>>96296363That sounds quite interesting, do you have any idea on how corruption will work? I believe that is a core aspect of NTR/NTS, seeing your partner become more willing and lewd. At the moment I'm playing a game of Liminal Horror and contextualizing the stress/fallout mechanic as a corruption meter for the female character.>>96302351>in one case, you can take the route of having the wife stack relevant creature modifiers to then take onto the husband as a reward for saving herThat's a very interesting idea, I'm doing something similar in my game where the consequences of getting too lewd bring pros and cons. At the moment her womb is being parasitized and the coonsequences are yet to be determined.>>96323607That's actually something I've been looking for for quite a while, a system that would allow me to play some kind of NTR slice of life game where NPCs have some level of autonomy to surprise me. Love the idea of exploring and finding out about bits and pieces of what's happening. I've been thinking about playing something like this using so1um, but I'm not sure how I would work around some stuff yet.For the game I'm playing right now there are some surprise factors I'm looking forward to but I think it's possible for them to happen without tinkering with the system I"m playing with.>>96471037Denying myself a bit is a turn on, but the main reason I rather play than jerk off is that if I start jerking off I won't know more of what's going to happen. If the game is being interesting enough I'll want to stay on that edge, that thrill.

>>96466392>Who wants to engage with this paper thin Blizzard lore?You want fluff: a cassus belli, a vibe, a reason to campaign and make /yourdudes/Lore is gay and cribbed 99% from history which inevitably reads more exciting anyway. What sci fi or fantasy property ever improved by being fucking expanded upon at the corporate end? At some point you're just going to have to be creative. People criticise historical gamers but I see more self expression and craft than people just rote following seasons of fucking lore, with its attendant spinoffs, everyquestion answered, might as well just stay in bed.
>>96465572I'm excited as all hell for it.>>96465578The Starcraft community is alive and well. World championship was less than a month ago. The player base is certainly smaller, but we're just as dedicated as ever and eh. More excited to play it with friends than to see it be massively popular.
>>96471480And which of the remaining 15 starcraft players wants to build and paint models instead of just playing the vidya they've been playing for the past 10 years or whatever?

>>96471538On average, it's up 100k players since 2020. Starcraft is plenty popular.Dunno why you think "it's not popular!" is an insult towards something.

>What is Genesys?Released in November 2017, Genesys is a pen-and-paper generic/universal RPG system and toolkit by Fantasy Flight Games and EDGE Studio, using a refined version of the system presented by their Star Wars RPGs (Edge of the Empire, Age of Rebellion, Force and Destiny). Its central mechanic is the Narrative Dice System, using pools made of specialized dice to create narrative results. The intention is for the system to be a highly flexible narrative system, adaptable to most any conceivable setting and premise.https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/products/genesys/https://edge-studio.net/>Where can I find the books?Check the Online Extras pastebin below for something useless.

I I have done some tinkering and discovered that the Genesys system was fed into the later versions of ChatGPT. I was able to get it to explain the system, understand the dice roll mechanics, suggest dice pools based on situations, and even propose interpretation of dice roll results. Still developing it but very promising so far.

