General RPG discussions Options

[mirocu]

Yeah.... A general RPG discussion thread in the General RPG Discussion section

Basically the idea here is to discuss RPGs in general (duh! ) So if we want to compare RPGs with each other and/or the elements within the term we can do that here


To quote a very good RPG; Please, share your thoughts

Kobolds!

Kobolds!

They’re super cute. I sometimes feel bad for slaughtering them.

I never played any of those, mirocu. In general terms, they are all considered RPGs, although if I'm correct, we can't create our own characters, correct?

They are super-mean, though!

Did anybody else get involved with The Fantasy Trip? This was a table-game similar to Dungeons & Dragons, but its rule system was a lot more down-to-earth. Humanoid characters were more fragile and fallible. No humanoids with hundreds of hit-points, for instance. We used DnD to enhance TFT, because DnD had hundreds more characters and additional rules. But for our base game (the actual dice-rolls) we used Fantasy Trip.

We even made our own rules! I added Feudalism to our game after learning about it in high school. IN a way, this was the very first version of modding our game.

No, that's where it fails to qualify. But one can develop the character we get in terms of what powers/abilities we want to focus on and thereby "create" a unique character, albeit in very limited ways.
