Reposting.  Long story shorter, this seems like a really good start.  Dice rolls seem to happen when they should and to work right.  Narrative pretty good.  Some problems, some of which are probably more front-end and some more LLM; I don't know how fixable the latter might be.

In character creation I picked Heroic Realism and Elf Ranger; then in Stats my Core Attributes all started as 10s, as I'd expect for a human -- no adjustment for race (or profession, if that's a thing in GURPS).  The Narrative part is great but daunting; might be nice to have a few readymades for appearance and backstory as you have that one for world.  

In play there seems to be no notion of Equipment.  I had set up with my wealth as normal but I started with no gold, and the system couldn't say anything about what I was wearing -- where is my armor?  Got in a fight with two wolves; I said "Shoot the first wolf" and from somewhere I pulled out a bow and nocked an arrow.  Then we were close in so I asserted a sword and there it was.  How much other equipment could I assert into existence?

I did poorly  with the wolves, and it ended like this:


HP 0 and Combat: defeat make sense, but why the XP and how Revived?  No new clue was given and I asked "Where am I?"  I found myself in the same place with half my HP, still upright and still facing the wolves.  I ran away.

In my village (immediately burned down by Dark Forces) there was one useful character named Get.  I thought that was a funny name, but whatever.  Later though I looked at the NPC list, which showed this:

Somehow it's picking up verbs and designating them as NPCs -- which I guess includes Get even though I only used that word long before meeting her.  Also Sunken Fen and Whisperwood are places, and Elara was killed before I encountered her.  Bram is legit and the one not shown is a legitimate enemy.

The banner that says "For the best experience,open MyFable in a new tab" goes to a black page with a twirler and then says "Session not found".

All that said, this seems really promising!  Hope you can solve these things.

yes i work on it constantly there are issues with it for sure some easier to fix than others but unfortunately all cost money for me to do and im por lol so may take me a bit to actually fix everything i did just update so there are less random word npc’s but it still lets them in but at least not 60 at a time now, as for equipment yeh i definitely need to do something with that as there actually i think except maybe in one place in character creation where you can give yourself armor its in a drop down menu easy to miss and only in one or two of the systems i think gurps does have it, also as to the enemies they can be overpowered i have seen the ai is supposed to make enemies that are comparable to your character but i seems it needs some more work as it isnt doing as instructed, that or i broke something the last couple updates and didnt notice it, however you can remove the npc’s and factions if you click on them then select and delete for random words, oh and yeh right now you can basically ask the ai for most anything and it will give it to you as i havent put any real actuall restrictions on it yet i have to be very careful as to how i do that or it will become very difficult very quick so for the moment im opting for easy untill i have enough of a player base to tell me the direction they want to go in, thank you for your responses to me and i am more than happy to discuss with you in discord or wherever any ideas you have or direction you would like to see the game go in, a question for you i am looking at implementing some images and graphics basicly background scenes just to give a visual of where the character is at the time like a forest town etc, how important would this be to you?

oh also i wanted to say in character creation in the last page you can tell the system anything you want to have as far as armor freinds companions etc. but once in game you still have to tell the dm to make the equipment for you and give it to you, it will have no issue doing so, also will not necessarily have to mention your freinds as it will pick up on them pretty easy and use them but anything that has to be made like equipment and stuff has to be told to the dm same for gold just make sure its in the universe or other text boxes. Just so its made cannon and has to be enforced.

oops , hp 0 and combat,   Lol um yeh sorry its supposed to give a popup if you die and ask if you want to be revived then send you to a nearby safe area, that did work before the last huge updates to the vampire and manga systems, but when i did that for some reason some of the things in gurps, and possibly the dnd one got broken i thought i had caught them all but i guess not thank you for letting me know, definitely has to be fixed again.. thank you.

oh just an after thought the ai may be picking up a  little on a couple of us who try to play test, and usually are in very dark very dangerous type worlds, it shouldnt pick this up, but i cant say that it is not because of the parent ai, i dont know what the child ai’s “my game” are sending back to the parent, and then the parent making new child ai with that information could be a possibility i will have to look into. Something interesting to think about for sure and to investigate.

ok just fixed it to where all new characters start with leather armor and a sword, that should help for anyone getting into combat before actually makeing their own buying any etc, should make battle easier in first part of the game.

oh one thing, where are you seeing this?  The banner that says "For the best experience,open MyFable in a new tab" goes to a black page with a twirler and then says "Session not found".     I think i know what you are talking about if it is the little link thing above the player text box if so i have now made it unclickable, untill i can get the rewarded add things in, if it is something else could you show me a screenshot of it please? I greatly appreciate your feedback and thank you very much for it.
