I mean, I don’t like WotC either, but the constant complaining about the same things ad nausem is tired. You aren’t critiquing in an interesting and thoughtful manner, you’re repeating talking points.

I make a point to not watch any YouTuber that engages in rage bait. I simply refuse to give them my time. I’d encourage you all to do the same. Also, Shadowdark is great.

I run OSE fairly often for new players, this looks to be extraordinarily helpful.

My impression of what Riggs wrote stays the same, a year and a half on.

So, has it been determined that yes, people care about the Cosmere rpg?

I’m just gonna get it out there, I do not like DS9. I see why others do. But I don’t need a Star Trek war story, and the whole show misses the “Wagon Train in space” je ne se quois that makes Trek so good imo. So for me: 1. Strange New Worlds 2. TOS 3. Lower Decks 4. TNG 5. Voyager At the...

I played an absolutely terrible 5e game at Gen Con this past week, and I’m thinking I’m done for good now. I played a GREAT game of Dragonbane. I’ll happily make that switch.

Seems popular at Gen Con. I just don’t think it’s cool to be a hater against something you don’t know much about.

eh, me and my wife enjoyed it. Good dumb fun. It’s good to not take yourself so seriously all the time.

Yea I don’t know. I don’t want child rape games on platforms my children can easily access. I don’t feel bad saying that, and if cutting out payment services is the only real way to force companies whose primary purpose is the ever increasing accumulation of money, then so be it. No real amount...

The amount of what are clearly rape and “child porn disguised as anime girls” on Steam is astounding. I’m not sure I want to defend them, or attack policies to deplatform them.

The idea that just because WotC’s 5e is the billion dollar corporation backed market tested gorilla in the room DOES NOT mean that underlying design trends and game dynamics aren’t shifting and evolving. Read that again. And then tell me that Shadowdark, OSE, DCC, and borgs don’t matter.

I don’t care about your interest, but it’s kinda silly to claim that Pirate Borg et al aren’t easier to GM. Simply in regard to time spent to prep for a game, there’s an objective difference between an OSE or a borg compared to a 5e based game.

As long as we can all agree that OSE and Shadowdark are simultaneously peak alpha.

that’s cool, though it drives it home for me that the system, not the setting, is what makes Pirate Borg interesting to me. The meta plot, in my opinion, makes the story telling too constrictive.

Just read it, well designed, meta plot is dumb and I won’t be using it. Looks fun to run and play.

Decided to see what people could possible be talking about on page 1794, and yes, it is as silly as I thought.

Very much looking forward to season 3!

Dude, you called half elves “half breeds”, I told you how disgustingly insulting that was to mixed race people like myself, and you just went back to talking about mechanics. This isn’t about mechanics anymore. It’s about how you won’t acknowledge how the language you choose to employ around...

What you don’t seem to realize is that to some of us mixed people, even if they weren’t specifically labeled “biracial”, that’s how we interpreted them as. We aren’t “hybrids”. We aren’t “half breeds”. Pet peeves don’t discount who we identify with.
