anything i should worry about here?

2020-03-11 07:30:50 UTC  

what is per?

2020-03-11 07:31:05 UTC  

why is speed its own point?

2020-03-11 07:35:12 UTC  

perception i'd guess

2020-03-11 07:35:19 UTC  

and that definitely does not want to be a core stat

2020-03-11 07:36:06 UTC  

not if you've got both wisdom and intelligence

2020-03-11 08:45:59 UTC  

^

2020-03-11 08:46:11 UTC  

why not make *sanity* its own score?

2020-03-11 08:46:31 UTC  

i think it could maybe fit i dunno

2020-03-11 10:03:06 UTC  

Idk, I’d argue for practical purposes irl at least wisdom or intelligence don’t necessarily affect perception

2020-03-11 10:03:39 UTC  

Also speed should be SPD smh

2020-03-11 10:08:11 UTC  

how perceptive you are isn't affected by wisdom and intelligence? unless we're talking literal fight or flight basic instinct I would argue otherwise lol

2020-03-11 10:13:06 UTC  

it feels very much like a wisdom thing imo. you have gotten used to be able to spot things n shit

2020-03-11 10:13:28 UTC  

plus I think it might become a dump stat that no one will ever need

2020-03-11 10:13:33 UTC  

except one person in the team

2020-03-11 10:14:50 UTC  

honestly though

2020-03-11 10:15:45 UTC  

the bigger issue is that you're creating a rule set that is going to have very little development and testing, and then you're going to expect ~4 other people to learn this new unfinished rule set to play one campaign

2020-03-11 10:15:57 UTC  

unless you've got plans to develop it properly

2020-03-11 10:16:19 UTC  

you'd be better off using some existing rule set and adjusting the setting to suit your campaign

2020-03-11 10:17:15 UTC  

gurps is one example that is literally exactly for this lol

2020-03-11 10:17:53 UTC  

this

2020-03-11 10:18:30 UTC  

I personally always base shit on 5e but take elements from other games

2020-03-11 10:18:55 UTC  

balancing is a lot easier if you've got shit right in front of you that is basically equivalent to what you're trying to do

2020-03-11 10:20:28 UTC  

d&d has had decades of development by hundreds of fuckin autistic nerds and millions of dollars poured into

2020-03-11 10:20:37 UTC  

one man isn't going to match that

2020-03-11 10:21:17 UTC  

though I suppose some of those Kickstarter games have done okay

2020-03-11 10:21:19 UTC  

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

2020-03-11 10:22:13 UTC  

trying to make my friends play 3,5 or pathfinder with me aint working out 😔 @Dust

2020-03-11 10:22:19 UTC  

havent played pathfinder in months

2020-03-11 10:44:35 UTC  

5e plebs are scared of 3.5

2020-03-11 10:44:42 UTC  

because they're too used to easy mode

2020-03-11 10:44:56 UTC  

"I don't want to have to learn actual rules"

2020-03-11 10:45:26 UTC  

thing is, 3,5 would really fit us. we like discussing how to make pretty strong characters and planning ahead and yadda yadda

2020-03-11 10:45:36 UTC  

also big numbers are fun

2020-03-11 10:45:47 UTC  

and the abundance of books and shit is so good

2020-03-11 10:46:00 UTC  

yeah you've got way more customisation options in 3.5/pf

2020-03-11 10:46:10 UTC  

you're not just generic fighter #27

2020-03-11 10:46:23 UTC  

archetypes and prestige and etc

2020-03-11 10:48:17 UTC  

Lol imagine not playing AE

2020-03-11 10:55:43 UTC  

most of the prestige classes became subclasses in 5e @Dust
