DFRPG / Realism vs Gameplay
« on: May 14, 2011, 11:21:02 PM »
On a scale of one to ten, where do you stand on realism vs gameplay? Likewise why do you stand there?

One - Unless you're doing with with magic, you better damned well respect the laws of reality.

Five - The laws of reality can be ignored if they get in the way of fun, but otherwise should still be respected.

Ten - Reality? Laws? What are those?

Myself, I am around four or five. I like structure and consistency a lot, but frankly fun is more important then anything else in a game!

DFRPG / Introducing the RPG to a non-Dresden group
« on: May 07, 2011, 05:40:45 AM »
Pretty much what it says on the tin. I'm trying to get my GM to try out the Dresden Files RPG, but he's never read any books of the series, neither has anyone else in our group.

How would the best way to go about doing this? I am hoping to keep it as close to canon as possible without actual story book events getting in the way of our groups games. What should have priority when I tell them about the series? I've warned them that the books are spoiler-heavy, so that wont be an issue.

On another note, one of the people who I hope to have join has expressed interest in playing Call of Cthulhu. Given the Social and Mental Stress, how would you go about adapting DFRPG to a CoC-style game? Outsiders have already been mentioned as being the thing for HP Lovecraft's series, but what would the mechanical adaptions be like?

Thank you for your time!
