I’m looking for a better TTRPG experience. Started with AD&D in satanic panic era, left, came back to 5E a half dozen years ago. Got a great group & GM but some things just don’t suit me. For one, wouldn’t mind being done with Hasbro. My biggest issues in D&D? Character regret, & swinginess. Rolling up a character idea...
And more stuff - possibly some teen/preteen players so at least need to have options to tone down / cut out extreme bloody sex horror. Also, I believe in rulesets & settings are separate things. Genre less important to me as fixing the problems I mentioned.
Hey I know it’s been a minute. I appreciate all the suggestions! Some of these were already on my radar but no direct experience so, thank you! I’ve decided to grab some of my past 5e characters that I feel I know pretty well, throw together an equivalent in some of these systems, & try to solo them, see what I learn! If anyone wants to recommend good actual plays I’d love it!!? Prefer YouTube over podcast but either will do in a pinch. If I fall in love I’ll definitely come back & share! Happy Gaming!
I think I may have seen Glass Cannon play this on New Game Who Dis? I thought it looked fun but isn’t there like massive heaps of stuff to roll up just to play? Not only your characters whole life so far but like the whole star system? I’ll admit I was intimidated.
No lie, when first round of roster cuts were made, & they were talking about having too much talent at RB, I was asking why don’t we trade CEH & keep one of the guys who really showed up in pre-season that we let go. Glad the coaches knew more than me rn
6 points in the first half, average <5 ppg in the second half all season. Statistically, we won’t win this one even if GB never score again. Sure hope the boys prove me wrong.
Poor officiating all around left a bad taste in the mouth there. Put a taint on the game for both sides AFAIC. All game long the Packers were wrestling, shoving, throwing guys to the ground after the whistle. Never even brought up, by refs, coaches, announcers. Not just a little, more like consistently.Watch the build up to Pacheco’s ejection, our guy had enough of it & fought back - ejected. No need to talk about the non-calls for PI. Pretty obvious to everyone not in stripes. In fact I’m surprised it was ever called at all because they were blatantly indifferent. I didn’t watch closely but I can’t believe as much blitzing as there was that there was almost no holding calls, something that’s usually called heavily. I can’t say we would’ve won or not except for the bad calls / no calls because they just ruined any chance to see what a fair game would be. There should straight up investigate the ref crew.
Man our HC & QB got so much class. Everybody saw the same stuff we did, everyone wants to ask them about it, they roll off of it. I love Andy about Pacheco - got to have more composure, “even when they’re shoving his head in the dirt”. & Patrick saying he wouldn’t ever speak out about folks having fire cause that’s where their game comes from. We ain’t gonna get in trouble talking crap but we got our boys back, too.
Damn it where’s my sideline hotline? I seen Jalen all alone in the backfield & yelled watch the QB draw but no one heard me. They sent the blitz & ran right past him.
Yeah I’m kinda curious what Mahomes’ comp % was vs his average. A lot of things going on in the game, lots of situational plays & individual ups n downs. but the number of balls boinging off of people seemed way above norm.
Dumb idea, I know nothing about this all. What about alternatively opening up across-the-border purchases, allowing people to legally buy from other countries at a fraction of current US prices. Drug companies can still set their US, uncontrolled prices at whatever they want, & no one has to buy it from them. It’d be like, a Free Market at work. I know this is oversimplified & there’s a lot of complications I’m not aware of, but, just a thought. Also, speaking of unconstitutional, isn’t group collusion to manipulate the market a violation of Sherman Anti-Trust law? Just saying.
For sure a valid question. My presumption is that the same drugs legally produced & sold under that country’s regulations would have a reasonable factor of safety. Good enough for their own people anyway. I think also if I’m faced with the decision, no insulin because I can’t afford it, or drugs only approved to Country X standards, I’m already in a risky situation. For sure some people are already doing this & having to do so illegally.
What’s right for me?
