At Disadvantage

Why are Disadvantages at the heart of roleplay?This episode Che and Pat are discussing character creation in GURPS with a focus on disadvantages as meaningful roleplaying elements rather than just point sources. They emphasise that disadvantages should reflect character depth, create interesting dilemmas, and be limited to a reasonable number to maintain playability while adding flavour to characters. The conversation also covers adapting content from other game systems to GURPS, creating custom disadvantages, and the importance of self-control rolls in gameplay.Big thanks to Frank T for the call-in!GOT A QUESTION?Ask us via voice message:speakpipe.com/gurpstalkAsk us via an email:[email protected]:Jon from Tale of the Manticore for the music:https://taleofthemanticore.podbean.com/Logo by MJ Hiblen:https://www.patreon.com/MJHiblenART/DISCLAIMER & NOTICE:The material presented here is our original creation, intended for use with the GURPS system from Steve Jackson Games.
