To Live and Die in Dungeons & Dragons By Lore Sjöberg Email 09.12.07 | 12:00 AM Dungeons & Dragons Discussion Board Topic: D&D Edition 4
werehairbear 09-09-07: 1:53 a.m. Hey, guys, did you hear they're making a new version of D&D? I hope they make it harder for characters to die in the new edition. As far as I'm concerned, when I'm Dungeon Master, characters should only die if it's important to the dramatic arc of the story or if they annoy me. DrizztDoherty 09-09-07: 1:59 a.m. Ah, I don't worry about characters dying that much as long as one of them survives and can cast Resurrection, or can pay a cleric to do it. In fact, in the campaign I run there are magical insurance policies, and sometimes the monsters say, "I just saved a ton of money on my resurrection insurance!" Well, just that one time, I'm still recovering from the beating. Goku1443 09-09-07: 2:12 a.m. You let your players cast Resurrection? How cheesy. In my game, if you want someone raised, you need to get the High Priest to do it for you. First, you have to do a quest to get someone to tell you where the High Priest is. Then you have to do a quest before they'll let you in the temple. Then you have to do a quest before they'll let you talk to the High Priest. Then you have to do a quest to prove to the High Priest that you're serious. Then it's time for some REAL questing. After that you can get your friends raised, just in time for the obligatory post-resurrection debt quests. LordOrcus 09-09-07: 2:15 a.m. I can't believe you guys let characters come back from the dead. In my campaign, if you're dead, you're dead. No takebacks, no comebacks and NO RESURRECTIONS. You just grab a fresh character sheet and start statting out a new character, one level lower than the last one. I guess some people just can't handle a hardcore campaign. I just wish they'd make the character-generation rules faster, though. It really sucks when you have to take a half-hour break three times a night. assassin-of-gnomes 09-09-07: 2:21 a.m. ONE LEVEL LOWER? You call that hardcore? In my campaign, if you die you start your next character over at first level. You get to clean the boots of the other characters for a while, until you get enough experience points to carry their torches. That's if you don't end up biting it in the "initiation ceremonies" the other characters come up with. Don't like it? DON'T DIE! That's hardcore. Anything less and the players are just going to treat Dungeons and Dragons like some sort of game. CleanseByFire 09-09-07: 2:32 a.m. What, are you playing Candyland: The Extra Nice Edition? When you die you get to START OVER? In my campaign, once your character dies, that's it for you. You're out of the campaign. Get out of my house, you're done. I'll call you when I start a new campaign. Leave the chips. screamsofthedamned 09-09-07: 2:37 a.m. You let the players just LEAVE when a character dies? Do you make them warm milk and tuck them in at night, too? Maybe give them a little foot rub? In my campaign, if your character dies, he doesn't come back, but you do. You have to sit in on all the games and watch everyone else play, knowing that you were a pathetic loser who couldn't even keep his character alive. HARD. CORE. gary 09-09-07: 2:45 a.m. Let's just say that when a player lets a character die in my campaign, that player never plays D&D, or any other game, ever again.
Moui, enfin, jouer à D&D c'est quand même la lose. D'ailleurs, depuis la nouvelle édition, c'est carrément plus un jeu de plateau qu'autre chose (ils ont fait le forcing sur les gurines, les cases et les plans). Welcome back in 1974.
Lire qu'on se sert de ça pour juger tous les jeux de rôle, je crois que je vais aller me coller une balle.

Sinon, à propos de DD4 :
Nigel Tufnel: The numbers all go to 4. Look, right across the book, 4, 4, 4 and... Marty DiBergi: Oh, I see. And most gamemasters go up to 3.5? Nigel Tufnel: Exactly. Marty DiBergi: Does that mean it's better? Is it any better? Nigel Tufnel: Well, it's a half better, isn't it? It's not 3.5. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at 3.5. You're on 3.5 here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on 3.5 in your dungeon. Where can you go from there? Where? Marty DiBergi: I don't know. Nigel Tufnel: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do? Marty DiBergi: Put it up to 4. Nigel Tufnel: 4. Exactly. One half better. Marty DiBergi: Why don't you just make 3.5 better and make 3.5 be the top number and make that a little better? Nigel Tufnel: [pause] This go to 4.

Parce que c'est un truc sérieux, une vraie pub ? Naaan... Ils se foutent trop de la gueule des Dédés. Et le présentateur avec son accent français en fait trop...

C'est pourtant la vidéo qui a été diffusée par Wizards lors de la GenCon Indy de cette année. Va sur la page officielle et clique sur teaser video si tu me crois pas : http://www.wizards.com/dnd
Mat dit:j'aimerais comprendre pourquoi le présentateur a un accent français qui ferait pâlir un monty python...
it's very chic.
Mat dit:en tout cas si c'est pour jouer a D&D assisté par ordinateur, autant jouer à Diablo ou Baldur's Gates
il m'est arrivé de mener assisté d'un portable et c'est pas mal, une fois que l'on s'y est habitué. Evidemment il faut tout avoir en numérique, mais c'est pas mal pour présenter les docs, les images des persos, et surtout pour les bruitages et la musique. Je m'étais fait un "paravent" en html basique (incapable de faire mieux) sous firefox, chaque onglet pour un thème (combat, magie, bestioles, des raccourcis pour les bruitages, etc.). Pour les PNJ avec un tableur c'est nickel pour suivre PV, etc. Avec un peu d'entraînement avant ca tourne. J'imagine que pour quelqu'un qui peut coder des trucs un peu plus élaborés, c'est encore mieux. Par contre il ne faut pas oublier de faire un cache en carton évocateur pour le pc, parce que pour les joueurs jouer devant toshiba ou sony, ca ne le fait pas trop. Sauf cyberpunk j'imagine.
