Make Gamer Skill Meaningful

[Shikarego]

So I like the gamer skill a lot. It's a great meme.
Like the other skills you gotta put real time into it for it to be of any weight.
Unlike the other skills, there isn't any real impact on the station or the round. At best, you have an RPer getting to make some jokes about being a Legendary Gamer. Which is fun, don't get me wrong, but not THAT fun.

My intuition is to say that arcade rewards should have some sort of usage. I'm mainly talking about the tidal wave of useless meme toys that you get on your way to Legendary status. Maybe they could sell to centcom for some amount? Maybe be recyclable for materials?

Or maybe a gamer could have a mood buff aura? "In the presence of a Legendary Gamer"? Or debuff! Just something.

Someone is making skillcapes for skills if I recall correctly. Legendary gamer skill also makes you able to win the combat arcade game by just attacking.

Gamer skill is a meme silly skill, it really shouldnt be more than a fun gimmick.

this is also a viable strat (if you consider 30 minutes of arcade games during your traitor round viable)

only reason arcade machines exist is to give prisoners something to do in between overdosing on pruno

Here is the stat block I propose for Toy Katanas:

(One-Handed Exotic Weapon)
1d12 Damage
19-20 x4 Crit
+2 to hit and damage
Counts as Masterwork

(Two-Handed Exotic Weapon)
2d10 Damage
17-20 x4 Crit
+5 to hit and damage
Counts as Masterwork
