So, here's how things tend to work in lots of these games (though not all).

All players except for one create a player character (PC) and that's the one they play.

The last player doesn't create a PC, he is the game master / dungeron master / <insert term>. The game master thinks up the game world, comes up with interesting stuff for players to explore, controls all of the non-player characters, throws challenges at the player characters. That's essentially what I would be doing. It takes a good amount of time to prepare the game world and fill it with interesting stuff, so that is why I said it would take 10-14 days.

However, it's not like I must be the only one who has a say in what the game world is going to be like.

Admitedly, since I only have experience with fantasy games such as D&D, that's the kind of game I feel the most comfortable with. But there's lots of wiggle room as to what the world might look like.

I've seen people play Basic Fantasy and MYFAROG on youtube. From Varg and Lindybeige I've heard D&D isn't super great. I know how the general mechanics of a tabletop RPG work.

I've also watched a few vids on being a GM because some friends wanted to play MYFAROG but we never got around to it.

If you watch Varg or Lindybeige I've watched all their rpg related vids.

Aha, yeah I think so. Our local RPGs are weird in that they apparently don't give a shit about copyright. IIRC, D&D couldn't use the word hobit because it was copyrighted, but we have been using it for like 20+ years and nobody gives a shit.

Now then. There's different things to notice or say about role palying games.

There's the "hard" rules. Those can be somewhat similar to video games or board games. You cast a fireball spell, you do 5-30 damage in a radius of 30'. You whack someone with a sword, you do 1-8 + your strength modifier damage. That sort of thing. Those differ a lot in different games. In that respect, D&D is only one of many games.

But then there's other important things, such as <to be continued>

So, the other important thing is what goes on around the table IRL. Or chat or PC when playing on the Internets, obviously.

These games have kind of a social dynamic to them which is what tends to make people nervous, I suppose. It's not exactly embarrassing to roll the dice and see that your fireball did 21 damage. But to do that, you first need to get to the part where you cast it. Which in turn invovles being in a situation, presumably some dangerous situation. But how do you get there? How does one even begin playing? Somebody has to start talking first, obviously. Usually it's the GM, simple enough. But how do I know as GM what to say, and how do you guys know what to reply and when, when to interrupt me and ask questions, all that stuff.

That tends to differ in different games as well, but not nearly as much as the "hard" rules that I talked about earlier.

So, who gets to talk when and stuff.

There are rarely hard rules for this. But there are almost always some other rules which give you some sort of boundaries.

As I said, the GM basically controls the whole world. He gets to build the world for all of you people to play in, and then he gets to paly anything from the world that you guys interact with. He also usually is the first one to start talking when the game begins or is resumed.

>>13807

>>13810

Aha, I see. I only asked because Fallout 1 and 2 originally intended to use D&D rules, but didn't get the rights, so they made up their own, which is however somewhat similar.

So if you knew the older fallouts, you would have a closer knowledge of D&D's hard rules. Though again, I would rather not use D&D because it is pretty complicated and the handbooks are long as fuck and all, and written communication is already pretty long, so there's no need to make it longer and by using such rules.

Oh its not about studying, really. It's a bunch of people streaming their ojnline game(s) (and uploading it to youtube which is where i watched it).

But they have an interesting format. They have one DM and 4 players every session, but almost every session, they rotate the players. They invite new people fairly often, some of which become regulars, some of which never show up after the first game. It's all based in the same world, around the same town on the edge of the civilization. So they all kinda share this space together, it's quite interesting how the actions of one group leave permanent mark on the world which then others get to hear about or interact with.

YouTube embed. Click thumbnail to play.

Here is a bit of a display of Roll20. Skip to 7:30. They are using some sort of overlay over it I think. But the thing to the right is a mixture of chat and a tool that you can use to roll easily. And the part in the centre is where you can have a map should you need it or other things.

So we have

- players who play PCs and 1 player who is the GM, >>13745

- some rules are kinda similar to PC games >>13785

- there's some mysterious social dynamic in taking turns of who gets to say stuff when and what stuff they can say

- GM creates the world >>13812

So, I guess the fourth post was meant to elaborate on

>who gets to talk when and stuff

but didn't much.

The when part isn't that hard. I guess it kind of comes naturally.

The GM describes stuff and asks you what you guys do next, sometimes you just say what you do, sometimes you all talk and arrange what your next step is as a group.

