So are we still doing that progression series draft thing?
>>97343260No.
>>97343230Everybody's too chicken to commit to something, especially when it might not work out. But that's precisely why people should try. Because what happens if it does work? That's a scarier uncertainty. Then you have something, and you need to make it. Producing the egg, if you will. Creation.
>>97343300thank you for your post. I hope we'll make it

Is it better to have the monster races more monster, or more human? Is there a better middle line or is it just better to err on the side of 'keep them bestial'? Art is from the veil rider rpg

I have a bit of an inane question for the peanut gallery. Do you have a favorite thing that you'd never actually play/play as?For example, I just realized that I really fucking love the Samedi/Cappadocian clan/bloodline of Vampire: The Masquerade.But I don't think I'd ever consider playing one, and I'd likely opt to play a Malkavian instead under virtually all circumstances, or a Tremere. Samedi doesn't even register on the list of characters I'd like to play, even when I do have concepts I'd include if I were the ST/GM.

Agility and good positioning skills are what make shenanigans happen in this game and the aforementioned have probably the most reliability when it comes to trying for them. They all pay for it with fragility and sometimes costly players.

>>97342970>people like different things than me?>impossible!
I guess overall the god machine thing and overall appraoaches to separating or mixing the setting splats comes down to personal taste and your group.Nice to see that it's not universal desu
I feel like Werewolf as a splat should be changed into "Shapeshifter" or some such. Give people the option to play as whatever & focus on unlocking different forms. Like, I don't see a lot of differences between a werewolf or werelion other than cultural ties & i think it would be cool to have shapeshifting more developed where players & ever the tribes/metaplot/npcs are seeking different forms as a way to gain power or advantage, & you could even have "legendary" or "mythic" forms, like maybe your character after much soul searching & questing unlocks a Unicorn shapeshift or a Dragon one, maybe there's even subsets of regular shapeshifting like "shadow wolf form". Maybe even developing shapeshifting into non-living forms like having your wolf become swift wind or soft rain.
>>97343190I guess I just don't see what splats are supposed to do in a single splat gameEndless political intrigue? Endless factory bombing? Endless getting beaten up by the Techies? Sounds pretty boring desu

>>97342521>A list of parameters to compare them by would be helpful.I like having lots of customizability during character creation/advancement and tactical depth during combat. But I also dislike having trap options during character creation (there shouldn't be "Option A" and "Option A, but objectively better with no tradeoffs"). I like having the option to specialize hard into something and actually be competent at doing things. I extremely dislike requiring a trait/feat for permission attempt things that a normal person could feasibly accomplish with enough extra risk/time/effort/etc. I don't like staring at my character sheet for too long to decide what to do, but would rather ask questions of my environment and improvise tactics on the fly.Having these sorts of things in a game makes it both easier for me to run or play. My friend might disagree, though. Part of the reason he wants to run DH2E is because he found a homebrew that caught his interest (which would save him the trouble of coming up with his own), and he worried that GURPS would be too complicated for him to run.>would you prefer prices by mechanical utility or prices by internal economical plausibilityI recommended my friend just pick a value for each Availability class and stick to that, since that would hopefully be simpler to convert. But he insists on using "realistic" prices, but has no idea how to do that. Using the prices in DH1E seems like it would be a useful reference (in fact, I think I heard about this before, and did recommend it to him), but much of his equipment list is also homebrew, so I don't know how much help that will be.
>>97342636Is sharing the brew possible? It is not improbable that whatever analysis is done regarding DH2E won't be true for the brew due to the changes made in it.
>>97342671The brew is called "Sector X", a DH2E hack for the Girls' Frontline setting, which me and my m8s have been interested in for a while.Friend found it on a Discord server that he joined and shared the link with me:>https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XQOIQYeirpdHkXvP0bh7OmvqKVb2Yul8/view
>>97342780A quick glance shows that the core mechanics are largely untouched, which means that analysis regarding the core mechanics of DH2E can apply here.Point by point:>I like having lots of customizability during character creation/advancementThis criterion favours GURPS; not only because it's got many more books with options and toolkits (even if we connect the original DH2E - and earlier - options to this brew), but also because of DH2E's aptitude subsystem, which this brew keeps, and its large block method of character creation, which this brew similarly inherits.>and tactical depth during combatThis criterion would benefit from further explanation; what are the combat choices you enjoy making in GURPS and other systems listed? DH2E might share some of them, but is unlikely to share all.>But I also dislike having trap options during character creationMore of a content (object) than core mechanics (methods) question here; that said, some character blocks in the linked brew do appear to be relatively standout (not necessarily power-wise, but, so to speak, mechanical boldness-wise) to me. The aptitude subsystem can be considered somewhat related to this, however.>I like having the option to specialize hard into something and actually be competent at doing thingsThe feeling of that in DH2E can be diluted or obfuscated due to how reliant its roll mechanics are on external bonuses; a skill at the seemingly "competent" level of Trained (+0) results in about 30-40% successes for a starting character with a skill-relevant characteristic of 30-40 when doing tasks rated at +0 (which a reader might initially assume to be similar to a default difficulty). The players need to take account of what bonuses they can squeeze from further skill training, equipment etc., and the GM also needs to take account of what actual task difficulty to set.1/???
>>97342780>>97343207 (You)>I extremely dislike requiring a trait/feat for permission attempt things that a normal person could feasibly accomplishWould you treat disarmament as such a thing? If yes, then both DH2E and the linked brew are at least one talent guilty of this.>I don't like staring at my character sheet for too long to decide what to do, but would rather ask questions of my environment and improvise tactics on the fly.In this case, something more suited to this approach than either of GURPS and DH2E (and the brew) could work better. Talents and other enhancements here are likely to give the character bonuses and penalty negations based on specific circumstances; some give, so to speak, buttons to press; how many of them you end up with depends on what you put exp into.Additionally, the linked brew seems to strongly prefer gunnery and put steep upfront costs on melee, so you're going to fight against the brew's bias if you want to pursue the concept you've mentioned.2/2

