i play chess sometimes

2019-01-06 10:13:12 UTC  

Chess is the greatest tabletop.
game. prove me wrong

2019-01-06 18:04:04 UTC  

Yea i watched it. Tbh im not the biggest fan of matt mercers dm style. I dont mind the rest, but as a dm hes not the strongest.

2019-01-06 18:05:16 UTC  

Least not for dnd. He would be better suited for more story systems like fate, vtm, and call of cthulu

2019-01-06 18:05:16 UTC  

What's your sort of style?

2019-01-06 18:12:43 UTC  

To be honest every system is slightly fidderent. But dnd, to me at least is a balancing of mechanics and story. I have watched interviews with mercer and critical roll. While much of it is decent, he does fudge rolls a hair to often, or not have a mechanics check at all when he really should. It takes away from the more...surprise of the situation.

Critical role as a show has been a bit of a double edged sword for dnd in general.

2019-01-06 18:13:41 UTC  

It gave the game/fandom much needed positive press. But gave a lot of those new players this expectation level that is near unrealistic with a new group.

@Goblin_Slayer_Floki most of the 5e players I've talked really should be playing more rules lite systems since they're more into the story then the mechanics

2019-01-06 18:25:40 UTC  

Many i would agree. Many of them are new to dnd, and were inspired to join via critical role and others like it. To many players ive ran into havent even opened the player handbook in a meaningful way. Like sargon, vee, and arch with theirs.

The older players from systems like 3.5 and pa5hfinder tend to be fine. Story is important, but so are mechanics.

2019-01-06 18:26:26 UTC  

But the issue is 5e in general. It was built as a medium mechanics game with a light mechanics feel

2019-01-06 18:26:37 UTC  

that's a very big reason why I don't play 5e

2019-01-06 18:27:05 UTC  

Yea. I have high hopes for Pathfinder 2

2019-01-06 18:27:16 UTC  

It looks like what 5e should have been

2019-01-06 18:27:38 UTC  

Simplification and streamlining of rules, but still mechanics drivin.

2019-01-16 15:45:33 UTC  

I have been listening to a pretty entertaining WH40k Dark Heresy campaign, I recommend it.

2019-01-16 15:46:20 UTC  

Er, Enemy Within actually

2019-01-16 15:46:38 UTC

No wait I was right the first time

2019-01-23 04:36:00 UTC  

thanks

Seems like GW cares more about beeing politically correct rather than good sales. I can bet booblated comissar would sell better. :P

2019-01-24 07:36:04 UTC  

It will sell regardless of boob plates. And they do have relatively new models with boob plates as well

2019-01-24 09:50:30 UTC  

best model from last year

i need ideas for a campaign where the wood trade has just been over turned by the players by accident. the town knows, and a lot of rich people hate them now.... what do?

2019-01-25 00:03:14 UTC  

Nerd

2019-01-25 00:21:29 UTC  

ok

2019-01-25 07:48:11 UTC  

@NamasKnight in my campaign I think we are the rich people in charge of the wood trade lol