Sometimes you ask the GM questions to get more information. "He's looks at you angrily and lunges at you, what do you?" "Is he armed?" "No." "Then I just punch him."

Sometimes the GM kind of wants to end the scene and transition to another one, but you don't want to just yet. That would be a good time to interrupt and tell: "Okay, so you guys looted the bodies and continue with your journey" "Wait, I wanted to use my healing spell before we move on."

Yeah, such things may happen, and those would be the cases of winning, but it doesn't mean ending the game and having won.

There do exist some games which kind of assume an end. Mountain Witch is a game that is about a group of samurai travelling to meet and kill some sort of witch living on the mountain, and I think each player has some hidden goal. If they achieve that goal, you could I suppose say they won.

But D&D-like games don't usually such an explicitly stated end goal.

As I said, it depends. The smol game system I was kinda thinking of has no special limitations on what you can combine. But you only start with very little in terms of gear and abilities (two of them, combined… the game treats weapons and abilities in a similar manner… so you can have a lightning spell and a sword, for example, or two different spells, or eg. sword and shield). And you use different stats for casting and swinging a sword.

>I guess this calls for another tutorial, coming right up.

So, there is this notion that, in some situations at least, players ought to differentiate between player knowledge and character knowledge.

There are things the player can know which his character couldn't possibly know. Suppose one of you guys is good at sneaking about and you agree that he should scout ahead of you. He sneaks into a room. "Okay, you are in the room. There is no one here, but there's a table in the middle with a red gem on it." "Nice, I walk up to it and take the gem, hiding it in my pouch." "I storm into the room and try to stop him from taking it!" Obviously, IRL you wouldn't know he was taking the gem, so it's not fair to act like you did.

It works the other way around too though. Sometimes the player doesn't know something the character would. In the game world, there may be different social customs, for example. Unless your character lived under a rock, they are aware of those. So if you try to do something that your character would know was a good idea, it's common that I inform you about it and allow you to change your mind. You are of course free to ask about things too. "He's offering 20 gold for the job, is that considered a lot for a dangerous job like this?"

There are some situations when it's better to just ignore the distinction though. I can't think of a better situation, but suppose we are at the beginning of the game and we decide that you guys want to get together as a group of people in the game (instead of starting as a group from the beginning). Character A walks into a market place looking for something. This would be a good time to metagame (ignore the distinction between player / character knowledge) and so player B proposes "Hey, I guess I could go to a market place, I haven't eaten today yet and feel like having some fruits, would you look at that, I bump into <character A>" It's simply situations where we all know that the game would suck if something did/not happen, or that you guys would just keep doing something until you succeeded (kept wandering around until you met one another, say).

It could take long, however if you uys would enjoy it, it's fine by me. Though again, with what I said in mind. It's the perfect time to break that distinction in knowledge.

I guess you could say that it's one of the rarer cases of when the game is not about how things turn out in the end, but rather about what was the exact experience that led to the end that was pretty much given.

Right, I get it now.

It's not about the destination, it's about the journey, kind of deal. However, I think some things should be disclosed to all of us, like when someone levels up, when they kill something, that kind of thing, so we can get a vague idea of where to start looking, if we want to meet up.

However, I get the feeling it'll be a pain to host the game like this, so please do not regard my opinion; please wait to hear from the others.

Precisely. Some people play by this rule even in almost all situations. So they may for example do something that could be considered stupid or suboptimal because in their opinion, it will make the game, or the story, more interesting.

I once played a game (well, a single session) in which players get to explicitly form goals for their characters in the form of a question. "Will I get my brother out of this mess?", "Will I win lady Winermere's heart?". We played an inquisitor and her retinue. I played a character who was the son of (in)famous inquisitor, but himself wasn't very high up in the ranks of the inquisition, which bothered him, he wanted to prove himself. But ironically, he was touched by magic and had some supernatural abilities (which would get him burned if anyone found out). I as the player of this character chose the exact opposite goal, "Will I bring shame to my father's name?". And in the game then tried to get into sitautions where I could accidentally unleash some magic powers (but at the same time such that it wasn't painfully obvious that it was me, or that magic happened).

>However, I think some things should be disclosed to all of us, like when someone levels up, when they kill something, that kind of thing, so we can get a vague idea of where to start looking, if we want to meet up.

