I am one of those weirdos, I guess. 3 has better tone and also I get to go John Brown on slavers

His wife’s dead and now he’s Cranking Kong

“What makes you think I sit here in silence?“

…

“Im stuck living with people who think anyone that is a shade of brown is less than human and that having an immigration policy is silly when we have guns and ammo. I cant reach these people and help them see that it cant be simplified in to black and white by calling them stupid and being dismissive of their feelings and now their identity has been tied into their “political” team.”

Considering you are still living with them, still describing them as racists, but are too afraid to call them racist…

“ I just use a different tactic to try to win over my neighbors”

And we can see how well that’s working out for you

Silence is complicity. From your own descriptions you are coddling people who would kill anybody who’s not white and you want to come in here, handwringing and taking up all the oxygen in the discussion because your feelings were hurt because you respect Bernie.

I guess someone who’s too afraid to call a racist a racist WOULD look up to Bernie.

I’d like to thank the Academy

I would name mine something shitposty like Sink’r’Swim

Shining Force! A TTRPG from 1992. The music and character design are really about a decade ahead of everything else that was available then. If you level one of your characters up to lv 10, you can “evolve” them into a different sprite that lets them wield better gear. This was my comfort game growing up, and was remastered for GBA in 2004. If you like it, don’t play the prequel, only the sequel.

I think it’s just a game cashing in on people who haven’t played Nintendo games. For these people the gameplay loop is something new.

I have seen a few locations that are just straight up dark souls/elden ring locations, made just different enough to get past laws.

A consideration is it will make game devs argue to be able to patent (I’m not a lawyer parasite idk the right word) game mechanics more harshly. You know capitalists would love to be able to sue the pants off any other game that competes with them in the same genre by saying “your health bar/ sword looks too similar to ours, pay up”

I’ve always argued that it also depended on your economic upbringing. I’m right on the cusp of millennial, but my parents couldn’t afford internet until my junior year of high school. Yeah, the internet existed but it might as well not have, outside of someone bringing halo to school on a usb I missed most of it.

My mother always said that if people bled from their eyes or had massive losses of weight it might work. Might.

I kind of see what she means, but I think they’d kill us all for the economy rather than shut down again.

I NOMINATE THE GRINCH!

Set sexuality is my initial preference. Games that handle this topic like Skyrim and Baldur’s Gate 3 don’t really have a lot to say about specific sexualities queer experiences, because they don’t want to alienate/make the player feel left out. One of the tweets mentions dragon age which is where I felt seen and heard for the first time. Another comment mentions it but in a game with well defined characters who have queer identities I can understand and want there to be restrictions. To say otherwise would be inauthentic to the story you’re trying to tell.

Not op, but your original notation is for pawns.

Hello! So, I did a quick cursory glance of the hero kids system, but likely missed some things, so please reach out if you have any questions.

The easiest way to convert 5e modules to a 2d6 based system:

The lowest you can roll on 2d6 is a 2, and the highest a twelve. So, we convert 5e’s 1-20 numbers to fit that. (Ability modifier in parentheses)

2d6 stats vs 5e stats

2 (-5) = 0 and 1

3 (-4) = 2 and 3

4 (-3) = 4 and 5

5 (-2) = 6 and 7

6 (-1) = 8 and 9

7 (0) = 10 and 11

8 (+1) = 12 and 13

9 (+2) = 14 and 15

10 (+3) = 16 and 17

11 (+4) = 18 and 19

12 (+5) = 20

Example conversion: In 5e, an orc has an Armor Class of 13, Hit Points of 15, gets + 5 to its attack roll, and deals 9 damage on a hit.

In this 2d6 system, it’s armor would be 8 (need to roll above an 8 to harm it) hit points would be 9, gets +4 to its attack roll, and deals 6 damage on a hit.

Using these conversions, it should be pretty easy to add new monsters or bad guys from DnD 5e modules. There’s a few free ones on dndbeyond to look over that may help give ideas for quests! I highly recommend Frozen Sick.

Obv spoilers ahead, but the last log in particular lays it out. https://lethal-company.fandom.com/wiki/Sigurd's_entries

Also I know, fandom gross, but I couldn’t find a better source while at work.

Minor spoilers ahead:

It’s not actually the scrap that’s valuable to them. Through logs in game you find out it’s actually your collective suffering, which is used to placate the entity and the monsters on nearby moons.
