2024-05-03, 06:09 PMIt's entirely possible that it only includes paladins who actually died in the process of defending the gate itself.. Which would explain why it...468 replies | 45253 view(s)

2024-05-03, 03:24 PMCool. Thanks for the background. That actually helped a lot. It does lead me to the position that there was little to no expectation by the players...366 replies | 16117 view(s)

2024-05-03, 12:15 AMThat does somewhat depend on the FTL methodology, and depends on what you are trying to accomplish, but in general yes. Ironically, despite the...210 replies | 17825 view(s)

2024-05-02, 06:56 PMLol! Yeah. I get that. To be fair. I'm assuming that this quote: "they are evil and in the city and are up to no good" is being run through...366 replies | 16117 view(s)

2024-05-02, 04:02 PMAh. Which explains my confusion. Not just my lack of knowledge of the setting, but the terminlogy used was incorrect to boot. Got it. So when...366 replies | 16117 view(s)

2024-05-02, 03:22 PMExcept that's not what they did. They told them what the Formori were doing "in their building", and not about some (seemingly unrelated) bit of...366 replies | 16117 view(s)

2024-05-02, 02:54 PMThey did give an answer. They told the Fae about the werewolves in their building. Ok. After re-reading, it was the fomorians in the building, who...366 replies | 16117 view(s)

2024-05-01, 09:15 PMOk. But which is the case here? I think it's number one. If the players had comprehended that "werewolves attacking the woods is something important...366 replies | 16117 view(s)

2024-05-01, 02:29 PMI don't think that's necessariy about the definition of agency though. It's about the fact that agency is not the sole determinant of...186 replies | 10592 view(s)

2024-04-30, 09:06 PMI think this discussion is veering off into tangents about broad definitions of the world "agency", and kinda missing how the word is typically...186 replies | 10592 view(s)

2024-04-30, 08:24 PMYeah. If we assume that ghoulism has existed the whole time, and that The Ghoul is the first, and that this drug is needed to avoid going feral, then...96 replies | 6356 view(s)

2024-04-30, 07:42 PMSure. But it's your analogy. And the analogy works better with the assumption that this is a wildfire and there is a concern about it spreading. We...366 replies | 16117 view(s)

2024-04-30, 05:46 PMMaybe it's the way you are doing it? I'd be a bit annoyed with someone telling me what square I should move to as well. Note the difference...366 replies | 16117 view(s)

2024-04-30, 02:02 PMYeah. It's not just about what people may criticize for. I think that's definitely something to try to avoid (when the criticisms are realistic and...186 replies | 10592 view(s)

2024-04-29, 08:50 PMIn this context, they are though. Remember, there is a sequence of data->conclusion sets going on here. Each conclusion in the sequences becomes the...366 replies | 16117 view(s)

2024-04-29, 06:25 PMI thnk you are still splitting semantic hairs here: Mistaken: wrong in one's opinion or judgment. Misunderstand: fail to interpret or...366 replies | 16117 view(s)

2024-04-29, 04:31 PMWe are in complete agreement on that. IMO, player agency exists in the realm of choices made by the player, with regard to character choices/actions,...186 replies | 10592 view(s)

2024-04-29, 03:51 PMYeah. It is strange and makes no sense for that to be their reaction. What does make sense is if, in resopnse to them discovering "the truth", the...96 replies | 6356 view(s)

2024-04-29, 12:50 PMRight. This is why I was cautioning about GMs trying to hard to customize loot (or other things in the game) to what they think the player wants for...186 replies | 10592 view(s)

2024-04-26, 05:36 PMRight. And in either case, the GM stepping out of NPC character for a moment, putting on their GM hat and asking the players "Are you guys...366 replies | 16117 view(s)

2024-04-26, 03:44 PMI don't think that's the entirety of the issue though. There is the concept of player agency at build time (which, as discussed is important). But...186 replies | 10592 view(s)

2024-04-26, 01:00 PMAccidentally put my response in the wrong thread, so I'll put my comments here. Generally, I enjoyed the series. Yeah. It did have a few "why did...96 replies | 6356 view(s)

2024-04-25, 09:57 PMNothing. But you are the one who created a thread about what I can only assume is "something that went wrong" in your game. So clearly, the fact that...366 replies | 16117 view(s)

2024-04-25, 12:05 PMYeah. I suppose a caveat to this is about how cruncy/soft the game you're playing is. If you're running a very firm "the rules say that to do this,...186 replies | 10592 view(s)