Yeah, as I said, in that beginning phase, it definitely should be out in the open. If we decide, we do not need to keep secrets in front of the other players and just agree that you guys won't "cheat" (ie. won't break the character-player distinction).

In some of the RollPlays (the vid I linked), the GM asks the players how this or that makes them feel, or he offers the players to describe a flashback to everyone. So that is giving the other players information their charcaters would not have, necessarily.

I do regard your opinion.

One last wall of text and then I shuddup.

>>14929

>>who gets to talk when and stuff

>The when part isn't that hard

Now then, the more problematic part is what does one say.

The obvious thing is that since you control your character, you get to guide their actions. But that still doesn't tell the whole story. Before you make any decision, it's fair to ask questions.

Common ones would include asking about sensory perceptions. Just how tall is this giant, can I hear any movement in the room, you get the idea.

You can also ask about things that are kinda subjective. "Does the guy look suspicious" is a matter of one's own judgement, but may be a fair question to ask.

Likewise, as I said, you can ask about things your character might know but you don't. Cultural things. "What's the local custom as regards corpses, do people usually get buried?" But also things relating to your character's craft. If you're a warrior, you will know more about weapons than your IRL self does. If you encounter some weird magical beast, you might know more about it if you're a wizard than if you were a thief. Those matters partially depend on the system as well though. If there's a Knowledge (arcana) skill -such as there is in D&D 3.5- then that kind of knowledge is subsumed under that skill.

Finally, what do you get to do controlling your char? You can attempt nearly anything you can imagine someone could do IRL.

There are things that you just get to do. Lifting your arm to wave at someone and other such trivialities.

As regards more difficult stuff, there's usually some way in the game that makes you roll the dice to decide. That's not to say that saying "I stab the fucker in the face" is considered breaking the decorum or something. Just be ready that you will be asked to roll dice to see whether you do, m'kay?

One thing related to this is considering 1) time constraints, and 2) other people's agency.

So, you can for example in theory say "I'm going to rummage through the cupboard and look for clues. Then I also look under the bed, on all the shelves, and try seraching the bookcase whether there isn't any secret compartment behind the books." But if you aren't alone in the room (eg. thre's other players), take into account that they will want to do something too. People might try to stop you doing what you are, or ask you about it or otherwise pester you.

Finally, there's often a combat system present which might have turns, which probably translate to some particular amount of time… So, a turn might be 6 seconds, or 10, or whatever. So that's something to keep in mind.

Also, as regards combat, although it may kinda look like a (simple) PC game, try not to think of it that way. So, when someone is standing in front of you trying to whack you in the face, it's not a good time to try to uncork and chug a potion. Besides, where is the potion anyway? You've been travelling and stuff, you ran as you chased that goblin to get him before he gets reinforcements, you jumped over the dyke, you climbed the slope before… surely the potion is somewhere in the depths of your backpack, possibly wrapped in cloth so as not to break. It's going to take some time to pull it out…

Ah, so the combat will actually be interesting, to where each movement could be a life or death decision. I'm looking forward to this, all the sudden.

Aha, I hope it will. If we use Roll20 and I have lots of time (well, it's perhaps more a matter of will and patience), I could prepare things that would compensate for the fact that it's written. So that even though it'll be a text game, it might be swift compared to the rest of the game, because you can just move your token around the map and roll and stuff.

It is pointful. I am glad to hear to hear it.

I have thought things up, but I have not put the effort into it to put them all together into a single world yet.

Here's some minor points. I can try to write more about them.

- there are no large empires and kingdoms in the immediate area, it's all small kingdoms and duchies of various sizes… probably two to three should be enough for start

- the beginning location (and honestly most of the game, i would hope) is on the fringe of what is called a civilised world… sure, there are people and other races living past this border / frontier, but they are not considered important… they do not have proper infrastructure, there's wilderness about

Not exactly.

Such creatures would probably be hunted to near extinction, or would have learned of locations heavily populated by humans, and would know to not venture there.

Though, you're right, if we go off in the woods, we should be able to encounter such powerful beasts if we go far enough.

Aha, I suppose not. Presumably the characters will begin in a kingdom, so they will have their king.

As regards the ogres, as an example, yeah, they would be rare in the civilised lands, but they will be far from erradicated in the wilderness.

