RPG Heartbreaker Quest

[MJ12 Commando]

You are Some Guy, a person who has only played one RPG ever. You have decided, today, to write a RPG.

You will make the absolute bestest RPG ever. But you have to make some hard decisions. Your RPG will be set in...

[ ] A fantasy setting.

[ ] It will be a fantasy setting! With dungeons! And dragons! And magic! Like D&D!​

[ ] No, it has to be DARK! And gritty!​

[ ] No! Urban fantasy! With wolves! Possibly white ones! And vampires.​

[ ] A sci-fi setting.

[ ] Space opera! With pew pew laser guns!​

[ ] Cyberpunk!​

[ ] Hard sci-fi!​

[ ] Fuck it, let's put it all in. We're going to make the most epic RPG!

[x] Fuck it, let's put it all in. We're going to make the most epic RPG!
-[x] also steampunk
This is obviously bestest option.

[Dark Ness]

[X] Fuck it, let's put it all in. We're going to make the most epic RPG!

-[X] Dungeonpunk Space Opera! Magic powered laser guns are go! Summon a blazing mecha! Be the arcane engineer!

[X] Write-In: I want to write a small story game about war correspondence, editorializing and censorship. I don't see it being more than ten pages long.

 

[MJ12 Commando]

[X] Let's put it all in.

You decide to write a game with no clear theme. It will be a sci-fantasy hard-magic urban dungeonpunk space cyberopera with gritty realism. That'll clearly get you the largest audience. That means you need to think of a resolution system for your game. Your game will have a resolution system involving:

[ ] d100s
[ ] d20s
[ ] d10s
[ ] d6s
[ ] Hats of d02s
[ ] Why should it have only one die mechanic?

[X] Why should it have only one die mechanic?

More = better

 

[Bailey Matutine]

[X] Clearly, only the noble d34 can contain the majesty of this game.

 

[InfiniteDaze]

This is...

I don't know.

 

[Quantumboost]

[X] Coin flips

There is no coin flip choice. If you want d02s, you must say that your Hat of D02 knows no limit.

It's an April Fool's quest. It's also a what not to do in RPG design guide disguised as a quest, as @open_sketchbook knows.

 

[Quantumboost]

Fiiiiiiine.

[X] Hats of d02s
-[X] No limits
--[X] Like with exploding dice

 

[Bailey Matutine]

Come on guys, the QM agrees with me about the d34.

 

[Master Basher]

[X] All the dice variants, a 5 Suit card deck with Tarot, and verbose reference on your High School mathematics book for charts and statisticsstatistics. It's the only way for the most immersion.
-[X] And magical girls and ponies, in order to maximise the fan base

Let's vote for uber FATAL, with Blackjack and hookers, and Tarot too!

EDIT: damn pony typo. Good pony typo

 

[open_sketch]

[X] Simple pools of unmodified d6s will do.

@open_sketchbook stop shitposting in this thread or I will report you that is all

We are here to design the best RPG ever and none of your suggestions are even close to the best

[modrony]

[x] It's collectable card game

because of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
