Another NPC done. Their quest i might actually skip, but if I do program it I'll need to change some things so it's going on the back burner for now. Long story short, I can only handle so much bleak shit lol.

@bitterblossom @Jazzy_Butts the fact that every single pathfinder rule is completely free to use not just in-game but also your own books/rulesets is absolutely incredible and shows that they know their product is competitively viable. 2e is pretty awesome. it is really rule verbose, though, for instance i think the rules and systems for social play is just a little bit weird. i prefer things to be a bit more freeform and simple which 5e does a really good job at, although it can be horribly balanced in almost every area which leaves a lot on the DM's plate.

i've been loosely making my own ttrpg system called "melee, magic & mischief" but it's more of a personal project. it has more simple rules, a lot of stuff is generalized and the character creation is super fast and freeform. it relies on the same system as two other ones i'm making just based on different settings, zombie apocalypse and cyberpunk. i made the zombie one for a friend and he's not gonna' use it probably so i repurposed it into cyberpunk because that's what i actually want to run at some point, but then pivoted a little bit toward fantasy because that's what all my friends are into.

i'm interested in checking out kobold press's "black flag" system at some point too. also, shadow of the weird wizard. shadow of the demon lord seems REALLY sweet and honestly right up my alley in terms of rules and systems, and ESPECIALLY character creation, but i couldn't get any of my friends into it because they don't like how brutally punishing it can be. SotWW should be a bit closer to D&D so i think they'd appreciate it a lot more.

@Jazzy_Butts i can't imagine the new shit is going to sell well, and they probably know that too which is why they are switching to a membership model where you can still access all of the old 5E content too more or less.

@xianc78 I've always hated using numbers because it makes the name feel less unique

@AngryWraith foreskin chopper and if you go a little farther, gets the whole dick.

@colahpse @keisuke yeah there is 0 chance I convince all of my friends and a bunch of modding projects I'm interested in to use some obscure message system that still has quirks and isn't on every platform. I had a hard enough time getting people I knew on Facebook to join a discord server for my game dev stuff. Most of them didn't come over so I actually had to make a fake Facebook account to keep in contact with them.