The frontier should be formed by a combination of an poorly hospitable natural environment as well as some other stuff. Whether it be fantastic (but considered natural in the world… such as giants or trolls or what have you), or outright supernatural, together it keeps the kings and dukes uninterested in delving deeper into and claiming those territories.

Yes, but a king to the kingdom from which the character hails. There is no leader who rules over all of the holds, is what I've collected. Unless that isn't true?

I think it'd be an interesting development if grotesques, such as orcs/goblins/ogres/trolls/goblins/etc end up teaming up and taking on humanity, and the humans put their differences aside, as kingdoms, and team up, as a species, against the grotesque creatures of the outlands.

Something else that could be interesting is if humanity lost, but I don't know, perhaps I enjoy losing too much.

Hmmm, I see. It might happen, but I would keep all of that for later, so that it all unfolds in the game, and players may keep a role in all this. Have the chance to foil all of it before it happens, or to help the humans team up. Or help the goblinoids for whichever reasons.

Nothing wrong with that. Humanity losing would mean enslavement and hiding. Both means more opportunities for daring heroes and mercenaries.

So the civilizations will be mere towns, then? My apologies, I suppose I imagined this in correctly; humanity will be far more in danger than I had thought.

Excellent.

However, now I'm curious as to what humanity's relationship with other humanoids will be. Will there be allusions to racism, or will we be able to get along well enough as to share settlements? If that's the case, what will half breeds be thought of?

No, I was just asking what you meant by holds. That is to say, I thought you at first asked whether there would be some sort of supreme king or emperor… did you mean like keeps, forts, castles, that sort of thing? Fortified towns and walled cities?

There may be. My idea was the basic races would get along more or less fine. There still might be kind of positive racism among them, I suppose? Generalizations and such. Sharing settlements - maybe? What do you guys think? The least that could happen is that members of these races are allowed to live within societies that are not of the same race (and vice versa). But idk about truly mixed societies (like 50:50 or even 40:60).

There would definitely be distrust and racism among those races and everyone else though.

I suppose settlements that are further away from the outlands could afford the time required to build walls. However, settlements in/near the forests would be too busy tending to the creatures of the night to be able to build walls, and they would likely lack the funding required to build them, thanks to having to constantly rebuild from attacks by the beasts of the woods.

>idk about truly mixed societies.

I'd imagine there would be some human settlements that could mix with dwarves and elves. For those who wish to live within nature's embrace would be able to sympathize with the elves, and those who are of a more greedy disposition would be able to sympathize with dwarves.

I suppose I should correct myself; the majority of human settlements on the forest's edge/interior should be unimpressive. There should be one or two larger settlements that are well protected near the forest. After all, lumber is a value resource, you know.

Yes, however, tree niggers are also below humanity; their only redeeming factor is their women. Don't even get me started on dark elves.

Yeah, there has to be some sort of a stronghold beyond which the nasties will not go, after all. If it was all small undefended villages, they would be pillaged and raped out of existence, presumably. Although! That depends on what keeps the civilised folk from the frontier. It could be that there is nore real danger that the wilderness would somehow strike back and try to destroy the cities and villages; it's just that it would be preventing people to take it over. So there could be less of a defense. There would still have to be some keeps and suchlikes, naturally, for the lords to keep control over the region.

I'd imagine the elves,as well as the beasts of the forests, would be keep the humans from stepping too far into the woods. Though, if a settlement is small enough, they may dip under the radar of larger beasts, or elves may take pity on them and defend them in exchange for their crops, and in the hopes that humanity may leave them be in face of the kindness they're showing.

As for the outlands, I'd imagine that there would be greater beasts, such as dragons, wyrms, giants, and what ever else you could possibly think up that would be big and terrible. Though, thinking of it just now, I think it would be an interesting idea if the outlands became uninhabitable due to dwarven greed ravishing the lands; perhaps that could justify some scorn for them.

I do like this idea. Only it won't be the elves, I think. Or there may be a sharper distinction between those wild elves of the forests and the elves that live in cities. But I think I'll rather come up with something to replace the elves in this equation, make it be more of a question mark for everyone. Give the players something to uncover, maybe.

I believe an easy compromise would be having High Elves and Wood Elves. Those that are of a more majestic breed, and are sympathetic with humanity, and those that fear humanity's fear of influence and hide away in the woods.

