I know Hasbro and Wizards don't care. The issue is why the players don't realize they don't care. Like why the fuck are they putting Mark on a pedestal when he is the face of their abuser. It's probably the same reason why most players don't realize that some fraction of other players fucking hate them for choosing Spongebob cards to play with.

Fucking Magic and Warhammer and D&D own the fucking in-store gaming space. How the fuck do you get less people interested than fucking pickleball when your base is basically every geek under the age of 50.

>The issue is why the players don't realize they don't care.
As someone who only got into the game a few years ago, I can tell you I have never seen a more reddit consoomer audience in my fucking life.

We had a thread on this board a few weeks ago about which gaming community is the worst, and I made this point.
I played Warhammer throughout my entire teens, and Warhammer players are all whales with plastic-crack addictions, but at least they have the common sense to hate Games Workshop. They know it's a shitty company that only cares about bleeding them dry. I don't think you could find a single Warhammer creator that likes how GW operates.

But in Magic? Content creators jerk WotC off no matter fucking what. Even when they're critical about something WotC does, they're all so afraid of losing special access they get that they'll pull their punches, buy and promote the product anyway. Command Zone will make a video clickbaiting in the thumbnail about UB fatigue, but then not really say anything, and then put fucking Vivi as the "best card of the year" a month later.
None of these people have the balls to openly boycott UB. That faggot Professor will stress-sigh as he opens $400 UB collector booster boxes, say he "doesn't want to yuck someone else's yum", and just keep churning out videos anyway because he needs the income.
CGB will whine about how UB doesn't feel like Magic, but then insist that every player only hates UB when they're not being catered to, and goes on to play all the busted shit in UB sets anyway because winning digital card games is the only thing he has in life.
And then you have the actual soiboi collectors like Crim and Robert Red Beard who are actually mental-deficients obsessed with stockpiling collectible crap that will go to landfill when they die.

It has been very strange seeing a community like this.

>>97226421
I think what happened to Magic is the same thing that happened to video games in that the players worship the companies except unlike Magic the video game companies won't reward you for your YouTube sycophancy. There are people who worship Kojima or Square or Blizzard, wholly lacking the sense that those entities are absolutely shit.

I think the common thread between video games and Magic is that the barriers to entry are far lower than Warhammer. Magic you don't even need to leave your home to play it like a video game. You can just play it at home with your equally retarded friends or on an online platform and engage with these echo chambers and have a good time. With Warhammer you must meet people, real human beings who will say shit you might not agree with and this barrier to entry cultivates better people, people who actually have to think about existing in a public space. Magic isn't like that nor is video games, players can live in a complete bubble their entire time never having to interact with another human being who might have something critical and nasty to say about the common interest.

Linghao is relatively good at survival, or at least he's good at some parts of survival. He can hunt down beasts, and survive temperature shifts. Eating beasts could trigger unwanted evolutions tho, so he prefers bringing food from home in his storage treasure to have a safe alteranative instead in case he finds nothing beneficial. He likes exploring, be it nature or otherwise, so he at least is used to it even if not as good as someone that lives like that.
I just realized his insight would make him surprisingly good at survival, because having instinctual knowledge of evolution means knowing what defense mechanisms creatures evolved, like poison and such. Insights are supposed to grow, so he's not perfect at it yet, and he would rather not risk it for now, so he doesn't use it unless he really wants something for cultivation purposes.

I'm excited to see where Haoran's relationship with her father develops. I think Haoran is in a prime position to develop a heart demon of sorts. She has a pretty nasty inferiority complex and bouts of paranoia that i think could worsen depending on how the expedition in the ghost lands go. Maybe some evil fucking wizard shenanigans? She already has some pretty scathing critiques of the Xun clan and the greater cultivation world. I would like for her to come out of these trials better for it, but i guess we'll see where it goes. I also think her cultivation could have some interesting applications if she is able to gain some more Natural Insight.

>>97226244
Haoran hasn't gotten out that much in regards to the untamed wilderness shes much more of a pavilion princess. Any of her survival knowledge is untested and theoretical.

>This however also includes the background of your character, so if you've studied in the Underworld you have access to your "Subject" and your "Background" for deciding your Introduce Fact and such. If you lived in Nexus, and had a subject of underworld, you could use lore for both of these things. Charms can change this and enhance it.
Close, but not quite, pg 238 clarifies that the background IS the subject, so you only get one thing, and it has to be a subject you're knowable in
>A player character’s Lore background—the subject their Lore rating primarily reflects
Though it also clarifies this can be expanded by Lore specialties, but you're limited to subject and specialties for your Lore rolls

Both 2e and 1e have a more general stance on Lore, with the difficulty being dependent on the obscurity of the fact, regardless of the character making the roll's background or specialties (3e's is based on plot importance)

>>97226568
>>97226631
Depends on what you're using it for, if it's mystical knowledge in general, yeah it should probably be Occult instead of Lore, if it's history/geography/customs/etc of the Underworld or just general academics like Math and what not, then yeah, it should probably be Lore
Mechanics-wise, the biggest thing is that you can swap Lore out for Occult (or another Ability) for Occult related subjects (or subjects related to that other Ability), though this is only implied in 3e, 1e and 2e explicitly say you can

>>97226652
Yeah, it's not exactly a sharp line, I'd be surprised if a character had more than 3 dots in one and 0 in the other for that reason

>Exalted has devolved to the point you can't even be sure what your character knows with their Lore rating
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>>97226681
Oh, it's pretty clear if you read the rules, your character knows whatever is covered by his subject of study. It just requires you to fully read the rules because RAW works a bit differently than how it's described at the start of the ability description

>>97226681
Exalted's abilities were never well thought out, they suffer from aberrant legacy and the 1e's 5 numerology

>>97226673
It also takes into your specialties and various lore charms, along with the Background. You're right that you can only use lore on the things knowable to you though I'm just saying a lot of that comes to ST fiat and isn't really all that strict. "Nexus" and "Underworld" are pretty damn workable.

