yeah rpgs are pretty great
« on: June 26, 2011, 07:28:04 PM »
D&D is really silly as a concept and every time i play it it is bad but w/e

mage seems really cool but all the people that play it i've talked to are weird and fat

vampire has been fun every time i've played it but the shame is literally unbearable

every time someone explains exalted to me i zone out and think about dogs

one-roll engine games own without exception

pathfinder is like D&D but more shameful but the art is real good

does besm still exist

twilight 2000 is scary to read

unknown armies yes yes yes yes yes

call of cthulhu is the best

delta green is kinda gunporny but i can appreciate it

listen to the darkest of the hillside thickets

welp

Panty Explosion isn't quite what I was expecting it to be.

I believe ross only answers questions in the form of "Fucking Rifts, how does it work?"

the climbing skill has two separate percentages listed - one for climbing up and one for rappelling. Rappelling is 10% harder than climbing up.

Kevin Siembieda researched his shit and then quantified that research into carefully selected numbers to avoid blowing too many minds.

someone tried to convince me that Exalted was good by saying that you could be a mountain fighting a lake

is the Exalted sourcebook just a hollowed out Mage book with a discreet bag of crystal meth in it
