    Is the second post included in the screenshot for some reason I'm not getting?

      Most times I see "Great D&D ideas" posts are scenarios better suited for any game that's not D&D

      This would be great in a more free-form, narrative TTRPG

        I think it's a reference to someone entrenched in the FF universe, probably a fan of D&D campaigns, who is being tongue-in-cheek AT'd

          This is all expected in the "Powered by the Apocalypse" (PTBA) system and it's spin offs.

            There are a few TTRPGs that let you build a magic system for yourself. The most developed one is called Ars Magica. I recently discovered a newer game called Tattered Magicks that also lets you craft magic for your spellcaster.

            D&D is fun, but it's not the only rpg out there

                This sounds kinda like Mage: The Ascension.

                  Hell, there's even Kids On Broomsticks, if you're looking for some Calvinball Lite shenanigans.

                    Man, I need to play this again at some point

                    Only round I had the chance of playing was a very short round 15 or so years ago at a convention, where I played a character that basically scripted reality around him with code

                        Man I forgot all about Dungeon World. I think I backed a kickstarter they did a long time ago. Never got around to playing it tho. I'll have to dig it out and see if my game group is interested.

                          I spend a Fabula point - do we all agree that red things have resistance against Fire element?

                            Would work pretty well in Fabula Ultima

                              I kinda like this ribbon idea. It's like flag football but the flag prevents you from being instantly fireballed to the face.

                                  I feel like people use "D&D" like "Google"
                                  when people say "D&D idea" they generally mean "any TTRPG idea"
                                  and when people say "Google It" they mean "look it up"

                                      Quick way to end up with Calvin-ball magic. "Oh, but the red ribbon disintegrates if I toot my wooden whistle, making it doubly weak to fire!"

                                        My guess would be that they are referring to "Mage: The Ascension". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mage:_The_Ascension

                                          I feel the same, but tell myself that for many people "DnD" is a stand-in for any sort of imagination game. Like people say "kleenex" for tissue or "xerox" for copy.

                                          I agree with you, but find it absolutely hilarious that the two examples you gave are the ones I almost never hear people around me using.
