Took out the Criticism section: it cited no sources, and was highly opinionated.

Fan Translation[edit]

There seems to be a few recent edits from someone pulling information from the fan translation of the game, instead of official sources. While the article did need to be proofread and updated, I'm not sure adding unofficial terms and linking to unofficial translations is really the way to go about it. 2603:7081:4F01:26F3:E8DB:5C67:D222:3A60 (talk) 12:55, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

> The game uses only two 6-sided dice, as other polyhedral dice aren't common in Japan.[edit]

The D20 system was invented in the year 2000 with DnD 3e. Sword World RPG is from 1989. I am pretty sure, that the lack of polyhedral dice are not the reason for two D6.

2D6 provide 36 combinations of which 16 are 6-8 and 24/36 are 5-9 and also the reason games like Catan decided to use 2D6 as it increases the strategy a lot and reducing the luck factor. 2/3 of the time you throw 5-9 and almost 1/2 of the time, you throw 6, 7 or 8. That makes improving your character feel more rewarding and makes the overall feel of the game more like an RPG Japanese have been used to by Video Games. 121.112.213.65 (talk) 15:21, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
