I think I may have seen Glass Cannon play this on New Game Who Dis? I thought it looked fun but isn’t there like massive heaps of stuff to roll up just to play? Not only your characters whole life so far but like the whole star system? I’ll admit I was intimidated.

I have a copy of Ironsworn but I’ve always thought it was basically solo? I will crack it open, thanks!

THIS very much. Thanks!

Hey I know it’s been a minute. I appreciate all the suggestions! Some of these were already on my radar but no direct experience so, thank you! I’ve decided to grab some of my past 5e characters that I feel I know pretty well, throw together an equivalent in some of these systems, & try to solo them, see what I learn! If anyone wants to recommend good actual plays I’d love it!!? Prefer YouTube over podcast but either will do in a pinch. If I fall in love I’ll definitely come back & share! Happy Gaming!

And more stuff - possibly some teen/preteen players so at least need to have options to tone down / cut out extreme bloody sex horror. Also, I believe in rulesets & settings are separate things. Genre less important to me as fixing the problems I mentioned.

What’s right for me? (self.ttrpgrecs)
 

I’m looking for a better TTRPG experience. Started with AD&D in satanic panic era, left, came back to 5E a half dozen years ago. Got a great group & GM but some things just don’t suit me. For one, wouldn’t mind being done with Hasbro. My biggest issues in D&D? Character regret, & swinginess. Rolling up a character idea that sounds fun, but in-game always seems to go some completely different direction & now I’ve got an established character everyone depends on but locked into an un-fun stat / ability set. And ALWAYS whatever my concept is I can’t seem to roll for crap in those stats even with the bonuses, failing check after check when it’s the one thing I should be good at. That should only be possible rarely IMHO. Goals: I want above to go away or be much weaker. I want to be able to introduce friends & family who are new & unsure, probably rules light? But I do like dice rolling & some structure, don’t know if a pure storytelling game would work. Can’t be purely abstract. I love a good campaign but also a lot of times just want to be a beer league player, sit down, go to a cave & smash stuff, without needing a complex story to it. Party needs gold, rescue the missing turtle, let’s get swinging. Have thought for a long time about maybe west marches type scenarios. Show up, solve problems, check boxes, bring a new sheet to the next game whenever. Would work great for some of the gang. Not at all adverse to player death. Sorry so long, love to hear opinions!

Was so glad when he re-signed. He’s a prototype. Running the ball might be what he does 3rd best. Huge fan.

No lie, when first round of roster cuts were made, & they were talking about having too much talent at RB, I was asking why don’t we trade CEH & keep one of the guys who really showed up in pre-season that we let go. Glad the coaches knew more than me rn

Edwards-Helaire with the insane vertical leap!

Rice so nice! Now the most # of touchdowns by a Chief in their Rookie year! LFG!

[–] upernikos 2 points 11 months ago (2 children)

It’s all part of the master plan! I still believe!

[–] upernikos 3 points 11 months ago

You ain’t wrong, though, refs wanted their 15 minutes of fame.

[–] upernikos 3 points 11 months ago

TBH, no rules expert, but I don’t think it from a late out of bounds hit, but you can’t really ever get away with going head-to-head on a QB. No low tackles, stay away from their head, don’t take more than 2 steps, don’t body them to the ground, etc. I think that’s why it was Unsportsmanlike, but I could be wrong.

Every team the Chiefs play : “The refs favor the Chiefs, it’s ridiculous”. The refs: “Jawaan Taylor”

Maybe we can get big man a different jersey number next game?
