Yesterday, 11:19 AMI think we all have said, in some form or fashion, that "agency" or "impact on the events of the game" or whichever phrase we prefer, is one quality...186 replies | 10396 view(s)

2024-04-30, 05:20 PMI'm not sure if you mean me specifically in "defend my choices", and I'm not sure what you're suggesting with the "understand" line. So I'll assume...186 replies | 10396 view(s)

2024-04-30, 03:55 PMRather than just disagree, I will reframe: The majority of things we can control in the world are trivial and self-facing. This isn't to say we are...186 replies | 10396 view(s)

2024-04-30, 01:24 PMAh. This was about expectations, I think, and what makes "agency" and what makes "good stuff" and what, if any, is the overlap. For what it is...186 replies | 10396 view(s)

2024-04-29, 01:56 PMI was referring only to the Player providing the GM a list of what treasures they might like to see...I still hold that the GM selecting a particular...186 replies | 10396 view(s)

2024-04-26, 04:58 PMAgency only applies to places where the character has choice, IMO. The character *never* has a choice in what treasure appears (except in those...186 replies | 10396 view(s)

2024-04-26, 02:10 PMMordar replied to a thread DM Help Any experience with measuring instead of using a grid? in Roleplaying GamesI like the plastic measuring sticks I've found in other games.

2024-04-26, 11:22 AMMordar replied to a thread Point buy skill systems with efficiencies that shift as you grow in Roleplaying GamesCan you describe the engine running in the background? Is this a D20 system? Percentile? How narrow are the specializations? - M26 replies | 1238 view(s)

2024-04-25, 11:28 AMMordar replied to a thread So what might have been Elan's super secret plan? in The Order of the StickI was/am actually staggered by this. Elegant, accurate and compelling. There was only one blaster shot. - M89 replies | 5888 view(s)

2024-04-25, 11:18 AMI think that conversations like this get muddied. I think it is a bit like pop-history Athens and Sparta. "Which is stronger?" can only be answered...609 replies | 24109 view(s)

2024-04-24, 02:20 PMWhile the Jedi are "heroes", they aren't the Heroes of the Story. One particular Jedi is. I think it is worth arguing if the one Jedi is Anakin or...609 replies | 24109 view(s)

2024-04-23, 12:07 PMYeah, I guess the idea of vermin as disease vector stands to reason. See also: Bitey Zombies. - M12 replies | 523 view(s)

2024-04-22, 12:26 PMMaybe my biggest quibble - it isn't that Jedi "fail" to save it. The Senate fails to save it. The Jedi both delay and hasten the collapse (delay...609 replies | 24109 view(s)
