Success Mode Philosophies

There are many methods to creating a player with success mode. They generally fall into four basic categories: Role-play, Save/Reload, Training buff, and mixed (which encompasses all three).

Role playing

This mode is the most like real-life. You take the dice rolls and fate cards as they are and play it through once. Reloads for sake of avoiding injury or a bad gamble are not allowed in this mode. This will give you a more "realistic" player, but will almost never (unless you have some really insane luck) be able to max out the player like the remaining methods.

Reload and Reshuffle

Reloading a previous save allows the player to take another attempt at practice without injury, avoiding/getting a random event, or gambling for stats/ablities. The game does not keep track or restrict the number of times you can reload the game, and thus you can reload until you are successful. This the most successful and time-consuming method. The best players are made this way. It ensures that more abilities and stats will be gained (gambling with lower success rates), injury will be avoided, and favorable outcomes will be gotten (Challenging at job, and getting Gambler's Ring from Surprise Bag). Important random events will also be pursued, such as Dr. Goodjob and Dad. If you wish to make a super-player, or one better than you usually do, this is the way to go.

Training Only (No Roleplay)

This method solely relies on personal training and hyper recovery in order to gain experience for stats and abilities. This does not, however, avoid role playing altogether (fixing bad outcomes from random events) but simply prefers training to, for example, dating for the sake of dating.

Balanced

This method uses a combination of all the other philosophies.
