Depends, if you mean in terms of lore/worldbuilding that's a difficult question. If you mean in terms of design and gameplay the answer is Path of Exile and nothing else comes close, the entire game is built around exploiting the same types of small interactions that high-power formats are full of. It all runs off of keywords and the skill tree and gearing are similar to deckbuilding where your entire build is oriented around one core concept that you boost in several loosely associated ways.
Other games in the genre tend to use "Legendary" items as the highest tier of rarity and they're just straight better than everything else, whereas PoE calls them "Unique" items instead because they give you one specific effect that is useless for most builds and rarely outweighs the benefits of having a good stat stick in that slot instead, but if you find a way to exploit it then you can do things that would be impossible otherwise.
Chris Wilson, the original lead dev, is a huge Magicfag and collects ABU-era misprints as a hobby, and the whole reason PoE exists is because he wanted to put Magic's design into Diablo 2's gameplay.

*band roguelikes that branch from Zangband, since they include Amberites, if you just played MtG and let that bias choose what you see on the screen. I particularly like Poschengband 3.5.1, but feel free to try newer/supported branches, I think some anon created Pseudoellisposchengband, and you can play Frogcomposband on mobile if you care for it. Amberites really feel like planeswalkers, their passive regen makes them monsters in battle even if you're a caster, and you can easily color-code your gish with the right paladin domain or wizard-warrior combination.
You won't get the broken 3 card combo going infinite that easily, as Angband variants are more "fair" and about numbers going up instead of Ulyssean exploits. But it feels like what MtG felt when I started playing in Onslaught, casually.

To the trigger. For example last session my cleric said he would use radiance of the dawn either when all the enemies were within range or at initiative 1. Can you add triggers? How many can you add because it could get silly? If you don’t use it on a trigger so you miss your chance?

>>97360228
That's a DM call. Personally, I wouldn't allow it unless a player made a strong case for why they're really two versions of the same trigger.

Well, that's flatly against the rules, which state that it must be a "perceivable circumstance". Player characters can't perceive the initiative count.

I thought that was generally understood.

Most systems and book series go through various answers but normally elves make better wizards overall. Either the elves have an extra century or two to learn and master their craft, or they are some inherently magical species that is just plain better by birth. It's all the same in the end.

Humanity's strength is always in numbers. They are not the best at anything but they are more populous. They are the smart horde species while orcs, goblins and everything else that wins wars through wave tactics are complete savages. Humans are the mostly intelligent wave tactic savages that can be kind of not shit at things.

Exalted made a point of specifically contrasting itself with DnD, though, making a big deal of differences rather than similarities.

>Stop being autistic and planting your flag on this hill. Why is this something you're even being this stubborn about? Besides autism
Why are you, anon? I mean, you're right here arguing with me about this. I don't personally think that pointing out the simple fact that distant gods are common in Western fantasy, and that they are a thing in several of the novels Exalted lists as its inspirations, is particularly stubborn or autistic, and the reason I keep talking about this is simply because people keep, or at least one person keeps, bizarrely trying to argue that distant gods is somehow a deconstruction or in any way unexpected.

>It means that all existing elements of a work are played without the Rule of Cool, Rule of Drama, Rule of Funny, and so on, to see what hidden assumptions the work uses to make its point.
Exalted does this at literally every point. Solars coming back to get punked by a death squad because they are still too inexperienced, magic sword factories because why wouldn't you, the prayer trade, heaven being run by incompetent in middle managers. Then you get the stuff that's intentionally contrary, like epic heroes actually being part of an automated system to make them into those superheroes.
>>
Celestial Exaltation should just be described with a new incarnation of an ancient hero instead of reincarnation, as it describes what they are better, even if an Exaltation being a magical third soul makes it a weird grey area for being a reincarnation.

Have we done anything with John Browning yet? I've been discussing gun designs with a friend, and the subject of Browning came up with him getting started in this exact period. Of course, most of his more famous designs, the 1911, Hi-Power, .50 M2, etc. are from later, but he was still designing and making several firearms before the turn of the century. And we've nudged the development period of certain designs before, with the Maxim I believe.

I'm just divided on whether to keep him pretty normal with a blank cheque from the government post-Paraguay, or work in something Hyperborean. He'd basically be a saint up there with everything he's made/going to make. Alternately, I thought about somebody finding a 1911 or something on the battlefields of Paraguay and it makes its way into his hands (2000 Psychic Wars!)
>>
>>97360094
We haven't done enough with the Paraguayan War in general. The Second Oriental Crisis got a massive point by point description, and the Fall of Paris and the survival of the city also has a ton of lore. Compared to them, Paraguay has very little.

As I said, they were meant to be opponents, IIRC the example was a chaos marine (singular) as a high level opponent for a whole gang.

>gameplay
For Centaurs, you should be able to use them as mounts when not in combat if they're lightly armed & armored. I think you could ride into battle with them and fight on their back without overburdening them, depending on your loadout. Squeezing into dungeons and caves might be a bit of a bitch, and your centaur companion may find themselves too cumbersome to accompany you in certain locations. If people in wheelchairs can make do, I'm sure a transmog potion or a shrinking potion might solve the problem.
>fantasy settings
They're more at home here for sure, like having a horse. Some taverns may give you a hard "no" for your centaur companion, but I'm sure regions that are steeped in centaur culture or adjacent ones have accommodations for their unique anatomy. If nothing else, they could help carry your camp supplies and other provisions.
>loadouts for fantasy
If you're not riding them, I think they can be pretty well armed and armored- think tower shield and a mace/flail. They also make good spearmen, so I think they'd be comfortable wielding a halbard and similar pike-style weapons. This would be with them wearing plate mail cuirass for the human portion and chainmail curtain over their horse hind quarters, or perhaps some specially fitted Gambeson. Other plate sections could be fitted to their horse body as needed. Archery and crossbows seem like they'd work for ranged options. I've not considered them using magic, but having a fairly mobile spellcaster seems cool as well.

got a first session of Choir of Flesh in. Still getting the hang of the exploration but overall I like the core game loop, it feels flexible enough to expand on with some actual roleplaying but easy to fall back on. I like the settlement mechanics, it adds a fun base building element. His GMless sections keep getting better, this one has a nice bit on plots with hook generation and tension elements and stuff. Always like the balance of art to dense words he has in his rulebooks too, and the artist he got for this book is really really good.
