Hello all, this is my first post on the Forge. From reading Ron's article, seems like he's got a good bead on the industry. I had some ideas for a post-apocalyptic rpg, similar to the Fallout PC Game. I even had a couple of ideas for a mechanic, I thought that the System Mechanic would be the best place to start developing the game, but after reading that article, I'm not so sure. It was both intriguing, and a bit confusing for me as well. From his article I came to the conclusion that I am in the Simulationism mode of thought, and I like the ideas presented in that mode.

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone here has some tips for a newbie designer.

Thanks,

LordCarter

Well, I'll start it.

Here's the standard 1st question:

What do you want to see the characters do in this world you're creating?

[edit: Whoops, didn't see your edit. Never mind. I'll see what's developing over RPG theory.]
