If there's a good reason no...I agree with you. If there's a good reason not to write a new RPG system, then don't do it. Adventures, campaign settings, and cool random tables are going to be more usable (and sell better) than core rules... unless the game rules!<br /><br />The game you describe sounds awesome. Find a way to give people that experience (especially non-gamers) and you'll have found your Holy Grail.Venger Satanishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04447932700800930510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4143435314932633148.post-59155353160844812072015-10-08T06:02:27.937-07:002015-10-08T06:02:27.937-07:00I know that started as a lament, but your 'rav...I know that started as a lament, but your 'raving madman' bit is practically compelling me to play 'proper' D&D - and I've just posted an 'I'm not playing enough, what do I do now' kinda post that suggested I'd settled on a 'space game'!

Those were the days, when men were men and gnomes were monster bait! Everything you described is, just...YES! Just the bare bones adventure of it all, man! No need for fancy character sheets. Just a notebook with lined paper that you could fill full of legendary deeds! Dammit, now I want to PLAY!

You could easily go through this post and make notes of what should and shouldn't be in there: ditch planar travel, paladins and half-orcs (hell, probably orcs too); make rules for alcohol and flying mounts, etc. Ask yourself what other games are missing for that playstyle or what they do have that doesn't mesh with it<br /><br />With the RPG market being the way it is, and you being a very small fish in that pond, you've got to make what you love and hope others like it too (which isn't to say you shouldn't consider your audience during the design process. That leads to over-complication and system bloat). Hell, even though we aren't in total agreement on what we want out of our games (I'd love to see characters eaten by bears, and while I'm not a powergamer, I do like incentivizing choices), I'd still be interested in checking it out based on what you've written here. It sounds like fun!Holly Oatshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01703437987958922954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4143435314932633148.post-16812750192168041792015-10-06T23:18:47.603-07:002015-10-06T23:18:47.603-07:00Yeah.Yeah.rainswepthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06165059567790555748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4143435314932633148.post-42870343647395807402015-10-06T21:32:31.523-07:002015-10-06T21:32:31.523-07:00Yes Demogorgon the original plague engine!
