Davvy's Guide to Starfinder

There are stars everywhere. You don't need a book to find them.

One thing about Starfinder I truly appreciate: meet ups.

How many games of fantasy where everyone meets up in a tavern/pub? Most of them.

Places I've had meetings in Starfinder:

- Strip club
- Parking lot of space Walmart at three in the morning
- On the internet during a scheduled Zoom call
- Waiting area of a checkpoint where our respective transports were getting inspected
- Various apartments
- Space Bar Mitzvah

One thing great about Starfinder, race templates aren't super dense, so it's actually really easy to adapt exotic races as a player character. Many aliens, if they have any form of civilization or intelligence, also have player options on their stat blocks, even. Since it's very technology-driven, your innate racial powers won't surpass your class and equipment, even they would in a more medieval RPG.
They have stat blocks to play a floating brain, what's basically a tentacle monster, a dragonkin, or even a giant crystalline slug. And it makes it look pretty simple to homebrew aliens to play as too.

Not gonna lie, emma's background jokes give me life.

Starfinder was my first post-5e ttrpg. Totally agree with the Chappster here. Great system, love the universe it’s set in and definitely worth a slot in the rotation

Please do more of Starfinder. For the brief time that I played it it was great. I was a Mechanic, stuck on a prison/mining moon. My friends and I started a jailbreak, caused havoc and got loose. The best part (for me) was that the ships to gtfo were all mechanically and digitally locked but, being a big brain Mechanic, I hacked the ship and manually unlocked the door and kick started the engine. Then we were free.
Good times.

My group is getting ready for our first Starfinder game and as a DM the massive shift in setting was actually a huge spark for creativity.

Seeing rimshot written is way funnier than actually hearing one

Hey, good video. Loved the editing. Two rules corrections, if I may:

- Spending Resolve to restore Stamina is meant to be done out of combat over a 10 minute rest.
- Character creation is VERY much balanced around point buy for ability scores, with rolling being an optional roll for legacy's sake.

Thanks for showing SF some love!

2:50 Agents of SHIELD reference? Hell yeah brother!

[jordandinelt]

Thank u for pushing enough people to this game to get something going on roll20

I REALLY. Want this game to be main stream.

Putting a pathfinder full caster in starfinder. It would be kind of like being the caster servant from the fate series. Less powerful of course but I like the idea of being a bearer of lost knowledge.

You might want to check out the d20 Star Wars game, which is where Piazo lifted the HP/Stamina rules from.

What about a Davvy's guide to setting?
Everyone points out DnD is fantasy Europe but the rules and bestiary allows for an amazingly diverse setting.

Right now I'm DMing a Pirates of the Caribbean themed game. And I didn't even have to make everyone multi class into Swashbuckler Rogue.

It'd be cool if you did Mutants and Masterminds next,

More Starfinder Videos Please!! I'm not gonna have much luck convincing my D&D group to transition to Starfinder but I soooo want to.

[DStrormer]

Never realized Starfinder was so different from base Pathfinder 1e. Gonna have to check that out.

Also, continuing to beg you to cover Green Ronin's AGE system in one of these. It really deserves more love, whether you're playing Dragon AGE or one of the various other options.

4:26 “the soldier has gun and is big” almost spit water out my nose. 😂

[KlausWonderstrap]

THANK YOU FOR THIS!!
Starfinder doesn't get nearly as much love as it should!

[yumnits]

Hopefully this will lead to new Starfinder players on Roll20 lol

[qdaniele]

To be fair, even WH40K started out as something along that line 😁
"Wait... What if we took our fantasy game world and moved it thousands of years into the future?"
"Cool... I bet our egiptian themed undeads would look sick as creepy ancient robots..."
"...hear this out: Orcs and goblins sprout form the ground of infected planets like mushrooms..."
