I keep reading over various internets communities, how being a GM is hard, how player are ungrateful spoiled kids, and how much GM struggles.
So which games have tools/mechanics to ease the GM job, and which are these.
For this discussion I would focus on the game itself, rather than on method used by groups.
Even though I feel like I know some answers, judging how active the community is at the moment, I try to open that thread and may-be a few others to keep the /c/ alive
I sincerely do not know how you people can meadure space and time in your games. Like what the fuck is 30 feet? What are 6 seconds really? it sounds lile a shit quantity, but is it enough to flourish something? How long is 30 feet? Do I really need measurements and rulers or squaremaps to have fun? Especially as a non american, it baffles me
@h3rm17 @jjjalljs 30 feet is about 9 meters, if that’s any help. But given that you’re also asking how long 6 seconds is when that’s the same regardless of country, I’m assuming not?
@h3rm17 only use those bits if they make sense to you and your group, otherwise just guess. So many indie games nowadays have a variation on abstracted relative distances to explain how long it takes you to get somewhere or how hard a target is to hit, like hand/close/near/far
I keep this page book marked because it has convenient photos for how far away things are: https://www.prisonpolicy.org/zones/thousand_feet.html
The content is worth reading, too.
