    D&D General Why Enworld should liberate D&D from Hasbro

    I agree with your point here, but I would ask you to make it without parroting extremely offensive, bigoted talking points. I come to this little corner of the internet to avoid seeing phrases like "delusional perverts"

    Yep. The sniper build wasn't nearly as fun in ME2 and 3 as it was in 1, what with the very game-y level design of the newer games, so getting to say "you can't hurt me now, and now I'm immediately right in your face, and now I'm shooting you in the face with my shotgun" just felt nicer in general.

    D&D General Why Enworld should liberate D&D from Hasbro

    From the OP? It really doesn't seem like it. But a few folks brought up that specific piece of artwork while agreeing with the OP's take or otherwise diminishing WotC's claims over D&D, and for those folks, yes, that does seem to be at least partially what it's actually about.

    Seeing the words "3e" and "retroclone" in direct proximity with each other is aging me ten years at a time

    D&D General Why Enworld should liberate D&D from Hasbro

    And, by the by, if this is what people are hoping for ENWorld, of all institutions, to liberate D&D from, I've got some pretty bad news for you.

    Do you "roleplay" in non-TTRPG Games?

    Also, any game of Munchkin Classic that doesn't devolve into a Elven Mafia extorting literally everybody else at the table is a game of Munchkin Classic where people aren't playing to win.

    D&D General Why Enworld should liberate D&D from Hasbro

    I mean, BG3 does have a hag that does eat a child, but she's honestly played much more for laughs than for horror. You throw a potion at her to make her vomit up the kid. Like BG3 is such a goofy game with its tongue so firmly within its cheek that I'm not sure where this whole "BG3's...
