This is why I hate calling it AI.

No way, you’re not fooling me. The name and statue and decorations and outfits could be coincidences. I’ll need hard proof, like a quote from someone who worked on the hotel.

Azura Deluxe Resort & Spa 5 (Avsallar, Turkey) is a new modern hotel. It was opened in 2015.

Both might have drawn mutual inspiration from elsewhere, but it would be infinitely funnier if this were a Skyrim statue made physical.

I lack the words, but not the ability to convey my thoughts

If you have one rug, I'll vomit on it.

If you have a million rugs, I’ll vomit on all of them.

If you have no rugs, it means my job is done.

Somewhere out there, an unrelated fear-riddled, unwashed, overweight, small-handed, peculiar-membered person is crying.

Most were killed in the rush to lick-clean Trump’s groin. Only the fastest and the moistest nft bros survive to this day.

Edited because I realized I goof’d a bit. The million dollar repair was a specific place, and likely not this one. These are fairly common in India, and this one very probably still exists.

And a funny I found while trying to find information

Edit: I was thinking of something else. But this is India and it does likely still exist, yes

I own the ocean and every swimming pool for a dozen miles but every time I try to use them, they say “please, you have to learn how to swim before we can allow you inside again.”

Oh no, you didn’t come across that way at all! I just felt obligated to explain the reason for where I’ll begin reading, given that you were my impetus, and I needed to affirm to myself that it was the right course after how miserable call of Cthulhu ended up being for one of my players. You are a lovely person with excellent taste in ttrpgs, and also very probably too hard on yourself.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m absolutely going to read up on it after mythras. It will just take me so much longer to get the feeling for how to tell the story of benevolent armored core ostensibly set in Macross. And even longer to adapt the lexicon that it deserves.

Like, I can currently describe thundering annihilation and cleaving the landscape in only so many ways. The mechanics are simple in comparison to avoiding repetitive verbiage. This is prime brisket. Mythras won’t require months for me to fully immerse myself, which is why I’m checking it first. It’s just much less involved and I need something to fall back on in case “the thing I’ve been super excited to show you guys” doesn’t fly.

Edit: also, how dare you introduce me to another comic that I now have to read

Lancer seems interesting but terrifyingly involved between the fresh setting, combat that feels like two legendary monsters fighting, and the host of new adjectives I’ll have to incorporate into my vocabulary. I’d only heard about it once before, from a zee bashew video, and it seems far more fleshed out than what I expected.

Mythras significantly cuts down on one of those, so I’ll probably try to figure that one out first. Multiple degrees of success and more gradation between the cost of actions seems pretty neat. Thank you for the recommendations! I’ll almost certainly need to chew on them for a while to really understand them, but I adore both setting and the mechanics behind them!

For war gaming, which system do you personally prefer, if you don’t mind my asking? I’m looking to molest some people with something fresh and pathfinder doesn’t always work out. I used to ask people on Reddit, but I’d rather not use that site again.

Oh, wargaming dnd? How’d you like it? Did 5e stand up well or did it need a lot of homebrewing?

The difference is pretty minor either way. I’ve never had more issues balancing this than I have with sorcerer burst damage or creation bards collapsing economies.

How long did that take you?? The highest we’ve ever gone is level 11, and that took a couple of years.

If you know anyone who has actually reached 20th level in a campaign, it might make a difference. I’ll put you in my will if I hit the lottery.

That still sounds balanced-ish. If anything, it’s too front-loaded. A 9th level rogue would still have its typical kit of sneakiness, skill proficiencies, and sneak attack at 9th level, but it wouldn’t have a 9th level bump via archetype because it received a 6th level bump via archetype.

A more typical example- a level 3 fighter/level 2 paladin wouldn’t get a second attack despite being a level 5 martial character, and they have to live with that mechanically poor decision. But they can instead choose to play until they become a level 5 fighter and then branch out instead, if they care to min/max.

And what gives you the impression it has to be 50/50? A sportsman can be great at throwing or hitting a ball, but it’s vastly different between one sport and another. You can be an incredible baseball pitcher and a garbage basketball player. Level 3 arcane trickster/level 17 assassin makes perfect sense to me.

Pretty simple, just treat it like spellcaster multiclassing. Wizard/sorcerer/cleric/ 1/1/1 translates to a level 3 spellcaster for the sake of spell slots. Rogue 3/3 translates to class features level 6 and archetype feature level 3/3
