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.

also has training times for mortals (double of exalts)

>>96603252
Tell me more about 1e Thaumaturgy. How does it look compared to its successor editions?
>>
>>96603528
It's very versatile, bind demons, enchant gear, make buff potions. You could build a mortal who could give a non-optimized dawn a dangerous fight, and hold their own against younger dragon-blooded (at the cost of a lot of downtime and investment, and remember that 1st edition dragon blooded didn't yet suffer from the "not a real exalt" syndrome they contracted later). You could do a lot of handy non-combat stuff as well.
It was very XP intensive and suboptimal for actual exalts to get into.
2nd edition is similar, IIRC, but the celestials have run out much further ahead of everyone else generally and it didn't keep up.
3rd edition's thaumaturgy is spit in the face of the setting the way a lot of 3rd edition is.
>>
>>96603363
Thaumaturgy technically not being a thing, is only from 3e onwards.

The card is based on key mace, which is on the list of female monsters. But the memento version isn't so explicitly speaking from an outside source it isn't female.
Taking a good guess you're the person with the pedo binder, I think you're a bit obsessive and you might expect a visit from the party van some day. It would be really funny if they use that binder as evidence though. Disregard if you're not that person.

>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.

Humanity Gain makes a lot more sense compared to Humanity Loss, most of the latter being nonsensical because what >>96603345 already mentioned
>>
Rockerboy who is a fujo fanfic writer.
>>
>>96603555
If you use them both together a number of actions lose Humanity Costs entirely or net to positive:

For example, lets say that 'murderous ideation' means 'planning a cold blooded killing'. Then if you plan to kill a gangster who is poised to kill the owner of a bodega you would take a 1d6 hit for planning a murder, but then you'd gain 2d6 from saving their life.

For another example, you torture an enemy to get the combination from their safe to steal-back something important from them or halt their plans. You would take 1d6 for torturing them, but you'd gain 1d6 back from defeating someone.

The general jist is that justified or moralized violence can keep you entirely level; while wanton or cruel acts will see you spiral. Principled action and trying to maintain an ethical code will generally recover you HL in the long term.

Finally with the HQ rules and lifestyle rules for certain levels of accommodation you're netting some HL from there as well. The average edgerunner then can indulge in limited torture (especially when 'the ends justify the means) and violence, having become acclimated to threats of being killed and killing. What shakes them then has to be substantially dehumanizing, gruesome or soulcrushing; and generally only really grody stuff will cause more than a 1d6 hit.

Broadly while some tweaks may make sense, I think these charts are very good; with even murder-hobo character not swinging wildly in humanity so long as they're being cruel for sensible motivations. The only characters that will crater immediately are the unnecessarily and unrealistically cruel.
>>
Is it just me or locate/remote and control/remote in CP2020 are busted? It's not particularly hard to create a strength 10 controller program (difficulty 20 to create, perfectly doable) which can then auto succeed every time. I know you have to make a different program for each type of object you want to control but the weight of a strength 10 controller is just 2 MU so you can have more than one, and honestly just one to control cars and maybe one for electronic doors should be more than enough.
I assume that you can only hijack cyberized cars and I assume those should be relatively rare, but none of that's written as far as I know. The example in the corebook makes it sound like you can hack and take over anything.

It's somewhat related, but I like the idea of "half-breeds"/hybrids making fashion choices that reflect some physical aspect(s) of one of their parents. As an example, a hood, headpiece, or neck covering that imitates the hood of a cobra, the decorative scale mail-like jewelry to imitate scale patterns on a lizard, or stylized garments with excess fabric around the arms (Japs have something close to what I'm thinking about. I think it's called a haori) to imitate the wings of bird/harpy.

SRO and Hologram can get a tad weird rules -wise. Otherwise just be a bit careful about Large and Tiny races, as the size in Starfinder1e is not handled particulary well.
Don't let anyone play non-enhanced Envoy as that is just a source of frustration and rage quits. Especially if there is also Operative in the same party. Even enhanced is pretty shit, but at least you can work around it a bit.

Enhanced had rules for it. Basically you don't lose class features, and get extra feats on levels where archetype lacks options.
