(Sigh, I'd probably have to rank this with Dying Earth in "games where a lot gets lost in translation")
I guess we're not talking about the 2E splat books then ;)
For me the ideal version that only uses existing parts (i.e. no imaginary "ShadowCORPS") would probably be a very Seattle-focused 1E, setting wise, pure Bradstreet art (no Elmore, no Laubenstein), 2E rules without adepts, initiates...
Meh, with my luck it's probably going all in with AI art trained on a corpus of Laubenstein paintings.
"No, 6 fingers is a common production error of 3D-printed cyberware."
Wasn't it banded mail that was just Victorian amateur historians (e.g. Viollet-le-Duc) misreading effigies and the Bayeux tapestry?
(IIRC one of Viollet-le-Duc books in its translations had so much overlap with the weird nomenclature that I would've guessed that it played a direct part in the...
A weird sentence if two white-shirted people at the door would say it…
I read one of the earlier drafts, and TBH, wasn't too excited by it. I would've liked a "numbers filed off" 4E clone, but don't know exactly what to make of this Cypher-meets-4E-meets-PoW game. And the 4E books are still in...
Nah, level caps should be done by product. You're losing the valuable elf player market if they can't benefit from the new Lvl 40-50 book!
Which is also why "name level" 9 makes no economic sense. Way too early to retire! We have to postpone the Peter Principle and sell more Epic Adventuring...
That means he had enough time to find a better solution. If the "problem" demanded one in the first place.
Is there a "stages of grief" equivalent for D&D threads? ;)
I'd personally wouldn't want to push d20 that far, as there are other, better games once you try to go down that level of resolution. But it wouldn't be that hard to remove most advancements out of core classes and just do some things with either feats or skills, or have multiple "track" core...
I was aware, but this thread veering in all directions I might've lost my awareness on what branch we were on.
I got 1E OG UA after AD&D 2E, which made it look really weird and increased my "duct tape & spit & US school system" view of early AD&D back then. ;)
We're really moving in all kinds of directions here, but I like those kind of parties.
I quite enjoyed 3.0 when it came out, and the aforementioned Arcana Unearthed was a very nice spin on that (as was CoC D20, now I said it.)
Dragon Fist was great, too. Anyone remember that?
I just wish we...
Oh, the rules and the tiny setting guide have been free for ages. It's basically OpenQuest 1E, so very much a simplified BRP. I wanted to finally have a print-out, and filled up my order with that (my primary reason being the newly released FMC).
I like it a lot. It's BRP and a very blatant...
A Lulu order just came in
A nice LotR-in-BRP game, yet another OD&D version, and something in French, because I intend to learn that language and needed some milestones besides Asterix (randomly picked from a Lulu search, never even heard of it).
Also, after a long post-Brexit tax & customs...
The Pathfinder Adventure Paths cram way too much levels into one big theme park ride, but this time this might actually work, especially if you space it out a bit more and inject a lot of Hero's Journey tropes with some 80s ripoff trilogy vibes into it.
The first one, "Rise of the Runelords"...
Honestly, I think both when it comes to the rules themselves and their presentation, this is really all about the narcicissm of small differences.
Or to put it in meme form: They're the same picture. One with a horrible font, one with one column too many. Pick your favorite overrated fantasy...
