TheCalzoneMan@beehaw.orgtoTTRPGs@lemmy.blahaj.zone•What is your favorite TTRPG that isn't DnD?5·2 years agoMy favorites are Blades in the Dark, Savage Worlds, and Wushu.
Blades’ setting is extremely fun to mess around in, think Dishonored. It’s a Powered by the Apocalypse game, so if you know that style it’s pretty simple to pick up.
Savage Worlds lets you make up a lot of your own settings, abilities, races, etc. much easier than D&D, and includes a unique upgrading dice system for stats. It also houses Deadlands, which is one of my favorite settings of all time.
Wushu is essentially just old Chinese/Japanese martial arts films boiled down into a game. Super fun, extremely fast, and limited only by your imagination. It is really rules-light so keep that in mind. I think the entire rules are about 18 pages long, and the rest of the book is optional rules and settings.
Honorable mentions go to Call of Cthulhu because Eldritch horror is my jam and Vampire: the Masquerade because sometimes I want to get political with my urban fantasy! Oh, and Fucked-Up Little Man because one-page Dark Souls RPG funny.
TheCalzoneMan@beehaw.orgtoReddit Migration@kbin.social•Reddit's response about the actions they took against the subreddits (note: r/mildly interesting DID NOT encourage nsfw content and their suspensions and removal have been revoked by a diff admin)2·2 years agoI always found Reddit to be more enjoyable in the niche subculture stuff anyways, hopefully some of those communities move over here. You would think that the admins for Reddit would understand the “innovate or die” mentality, but that unfortunately does not seem to be the case. I too am looking forward to what Lemmy/KBin brings as a replacement.
Combine them! Make a ciser; they’re fantastic and significantly higher ABV than traditional ciders.
