Here it is, folks, Pond's Patented Pants-wetting Playable Phantasm Psimulation! (Gimme a break, I was doing pretty well up 'til that last word.) Just follow this link here for a summary. pastebin.com/MkVLuSQU I just noticed that this version didn't include the bit about possession. I updated it at a later point to include a thought or two about it, since I replayed the Chzo mythos games and rewatched some of the Grudge films and there is a certain amount of possession in them that makes it look like it would gel well enough. I guess it'd probably be easier to possess people with low sanity, maybe certain actions could be added to restore sanity as well that come with a delay like with sinks, or a move that sacrifices a small amount of health for a small amount of sanity? Pricking your hand with your weapon to keep you focused? Back on the subject of possession, it would probably sap the target's stamina (to simulate their attempts to fight the spirit off) and then it would end after the bar had drained, since the spirit can't do much with an exhausted body and leaves it.

This post voices agreement, and not just because Pond is secretly my alt or nothing. Definitely no.

Seems legit. Short and sweet, just how I like it. We'll see how it goes.

I have no idea who you're asking that, or even what you're really asking. Care to expand a little?

I don't really like this version of Ghost Mode, honestly... I feel like it's a little too cliche. =/
Plus a face popping up on someone's screen could cause actual health problems. Not very smart to have.

... a face popping up on someone's screen could cause actual health problems. Not very smart to have. I can see where you're coming from with that, and I was reconsidering it as well, but to respond to your other complaint, I don't think that containing a cliche or two is necessarily a bad thing. The problem, as I saw it, with PH's Ghost Mode was the fact that the Ghost was often very limited in their options, especially if the Medium refused to co-operate, and the idea kinda forced the two together, often against their will, which was especially awkward if one happened to be not quite as good at RPing as the other. That and the fact that it basically just felt like Normal mode except one kid didn't get to play with all the cool kids. EDIT: I also just thought of a new item! Red tape: If you seal a door with it, then the ghost cannot enter, however, you can't either.

Yeah. I see a few more issues with the Game Mode now that you bring them up. XD I made a post about my own adapted version of Ghost Mode. It also has a few flaws, but it seems playable and fun to me, at least.

I would love to RP fighting the ghost. It sounds so epic.
Though this would not be fun if there were too many exorcism slips. Also can the ghost pick up items? That would suck.
I really like the idea.

I loved the pyrce high original suggestion but hated how it didn't go fully through, the ghost was always like a god damn imaginary friend who didn't do anything but whine and whine and etc. Hopefully they add the possession bit that would be sweet! :3
