re: roles and their balance in the game - Judging from thread reaction and knowledge of my own role, I'm betting that this assessment is probably the most correct one:
Tiki the Tralalala wrote:Guessing this means we all likely have 1 role power, potentially with a qualifier separately attached. Hmm, I wonder what this means for my Demon.
I'll update the master post in a bit with all these hot details that have come out throughout this discussion, but I do wonder whether or not Kiyoko's proposed scenario with the demon is accurate...
For what it's worth, thinking about it now, assuming that the vast majority of players in this game have a single role power, give or take x and y qualifiers on this role power, then if the demon's ability to block Tiki's ability is counted as some kind of active ability on its own, d...oesn't it mean that if Tiki dies this player becomes entirely vanilla
And that on its own feels a little weird, because you have a role whose entire ability is centered around Tiki's. I feel like there has to be more than meets the eye here idk, like something along the lines of Kiyoko's theory where demon has some role power that inadvertently blocks Tiki's or something
I'm not ruling it out because I've played in games before where a single player's role was essentially centered around another player's role (... most commonly neutrals, but also town), but it just feels a little weird to me...
inb4 i get burned like i did in crossroads when trying to make assumptions about role balance or abilities in the greater scope of the game tho