I havent thought of oneLet me live my fantasy of not having my money I work hard for get stolen by petty Bureaucrat who uses said money to fund infinite black holes and then say the black hole didn't get smaller but infact grew by a few billion quid
I've been playing games for almost two decades now and people who pump Charisma are consistently the most useless faggots in every party. And this remained true even during the very few times I have attempted it myself.I have no choice but to arrive at the conclusion that Charisma and every one of its iterations across every fucking game ever is just genuinely useless placebo dog shit. And when pressed to justify their investment charismafaggots always ramble about how good it is in real life as if that has any fucking bearing at all on TTRPGs.Besides, it's not that good in real life either. Actors and performers were considered on the same level as prostitutes in status for most of history.
Charisma is overrated IRL ofc. But some classes use it as their casting stat and so of course need to pump it.
>>97339772or just don't play classes centered on useless stas
>bonus to reaction rolls and attracting retainersOP i don't think you've been playing games for two decades. this has a direct, useful function in the game it's from. you're talking about some weird theatre group you're in.
>>97343314nobody used those rules because they're retardedthere's a reason they got removed from later editions
>>97343317no, they're what the charisma stat is for. as in, they're just the actual rules. you could play-act out a whole 'scene' and if your...troupe leader (???) decides you gave a grand performance then you get an extra torchbearer from the tavern....or you could follow the simple procedure in the game rules, lol.
Is it better to have fully anthropomorphic beast people in your settings or just humans with like animal ears and tails?
>>97341888The former, because I don't need to justify evolution in a world with magic and divine creation lol
>>97330572>kemonomimi >I want the woman to be a domesticated pet >some sort of moral grandstanding lmao
>>97343051Women are basically pets you're not allowed to discipline in western culture.The least they can do is be cute.
>>97341888If you're going to get that autistic about realism then you might as well get rid of elves and dwarves too because that's even more improbable for entirely different races from entirely different origins from humans, and that often have rivalries with them to exist while also looking very similar to each other without having wiped the others out or turned them all into one singular race over time.

>>97339615I do enjoy armor-of-the-many-boob with her pelvic-octopus-whip.It's... horny.
>>97339745The idea with the Aphorine devotees is that they are essentially biochemical warfare specialists. Their augmentation has turned their bodies into living cauldrons for production of potent chemical concoctions, drugs and hormones they can use to either subdue, beguile or just outright kill their victims. Basically, they are akin to living censers that in combat, emit a cloud of mind altering vapors. Just getting too close to them without rebreathers may be dangerous and even rebreather aparatuses may not help because many of the chemicals the aphorine devotees can unleahs are skin permiable. The octopus like "caressid" symbiote plays a vital part in this process as can use the basal compounds produced by the augments of the aphorine and catalyze them into even more potent chemicals and toxins and transfuse them into it's stinging tentacle whip, allowing the Aphorine to basically deliver lashes laced with whatever mixture of drugs, toxins or hormones they desire to inflict on their victims.
>>97334762I like those ideas, I can work with thatThe goo Lagoon one especially, got me thinking of a underwater necrocracy with merfolk mummies and necromancers and these said mummies when brought to the surface be in tanks of brine that could be cool
>>97333455>>97336630You doing illustrations of different weapons and soldiers in your setting has inspired me to do the same, even though I mostly focus on space stuff, though I don't do it very often (This is the latest one I did, after someone asked me to complete a set of similar pictures for all the main factions of the setting).
>>97341958Neat. The race for which these weapons are for are some sort of insectoids?
