Also, I realized Gabe will want to be there extra cause I got a phatty art book recently: some of it I think is so so, but there's a lot of awesome shit in there (it's all very anime-styled).

--[[User:BenofZongo|BenofZongo]] 13:56, 1 April 2007 (MST)Everyone can post potential character concepts, as many as they like, on the [http://benscondo.wiki-rpg.com/index.php?title=Gemini_Crew_Members gemini characters]  if they feel like it.  Also, if you have an opinion about what sort of missions you want to see the crew engage in, post that to the appropriate [http://benscondo.wiki-rpg.com/index.php?title=Talk:List_of_Mission_Types_your_character/crew_may_be_interested_in talk page] as well.  If there are secret details you'd like to ask about, you can email them to me.
 
  
--[[User:Jason|Jason]] 15:58, 2 April 2007 (MST)Again I have probably failed to express my initial point well.  In the past games have been an overall success even though they have had weaknesses that can be pinpointed (success in spite of things we can improve).  The problem is that we do not try to improve.  We point back to the past and say that was ok even though we didnt do x, and then we end up with functionally the same game as before.  With this kind of thinking we never progress; we never innovate and move on to an even better level of gaming.  Yeah, sure we had fun with previous games.  But shouldnt we try to achieve something more?  The general consensus is 'No'.  Yet that goes against everything I believe.

== Ranting and Raving == 
  
There are three things that can determine the outcome of an encounter: luck, ingenuity and power.  Balance cannot affect either of the first two, only the last.  Players cannot count on luck to achieve their goals, so that leaves ingenuity and power.  If balanced is enforced, power also should not be the deciding factor.  This means if players are to be continually successful they must develop their ingenuity.

On balnce, I have to agree with Jason's comments here, I like the bit on Ingenuity > Luck or Power.  Well crafted.  I like balance.  If a shotgun was by far the best, the players would be tempted to all use shotguns because we are our characters advocates and we want our characters to rock.  It's inherrantly difficult to want your character to fail, although that might be interesting.  I think ben has actually tried to craft a different balance into gemini with the rerolls/focus/path vs character points, we'll see how it works out, and have fun on the way.

+
Still, I think balance is not the real issue.  Exemplars is the greatest effort to balance a game so far.  but I think you are not inclined to run it because of game external stressors, as you have mentioned.

Latest revision as of 17:20, 15 January 2017

This page is for discussion of stuff related to the game coming up this week, no matter when that actually is. For instance, we can all assume Nate isnt coming for some lame reason and that Ed is sick of pizza and is bringing teriyaki or some other crap. They can post something here if that happens to be untrue.
