What do you like more Squish or Crunch? (1 Viewer)

I'm providing a friend of mine a bit of editorial assistance in designing a new game system. The system is very flexible, fast and squishy. It does not attempt to model reality. Instead, the design goal is to facilitate development of story. So there's alot of squish.

I've also designed a fantasy setting in D20 for use as a model for fantasy writing. As I'm sure you're all aware, D20 is pretty chrunchy with rules designed to mimic reality as closely as possible.

While working on both of these projects, I started to wonder- Should I keep my setting as D20 based or put it into a new system designed for more squish?

The main problem I have with D20 is magic. I just don't like the D20 magic system. It's a bit too restrictive.

So I'm left with two options.
1. Create an alternate magic system for D20.
or
2. Go for more squish and convert what I have to a system that is more flexible overall.

So I thought I'd ask you guys what you thought before making my decision.

Do you like squish- games like Amber and Feng Shui where reality is more flexible- based on story rather than mechanics and some of the burden of narration falls to the players.

Do you like crunch- game systems like D20 that define reality through rules and game mechanics?

Aside from say, champions, or rulemaster, D20 is one of the most overdesigned systems around. Rules for falling, rules for breathing, rules for how stinky poo is.

But seriously, just look at the spell system where you have oh, ten rules for each spell that specifically defines how it will operate in reality.

A game where there is magic and dragons and people can fall from a great height unscathed and people jump around like a Streetfighter character is hardly what I'd call 'realistic'.

Realism has nothing to do with it. What you are talking about (and what D&D3 is 'guilty' of) is detailism. If I say that 'this spell creates one or more missiles of magic energy that hit people and hurt them, about as much as a real arrow' that is just as 'realistic' as the description of Magic Missile you can find in the rulebook. It just has a lot of less details.

Whether or not D&D is realistic (there's gonna be strong reactions to THAT one!) I don't thing is really the issue. D&D *is* rules intensive (unneccesarily in some ways, but hey. we all grew up playing it). As for the question "Crunchy or Squishy?" I know that up until recently I've been pro-crunchy (I was a die-hard GURPS fan for about 4 years), but the older I get and the more games I play I like a degree of squish. White wolf never worked all that great for me, but AEG stuff did for the most part, as did Star Wars d6 (Which was at its root squishy, but crunchier when you got deeper in). The Riddle of Steel's like that.

I think I like the mechanic to be overall squishy and easily customizable, but with optional crunchy bits. The big thing is that it has to run fast and not require too many rolls, although lots of dice is fine. Seperate rolls for initiative (every round no less), to-hit, defense, damage, and "soak" are ludicrous, and also all common features of so-called "simple" systems.

Speed above simplicity, I think. If it runs slow, it detracts from play. Complexity is only marginally involved.

Call it what you like. Realism, detailism. It's all there to make a world seem more realistic hence the crunch.

Well, what you call it does make a difference.

Anyway, count me in for squishy, because it makes for a more realistic game.

Realism is often a matter of perception. A realistic game is one which in play produces results which feel realistic to my group. Would they feel realistic to someone else's group? Mostly, but probably not always (as we are likely to have differing views on how likely some stuff is in the real world). But who cares? My group, the one I play in, find it realistic and since I like realism in games that's good enough for me.

So, IMO, OtE is capable of greater realism than Gurps. Note, capable of, not necessarily is. The reason it's capable of more realism is that if a group are largely agreed on what outcomes are realistic OtE is sufficiently flexible to permit them to narrate those kinds of outcomes. If a group find this difficult (for whatever reason) Gurps will be more realistic as it will provide a reasonable level of realism while providing a rules framework which will settle disputes, the result may not be what everyone considers realistic but disputes over rules break a sense of realistic play far more than one or two dodgy rulings will.

Let's define realism

Before any real blood is shed over whether d20 is "realistic,"

let's all state what our definition of "realism" is. You'd be surprise how many different definitions there can be of that darn word.

