The Gaming Den

Well I just finished Dragonfall. It was a fun game and I liked it. The plot was fun, the setting was fun, and I don't care what anybody else thinks. But the ending PISSED ME OFF! After this gigantic battle, it feels like I have been shamalaned: "You think that what you did was important and det...

Apparently they are detailing metaplanes and spirits in 5es Aetherology. Thats what I read on the summary.

Also call me a bigot, but does anybody else find the way that the books (At least the ones im reading) very easily dismissive of anti-dragon people? I mean, im not calling for genocide, but the way the in universe characters dismiss fears about flying magical demigods that see metahumanity as toys t...

FINAL RETRECLONATION

Where the railguns at? As in which book are the affordable within restriction railguns?

Eh, I think its about Troll sized. Its mentioned to describe that the Hatchiman is supposed to be super "Dangerous despite being old" and that never made sense too me until I realized that its higher body means more armor and power for a smaller package which can fit in a corridor. I mean ...

Hachiman! I mean its perfect! Reinforced mount, medium sized but body 4 (So it can have armor 12). And with a house rule update thing, it can be retrofitted.

Also it looks like a T-1 and the only minigun in the game is LMG sized.

Neat. I was thinking to maybe get a minigun o replicate that T-1 look.

Also would anybody mind listing some of the best guns for drones to have assuming Im looking for non-war! guns for each different gun types (Im using different guns for different drone types)?

I've tried to suggest other systems (GURPS,HERO, even AS), but they're viewed as too "complex". For newbies, 5th seems to hit that sweet spot of new and comfortable at the same time. Hopefully it's the gateway drug to the other systems for them..."You've taken your first step into a ...

Is it just me or are adepts terrible? I mean sure theoretically they can be super powerful with enough Karma, but thats applicable to about anything. Everything they can do seems to be overpriced and punishes the idea of a supernatural fighting hero.

Or how about

Golem: The merchandising

Is it possible to crack copy protection on a program, and copy it, but leave the original in its basic form so that it continues to get updates? Because once a month cracking a copy protected program takes so much less time than coding your own, or even writing a patch (1 Flipping week per program p...

Well I arrive late to the party and I just wanted to add some ideas (Probably ones covered already): MORE SPACE! With Peak Oil, one could imagine Space mining becoming increasingly profitable. And with magical materials becoming possible, going to the moon to set up automated Hydrogen plants or mini...

Good point. Its just too much minutia. Im a rules lover and read rules of books but there is so much niggling minutia in Matrix rules. Thats a great example. I just want it to work the way it worked in MM BN. Just fuck making it realistic and go with metaphorical stuff. Because thats fun even if it ...

Hmm Well in 5e they say that Matrix damage hurts hardware, and that Agents share the same Matrix condition monitor as the hardware they are running on. Except IC for some reason. Which is a Software and doesn't take Hard damage. So I guess the reverse is true? Your playing Space invaders with a limi...

Also I know of Hackeystack but this is a seperate issue: Is it just me or is the only Penalty for an Agent Crashing (As apposed to a Persona Cashing) that you gotta boot em up again? Effectively only slowing them down for a round? And even Destroying a non-hot Persona seems to only cause a need for ...

I thought being Possessed by a Spirit was the best armor. I mean its hardened as well. Though if your attacked by magic stuff then your fucked.

Anyway why are Cyberlimbs bad?

Correct. I may have used the wrong term: No game is ever boring. Most of the time its frustrating. Because something can be fun and frustrating,

Some Games have Ethics. Do you think Capcom has that much sense? Considering their other micro transaction games? 99.99999% of other micro transaction games don't operate like that. The idea is to make them interesting enough, then make certain objects just necessary enough for your progress, and pu...

Never mentions it has to be pure blood. Give people energy drink samples. Every sip is a drink.

Well the advantage of Bust a Moves over flying drones is that they are MUCH MUCH cheaper then even the cheapest flying drone. Plus anthroform. Attacking by hand means you don't have to pay for a gun and pay for repairs when they get destroyed. A destroyed flying drone (That my GM will rule can carry...

Honestly the WOD Vampires kinda are designed with a "Fuck you" rules in every sense. Remember: The main power of the Vampires isn't their powers, or anything else. Its just the Blood Bonds. Three spiked drinks and the target is your thrall forever. Fuck, they can even feed you the blood yo...
