On The Shoulders Of Dwarves

### What do we mean (1:20) In D&D, there’s nothing wrong with a barbarian that uses reckless attack. But you can also be a barbarian that uses Bring in the Hurt. In Savage Worlds, there’s nothing wrong with a fighter having a Fighting d8 and Combat Reflexes. But you can also have Fencing d8, and Quick on His Feet. ### Inside the mechanics and outside the mechanics (8:10) Some gaming mechanics allow you to do a lot of personalisation, taking the appropriate feats and skills etc. Some don’t or are not as flexible. In Pathfinder, having your fighter also be an awesome tailor takes away skill points that might make your character less effective in his role. And so you might opt to perform some personalisation outside the system by using specific colours, phrases etc . Complete reinterpretation of the fluff attached to the mechanics - possible, but not necessary. A barbarian that enters Zen Mode instead or rage.
