      why milestone is better

    • @migueeeelet
      @migueeeelet 8 місяців тому

      @@enderfire3379 Milestone is only good if the GM can properly pace the game. Else you risk running the same level for too long, running "hard" levels too short (basically the ones that just granted players a lot of goodies and they need time to get used to them, and then they get overloaded with the next level), plus the possibility of side options such as stealthing, doing sidequests or whatever as incentives.
      XP in the end is like gold: A currency you trade for a benefeit. Some games literally make you spend XP, even. "Can I somehow get more gold so I can get through the dungeon easily? Can I do something to get me some extra loot out of the dungeon?"
      In the end it's all a balancing act, and it depends on your players, but unless you know what you're doing, it's best to err into XP than into milestone - you can play with XP to grant levels at specific points, but you can't tweak milestone for when players want to feel rewarded for a minor scene.
