backstory and get moving. I've wondered before how well it would work to choose Elf Ranger, get your basic stats, and jump in. Then, as the game progresses, choose your specialization and feats and skills and all that. I'm picturing something only slightly more complicated than OD&D character creations (you have to choose a race [I]and [/I]a class) with the specializations coming in stages after that. Maybe along the lines of the job system in Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. Anyway, this was a great article and very thought-provoking. Thanks for posting it. Cheers! Kinak [/QUOTE]
