So, I decided to make a mech TTRPG based on classic mecha anime (and anime in general) for fun and part of the system is that your character and mech pick archetypes that give you beneficial and detrimental traits and abilities.

What I'm struggling with is coming up with more archetypes

Archetypes I have for characters:

. Reluctant hero

. Hotshot

. Newbie

. Pointdexter

. Icequeen

. Veteran

. Celebrity

Archetypes I have for mechs (these aren't the actual names, just using their playstyle names until I figure out names)

. Tank

. Ranged

. Melee

. Support

. Ambush

Any help would be appreciated, and if you're interested in viewing and maybe even playtesting when I have it all down I can give you a link to the google docs.

I was using my keyboard and mouse when for some reason, my keyboard (G715) just stopped working for no reason. My drivers are up tondate and I'm on windows 11.

​

I've restarted my PC, removed it from Bluetooth and Devices (and re-adding it) un(and re)plugged it, turned it on and off (idk what I was expecting with that one tbh)

Now that Elden Ring: Nightreign has been out for close to a year and it's unlikely we'll be getting any new content, I wanna say...

I'm disappointed

Or maybe dissatisfied is the word, part of the big appeal of Nightreign (which I'll refer to as NR from now on) is that it was a Dark Souls meets Elden ring in a souls rogue-lite package, and don't get me wrong, the game feels great to play, I have a bit over 200 hours into it, but it feels incomplete.

While yes, we did get Dark Souls content in the game, it didn't even feel secondary and more so as a way to bring in older fans.

What we do have feels bare bones, obviously NR was never gonna be a full on rogue-like, but rather a rogue-lite, yet I can't help but feel as though there isn't enough content (even including the DLC)

It really feels like a huge missed opportunity that they didn't add these things:

. DS weapons

. One or two new maps based on Caelid or Luirnia

. More bosses (especially DS bosses)

. More random events

. DS locations as shifting earths

. More skins for the characters

I know, so far this has been pretty negative, but I do like NR, it's been a blast to play with friends and even solo sometimes. I love the character variety with their abilities and move sets, I enjoy the movement.

It just feels like wasted potential, and I don't think it has a big enough modding community to keep it afloat for even the next 5, let alone 2 years.

I've spent the last hour downloading required mods to get into a game and it's been frustrating, and maybe part of it is that I'm somehow not understanding something.

1. I've needed battlefront plus to join a game, and I'll click the download mod button, and it will indeed download it, yet it still won't let me join, then I'll download it again and now I have two versions of the mod(???) and the same thing has happened with battlefront expanded

2. Whenever I try to download via the button, it'll say that it just can't download the mods for some reason (and it's mostly the hero mods)

I know the resurgence has started and I really wanna get back into the game, but I'm wondering if I should just play base BF2 on steam or do KyberV2

And if so, why?
