What TTRPG system has the best combat in your opinion? What makes it shine compared to other systems out there?
>>96466207Lancer. Damage/death system is fun.
>>96466207If the systems I've played, I think I enjoyed DH2e (and by extension the other FFG 40k games) the most. There are plenty of things to do in combat, both for melee and ranged, utilizing cover and terrain is rewarding, and unless you're playing a backline sniper you have plenty to do other than "Okay I half-action Aim and then shoot."Its too bad the people I played with were mouth-breathers.Surprisingly I've quite liked Wrath & Glory, I think its a decent successor even if it isn't as focused as the previous 40k rpgs. D6 dice pool has been more fun than I believed it would be.
>>96466304This because of this. PF2 is 4E but boring.
>>96466207ADND with a group who actually understands how weapon type vs ac and initiative and speed factors work. Or Mythras.
4e d&d is the best

Clerics can no longer cast spells while using a shield apparently. This is from the new starter set. WotC REALLY wants to destroy that class fantasy for some reason.
>why are random people replying to a public thread on a public forum? where's the downvote button?
>>96466294Maybe he's not involved in it because they do stuff like this.It's the oldest, most popular RPG in the world and yet has some of the most bad and confusing design decisions you could ever imagine seeing.
>>96467039The main bad design decision relating to clerics in D&D has always been the fact that they're too damn powerful. Yes, even back in the first edition they were too strong.
>>96465669It's a simplification of the actual rules because it's a fucking starter set. The actual rule is that you need your fucking hand free to perform material component, which as an exception can be substituted with a spell focus, of which holy symbols as an exception can be borne on a shield or fabric.
>>96467285except for the fact that they can't use swords and the best magic items in adnd are swords. not to mention a myriad of restrictions. nice try tho

>>96452031This was an idea I wanted to run with but could never figure how to make work.People who could remotely control mecha but suffering damage would be reflected back as psychic and physical damage to their actual body.
>>96462324I've seen players play scared before, even without mechanical implementation, but that was in games that really leaned into the horror elements and tropes. Whereas with mecha games (or Werewolf like that other game I was in), the assumption is often that your character is a hot-blooded badass, ready to go teeth-first against bigger and meaner mechs and monsters. So when you introduce a horror scene, it can be hard for players to square that previous concept with the requirements of the scene.>>96462336I confess, I haven't checked the server in a while, but have you managed to do any more Mekton games or try playtesting some of your game's potential rules?

>>96467373The dice obsession is funny because I only ever see people use virtual dice. For what it's worth people love their huge dice pools. Dragon-blooded have a better theme (the elements) but eh. Mechanically solars also suffer from being the first book - of course the other splats are gonna have cooler shit. Hell fire deebs have more going for them then all the solars splats put together. Lots of cool things you can do with fire. I mean it's not surprising - "Sun, excellency and gold" doesn't really leave a lot to work with.oh wow i can treat a 6 as a success. oooh wow amazingly flavorful charms.

Also Halsin would be terrible in bed and I refuse to accept otherwise.
In 2e solars were so poorly done that the coolest thing about them was the fact that they could use stuff from other splats. Imagine being so terrible that the only thing you can do that people remember is stuff that belongs to other splats.Well, that and charms that were so poorly balanced and require such high essence to use that games involving them are basically examples of freeform roleplay. It was honestly pretty impressive.

Good. This game was never anything but a ploy for creeps to get access to children.
I was at PAX West this past weekend, and Lorcana had many events scheduled, but when I walked by that area, it wasn't very busy. There were some people playing games, at most thirty. That's not really a big sign of anything, because PAX is more of a video game convention than a tabletop one, and it's possible that there were more exciting things to do at the convention than play Lorcana. Still, I tried to pay attention more to the types of people who were sitting at the tables. As you can expect, most of them were overweight. And all of them were very clearly adults. I'm talking 30s. Now, I'm not one to talk, being overweight and in my thirties as well, but people like to dress up to conventions and wear their fandoms on their sleeves, so you can easily get a whiff of the type of person someone is and what they're into.I think that the audience for this game is pretty much the Platonic ideal of "Disney Adult." So obviously nobody on /tg/ talks about it. Closest thing this board has to Disney fans are the /tv/ transplants in the Star Wars threads. Funny, the TF2 cosplay meetup on Friday has a handful of kids who were younger than the game, but I didn't see a single child at the Lorcana tables. I'm sure kids play this game, but it's no surprise who the main audience appears to be.
Don't think so.At my LGS(es) there's always just a couple Lorcana products on the shelf. Someone's buying them.I would say it's probably Union Arena that's forgotten, but maybe it was never remembered in the first place. Like One Piece and Gundam.

>>96452189This is insane, and reinforces the (until now, mostly fictitious) goal I had of eventually getting the World book in some printed format. >>96452189>Although, I am now in 2eanon's timezone, so perhaps scheduling playtest games will be a bit easier.I hope moving across country went well, hopefully finding a new gaming group isn't an issue. The time difference wasn't much of an issue, in any case in the last 3~4 weeks I couldn't really do anything on the weekends, this coming one I should be free (emphasis on 'should', half my colleagues decided to quit without notice... ) so if Sundays works still for you we can have a game then. >>96461600>Pretty good film.I remember having a lot of fun watching it, but it was back in theater, on one of my first dates. So, nostalgia may affect the result. same reason why I still enjoy watching Josie and the Pussycats... >Their version of Morlocks are what we could consider Neanderthals, or maybe devolved deepfolks. Is there a clear divide?In my mind, yes, Neanderthals are either very hirsute men with rough features, or actual Neanderthals, Devolved Deepfolks have a very varied outlook within even the same family or across the whole group, from looking ghoulish to bestial (Moreau's). You could argue that Apemen (and not Neanderthals) are a kind of Devolved Deepfolks, but I would suggest that Apemen have stable features across a bloodline, while Devolved Deepfolks are pretty much always playing the random-extra-organ-or-limb lottery every time they pop a new baby. >>96399975Do you mind if we change the name to this, to mirror the US one? I think, even without the Headdress, that it is still a bit too good. +1 AP over the average is worth more than -1 LP. Would you mind if we removed the Quickshot Colt as well as the Colt itself from the profile, and have it an option along with the Longbow for him to take (Longbow training instead of quickshot?) ?
