[QUOTE="pming, post: 7757031, member: 45197"] Hiya! Having avoided playing the Witcher 3 (and any of the Witcher games, actually; nor read the books), I can honestly say...I'm intrigued. I bought the original Cyberpunk 2010 (box set) back when it had JUST hit the shelves that week...I was in LA on vacation at the time. I remember getting it back to my aunts place where we were staying and cracking it open. After a quick skim I saw just how dangerous and deadly it was...and how much a characters stat/skill makes a difference! Four rolls in combat? Is that 1, PC attacks, 2, NPC defends, 3, Roll location hit, 4 roll damage? Or are we talking "Living Steal" type where...1, PC rolls Aim, 2, PC rolls Focus, 3, PC rolls Environmental Effects on Bullet, 4, PC rolls trajectory deviation, 5, PC rolls general location, 6, PC rolls specific location, 7, PC rolls Angle of impact, 8, PC rolls penetration of armor, 8, PC rolls penetration of clothes, 9, PC rolls penetration of epidermis, 10, PC rolls muscle penetration interference, 11, PC rolls tendon hit chance, 12, PC rolls bone hit chance, 13, PC rolls fragmentation of Bullet, 15...do 10 to 15 again but for each fragmentation of the bullet? ;) Anyway, I plan on playing Witcher 3 (video game) first. Probably soon now. I've up until this point avoided watching any play through's or even looking at many screen shots. All I know is you play some bad-ass named Gerald? Gerrin? Gerard? And you kill monsters and magical beasts via sword and steel. And something about convincing people to have sex with you. This game, if using the same general rules as other R.Talsorian games and their "Friday Night Firefight" combat rules...yeah. I'm in! :) ^_^ Paul L. Ming [/QUOTE]
