Pwech. I don't play D&D!

I play Pathfinder...

[-] Susaga@sh.itjust.works 50 points 2 months ago

It just occurred to me that Pathfinder is to D&D what Linux is to Windows. More technically complex, less moral baggage, less mainstream and its fans won't shut up about it.

[-] UNY0N@lemmy.wtf 37 points 2 months ago

What a fitting anology! I'm going to start saying "I play Pathfinder BTW" at the end of every TTRPG comment now, I love it hahahahaha.

[-] Susaga@sh.itjust.works 14 points 2 months ago

Would you believe me if I said I didn't check your comment history before posting that? I just assumed that a programmer who plays Pathfinder also uses Linux.

[-] EnsignWashout@startrek.website 5 points 2 months ago

That could get old. But...

I play Pathfinder, by the way.

[-] Iron_Lynx@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Do you happen to also use Arch?

[-] EnsignWashout@startrek.website 3 points 2 months ago

Do you happen to also use Arch?

No. If I did, I would say so!

Haha.

(Apologies to my arch-user peers.)

"I play Pathfinder BTW"

Looks like a Vampire player thing, but may also worx for you :)

In our defense it's a pain to get people to try it.

[-] DmMacniel@feddit.org 6 points 2 months ago

Just like Linux.

[-] festnt@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago

and pathfinder is way more open (AoN), just like linux

And Wizards of the Coast (since bought by Hasbro) are like Microsoft, trying to control the platform as closely as possible, trying to define how people use their platform

I can feel the blank stare that this correction would elicit in the vast majority of people. To normies it’s like saying you eat fruit rounds instead of fruit loops.

[-] Diurnambu1e@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago

If you understand why it is corrected you are a geek.

[-] lib1@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago

Oh 100% I’m DMing Draw Steel tomorrow night

[-] eerongal@ttrpg.network 8 points 2 months ago

I haven't heard terribly many people talk about draw steel, honestly. I'd be interested to hear what you think about it after trying it out.

[-] lib1@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

From our session 0, character creation is really neat. Everything is very modular and flavorful. I went in with a few choices for systems depending on how people wanted to approach the campaign and we chose Draw Steel because the group is made up of people who enjoy crunchy combat. I’ll try and remember to follow up after I’ve run a session

[-] orenj@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 2 months ago

Hell yeah sibling, id also be interested in hearing how that goes. I've been wanting to run DS since it came out but you know how long campaigns go