Something else I'm curious about; how will the weapons and armor of this world work?

Will we be seeing hyper sized great swords like those out of Dark Souls, or will such things be relegated to ceremonial use, as they were in reality? Will plate armor be common place like in every other fantasy setting, or will it being something to truly fear, due to its ability to negate any and all forms of cutting attacks? Will different physical damage types exist, such as cutting, crushing, piercing, what have you, or is such a notion too complicated? I suppose such questions will only be relevant once we've decided on the game system we end up using.

My apologies, but it's still information I'd like to know.

So, the way I'm thinking is, if this is early medieval-like fantasy, then the combat gear is going to be modest in proportions. Plate armours certainly ought not be common - probably they'll be rare even among lesser nobility. This would depend on the game system, though if need be, we can always adjust the costs so that they reflect what we want the world to be like.

As regards the different type of damage, I think we can do without, at least most of the time. Maybe in some special situations. You encounter a glass golem, so suddenly the business end on swords and spears is kinda of uneffective and you are only relegated to whacking them with the haft / grip, therefore <damage adjustment>.

Aha, well it's more the exception than the rule, as I am imagining it. Things like these are usually left for flavour I suppose? That is to say, a game has you resolve combat in some way - most likely, some a combination of sort of attack roll and damage roll, and it is left up to the imagination how it was done.

One thing some DMs do on RollPlay is, when the dice say a player character has killed someone, the DM goes, "Okay, tell us how you kill this <someone>."

Well, what do you mean, the oversized stuff? As I said, I vote for modest proportions unless the majority wants otherwise.

>tfw WarCraft of the old days looks as retro as anything

Another two things for consideration:

- magic - how much of it, how commonplace is it, and so on

- religions and gods - do gods make it patently obvious that they exist? or is it more of a matter of interpretation… is there a single god that pretty much everyone with a brain worships, are there pantheons, do you get burned at stake for not believing the right stuff, all that

I have some opinions on the two. The system I am reading treats magic in a kind of cool way. According to it, spells are basically living entities from other worlds which the wizard binds into his spellbook (or other vessel). From then on, through meditation, he can move those entities inside his brain. This grants him some minor abilities. While memorized this way, they are ready to be cast. Once he casts the spell, the entity returns to the confines of the spellbook and the wizard cannot cast them again until he rests and meditates.

>magic

If realism is to be a main focus, and considering how deadly something as simple as throwing a fireball would be, I feel like magic should be extremely uncommon. However, that would force all of us to effectively be warriors, thieves, or archers.

So I'm afraid my opinion on that matter isn't exactly valid. Though, Overlord had a similar situation, were magic was something extremely hard to master. Their solution was to make it so that some individuals were born with an innate ability to master the arcane arts. It's just an idea, feel free to disregard is as you see fit.

>religion and gods

That would be down to you.

After all, how could one tell themselves that a greater being out there loves them as one of their own, when such wrenched beings lurk within the tree line, awaiting humanity's demise. Perhaps that's just my own mindset.

However, every nation has prospered under the belief of a greater being, so I suppose there has to be a religion, or religions, of some sort in this land. I'm not very good with such things, as I only believe in what I personally believe in, so I'm afraid personal bias would invalidate any recommendation I have to make.

Well, not necessarily. Usually, the player characters are individuals that are remarkable in one way or another. So even if you assume magic to be rare, you can simply be one of the rare people who wield it. Oh, but actually we need to get back one sentence:

>considering how deadly something as simple as throwing a fireball would be

This would also assume there is such a spell, or that magic can give you power like that. Hmm… Oh, the game in question does have it alright, and it is relatively powerful, yeah.

Mhmm, alrighty. I'll think on the religious stuff.

Hmm… Suppose it was not clear that this was so, only one explanation that people gave?

Though it is true that it is hard to explain in a different way why the wizard is incapable of casting the same spell twice (before he rests).

Hmm, one idea I can think of is simply that every spell is unique and requires its own form of energy. So it's like you had mana (as in PC games), except instead of having one pool for all spells, you'd have one seperate pool of mana for different spells.

So, the rules aren't very verbose on this. They say that you can only cast each spell once. Though according to the spells-as-entities interpretation, if we assume there are more entities which do the same thing, you could find the same spell twice and then you could cast it twice, I suppose.

