I haven't kept up with 40k lore in a long while but I just found out that they brought this guy back for no real reason and I find it really cringe. What I liked about the old lore was that humanity was in decline, the Imperium that once was is a long distant memory, the heroics of the past is shoruded in uncertainty and ambiguity and all that remains is the rot and decay. Now we have a dude from the past that has just come back and he is totally badass and cool and is gonna fix everything and also any ambiguity that makes the past mysterious and interesting is now gone because there are people alive who can backup what happened. It feels less grimdark and more marvel super hero shit. I don't really like it.

Vista edition

>Cyberpunk 2020 vs. Cyberpunk RED?
Cyberpunk 2020 is the second edition of the Cyberpunk TTRPG that focuses on simulation gameplay and has a black trenchcoat aesthetic.

Cyberpunk RED is the fourth edition of the Cyberpunk TTRPG that is set after Cyberpunk 2020 following the Fourth Corporate War, focuses on more balanced gameplay and is more streamlined but has less content.

You can discuss Shadowrun here too because I also feel bad for those guys.

Is Shadowrun 6e decent? I heard the release corebook was trash, but since then they've released two updated editions that fix alot of the problems.

I want something Cyberpunk adjacent to run for my group. Getting tired of doing another Red campaign and figure Shadowrun is just Cyberpunk with higher power scaling and more build variety. Basically the things I try to homebrew into Red anyway.

>>97221936
Unless they fundamentally altered the core systems my understanding was that 6e was irredeemable garbage that played like FATE; in which case you could have just played fate and cut out the middle-man.

Okay cool. I'll avoid and look for something else or wait for that Anarchy 2.0 to come out. Preview looked decent.

Also off topic, but why do designers have a hard on for rules lite "narrative" style games these days? Why is there such a big push to reinvent the wheel instead of just reiterating and improving on what previously worked.

Games where Intelligence is the best stat?

>>97217507
Starfinder 1e because hacking is broken and it's an INT skill. Basically everything in the game can be either reproduced or circumvented via hacking. You can hack doors, alarms, vehicles. You can hack people's phones, even their weapons and armor. It's the best combat skill, the best social skill, and the best utility skill. And it all hinges on a single kind of skill check: Computers, which is INT-based. You can even get wireless hacking at a very low level, allowing you to basically hack anything in Bluetooth range, removing the need to actually touch what you're hacking or look suspicious while doing it.

The developers released a supplement later on that tried to nerf hacking by splitting it up into three separate skills, forcing hackers to at least choose one or two things to be absolutely broken at, rather than bending the game over and fucking it constantly. However, the devs didn't have the balls to just straight-up patch it, so they released the change as a set of "optional rules," which--when a playgroup is even aware of them--are generally ignored.

Another Infernals edition edition

An epic high-flying role-playing game about reborn god-heroes in a world that turned on them.
Start here:http://theonyxpath.com/category/worlds/exalted/

>That sounds cool, how can I get into it?
Read the 3e core book (link below). For mechanics of the old edition, play this tutorial:http://mengtzu.github.io/exalted/sakuya.html
It’ll get you familiar with most of the mechanics.

No Inspire action is pretty meh for Social Influence. Teamwork is also way too strong, I'd cap it somehow.

IMO they named too many of the Eight generals. Also they did that thing with Ipithymia that they did with the Lover and made her sexless.

At that point, just make a different character so that people who liked her can feel free to port her forward without much hassle.

you have to be within 12" of the enemy units, retardo boy. That means on their turn they move 7" or more, then setup 1-6" closer, then charge 2d6-pick-highest.
And that's being nice and assuming his tank is in front of his army next to his infantry. If it's screened Behind any other units, you won't even be able to EVER get within 12" of it with a predator, dumbfuck.

I got thinking recently, and I feel like a big problem with games where the main appeal is the vibe/feel of the setting rather than unique mechanics/crunch isn't the idea of an artistically driven game in and of itself. The problem, IMO at least, is more that A: a lot these games aren't just narrative-before-mechanics, the mechanics are a complete afterthought, and B: they're all aping the exact same vibe. If we only had 1 or 2 games attempting to capture the "grimdark" vibe it wouldn't be so bad but it feels like everything is going for variations of the exact same aesthetic/narrative flavour. At least Turnip28 had some degree of whimsy in the actual fluff, but with Trench Crusade, Mork Borg and a billion other "the artstyle is Streaking Grime" settings I personally am feeling grimdark fatigue.
I dunno- I feel like an art/vibe driven game with an actually unique or at least underutilized vibe (purely as an example, aping the bright and colourful look of 2nd edition 40K and its contemporaries) and decent mechanics would be good.
