@goldfish Yeah. All the Bloodlines I wrote for Reno are fair play where I am concerned! Go for it!

@arkandel Custom Bloodlines seem like a waste, given the number of fun ones already written.

@thenomain Promethean is hard as hell to understand even on TT. If you didn't adapt them, I would understand. I just like the splat!

@ganymede I'm with Ganymede. That game suffered for its lack of Bloodlines.

In my opinion? Give each Covenant/Clan 3 or 4 available Bloodlines in your setting, so things don't get too crazy, but that way at least you have them available and players have a nice selection to pick from.

Whatever you do, my suggestion is that you write some miniblurbs about them AT LEAST, ground them in the city and the Praxis. One of the main issues with Bloodlines that I've found is that they are thrown on the game like they will explain themselves, and that feels sort of weird to me? If you use the Khaibit, for example, how do they work in Los Angeles?

@thenomain said in Descent Reboot:

Promethean is on the list.

It's on the list under "Never", but it did make the list.

Cruel, man. Cruel.

Lacking a Starship Troopers AND a Silverhawks option, I GUESS I would go with SW.

@surreality That is very possible, yes.

@surreality ...What? Any new game, especially a nWoD game right now, is going to have scenes in a week. Not saying they are slow or fast, I don't know, but I think what you said right there made no sense at all.

@derp Wrong Sunny! XD

@arkandel I feel metaposing is a great way to feed others why your characters are doing what they doing, and letting your partner use that information thematically. If they realize my character is doing X because they are afraid of rejection, they can then guide the scene to approach that theme, instead of assuming my character is a dick because WoD bruh!

Also, although I like to give others metainformation on my characters, I rarely hand over the core of these issues or why they as they are on poses. That is earned through RP.

As a matter of time, if I had less time I might feel more strongly over long poses, but as is, I work while I RP, so 20~40 minutes lets me get a lot of stuff done.

Basic spelling and grammar.

3 paragraphs +

20~40 minutes per pose is perfect

Wiki code at will. %t makes posting logs harder

3 PR = I'm out. Can't get any char dev out, can barely keep up not being an English speaker, and it just feels like a waste of time.

If you are metaposing, give me insight on your character's mindset, even if I can't pose about it with my own char. I like to understand the thought process of characters, and really love when my partner puts thought into that. If you are metaposing bitchy shit or flowery stuff just to pad your pose, RP gets harder.

@ganymede Unfortunately, wikidot is a huge weakness. MediaWiki? Sure! But I tried and failed with wikidot enough to know that is not my jam.

@auspice said in Stranger Than Fiction MUX:

Mod Voice
I have gotten report of a supposed "MSB plot" to take down this game. I don't know if there is any truth, whatsoever, to this. I don't know if it was a joke, if it was a few people trolling and when they got found out they decided to point fingers this way to try to cover their own ass, or what.

What I do know is that no one on the moderation staff here condones any sort of behavior in regards to 'taking down' games, trolling games, or otherwise misbehaving on them. And we certainly don't appreciate anyone doing so in MSB's name.

... does it REALLY need to be said, in a Mod Voice, that MSB doesn't condone with... ... plots to take down low activity games with weird policies?

Hi @Bobotron !

First off, awesome to see you working on the project again! I have some questions!

1. Do you plan on having any territory gimmicks?

2. What about blood?

3. If you are using WoD, are you controlling Willpower too?

4. Are there Minor Templates? What is their role? Do you really need them?

5. Are there going to be NPCs? Who is going to ST them?

6. How do you plan on handling non-combat characters? Are they a viable template? If so, why? Are there systems for Mental/Social person peoples?

7. Can I be the world's first vampire assassin?

8. Is there anything like Prestations? Is it coded?

9. Is there any sort of loot box system? We need one, Bobo.

10. Are the vampires in your game more civilized, or are they the good ol' rawrrawrrawr, post pictures of your naked ghoul on the "Elysium" board and ride bikes all day long? You know, classic Requiem stuff.

@ganymede

Busted!

@tinuviel No there isn't. Don't let them lie to you.

@ixokai Indeed. The moment I see people on pub chan going 'lol **** ****lord you ***** ******* here are logs lol' is the moment I go 'nope' and bail.

@arkandel Cate did amazing with a shitty character. She really brought Hela to life. And yeah, it is TOO stupid at times, but overall a very good ride. I would put it under GOTG2 and very few other movies from Marvel, but it is WAY better than most of their stuff. Despite the "THE MONSTER HAS A FUNNY VOICE U GAIS" moments, and having no dramatic weight, it is a good 'shut down your brain and laugh' movie.

@shelbeast Unfortunately, this was my experience as well, as I commented to a friend of mine as I left the place many moons ago. As it seems it was not an isolated event, there it is, I will give it the SunnyJ Seal of Scorn.

Powerful stuff. Soul-rattling.

An interesting look of what is getting talked about in the gaming industry.
