I've finished the "three" campaigns of FE7 and I can't say I'm a fan.
The tactical part is quite limited and repetitive and the actually challenging parts (long distance attack that can randomly one-shot weaker/weakened characters) feel a bit tacked on.

As far as powers are concerned, Vampire: The Mascarade (the only one I have experience with) is a low-tier superhero game with each PC having his own power. As far as the stories... Some part of the books say it's about playing brooding emo-goth characters who can't enjoy life and cling to the remna...

I can't help you there, I think I screwed up my build. My allies could manage just fine but my character was having trouble surviving combat when on his own. I ended up killing the last boss by running around leaving mines behind me. Hopefully, I had a lot of mines in my inventory and he was dumb en...

To me the first is neither the fluff nor the rules. It's the concept of the game: what is this game about? What will we be playing? Both the fluff and the rules have to be aligned with this. Once you have this concept, you can start with rules or fluff, but most of the time one will feed the other. ...

I like crossovers, but they're good as one-off events or in situations where you don't care about the plot/universe. Generally speaking, a fictional universe is made to be consistent and tell a specific story/kind of story. Most of the time, you lose all this once you mix multiple fictional unverses...

You do it whenever you want to, they've got no way of knowing if you wake them up at the right time
More seriously, you've got stuff like water clocks or candle clocks. If you've got a campfire, you can use the time it takes for the logs in the fire to burn.

I've been exercising steadily for some time and clearly gaining muscle without getting additional mass. Since I'm quite skinny, I decided to eat more in order to get some mass. I don't want the muscles I'm working on to build up by draining the other muscles. I've switched my breakfast to something ...

I attempted an Exalted game once. After listening to someone trying to explain the game and looking at the books, I was a bit confused by the mix of mythology and anime, it felt like it was trying to mix different stuff that had things in common but didn't go quite that well together. Then I wondere...

For a one-shot, I usually start with a concept. It can be a scene I have in my head, an interesting twist, a plot hook I've read somewhere, a feeling I want to push to the players. Then I extrapolate from that and try to get an interesting adventure around this. Sometimes it works, sometimes it turn...