Note that primarily line along with this line at the end of it which suggests that lore can be used on things unrelated to it, it's just going to be harder.

>Note again that it is the character’s Lore background and specialty that makes such rolls possible; characters with inaccurate knowledge or different backgrounds experience much greater difficulties, if they are allowed to roll at all.

In 2e it was pretty much the same, difficulty adjusted by the ST on the fly depending on how relevant the lore roll is for you. If you were studying in the underworld, it'd be a harder lore roll for you (if allowed at all) to know what's going on in Nexus. Charms change thing. You could use it for the history of Nexus, but in the same way if you studied in the underworld in 3e you could use that to know ancient things about Nexus from having talked to ghosts who lived there.

Again all of this doesn't matter though because we haven't even touched all the lore charms that just let you magically know shit.

If there’s enough interest and no legal risk I might store the weapon swap STLs on an online drive so people here can obtain and print them. I have also set up the new Antioch shock trooper arms with a trench polearm too, as the basic STLs don’t have that as an option.

Started out as a hobby so to me it just feels like I do my fun side project and mysteriously money shows up.

Up next is Play Mode (more accurately described as a tool for tracking BM/activations/use of battlekit during a game) and the post-game helper for injuries skills etc. After that is homebrew, then its just maintaining things and supporting the new content FF puts out.

I feel like I don't really understand NA's 'thing', even ignoring sub-factions. What's the faction gimmick supposed to be? I guess the fire teams?

>>97226419
I understand your point, but I don't think it's for me. Afaik, mtg cards don't come in many rarities (at least it was like this when I played it), and this makes high-rarity cards (mythic/secret cards) expensive while leaving the player without any alternatives.
I can agree with a model like this if the ultra/secret slot is just a rarity upgrade like in the OCG.
And just to be clear, my opinion comes from me not caring about always losing money when buying boxes. Afaik, it's the case for OCG

I can't speak for it but I can give you this advice. You can look up "triple [name] structure deck deck list" on google and find lists if you just want to build from the contents in box. If you want to go beyond that look at lists on YGOPRODECK and find one that works.
If you want to reduce the cost you can then post the deck list here and someone will likely help point out what expensive staples can be swapped for cheaper staples to bring the price down.
They've gotten some support since that SD released so expect to want to buy some singles. I do know they released DW Corridor after which is an insane card for the archetype, $4 each.

the good cards are all pointed and the Danger engine is also pointed. The only good Dark World name that was untouched was Broww and then people started playing it as a generic draw engine and they pointed it too.

Examples:
A fuel depot full of oil drums. The drums generally don't explode when shot, and provide substantial cover. But once they have been shot, they start to leak, making the ground slippery and causing every spark to risk igniting the spilled fuel.
An old mine. Metal carts and tunnel walls offer cover, but heavy fire or explosives can cause cave-ins, everything is dark, and some areas have dangerous build-ups of methane.
A fight from moving vehicles. Other vehicles can provide cover, or be unacceptable risks. All kinds of obstacles and hazards can suddenly appear.
A shootout in the lower decks of a ship. Once bullets start flying, punctures in the hull are inevitable and the entire area will be flooded with water (probably not realistic, but it's Action!)

Depending on how good a swimmer you are (and where you are), that might be survivable. People have swum longer distances than that in the sea.
How do you know where you are? Did you have time to get a GPS reading before the water wrecked your phone? Waterproof smart-watch?
Your immediate problem is that unless you can navigate be the stars / sun or have some kind of water-resistant GPS-enabled device, you don't even know which direction to swim in.

Sometimes I buy plastic when I should be buying food.

I was going to say "Sensou Kyoushitsu / The Bugle Call: Song of War" but I realized that's probably actually not post-apocalyptic fantasy, but rather a time travel fantasy in which humans from the year 10,000 interfere in medieval europe to secure military victories using magiscience in the past to effect the future.

>A story isn't necessary to make decisions for a character who isn't oneself, so a story never needs to go beyond what's directly associated with resolving the game's challenges through the abilities of the character as chosen by the player who isn't that character.
Then the story is optional? Alright, sure. Then what's wrong with having a story? And furthermore, what's wrong with discussing them? Your entire point is:
>Storytelling isn't necessary.

They're still games.
The reply chain is about games; more specifically, the fact that worldbuilding and story fags never talk about them when they clog the catalog with their off-topic shit.

>what's wrong with having a story
Nothing, but you story and worldbuilding fags never talk about games.

>what's wrong with discussing them
In being largely unnecessary to games, their discussion rarely has anything to do with any games anyone has actually played.
On a similar note, worldbuilding is rarely applied to any actual games discussion too.
There are plenty of places on this board and off it where you can masturbate over your worldbuilding ideas and stories, and they would be more welcoming to you, given that you never talk about playing any games.

I'm not telling you to hold in your shit, I'm saying you should use a toilet instead of the sidewalk.
