  • I appreciate your map posts and for taking the time to ask for input before making sci-fi. I feel like splitting Traveller off was unnecessary given the amount of traffic but I suppose to each their own.

    I understand it's a niche hobby on a niche platform (Lemmy in general) so it's not a huge surprise there aren't a lot of people posting. But I am surprised by the comparative volume of meme posts on TTRPG.network. It's almost all meme posts and comments. Clearly people are happy to engage in that way, but not elsewhere. I don't get it.

  • I have only played a very limited amount of Traveller but have done a lot of reading and really like the setting and system. I'm not sure exactly why though. It's much crunchier than what I would normally like, but in a good way. I definitely like the math of rolling 2d6, as a change from all the d20 based games I've played. I suppose I just like the old school 80's sci-fi vibe in general. I wish I had given this game more attention when I was a kid.

  • I do have a specific Traveller question I've been meaning to post but haven't taken the time to articulate it yet. I am a reader and supporter though!

  • The Ukrainian hospital bundle looks really good. Lots of stuff in there with a bunch of solo RPGs. The bundle is probably worth it for the Cairn and Mausritter stuff alone.

  • Rotating GM

    Jump

  • Our group had a shared GM game we ran for a while. Not exactly rotating GMs like in this post, but swapping out regularly. The lack of continuity and overarching storyline was one of the major reasons interest died out. It was a hodgepodge of stories and became kind of a mess.

  • Where do you play virtual games?

  • That's a pretty good testimonial. Thank you for taking the time to share it with me.

  • They do make communication more efficient, as long as everyone understands the definition. If they don't, then acronyms and initials quickly make the communication inefficient, or worse, make the person that isn't in the know feel excluded. In my professional life, I spend a lot of my time translating acronyms and trying to help people navigate the confusion of not knowing what things mean and wondering if they're in over their head, all due to the constant use of jargon.

    My suggestion is to definite your acronyms the first time you use them or, if it's a short message, spell the whole thing out and don't mention the abbreviation at all.

  • I don't know what the implied demographic is, but I assume I am not in it. I suppose that vibe is part of why I don't feel the desire to venture further into the fediverse.

  • Traveller Mayday Bundles

    Jump

  • My collection of games I don't play continues to grow. The Pirates of Drinax bundle is a pretty good haul. If I ever convince my group to play Traveller for a campaign, it will likely be that.

  • For anybody else that hates needless acronyms, FOSS apparently stands for Free and Open Source Software.

  • To clarify for others considering, the sale is for the PDF. I would be more likely to get this if it was a hard copy.

  • I am in the same boat as you. I looked at this and thought about buying it but, I don't need it so I didn't. I could be convinced otherwise but I would rather buy more sourcebooks that I may or may not read/use.
