Is there not a move like discern reality (dungeon world?)
Can Assessment work that way??
One thought on “Me again.”
Heya!
Assessment is used for deliberate analysis; the character must be actively examining, studying or otherwise gauging something to be able to make an assessment.
In Dungeon World terms, Assessment is somewhere between Discern Realities and Spout Lore.
However, I felt the “do I spot something hidden”/quick look around aspect of Discern Realities did not mesh well with the core game loop, especially as a Move. Instead, the Academic’s “Deduction” and the Commercial’s “Acumen” skills both grant Discern-Realities-esque abilities (without the need to roll).
