Re: [Basic] Disadvantage of the week: Bad Sight, Blindness and Night Blindness
No, but it seems very heavy-handed to buy -X Perception and +X to every sense except one - especially when three out of four Acute Senses add up to six points per level, buying down Perception gets me five per, so my hypothetical character with
IQ 12 [40] Per 7 [-25] Acute Hearing 5 [10] Acute Taste/Smell 5 [10] Acute Touch 5 [10] but not Acute Vision - i.e. the equivalent of a straight IQ-and-Per 12 character, but poor in Vision and generic Per rolls - has ended up costing more than that IQ-and-Per 12 character. It's clear that GURPS doesn't want me to be able to penalise a single sense except with these big disads, or quirks, nothing in between. Thanks to those who suggested why.
