D20 cultural saturation on display again. While they acknowledge the values are just constants they don’t show any examples beyond the d&d/d20. So many rpg tools exist that only support d&d to the point where any non d20 system requires layers of hacks and obfuscation.

If you are building tools for RPG games, i implore you. Think beyond d&d/d20 games.

    Getting really tired of this criticism - the example is a start on encoding Dungeon World/Powered by the Apocalypse rules, not D&D.

      Would be great to see examples for RPGs that don't use classes or equipment, given how similar the rules structure is (by design) between dungeon world and D&D.

      Anything to do with features or abilities would be great too.
