    I don't get the arguments for bioessentialism

    I think pointy eared human(or guy made of lava) syndrome is really no issue. If playing up the inhumanity is so important to a player then it's up to their prerogative to do so, I see no issue if someone takes humans as their race and makes them actually some hyperadaptive bug race.

    I'm perfectly fine if a dogguy, an Elf, and giants to all be called humans yes. Also here's my argument; Pointy ears are pretty aesthetically appealing in my eyes

    Only if the only classes are Race IMO.

    D&D General I finally like non-Tolkien species for PCs

    In my opinion that's perfectly fine and why you should let them be non-tolkiens, if they can't make playing a living tree/crowman/etc/etc differnet than human than just treat them as one with feathers/branches/etc/etc.

    Worlds of Design: In the Shadow of Tolkien

    I think the other 'Big Influence' in FRP or fantasy in general has to be Warcraft. You can blame that game for giving us recurrent playable Orc discourse.

    D&D 5E (2024) No way to end Rage on your turn with 2024 rules?

    Look if the only people that can make good decisions are the ones with hig wis/int, that'd be a massive blow to roleplaying. Also playing the Barbarian as if they're just a dumb brick and just getting yourself surrounded is gonna get them killed so what's the point?

    How Fantastical Do You Like Your Fantasy World?

    If you make me go through a Ye Olde Mediaval village to make me go wow against a Dragon or a Skeleton... I don't think that works though.

    How Fantastical Do You Like Your Fantasy World?

    Give me the weird naughty word immediately please. Don't bother me with 'realistic' when that's just codeword for boring. Horses are now huge bugs? Yeah sure, Pop concerts in Faux-medieval germany? No big deal, The average professional soldier/Man-at-arms can shoot windblades? sign me up. Sure people...

    What Mundane Details Are Important In Your Fantastical Game/World?

    It's not an old tradition, but now they have the greatest martial artists turn people into giblets as a form of execution.

    What Mundane Details Are Important In Your Fantastical Game/World?

    The food that people eat Religious/general beliefs, their banal ideologies and their values. The stories that they tell Sayings and slangs are always fun I'm a big fan of hats/gimmicks for factions/civilizations, novel executions matter a lot to me more than believability.

    D&D General Which edition handled alignment best?

    I personally hope that it becomes mmore accurate and I can put Fish Nuggets in my character sheet and everyone laughs since all of them understands how worthless and useless alignment is.

    D&D General Which edition handled alignment best?

    No. Anything the player does should only change the alignment if they want it too. Steal a candy from a baby, immediate chaotic evil or become lawful good if they want it to. Or nothing
