Via Discord and Roll20, i got to play Numenera.
and... I have had a few realisations
1/ the inattentiveness and phone playing with that so irritates me about my players, I'm as guilty of.
i need to address that.
2/ I am a terrible rules lawyer.
In my head I was cringing at all the "in my games i...." until i pulled back and realised, I am honoured to be playing this thing. i shouldn't be criticising.
and the game was good.
3/ Am I a good player?
almost like the impostor syndrome i get before playing a gig, I'm so used to being behind-the-screen in games i don't know if I'm a good player to be having in front of it.
4/ Numenera is as good to play as it is to run.
Having to use the system that i feel kinda i own? amazing.
Roll20's adaptation of it is good including the roll macros and DC calc... brilliant.
If i can just figure out how to macro in stat pool spends that would be amazing
and the setting - as lush and grand and small scale as I envisaged it.
