That’s a very good point. When I DM, I always let the players avoid any unnecessary rolling, especially if they get into character and describe what they do, if so they want. Something like, “you can skip rolling, and this happens, or you can roll and try a better outcome, but also risk a worst one.” Works wonders with all kinds of skills. For example, (in PF2e), you can spend two actions to climb that wall, with no need of rolling, or spend one action and an Athletics check to see if you can do it faster.

The author may have a good point–though I’m honestly not entirely sure they do–, but even if the D20 vs DC turns the experience into a gamist simulation, what is exactly the problem? Personally, I’d rather play a game of dice than “mother may I” with the DM.

I’ve been playing since 2e, and I very much enjoy the mechanical aspect of the game, to the point that I grew tired of 5e lax and vague rules and moved to PF. That doesn’t mean 5e is bad, it’s just something different from what I want, and that is ok.

Thank you so much for your hard work. I’m loving the Voyager experience!

If I may be so bold to request something, could there be an option to disable “tap to collapse comment”? I find myself mistapping all the time, and if the username is long, it’s hard to find a place to retap to expand the comment again.

I am liking the game so far, but the dreadful drop rate on anything past rarity 1 is rapidly killing all excitement I have for it. It feels such a waste of time and disappointment to hunt higher rarity monsters, break their parts even, just to get a bunch of rarity 1 scales.

DM Mono for me! Fun game. There were some fonts that I liked, but seemed to have some kind of bug when displaying consecutive f, or fl or ft pairs. Not sure if the fonts themselves look like that or if it was a rendering issue.

I mind a bit (but not enough to cancel… yet), but do you honestly think the drivers will get a better wage out of this? Is Amazon Japan any less greedy than the american one?

Me! I never had the chance to play the first one, but this looks like the kind of game I would love.

Thanks for the answer!

I just don’t get what’s their goal, though. Seems like such a silly thing. Like made just to get a buyer and then retire for life.
