I have a personal theory that if your favorite Primarch is Guilliman, you have 500+ hours in a 4x game.

Stellaris, Hearts of Iron, EU 4, whatever. You just like empire spreadsheet games lmao.

I think a Disco Elysium style CRPG for Mage the Ascension would go hard. And fill the hole in my heart for fun intresting WoD games.

I mean DE style in the way of narrative focused, incredibly weird, and similar tone.

But man actually gamifying Mage's magic would be wild lmao.

Last night I went to Cordon and for some wild reason, the game decided to run at a stable 60+ fps. No clue why, it hasn't been since drop. So with a randomly stable game I explored every inch of the area I knew by heart. I was absolutely absorbed. Some of the most fun I had in a game in a long time.

Its the big thing I respect but also imagine (and completely understand) turning away some people. I enjoy games that try to shy away from more standard dice systems. A weird one to relate it to is the board game Call to Adventure. Also a wonky fun one in rolling tiles for successes. More fun imo.

I like games with a bit of rules meat on em. Rules lite is fun and all. Like Fabula Ultima is great. But FFG Star Wars... well its a game that is so fun its one of my favorite ttrpgs despite me really not liking Star Wars that much. I know theres a generic version I gotta check out.

A big hurdle for that mechanic is telling players "Hey kids! Go nuts! Do anything!" Thats scary. I really enjoy how in this game it has tables. Do you *have* to do these options? No. But it scales the power of the dice and effects. Btw. This is just one table. There are a LOT more in other books.

That outcome of advantages, disadvantages btw? Up to the player. Narrative mechanics. Other games have this. Fabula Ultima, Legend of the 5 Rings being games I have personally played. But imo, FFG Star Wars is the one that did it best. Giving tools to put up guardrails. Just in case.

First, dice. Its system looks... overwhelming. But its just 3 catagories of dice canceling each other out. With a good or bad option. You want to succeed, but then can get modifiers changing the actions outcome. By like a LOT. Fail upward, fail completely. Complete success, rocky success, ect.

There's 2 things in the FFG Star Wars #ttrpg that tickle the brain just right. In a perfect way that I've never had any other game hit since. That being it dice pool system, and player driven narrative mechanic. I wanna talk about it.
