Can I have your permission to get this tattooed on my back?

But we’ll still get updates on colonoscopies right?

I’m hoping I can find a way to make myself post more to keep in touch with peeps! Most likely gonna be lurkin’, like elsewhere, though. Glad to see more of you over here!

I’m a couple years early, but it’s actually because I skipped to my 80s.

-renaming the Alchemist subclass for the Artificer in honor of one of my PCs who is probably the “greatest alchemist who has ever lived.” Though, that last one is probably going too far. Just a little thought spread out over a useless thread because I talk too much! ❤️

-In the opposite direction! I think I want my players to feel like they’re rewriting the history of the world they live within! I want towns to be named after them, I want NPCs in games played in the future of this world to be named after my PCs! In my most radical fantasies, I thought about-

-be celebrated, but beyond that, I would worry that I would default to status quo, and the next town over would not know these random adventurers from nowhere. That doesn’t feel great, but it’s something that I still default to, accidentally or otherwise, more often than not. So, I thought I’d go-

My initial reaction was to show my party having a parade thrown in their honor. Basically, dedicate an entire part of the session to telling them just how awesome they are. I liked that idea, but I feared I would run into the same issue I had in my baseball game: my party’s achievements would-

-they are in, but the history of the world around them. My current D&D party just slew a fire giant which was threatening to burn down the giant sacred tree city above them, and then we took an extended break from the campaign; but when we return, how could I convey this momentous achievement?-

-for arthritis medication. So, what does this have to do with TTRPG design? Very little, I grant you, but I’m a GM, so I know how to stretch a thin premise! One of the things I struggle with in running tabletop games is consistently conveying that the PCs are impacting not just the moments-

-I couldn’t figure out why, until something hit me… the game wasn’t showing me anything about the impact I was having on the world outside of baseball. My player character’s entire life, her entire world, was the diamond and the clubhouse and occasionally a single hotel room shot like a commercial-
December 6, 2024 at 1:54 AM
-remarking on my achievements, there were no signs that I was “leaving my mark on the sport,” as the game repeatedly insisted I was doing. I won my team five World Series in a row, but still, the game didn’t feel like it was treating my meteoric rise with the appropriate amount of gravitas.-

-of how close I got to each record and the dead eyed, digital simulacra of my teammates cheered and whooped when I surpassed the records, carried us to, and then through, the post season, and then won us the World Series. But outside of that, and the occasional FMV of baseball broadcasters-

-up to the majors! I hit two home runs per game, got a total of 131 home runs my first season. I broke the single season home run record after starting in June, two months after the beginning of the season. And yet… the game hardly reacted. The game certainly celebrated my victories, kept a tally-

-I thought I’d turn the difficulty all the way down, give myself the best possible items, and basically make myself into lady Ted Williams, just to see how the story would react to me. I played AA ball for three in game weeks, got called up to AAA, played that for three weeks, then I got called-

-In this mode, you have the option of playing as the first ever female player in Major League Baseball. It’s the central focus of the narrative. And because of this interesting and novel narrative hook, for a sports video game, anyway, was so baked into the game, I thought I’d try something out.-

I’ve been playing a lot “MLB: The Show 24” lately (don’t ask me why, but baseball is the only sport that interests me and it’s also the most tedious?!) and I’ve been conducting an experiment: this particular version of MLB: The Show features a single player story mode.-

Sad to say that I’ve allowed myself to fall into those thought patterns more than once. Wish I could go back in time to kick my younger self in the ass, so it wouldn’t feel like I’m losing ground to the fascists all the time.

I have cerebral palsy and I’m starting to work on my own rules light TTRPG! Might I be added to the list?

I’d love to play with you… just sayin’… 🥺
