SRK's forum is shutting down, so here's my thoughts on why reddit, facebook, twitter, etc. are terrible replacements for old-style forums

@Wayves masto, twitter, reddit et al. aren't really replacements for forums in general xkeeper.dreamwidth.org/9872.ht

and yeah, the early-mid 00s were great for them. the decline started after that midpoint when sites started having comments sections en-masse and then got eviscerated by social media as we know it

today is a better day than yesterday for me

Hope everyone is doing well

Tabletop game design thing

I'm not sure I'm OK with this still as I have to figure out how to categorize and balance 4 magic categories between all the spells and implement a bardic magic system on top of these categories lmao

The other approach I've thought about is just breaking it down by that, and then implementing the raw spells that entail this, then letting players know what the implications of the knowledge in game are based on spells they learn

That approach might work out better for simplification reasons and also makes unlocking higher spell levels less complex

I'm thinking about using a words of power style approach to magic in that learning deeper power of a word gives you higher level spells.

It might get too complex though bc for every spell level you'd need to compare to every other word at that level to see if there's a spell that those two words make. And that's assuming you limit it to 2

Y'all are great

A take 

@srol it's interesting and problematic but not overly so and enjoyable

Just gotta be comfortable seeing lots of gratuitous nudity and implied sex and gore
