I have a question: when it says a player can spend a string on another pc and offer them an experience point to do what you want, where does that experience point come from?
Does a player have to give up an experience point, or does that experience point just go to the other player (without being taken from the player) if they agree?
My guess is that it isn’t taken from the pc using the string, but it occurs to me that i may have this wrong
It doesn’t come from anywhere, it’s created.
I can confirm with Benjamin Davis. Experience in pbta games is generally awarded for pushing the story in specific ways. When you spend a string in this way you’re saying ‘wouldn’t it be interesting if you did ____‘. If they agree the game rewards them.
Ben and David have it.
Thanks to all who commented. That clears it up.
