Hello everyone! I’ve been part of the Shield Wall for a long time, but have never posted anything in the forums or before the forums haha. This is my first post and what a big one it is (for me at least)!
First, I have a deep love for video games, and the Mass Effect series is one of my favorite ones of all time (yes, including Andromeda lol). Second, I also love ICRPG and will like to thank a friend of mine (@Axiomaric) who convinced me to do this. Lastly, I had been trying to create a setting based on video games for a while (have a couple I’m working on) but this one is actually my first playable one. I want to introduce Mass Effect: ICRPG Hack, as it’s ready to be playtested (I think haha). All I know is that I just need to stop writing, or fixing things, and just play the game already.
For that reason, I’m opening the floor for 4 players, both new and experienced, to try this out with me. It’s going to be something relatively short, just a combat encounter to test the waters of the classes and bioforms, character creation and stuff like that. It will be through Roll20 and once I have the players I’ll DM them the link to the game. Thank you in advance!
If you’re willing to help but can’t play, please look at it, read it and let me know what you think. What’s present is all I’ve been able to do with just Google Docs. I know it’s not much, but I’m a bit proud of it. If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to ask. I might take a bit to answer but promise I’ll get to it. All constructive feedback is welcome and will be considered. Thank you again!
UPDATE: Another playtest session this coming 9 May (see above for your own time and date)!This one is a bit different. In the previous one, the players had never played the Mass Effect video games, but were veterans at ICRPG, which worked out pretty well. Now, I’m looking for feedback on the other side of the coin. Basically, I’m looking for players that have played at least one of the Mass Effect games before, but not necessarily have played ICRPG before. This way, I can test the new mechanics to see if it portrays well the video game aspects I"m trying to present with this game.
UPDATE TLDR: Looking for players that have played the Mass Effect video games to try out some new mechanics.
