In general the impression I have from reading various sources is that Cyberpunk missions are good sources
So far I like some of missions in Tales of Night City.
You mean this?
Yeah, in the end you’ll always end up doing an inspiration rather than running it directly. But among pre-prepared missions there are those that are flexible and those that rely on assumptions. I was hoping that maybe someone had looked at this book and has an opinion which category these fall in
Request: if you decide to add new blogs, could you also make a post about it on your blog, please?
After some time I discovered that I’d prefer narrower choice of blogs, so I copied your selection and manually created my own list. But I’d still like to leverage your moderation, so if you wrote about it on your blog, I would know to check them out
I don’t think there’s one answer to that. To me it depends on the context of the clock and what’s your plan for pacing. Also it will be part of your style that you just have to find for yourself, what works for you
(Cyberpunk examples)
So depending on what you want to do it’s either bigger or smaller clock, with consequences either in fiction or mechanical
Characters in the title are not the regular ones making it look like a spam mail, no link, description sounds like corpo LLM. If there really is some podcast somewhere, I think it deserves better
Hell has frozen over?
sometimes my notes are more detailed than his
Impressive! :)
Two way as in “upload too” or “another share from other device”?

I create a Directory, and that directory and it’s files become available to network
So basically you want to set up an ftp server?
You mean like LocalSend, croc, Share via HTTP or ShareX?
I think I’ve found an app some time ago that was just setting up an HTTP file server, so you could share whole directories. But I didn’t have use for it and I forgot the name
No, that is actually useful. Blocking access for anonymous users is not
If anything, the boom of LLMs like copilot and chatgpt actually shows the power of open source and open access to information. Underlying algorithms would mean nothing without open source, open access to stackoverflow, forums, etc
Microsoft acquired Github and the discussions around the future of opensource on a microsoft owned infrastructure
Personally I’m impressed it took them so long to start driving it to the ground
I moved to Codeberg
Codeberg is a non-profit, community-led organization that aims to help free and open source projects prosper by giving them a safe and friendly home
From what I read around, the first RPG to have flashbacks and something like downtime was Leverage. The downtime part was not as prominent, but with the parts about closing the hooks from the beginning of the heist, I think it is very close. Whole game was rooted in some tv series about criminals breaking the law. So I think these rather come from other media that depict heists
I almost never use battlemap, but sometimes I prepare map
Wait, what’s the difference? A grid?
I prefer to have some kind of grid on mine as it helps with seeing the scale. But the moment a player starts counting squares of movement, so the the squares of range fit, I get triggered ;) I don’t play rpgs to measure ranges with a ruler
A map of the crime-scene sometimes really helps the PC figuring out how the clues say something about the story
Exactly! it can backfire, though. You put something somewhere becuase “it fits” but suddenly your players are sure something you didn’t intend has happened because of the layout
Once in a few sessions. Party because that’s on our characters to decide how they address the goal and partly because I create jobs where “covert” seems to be first thought. Not that I would be against them going berserk, it just often seems like the proper approach
I still prepare maps, though. I’ve learned that theater of mind does not work with me, my players were sill lost in what’s where. Probably it would be a good idea to learn how to do ToM properly but I feel I still need to learn other things first. And these are still useful for showing where the cameras and the doors are
I only played Karma in the Dark, I’m not sure how vanilla it is
In the end it’s just a game. If skipping some consequences makes everyone happy with the game, then everyone is happy ;)
But my 2¢ would be:
GM told us about all the holds he didn’t use to try to stay in the “plot” and not add extra complication to an already complicated story
Yes, I can. But you need much more to accomplish this
