Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
*Especially since a lot of Yu-Gi-Oh lore fits right in with a Fantasy RPG.
**May not cite how the card game as depicted in the manga as originally a simplified version of Magic the Gathering with the same basic premise.I also answer to Bookmark and Shadow Claw.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
* May not point out that at some points Magic & Wizards/Duel Monsters played more like a board game or RPG.
Considering who the final villain is and what the final game played is, I wouldn't be shocked if the lore being so good for RPGs is intentional. It's easy to forget that the original manga was focused on games in general, with some chapters just using them as a metaphor for a dangerous situation. So when the final game is an RPG based on the series lore it makes me itch for an actual Millennium World RPG.
Maybe I should just write the thing.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
Yeah. I often wonder what the series would have been like if they'd stuck to the original plan instead of the card game taking up most of the plot.
I have the mental image of the final battle against Pegasus being a game of Monopoly. Monopoly for your very soul with every single annoying House Rule that keeps the game going long after it stops being fun enforced to the letter.
And we know that the general plot was planned years in advance, since zorc appeared in the manga as an inconsequential piece in a boardgame/rpg fusion long before the series lore got to his proper appearance, so...I also answer to Bookmark and Shadow Claw.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
I suspect we'd have got to Egypt faster, which might have let us spend more time there.
I'm not sure it would have been Monopoly, I'm picturing something like Settlers of Catan or Poker. Actually I can see Poker working really well considering it makes the Eye a potentially even bigger advantage.

**I can't pretend something isn't a children's card game by giving it a ridiculously overblown name
***Especially when said name doesn't even describe any aspect/theme of the game
****"Paradox-Billiards-Vostroyan-Roulette-4th-Dimensional-Hypercube-Chess-Strip-Poker" is right out, no matter how many divinities supposedly play it.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
Just replying to this as an excuse to bust out one of my favourite quotes.
From John D Clark's Ignition! An Informal History of Liquid Rocket Propellants.
It is, of course, extremely toxic, but that's the least of the problem. It is hypergolic with every known fuel, and so rapidly hypergolic that no ignition delay has ever been measured. It is also hypergolic with such things as cloth, wood, and test engineers, not to mention asbestos, sand, and water—with which it reacts explosively. It can be kept in some of the ordinary structural metals—steel, copper, aluminum, etc.—because of the formation of a thin film of insoluble metal fluoride that protects the bulk of the metal, just as the invisible coat of oxide on aluminum keeps it from burning up in the atmosphere. If, however, this coat is melted or scrubbed off, and has no chance to reform, the operator is confronted with the problem of coping with a metal-fluorine fire. For dealing with this situation, I have always recommended a good pair of running shoes.

I have not encountered this fine substance myself, but reading up on its properties immediately gives it a spot on my “no way, no how” list. Let’s put it this way: during World War II, the Germans were very interested in using it in self-igniting flamethrowers, but found it too nasty to work with. It is apparently about the most vigorous fluorinating agent known, and is much more difficult to handle than fluorine gas. That’s one of those statements you don’t get to hear very often

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
* My character concept may not be "A Humanoid version of a monster hunter creature"
** Especially if its an elder dragon or xeno'jiiva
* I cannot attempt to go around game by game asking if I can play an orc as if I'm going down a list
** Especially if some of those games don't even have orcs
* May not make a random comedic relief dwarf bard named "Jalapalazzi" the campaigns secret BBEG
** Or somehow contrive it so that the real mastermind was an intelligent dog, mouse, rabbit or any other random furry animal all along in a plot to wipe out humanity so that animals may rule the earth instead

****I am not allowed to play a monster girl who goes around naked because her body is absolutely flawless and her flesh and bone are more durable than even the finest of armors.
*****Even if that's the description of one of the sample player characters.
******Even if her fur/scales cover up anything that might be considered indecent.I also answer to Bookmark and Shadow Claw.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
I can't play a godlike superhuman who never wanted to adventure and just wants to lie a quiet life in a cabin in the woods somewhere and who only adventures because fate and chance bend themselves into pretzels to keep them from getting a moment's peace.

No more magic powers that turn all clothes, armors, and body coverings in the universe perfectly invisible as soon as someone puts them on. The DM can't keep up.
Also not allowed to corner multi-star system paint & dye markets before making the spell.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
A manga abput to become anime does exactly this. A woman dies from overworking, gets reincarnated and lives a liesurely life, killing a few slimes here and there for cash. Then learns she's become super OP, and doesn't care. Tries to hide it, it leaks and suddenly her liesure is gone as she's challenged regularly by adventurers. And dragons. And demons.
It's kinda a fun read and I am looking forward to the april anime.
