I'd just as soon dump every class that isn't some weird peculiar concept, starting with the Fighter ("fights") and Wizard ("does all the magic except healing and some buffs"). The cleric, paladin, ranger, druid, etc. are weird enough to stay.

PurpleXVI posted:The reason I tend to end up with D&D is that it feels like most other fantasy games are a reaction to D&D in some sense. Either going "gently caress YOU DAD" and trying to be as different as possible whether it means making something good or bad, or going "this is what D&D was really about" and getting tunnel vision obsessiveness with one interpretation of D&D(like that it's supposed to be a hardcore mudfarmer murder simulator where you're not allowed to have fun and if you don't like that then you're playing games wrong). So as broken as D&D is in any edition, at least with my favoured edition I usually have more fun than these. Then there are games which are very different from D&D in terms of setting, but have sops to D&Disms that look weird in the abstract. Tekumel has dungeons, Harn has an Abhoth-like deity that pukes up monsters, and both seem to have the sort of ecumenical paganism that's more in keeping with D&D campaign settings than with their own cultural influences.

I've been reading Ron Edwards' Circle of Hands, which is such a response to D&D that it reprints his Fantasy Heartbreaker essays along with many additional personal notes about how this began as his never-published fantasy heartbreaker. It rules. It's pretty much completely unlike any version of D&D in both rules and setting, with the glaring exception that the premise is a war between old-school D&D Law and Chaos, with the PCs as members of a militantly Neutral faction.

Alien Rope Burn posted:Yeah, it was just on the brain after recently reading a pirate RPG (Fragged Seas) that assumes everybody is a competent sailor, so there's no skill for basic ropework or swimming. That's just something you can do. So in a pulp fantasy game, just assume everybody fights. Of course, that kind of thing is easy to work into D&D-alikes as well, just assume everybody fights to an extent as a fighter of their level (at least, in versions with simple fighter classes). TheGreatEvilKing posted:The dumb killbot D&Dism is just a D&Dism that's not faithful to the source material. gradenko_2000 posted:I mean the only reason why the issue of "everyone is magical" keeps coming up is because the game is otherwise set up in such a way that non-magical characters are so much more limited in their capabilities than magical characters. You wouldn't need to "drop the Fighter and replace them with a spellsword" if the Fighter could do poo poo without narratively needing to write "magic" on their sheet.

Cythereal posted:The two-weapon fighting thing didn't come until fairly late in D&D and was mainly inspired by Drizzt. Kaza42 posted:The original ranger sub-class didn't have an animal companion or two-weapon fighting, and weren't particularly good at archery (normal fighting man level, no special bonuses). I went reading into this a long while back, and here is how I remember it: Two-weapon fighting was introduced in 1e, and rangers were one of the classes that could do it, by virtue of being a fighter subclass. This only became a signature Ranger Thing after Drizzt. Rangers are good at archery because of their high chance to ambush opponents and avoid being ambushed. If you're actually using the rules for combat segments, rangers are ace at softening up the opposition before they can get a shot off.

Thuryl posted:I checked what my 2e PHB has to say. All warrior and rogue classes (so the fighter, paladin, ranger, thief, and bard) can dual-wield to gain a single bonus attack per round with their off-hand weapon, but at a penalty to all attack rolls: -2 for the main hand, -4 for the off-hand, modified by Dexterity. Rangers ignore this penalty as long as they're wearing studded leather armour or lighter. So by the time 2e came out, dual-wielding was something particularly associated with rangers, with mechanics to back it up. As far as I can see, they don't have any particular expertise at archery compared to the other warrior classes, but they did get the ability to hide in shadows and move silently (again, only in studded leather or lighter, and with a penalty when trying to do so in non-natural environments), and eventually access to low-level priest spells (starting at level 8, up to spell level 3 by level 12). Also, 2e rangers can fall just like paladins do and turn into fighters if they intentionally do evil, because 2e was the weirdest edition about alignment (although the rules for atonement are less strict than for paladins).

The Rifts setting sounds really fun to play in with a sane system, but I expect it would be easier to something like Rifts in another system than to actually fix Rifts. As opposed to, say, Nightbane, where CJ Carella's good work just needs to be extracted from the claws of the Palladium system with minimal tearing.