For example, I define a "realism" as the "do you buy it?" factor, a kind of suspension of disbelief. If the players "buy it," the game's realistic. If something happens in-game that makes a player say "that's so stupid!" or "that would never happen!" etc., the player's don't buy it an the game is not realistic.

I mostly prefer crunchy. I think crunchy systems do a better job of suspending disbelief even though the outcomes are sometimes dissapointing. They also help to prevent GM partiality.

As for your quandry, I'd probably go with your friends system if it is complete and you don't mind the squishy. Redesigning D&D's magic system would not be an easy task I'd wager.

Mahomes Magic Crunch Cereal Is Back In Kansas City Stores And Is Likely To Sell Out Before Sunday

Not that he has a thing about his hometown football team and its quarterback, but don’t even think about asking Josh Weinstock to open his box of Mahomes Magic Crunch.

“I intend to keep that sealed ‘til the day I die,” Weinstock said. “If my grandchildren wanna open it one day, may they be cursed.”

A third shipment of the cereal was sent to Kansas City-area stores this week ahead of Super Bowl LIV. The new boxes were scheduled to be placed in stores Tuesday, said Tina Potthoff, Hy-Vee’s senior vice-president of communications.

The first two shipments that landed in the fall quickly sold out. Boxes, which sell in stores for $3.99, have popped up on Amazon and eBay, priced at anywhere between $9 and $19.95.

The Des Moines-based grocery chain signed Mahomes to an exclusive three-year deal last April, and he appears in the company’s TV commercials. It's one of many products Mahomes has attached his name and likeness to during his meteoric rise to the top of the NFL.

A percentage of proceeds from the cereal sales goes to the 15 and the Mahomies Foundation, which is dedicated to improving the lives of children. Hy-Vee won’t release any sales figures, but Potthoff said the company originally expected to sell 50,000 boxes. Since the Chiefs have had such a successful season, making the franchise's first Super Bowl in 50 years, they now expect to sell 300,000.

Likewise, the company initially expected to raise $25,000 for Mahomes’ non-profit, but the grocer now expects its donation to top $100,000.

The cereal is similar to Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes, which was Mahomes’ favorite cereal growing up, Potthoff said. The cereal is a limited edition, and Hy-Vee expects it will sell out of the cereal before Sunday's Super Bowl.

Mahomes Magic Crunch is a cereal similar to Frosted Flakes, which was Mahomes' favorite cereal growing up.

Since when did athletes start hocking their own cereal instead of aiming for the front of a Wheaties box? Seems it started with something called “Flutie Flakes.” Doug Flutie, then-quarterback for the Buffalo Bills, partnered with a Pittsburgh company in 1998 to raise money for his foundation.

The company, PLB Sports, Inc., now markets a variety of products for many sports and athletes, from Ed McCaffrey’s Spicy Brown Mustard, named after the NFL player and coach, to WWE Superstar Fruit Snacks.

Many athletes use the products to raise their profiles for marketing reasons while raising money for a personal charity, said Stephen Mosher, a professor of sports studies at Ithaca College in New York.

“The success of Flutie Flakes…demonstrated the power of fundraising for a cause through personalizing otherwise boring staples,” Mosher said, adding that the product can still be found occasionally in Buffalo and the suburbs of Boston, where Flutie played college football .

Mosher said it’s possible to get a generic cereal packaged into a special box “just about anywhere now,” and that even lots of high school sports teams do it.

“This is a win-win-win situation,” Mosher said. “Raise money for charity, raise one's own ‘good citizen’ profile, and get some sports memorabilia as well. And maybe even an acceptable breakfast.”

Weinstock, a life-long Kansas City resident, said he and his wife don’t have kids just yet, so he was joking about cursing his grandchildren. But he is keeping the box away from his dog, Goldie Mae.

“The cereal box displays proudly in my man cave,” Weinstock said, “alongside a decent collection of Royals bobbleheads.”