>>96468335I ran with it last session. Its at its best when you're cracking an unattended NET without a runner or demon, as the ICE strictly cannot detect you until you hit their floor. If you slot Cloak you have as good odds of stealthing them as you would have slotting Speedy, but on a success you can just ignore them. They're completely inactive. I dodged a Killer using it and it made the other combat floors on the run doable.If you break stealth... well boo hoo you're now just running like you would before, only you've taken less damage, you have less chance of having your programs broken and if you roll really hot you'll manage to go all the way to the bottom without having to roll a single attack roll.I definitely recommend runners have more than one Deck prepared to try and sneak, but good Runners were already running at least two decks or planning for an equivalent.
What does canada look like in 2077? I want to do my next cyberpunk campaign there and am looking for inspiration/ideas.
>>96468335Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the point of stealth netrunning sort of a way to get around the fact that demons otherwise autodetect your entry into a NET architecture and can implicitly instantly raise an alarm?
>>96469962It is, though I would say as a Ref you shouldn't always have Demons always call 911 so to speak. They're written to be rather myopic and are probably busy doing their control node job; so unless they're being prevented from doing their tasks or its specifically a high security net where a Demon (or runner) specifically has the job of watching it, you probably shouldn't deploy the rent-a-kill-squad as soon as someone touches the NET.
>>96470066Another good excuse is cost. If you already have 2 control nodes, adding a third means going to a medium size net and that 7th floor adds +29,000€$ to total cost (all floors now cost 5,000€$, so the first 6 increase by $24,000€$).And this is headcanon (unless Rache's guide to the net mentions this) but because red netrunners treat the net as VR instead of going unconscious and jacking in I claim that netrunners observe the world more slowly, based on net actions (2 net actions twice as slow, also this doesn't mean they can dodge bullets because their body doesn't react fast, so if anything being hurt irl and feeling the pain twice as long is even worse). So a sysop plugged into a massive corporate net would feel like their 8 hour shift takes 16-24 hours, so instead they only jack in every few minutes (like an office employee shaking their mouse so Microsoft teams doesn't out them for being afk). Another excuse was that smart offices have multiple systems (nobody wants security hacked because an attacker accessed the Bluetooth thermostat) so the sysop is slowly switching between them.I sorta read the new rules and already forgot them, personally I'd just make a hardware that let's a player cloak once, NPC's roll once, and that settles it until they bump into the player. Less rolls the better.

>>96419634Not that other anon, but a uniform anti-Magic and anti-Mundane save doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Various things might let you deal with a specific martial maneuver, like dealing with a feint is probably more of a mental exercise than a physical one, similarly dodging is obviously more of dexterous activity than a physical one. Similar ideas can be applied to magical actions taken against you.Nat 20 worship is a dangerous path that an enormous procession of commentators have torn into before me. The final problem I can see is this encouraging a bunch of special pleading for every action in combat. That's not necessarily the worst thing, but that entirely depends on if you have the social gravitas to shut down stupid/awkward shit the instant you see it.
Sure are a lot of uppity playoids ITT.
>>96446490>agdg is the most mentally ill collection of schizos I have ever seenYeah they're pretty great
It could be kinda fun to put rigid timers on turns if you also add in the requirement to rp so people just blurt out whatever comes to mind and makes more or less sense.
You are the Game Master. In the middle of a fight, one of your PCs pulls a handful of sand out of his pocket and throws it at the enemy's eyes. Yes this PC was previously established as having sand in his pocket.Quick, without looking anything up, adjudicate this action in the manner you believe is most in line with your preferred system's rules.After you answer you may look it up. Did you get it right? I bet you didn't.

Why are some people so afraid to run games?I bought a beginners box for Star Wars: Edge of the Empire, on a whim when I was visiting a comic shop around 2012 or 2013 and had my first ttrpg Experience the following weekend as a GM.Since then, my players and I had a great time and most of them started running games on their own. So why the fuck do I see so many idiots online, mystifying the job of a GM? It should be easier than ever to run games today (yes even online three out of four games are totally fine, if you filter out the obvious morons).
>>96471227>Being a GM is easy, being good GM is not.Just avoid being a sperg, and playing with obvious spergs and you're almost guaranteed to have an alright session. The rest is having a feel for game structure and pacing. Those can only be acquired by playing. Nonetheless the majority of your games are going to be fine even if you haven't mastered those.If anything, just be aware of dead ends.
>why the fuck do I see so many idiots online, mystifying the job of a GM? The 2024 D&D DM Guide mystifies it, reminder this is the first and only book people read on the subject, if any
>>96471344Haven't read that shit. What does it say?
>>96471349That the point of the game is to simulate an actual play show like Critical Role (conversely the PHB tells players to learn to play from those), that your job as a DM is to make your players happy by casting Detect Thoughts and coming up with character arcs for their characters, that you have to be a fair referee and simultaneously to ignore rolls and game mechanics when they don't make for a good storytl;dr: loads of nonsense, often contradicting itselfCaptcha: DM04K

Then you get to Vivi (which is actually a best of 3 deck it doesn't perform in standard best of 1 that the majority of people play).Monowhite life gain is characteristic of lower ranks where it is by far the most dominant deck which is why your dumb ass keeps running into it. Play monogreen poison or green/black poison to get out of the lower ranks, then once you're past 90% Mythic you can try something else.The best ranking deck is artifact printer btw. but that requires a bunch of rares.
