Do you include seasonal changes in your campaigns when time goes by?

If so, what do you implement int the world to showcase the changing seasons?

I personally include sea raiders who begin assaults on the kingdom's shores in spring and through summer, who then return to their homeland in fall to winter it out. So essentially a raiding season for my world's vikings, like in real history.

I used to roll up planets with GURPS Space for fun, and even the marginally habitable ones were absolute hellworlds.
I can't find my notes right now, but one was basically only liveable at the equator and it was so hot (water planet with primitive algae producing oxygen) and the axial tilt so massive that any change of seasons would probably bring insane storms. I figured the inhabitants would probably live in above ground bunkers you could raise with hydraulics in case of flooding

In my current campaign the rainy autumn weather is actually an important "plot point", since it allows vampires to move relatively freely at day. My players have not yet noticed this.
>>
>>97368344
Probably because rainy weather should do the opposite. Potential for flowing water, which vampires can't cross.

>>97368715
It's a trade-off. They are more mobile than usual at day, but a bit less mobile than usual at night. But if you don't know vampires are involved at all, you don't really think about this.

Shield projector bug thing. The "energy shields" in my setting are just thin silk like fabric composed of fibers that can temporarily become immovable objects, and thus essentially gain tremendous amount of physical resilience. This state does however heat the fibers up and maintaining it too long will cause them to burn out without sufficient cooling.

Having it write actual text, also once the conversation becomes longer than a certain point because it just breaks.

ChatGPT is kind of shit for creative tasks but I've found Claude is able to do a decent job of translating into my conlangs and identifying problems such as missing roots.

I am perfectly capable of grasping "wonder" in the world around us. My issue is insisting that the word "magic" have all other meanings expunged for retarded reductions twisting vocabulary into tautological knots. The ability to discuss unreal things is essential to falsification, which is a requirement for ACTUAL science as understood by those meaningfully engaged with it instead of just raving lunatics appealing to its authority.

>impervious to locals' empirical methods
Anon, thst is not and has never actually been logically possible.
Impericle methods only require 2 things, 1 ability to be observed and 2 repeatable. The first is even negotiable to some extent if you have point 2.
>The "higher-dimensional physics" copout is actually a good example
It really isn't, because we're already observing higher-dimensional physics IRL. You don't need any ability to directly observe the mechanisms of a thing if you can observe and replicate it's effects on a thing you know.
Think of it this way: We can't observe the mechanisms of magnetic fields directly in any way, but we sure as shit can observe when metal starts acting weird.

Tabletop RPGs tend to split up crafting into a high number of crafting subskills for every individual area of expertise. There's no question that crafting is still extremely powerful despite forcing you to go through this hassle, but what are your thoughts on which particular crafting subskills tend to be the most useful in the context of a TTRPG campaign, be it a medieval or modern or sci-fi setting?

Pic related is from Legend of the Five Rings, where I'll be playing a crafter soon, and I intend to invest heavily into crafting. But feel free to talk about any game you've had experience with.

Question from last thread but thread 404 shortly after:
Any tips on printing flat, square tiles?
I know a FDM printer would be the best solution but I have already 2 resin printer and wont buy am additional FDM one (I only would need about 15 tiles, so not that many) .
The plates would be 12x12x0,5cm (street tiles) in size. Should I print them flat on the bed or upright and put a lot of Supports under one side (if this Option would be possible I could print ca 10 at once and would be done after 2 prints).

So my DND group was kind of disolving, 2 out of the 4 players left because of life issues (one got a job abroad and the other one is dealing with life), to keep playing we incorporated 2 new players with not so much experience but avid watchers of Critical Role.

One of these player conditions was that we incorporate x cards to the game, she says that it makes it much more comfortable for her to know she can avoid unpleasant story elements having this tool.

I started to read a bit about it online and is this something you guys have used? In my 20 years playing I've never used this.

'Triggers' not just being things that'll send you into a panic attack at the mention of them, but also things that'll send you off on a rant, that you consider too important to joke about or parody, shit like that.

Most people don't have ptsd, but most people have something they feel strongly about, enough to get worked up over. One of mine is the unironic championing of anti-intellectualism as anything more than moral degeneracy. A Dwarf might be triggered by the mention of Elves occupying his ancestral family mine.

Avoiding 'triggering' your players, and thus ruining their experience for the night by bringing up something that distracting, is just good GM practice.

That’s not a trigger, that’s just a personal gripe that one can’t let go of, like when someone’s racist uncle refuses to stop ranting about immigrants even after being asked to reign it in for thanksgiving. There is a point to be made about not intentionally antagonizing people with subjects they feel strongly about, but most of those people who demand you respect their boundaries tend to downplay everyone else’s, so I get very incredulous about those sorts.
