2024-05-28, 08:08 PMgbaji replied to a thread Works where you were surprised to learn you were in the minority of viewers in Media DiscussionsI'd buy this, except for the absurd consistency with which professional critics seem to apply (and reward!) the same formulaic set of "this is...435 replies | 19030 view(s)

2024-05-28, 04:50 PMI get where you are going with this, but the problem is one of both scale and power. While I have no issue with low to mid level stuff being...55 replies | 5113 view(s)

2024-05-10, 05:45 PMgbaji replied to a thread Tech Help Is wireless charging bad for phones? in Mad Science and Grumpy TechnologyI think the last two Android phones I had did not have replaceable batteries.

2024-05-10, 02:26 PMRight. And my point was that this is a pointless observation, since the real point is that "dropping" and "death" are the same thing in D&D (or close...302 replies | 30708 view(s)

2024-05-10, 12:18 PMBut not by looting the goods off of random people traveling along a road, right? Come to think of it, that would be a pretty interesting campaign...55 replies | 5113 view(s)

2024-05-09, 07:21 PMWell, except that the "point of effect" being discussed here is "impairment" not "death" ("wounds that don't drop you from shock", right?). Which...302 replies | 30708 view(s)

2024-05-09, 12:59 PMgbaji replied to a thread Works where you were surprised to learn you were in the minority of viewers in Media DiscussionsHuh. That's... interesting. I also got a very Shadowrun feel from the film, and thought it was very good for that reason. If folks looked at the...435 replies | 19030 view(s)

2024-05-08, 08:03 PMgbaji replied to a thread Works where you were surprised to learn you were in the minority of viewers in Media DiscussionsWell. crap. Me too! Yeah. I actually enjoyed both films.

2024-05-07, 08:13 PMgbaji replied to a thread Works where you were surprised to learn you were in the minority of viewers in Media DiscussionsI actually really liked that show too!

2024-05-07, 07:47 PMYeah. And this was where I was angling this whole line of reasoning. It's not the the players "refused to respond". It's more that their "tier1...516 replies | 32471 view(s)

2024-05-06, 06:47 PMThis was going to be my first suggestion as well. The only possible issue is the power curve. Hero system very very well handles the initial "start...25 replies | 2317 view(s)