 Have you ever heard of Ron Edwards? He’s kind of a big deal. Author of the games Sorcerer and Trollbabe, among others, and co-founder of The Forge, where he published the infamous essays System Does Matter, Fantasy Heartbreakers, and More Fantasy Heartbreakers. Among others. If you’re not familiar with the concept of a Fantasy Heartbreaker, well, this is the F&F thread. Wait another page or two and it’ll come up. It turns out that the whole time Edwards was discussing fantasy heartbreakers, he had a long-forgotten D&D homebrew, called Gray Magick, just sitting there in a manila folder. So he started a little project called the Heartbreaker Redemption Project on the Adept Press website, where he encouraged people to dust off their own heartbreakers and develop them. In 2014, Gray Magick was Kickstarted into Circle of Hands. Edwards lists a lot of inspirations throughout the acknowledgements and first chapter, far too many to repeat here. Suffice to say that his influences within the hobby run from old school (The Fantasy Trip) to groundbreaking (Prince Valiant) to indie narrative (The Shadow of Yesterday) and even OSR (Lamentations of the Flame Princess). Literary influences include Moorcock, Poul Anderson, Sienkiewicz, and Karl Edward Wagner. He also recommends some philosophy, namely Wittgenstein and Nietzsche, and notes his inspirations from 70s prog rock (the title is a Uriah Heep song). That’s not really my scene, but I promise I’ll write as much of this as I can while stoned to the gills and listening to Sleep. Okay Just Tell Me What It’s About You Pedantic rear end in a top hat Right. Circle of Hands is set in a fantasy realm called the Crescent Land, an isolated region which forms the coast of a large bay to the east. Its people call themselves the Iron Folk. Their society is pre-medieval: primitive, poor, and violent. Culture is brutal and stagnant, not least because of the eternal war between black magic and white magic. Black magic, called Rbaja (ur-bah-juh), is the force of chaos and pestilence. It maims and kills, inflames human passions to run out of control, raises vile undead, and summons insane demons. Left unchecked, Rbaja creates blasted wastelands full of rot and disease. White magic, called Amboriyon, is the force of sterile purity. It heals and protects, quenches passion, summoning ruthless avatars and transcendent eidolons. Left unchecked, it creates idyllic cloud-citadels that call the people and lands below into a blinding light from which they will never return. Most people are inclined to favour white magic over black magic, for obvious pragmatic reasons. But both are abstract cosmic forces that are ultimately incompatible with human life. Look at it this way: If wizards of Rbaja are Charles Manson, wizards of Amboriyon are Jim Jones. Where You Come In In the craggy coastal region of Rolke, something new is happening. A young king has seized power in the wake of decades of terrible magical wars, advised by an aged wizard who has somehow been practicing both kinds of magic without serving either side. The king has purged the land of wizards and declared a new strategy: use both kinds of magic, tactically, to oppose both Amboriyon and Rbaja. A group of exceptional individuals has gathered around the king in Rolke. They are some of the best fighters in the Crescent Land, and they all know a mix of white and black magic. They are the Circle. Your PCs are knights of the Circle.  Sessions of Circle of Hands take the form of Ventures carried out by knights of the Circle. That means that a few Circle knights, that is you, heard about some problem or opportunity and rode off together to deal with it. Ventures are successful by default, usually; the game is about the impact it has on your characters and how they develop. The game is not about the political situation in Rolke. The king and his court are never depicted, and there are no rules concerning factions or domains. Style and Content Edwards’ voice and style in this book is unique, and I like it a great deal. He’s conversational, and sometimes he just drops references to help you visualize the world--“I was thinking of Seven Samurai when I wrote this,” etc. The layout is sometimes a bit rambling, because he likes to include things like sidebars with a playtester’s take on his ideas, or give a broad overview before getting into details. Case in point, the first chapter starts with an Rundown (PDF) that lays out the game, its setting, and its rules in a couple pages. Let’s get this out of the way before we go any further: This game is set in a brutal pre-medieval society, and the background material frankly discusses injustices such as cold-blooded murder, rape, and torture. Edwards insists that “Circle of Hands is about survivorship, not victimhood.” He states that he’s disgusted by the way that mass media harvests stories of trauma and commodifies them, and wants this game to be about confronting trauma, rather than exploiting it, via stories about hard people making hard choices. Later in the book are detailed procedures for setting boundaries and developing a consensus at the table on how to deal with these issues, if at all. Chapter 1: Original Metal This is Dark Age fantasy. Historians don’t use that term anymore, but it applies. The landscape is beautiful but sparse, and action concerns monsters, magic, and combat. Fantasy of this sort is often called Viking Age or Anglo-Saxon, but this isn’t ancient Scandinavia or Britain