Random idea for high-lethality D&D campaigns: Character death unlocks new classes and races.
Random idea for high-lethality D&D campaigns: Character death unlocks new classes and races. Maybe useful in “special snowflake” campaigns where no one reads your carefully crafted setting material.

However: the fruits of such labor would serve no one if they are never complete.
ReplyDeleteI began to regard requirements as less science, and more art: you will never finish any given piece, you simply stop working on it. Then your work can get on with the business of being useful or entertaining to its audience. Because "Done" is better than "Perfect."
Yep, all I'm doing is moving words around. At this point I'm not changing any mechanics or anything. I should password protect the document by closing my eyes and slapping the keyboard.
ReplyDeleteAccording to Jared Sorensen & John Wick, "better" is the enemy of "done".
