Title: I HAVE GLORY!!!!!
Post by: esper on Fri 03/03/2006 06:19:11
I have excessive glory!!! I just signed on with Silven publishing to start work freelancing a series of ESPER pen and paper RPG's and supplements! Rock the heck on!

I just thought I'd mention something to the community. Not like anyone eagerly awaits my next posts with as much relish as you might wait for, say, a good punch in the mouth, but nevertheless, I figure I'd let you all know why I might not be around too much. I'll still check up on you guys every day, but I won't open my fat mouth on such a frequent basis.

BTW, I'm having a little bit of a problem working out the combat system. I want a style of play that revolves more around role-playing than game mechanics, and as such, I'd like to try to do away with initiative and some other things that make RPG combat seem "mechanical" and unrealistic. If anyone has any ideas, or might be interested in some playtesting, let me know.

Good luck and congratulations.

I'd help you work out your game play mechanics but I'm not a big fat nerd who spends all his time in his mother's basement pretending to be a female high elf...

I moved out and got my own basement for that sort of thing!

Congrats!

How do you like living in your basement, esper? I remember these huge fights you had with your mama, with you wanting to move out! Did it work?

Anyway, I'll ponder a little for the combat system, in case I get a flashy idea or something... But so as you know, I for one, was waiting eagerly for youtr return...
