Everyone needs time off, even your adventurers! Having gone out of the house to just sit by the side of the river with some friends this morning has inspired today’s post. The recent game Tales From The Loop involves a mechanic where your characters needed to ‘connect’ with pre-designated people in order to recover energy and sanity. I like building this into the game- having some mechanic that means you have to personalize your character beyond being a collection of numbers and powers, and make you connect with them better. This was even a mechanic in the old Cyberpunk 2020 game, to restore your Humanity (lost through too much cheap cyberware and cheap violence). Have you seen any interesting mechanics like this? Something to help your characters just ‘chill out’ and relax? (Originally posted 11 February 2018) Categories All Comments are closed.
