We've talked a little about Practice Mechanics in a previous Blog Post. But today I'm going into the Big problem with Practices. Yes I'm saying there is a problem with our Built from Scratch, pre-released System!
First I have to explain what the practices are supposed to do. Practices augment how your character interacts with the world and the Mechanics of said world. Not just to gain statistical bonuses but also to customize your character and gain valuable information that can flesh out a world. Example In the Practice Biological Systems(knowledge of an organism’s systems like: Respiratory, nervous etc) there's an augment called Isolate, it allows the character "to test/study a subject in an effort to isolate and identify which system(s) are or have been afflicted(effected)". The idea behind it was if your character encounters characters suffering or benefiting from the effects of drugs, poisons or diseases, they'd be able to identify and counter the effects. Saving lives or ruining highs.