Instead of spells being a one cast kind of thing, make it a limited cast thing. You wouldn't want to only be able to cast a weak spell once, would you? If you've ever played Dark Souls 1 or 2, then you'd know what I'm thinking of.

Well, the game does not presume you would be casting a whole deal, and spells are more or less similarly powerful, I think?

The way the system is set up, you can prepare one spell per your level of wizard (which is 1 to 10). If you have a positive intelligence, +1 spell extra.

There's 50 spells to choose from (or roll them at random). Not all of them are combat-oriented (though lots of them seem to be; haven't read them all yet).

Ah, my apologies.

I suppose, if you have a one spell for each level in wizardry you have, then only being able to cast each spell once before having to take time to regain use of it, that should be fine.

Are you guys familiar with XdY terminology?

It's really simple. X and Y are numbers, X is the amount of dice you are to roll, Y is the number of sides it has. So, 1d6 means "roll one six-sided die", 3d8 means "roll three eight-sided dice and add the numbers together (for a result between 3 and 24)".

>>15932

Yeah. That is to say, there are some spells that are very powerful apaprently, but they also have some sort of disadvantage to them. For example, I mentioned that the spells have some minor effects while they are memorized - usually these are neutral or even slightly handy (an Animation spell provides you with the ability to flip pages of a book with your mind or other minor telekinesis). But the side effects of some more powerful spell can be negative. So while you have the Golem spell memorised, you are encumbered as if you were carrying X items more. Or a spell that creats a shield which draws all projectiles to itself gives you a penalty of -2 to your armor against projectiles while you still have it memorised. Earhquake spell requires that you first sacrifice something worth 1000gp (dump a treasure into the ocean… or burn a village to ash); a spell that protects the wizard from death effects requires an innocent sacrifice (plus while it remains memorised, most animals are afraid of him and every now and then ravens may try to claw his eyes out).

Well. So again, I was thinking about something of more or less realistic proportions. Not oversized weapons and armours and flashy visual effects of spells.

Those swords aren't big

Panda could probs hold like 30 of those in his inventory and use them as ranged weapons

Also hey, I've got an idea. If you wanted a dwarven wizard-type character, we could treat him in a different way than normal sorcerers.

The game contains only three classes as it is: warrior, sorcerer and "expert" (I should come up with a better translation). Expert is kind of in between in terms of hit points and fighting capabilities. He can pick three skills, which are fairly broad. One of them is alchemy. Another one is religion. Religion enables him to cast spells, although only half the amount per day that sorcerers have. However, he doesn't have to only cast each once and doesn't have to prepare them.

So depending on what you'd like, you could either be a priest-like dwarf, or we could recreate a similar type of skill for you that would not be tied to religion at all. It could be some sort of dwarven mysticism, where you indeed would be commanding the powers thanks to your own ability and knowledge. In either case: you would not be able to cast spells as much as normal spellcaster, true, but you would be beefier and would also be able to have both this earthly magic and alchemy (ofc, that's only a plus to the degree you care for alchemy).

I'll be assuming you are merely kidding at this point -.-

Minor update

I happened to have spoken to the guy whose system I have been reading and meant to use. Oddly enough, he recommended me a different one. A smaller one. I don't like it as much as his so far, but just if you are curious:

It's pay-what-you-want. It should contain some nice tables that I might end up using to introduce some randomness into the game. You could as well (there's appearance tables, for example).

I don't know why you'd link me over to this; I haven't the first clue on what would be preferable in an rpg. If you'd like to use the other one you were talking about, that's fine, if everyone else would prefer to use this new one, that's fine. So long as I can spend time with you people, to be able to lie to myself that the game is slightly better with my being there, that's good enough for me.

Well you said you had problems with coming up with describing your character's appearance. So you could make use of the table.

>>16525

Yeah, the dude also implied that, I think. But I find his system also too minimalistic so far. I think it lacks certain juicyness that the guy's system has (except for the warrior class which is a bit too boring maybe, but that's one of the reason I wrote to him, since he used to have some expansions for warriors, plus races).

No, I know precisely what I want my character to look like. It was merely that I wasn't sure if the game system we would end up choosing would have anything in place to decide that for us, so I didn't want to get my hopes up.

As for my tastes in music, I don't see why that matters.