with the serial numbers filed off. (Edwards says at it’s closer to the 10th century Baltic, of which I know nothing.) There’s no equivalent to the Roman Empire, as a touchstone for past glories, and no guarantee that this is all leading to chivalry or the Renaissance. If you want progress, you can start by killing that wizard over there. I think the biggest buy-in for players of this game is that the institutions of the high medieval era, and whic you expect of a typical D&D campaign setting, simply haven’t developed at all. There’s no feudalism--no lord, no serfs, no manor. There’s no monolithic religion--neither a Catholic Church nor the quasi-Roman ecumenical paganism of many fantasy campaign settings. The cutting edge of military technology, no pun intended, is mail hauberks and steel swords. There’s no settlement big enough to be called a city. There isn’t even any money! So what do you have instead? Government is entirely local. Economy and society are managed by norms and customs, with hierarchies forming based on personal histories and relationships. Does this system, if it can even be called that, leave a lot of room for disagreement, jealousy, resentment, bullying, and simple misunderstanding? Isn’t it under constant threat of breaking down into violence and terror? You bet. When the game isn’t about bloody struggle, it’s about the Circle knights dealing with a lot of scared and vulnerable people, most of them just trying to get by and get along. GMing this Beast It wouldn’t be a Ron Edwards joint if there weren’t prescribed methods for how to structure play, with diagrams.  GOTO sword This is how Circle of Hands establishes setting. The backdrop is what the book gives you in the way of what a typical RPG calls its setting chapter, plus whatever details you fill in. The situation is what the group has prepared for play: the details of the latest Venture that the GM has prepared for this session, and the PCs that the players have created, with their history from previous sessions. The scene is where play actually happens. Edwards makes these distinctions not only for the sake of organization, but to help establish the social contract at the table. Ron is responsible for the game’s backdrop. Everyone (but especially the GM) is responsible for the situation. Everyone is definitely responsible for how they play out scenes. He distinguishes two styles of dealing with controversial content, called No One Gets Hurt and I Will Not Abandon You. In the former, limits are made explicit from the beginning, and avoided in setting up situations and in play. In the latter, the players make each other aware of their feelings and are expected to respect one another, but not to outright avoid difficult issues. Circle of Hands is built around the latter. Two specific techniques for handling content are Lines and Veils. Simply put: a Line means that you don’t want something in the fiction, at all. A Veil means that you don’t want it depicted directly. That is, it can be part of the backdrop or the situation, but not depicted in scenes of actual play. (At this point I just want to say that I feel like I’m overselling the Mature Content a little. You can easily play this game without anybody getting raped or crucified. There are no rape monsters or whatever in this game, just frank reminders that oppression in the Middle Ages could be horrifying.) Edwards even says “I’m butting into your game and establishing some Lines of my own, because I can’t imagine running Circle of Hands without them.” He simply calls them Plot Armor. These are: 1. Circle knights don’t die of infection. They theoretically could in this setting, but gently caress that. 2. Sex doesn’t happen without the player initiating it. 3. Circle knights don’t get pregnant unless it’s the player’s idea. 4. Circle knights don’t get raped. They theoretically could in this setting, but gently caress that a million times. So why even propose dealing with this content in play at all? Edwards’ justification is that he wants to tell fantasy stories that are about the messiness and complexity of people and their lives, instead of one where going on an “adventure,” slaying monsters, and getting treasures is just a procedural. Amboriyon and Rbaja both claim that they’re good and evil, respectively, but both are abstract cosmic forces that are literally incompatible with the reality that humans live in. The Circle dealing with these forces while opposing them is basically symbolic of the need to create ethics and do some good in the world, against ideologies that are just imposed by force. Why This Game? Edwards wrote the game for the same reason anybody writes yet another fantasy game: You look at everything you can find, but feel there’s something you want that’s still missing. All of that got crammed into Circle of Hands, including some big ideals and a lot of little things. He wanted a game where combat felt desperate, damage feels like it hurts, and the value of a knife vs. a battleaxe was relevant to the situation. He wanted wizards to be crazy and weird and for magic to be alien and terrifying. He wanted to care about the characters, and for them to have real reasons for struggling and fighting. He wanted cosmic forces opposing each other without the PCs feeling like pawns. Okay, enough pontificating. Next time I’ll talk about mountains and horses and axes and stuff. I’ll be trading off updates with Vampire, which will be getting back on track soon.

