Also, player trading and markets are cool, especially when combined with a competent crafting system. Bonus points if combined with housing, such as letting you make a store with npc staff n' stuff like that!

Anything customizable on the players-end is nice! Housing and decoration are always nice, as is letting you write up a character backstory that others can parse through. I'd also say that player-created content falls in that boat, like City of Heroes mission architect stuff, or Neverwinter's Foundry

This is canon in my heart

Fair reaction tbh

Maybe the real vampire was the friends we made along the way

He's just a little sleepy

Could also give some fun support options - like a class or build path that fucks with stamina generation, maybe both in and out of combat. Maybe it's charisma based, to give charisma some combat application? Like... an orator or demagogue that distracts, inspires and intimidates w/o magic. Idk

It'd probably work pretty well in that case, modular turns are more creatively freeing imo. I don't remember if you mentioned whether stamina increases with level, but it could be fun to play around with.

XPtoLevel3 has a Fallout system that uses Fallout-style AP, it's pretty well designed imo.

- to managing another resource.

If you really want a mechanical disincentive, boost the dc for each successive attempt. The lock getting damaged, physical fatigue, unverified knowledge, the npc getting annoyed at your requests/threats/lies - raising the dc covers most things.

I'd need to see it in action, but my first impression is that a stamina system would just add clutter without making things more fun. I worry it'd feel too mobile game-y in practice.

I'd honestly prefer being told "You can't retry 'X' check without a change of tactics" - (1/2)

He just like me fr fr

Twitter is a circus that turns people into sad clowns. People are way too comfortable being weird and hateful on that hellsite.

From what I've heard about Patreon from friends, they appear to be pushing against NSFW stuff. It's probably safer to go for Fansly in that regard.

Just become a skeleton, no flesh sack or death to worry about
