Downtown Rumbles: Sharp's Scotch Bar

...Years later and I still find Zetton, despite his occasional worfing, to be one hell of a badass.

Especially for actually blocking the dreaded uppercut.

Ho yes. Still recalling the side story where he demands one of the guys harassing Tesshou's sister to call himself out...Then superkicks the *******.

...And then that moment he destroyed Butcher with one punch to the face.

Idk the other game you’re thinking of honestly, and I’ll be waiting

The other game in question is Starlancer. Also, while I'm still at work (and can't answer in full), this:

The idea was the way Nemesis Tech works is that while you may want to specialize, you’ll need to balance or at least lever yourself. Tying speed to other stats because if people just dump into speed then they’ll tear themselves apart first time they thrust in battle is the idea. Like anchor stats

If you get High in speed need to tie it to two stats, the points increase as more are added.

is an example of something that should already be posted as part of the character creation post.

That's a good start, but if blitzing is possible as noted then the problem I have with speed (well, one of them) still exists.

The second people become capable of blitzing other people, we get into the idea that one character can do all kinds of things when another character cannot. Or render their skill impotent due to speed (which is blitzing). That's a problem.

Indeed.

A single stat (or small subset of stats) that can render the others completely (or even just mostly) irrelevant is a major problem.

I'm all for removing 'speed' from the equation as a combat modifier, myself, or rolling it up into other stats like 'Attack stat'.

I try to make characters that trade speed for esoterics ... esoterecism(?), or create characters who at the least, if they possess a speed advantage, don't really rely on it given the negatives.

Also I enjoy making my characters suffer to one extent or the other. Suffering builds character. Or kills them!

Win/win.

I'm cool with that, but wish it wouldn't be in games period. It's a killer for me.

No disagreement, there.

True, it can be a bother. Especially if it can't be ignored.

No disagreement, there.

I'm sure there's a limit, and I think that limit was reached recently in Cleric's RP ... but eh. I'm enjoying the attempt of creating a complex character. For the most part since I've stared RPing they've all been fairly linear.

Alright Len you can go ahead and post the same link and be late again

This sounds like a good idea, probably modify it into just one big attack stat, or if it gets shelved just so that for a repost

An attack stat would be good to add then, though should I just wait or?

I tend to prefer using Athletics over Speed, or using Speed as a general movement ability. It can account for raw speed, in terms of movement across the field a few more spaces, or performing a special quick draw move (which should require a dice roll), but more to the point accounts for traversing terrain obstacles, dodging, or recovering from falling in a trap, as opposed to worrying about speedblitz shenanigans.

I wonder how many generations of my grandkids it will take for the next episode of DBZA to air.