I find myself at a loss to say much about Degenesis except that it's loving weird, but I'm glad they made it and I'm glad you're reviewing it.Joe Slowboat posted:Honestly it's probably the best science fantasy, possibly the best science fiction of any kind, novel of the 20th century in my opinion - and it's up against some drat strong competition! After Tolkien's smashing success, people figured out that if you could get people invested in your worldbuilding, you had a gravy train. Enormous amounts of energy are spent in fandom just memorizing all the details of fictional universes. Dying Earth fantasy typically confounds this attempt at immersion via rote memorization, which is part of the charm. I think a big part of why Vance resonates with me is that I discovered him during a time when it seemed fantasy had become synonymous with either licensed franchises or huge sprawling epics like WoT and ASoIaF. (I believe Martin has said that he greatly admires Vance and read a lot of him growing up, but that he's nothing like him as a stylist.)

Joe Slowboat posted:...to bring this back to RPGs, Degenesis seems to use some of that language alienation, referencing things we don't yet know about often and vaguely. Does that work in an RPG? Can one have a setting book with implications rather than direct statements about immediate physical reality? Apocalypse World does this: it's concerned with teaching you how to GM a post-apocalyptic world that is desperate, violent, wracked with scarcity and disease. It's not concerned with exactly what kind of post-apocalypse it is, which is up to you to invent. But it gives you some material conceits to go on: the rules make it clear that permanent settlements, guns, cars, and psychic powers are assumed to exist. Circle of Hands is similar. I was going to put this in the opening chapter, but it got too wordy: in a typical fantasy setting book, the chapter on religion would immediately get into a list of gods, with notes on their depictions, symbols, spheres of influence, and their worshippers. It's up to you to see the forest for the trees and reckon that Eberron and the Forgotten Realms have a sort-of-Roman ecumenical paganism. CoH doesn't do this; it's much more concerned with explaining the general principles of the regional religion and its role in society. It's entirely up to you to decide that the people in this village worship some guy who died a century ago as a saint, and they honor him by burning something in an altar stone, which makes them prey for Amboriyon wizards who are big on rituals involving purification by fire... Anyway. The only game I can think of that does almost or exactly what you're talking about is the Dying Earth Roleplaying Game itself, which is big on teaching players to just make up setting details while going about their picaresque misadventures. Because in accordance with what I was talking about, if two PCs have a rambling argument about what the Anti-Theocrats of the 3rd Aeon of the Lunar Era were doing, it has absolutely zero impact on things that are the GM's purview.

PurpleXVI posted:But in an RPG, you have to assume that the players and GM will want to make use of every part of the setting. So when their guide Jane Alienman goes: "Beware of the Bobs!" one of the players might want to peek over the ridge, so the GM is gonna need a description of what a Bob looks like. Or one of the players might flub their stealth roll, or just decide that they want to bring back a skinned Bob as a trophy, and then the GM is gonna need stats for them. Like, at most you can reference extremely setting-peripheral stuff, to give the GM some space to invent their own stuff. But if you reference something in an RPG, you should describe it and, ideally, stat it out, even if it's only in a supplement of some sort.

 Vampire: The Masquerade (2nd Edition) quote:The apparition of these faces in the crowd; Interlude: A Dark History of Face Grabbing I wanted to finish a Vampire update yesterday, but I was busy. I can only review Circle of Hands while smoking weed and listening to Sleep, and I can only review Vampire while drinking vermouth and listening to Clan of Xymox. I hope you understand. (Eventually, I'll review Vampire: Undeath. I guess I'll have to get into the Insane Clown Posse and get addicted to meth.) In recompense I wanted to offer a brief interlude that touches on a crucial element of Vampire: the Masquerade that's been missing from my review thus far. It's very easy and very common to discuss every detail of a game while missing the forest for the trees. I'm talking about theme, of course. People have used vampire fiction to tell stories about addiction, exploitation, sexuality, alienation, and sin and redemption--often in combination. I'd even argue that most of the WoD edition wars over the years have boiled down to differences of opinion regarding theme. But regardless of whatever other themes may be present in a Vampire campaign--sorry, chronicle--they are all ultimately stories about someone grabbing someone by the face. Their own face, or the face of another. It may arrive in the context of a pulse-pounding scene of violence where the grabbing of a face is the dramatic climax, or a quiet and deliberate scene in which a PC thoughtfully grabs their own face. But this is a vision that was presented consistently from the very start. These images are all from the corebook:  I reserve the rights to Mr. Bandanagrabber, Baby Bandanagrabber, and any other Bandanagrabber family character that might emanate therefrom  As a vampire, wearing Elvira nails is hiding in plain sight.  New Wave Face Grab  they cant troll you if there dead  Oh, where do I begin?  I mean, why would a guy with a bandana wanna grab another bandana? These are the questions I don’t want to answer.  You’re late. We already grabbed our faces.  Just leaving this here  His Joy Division shirt is also a vampire  The Bishop!  Who can forget that scene in 9 ½ Weeks where they have rough sex behind some Florida glass?  Peekaboo  So I was out with this girl, right? And she wanted to, y’know, grab my face...but she left her glove on. Weird.  You can fall, I will catch you I’ll grab your face Time after time Time after time Time after time Next time on Kindred the Embraced: The first of two GMing chapters!

Shub-Niggurath, in particular, is an entity that was never really depicted in Lovecraft's own stories, only appearing as references to a dark Cybele sort of figure. There are many different ways to make pastiche of or pay homage to Lovecraft's writing that don't involve spinning Shub-Niggurath out into a sex monster, yet that inevitably happens.
