Game Overview___ This is an adaptation of an MMORPG “Final Fantasy XIV”. I have adapted few games into TTRPG style, all with great success. This is my next project. We will be progressing through story of main game and move into expansions if party wishes to. If you have played FFXIV, you are still welcome, however, note that the story of FF14 is main focus of this campaign, therefore you might not find as much enjoyment from it as you would like. ___2. Game Progression___ Game will not be an open world. Instead, there will be a story progression where you will be moving between locations and regions following the plot. In the given locations you will be able to choose additional activates and have your own free time to “fool around”. Additionally, you will be able to go back to previous locations, provided you have good reasons, but marching into enemy kingdom with a random plan will not be feasible. ___3. Story Overview___ This will be a “hero story”. Where you and your companions (NPCs) will play a key role in world changing events. Ofc, early on you will not go fight gods, but story does pick up somewhat quickly throwing you into important regional events, which outcome will put you in the ears of important people. You will play a more important role than your NPC companions, but often they will take a spotlight in World Lore is too extensive to be posted here, TL;DR, high magic + low hextech, unique races, many different cultures, ensuing war, undiscovered mysteries of ancient civilization, gods and heroes. All important details will be made available to players and during an interview I can give a smaller description. ___4. Custom System___ We will be using a custom TTRPG system which I have been developing for close to 3 years and tested in many games with great success. If you have played D&D and/or Pathfinder, you will have no trouble in adapting. Core of the system design is “Class-freedom” where an intention is to invest into many “classes” creating your own build (heavy multiclassing). ___5. RP and Combat Balance___ You choose to either “stay a while and listen” or get to the point and let’s get going. The world of FF is quite complex, so I will not be able to give you all information you might want and some thing will just be used as tool to progress the story, without much meaning behind it, you will have plenty of opportunities to contemplate with NPCs about your goals and world. In terms of combat, I will not throw at you small and random combats. Majority of the fight have a purpose beside “obstacle from point A to B”. In terms of combat, I will not throw at you small and random combats. Majority of the fight have a purpose beside “obstacle from point A to B”. If terms of “Death” I’m currently deciding on a system for it, but it will be most likely decided with players as death is a problematic topic for the game flow. ___6. About me as DM___ I have been running TTRPGs game for close to 8 years. I’m a quiet DM, where I let you RP to your heart content, however, I always listen and always take notes, so be mindful of your actions. I’m also very laid back, allowing for most of player ideas to take form and even encourage a really good one. I do not mind changing the story to suit your new creation. I do have few very good tools in my disposal for many problematic situations for players. So if party has troubles solving an issue, I will be always able to help from shadows, while letting the party take the whole credit. ___7. Expectations from Players___ As the story of this campaign is most important aspect, I will be expecting 100% of your attention. I will not tolerate people who have to be reminded about their turns in combat or asking “what we doing next” 10 minutes after being explicitly told by an NPC. That said, everyone has a worse day ever so often or just plainly forgets so do not feel pressured all the time. ___8. Game Time___ Game is set to take place on Sundays somewhere past 1 PM GMT +1 (TBD exact). If you are interested, feel free to PM me with your Discord ID and we can have a chat. If you have any questions, I'm here and open as well, or preferably do the above.
