Bortasz Posted August 17, 2014 Posted August 17, 2014 Your mind is software. Program it.Your body is a shell. Change it.Death is a disease. Cure it.Extinction is approaching. Fight it. Hello. I just want to introduce you one very interesting Tabletop Role Play Game. It's name is Eclipse Phase. Eclipse Phase tells a story about Humanity that cure Death. Humans are software that can be loaded to different shells. Death is inconvenience ad worst. Since always you can be revive by simple uploading back up copy of you to the next shell.But what have most interesting for this community is part they call New Economy. It is base on Reputation, Opinion, and favours. If you are in new Economy you can life trade with other peoples, and never touch money. By simple doing a favour to one person, he post his opinion about you to the net. Than you go to another person and ask him a favour. He read you opinion and decide to help you. You both write opinion after job.Some time past and you opinion growth. More people are asking for favours from you, but add the same time more people are willing to do favours for you. After some point you doing favours for one type of people, and take favour for another. There may be no connection between people that ask for you favours, and people you ask for favours. But since all of you are connected by net of connection based on Reputation Opinion and favours you all benefit by it. I just want warn you that Eclipse Phase is a pen & paper roleplaying game of post-apocalyptic transhuman conspiracy and horror. To quote the makers. So there is also the Horror aspect. The game is not only about this new economy. But I think that this is interesting approach to economy. So I spread it.Thank you for moment of you time. http://eclipsephase.com/ The page of authors. http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/TabletopGame/EclipsePhase?from=Main.EclipsePhase Page from TV TROPES about Eclipse Phase.
