Your username makes me wonder if you're not a puffer fish. It would explain why no one's successfully eaten you yet.

You are not wrong, and uncaring logic supports your hypothesis strongly.

Ew.

littlebluespark , 5 months ago to rpg in What is your favorite reflavor/reskin of officially published RPG material?

Honestly, the "hate on d&d" train really became a thing after WotC bought TSR. Also, I completely agree with you: cross-fluidity of game systems was fun to distro hop, basically, for a change of pace/theme — though the recent boom of innovation is especially exciting! So many new concepts and styles of play, and even reimaginings of timeless classics like Planescape, et al. 🥰

Bye, Felicia.

You're the one spamming every forum with the same bs and then defend your myopism with allusions of experience? Ew.

I didn't realize an explanation was needed in the slightest.

Seriously. Any player with a smidge of experience would walk away from this table. Maybe, if their friendship predated the game, they'd offer some insight, but this DM sounds so far up their own ass, the truth might not reach.

FFS, you recognize that each of you has IRL obligations that make deep-diving a low priority and you still feel justified in full TPKing like a jackass? Maybe what would help everyone involved is taking some time off from your table and first stepping down from that mighty DM throne you've made for yourself.

You're playing together not against each other; the encounters aren't "yours", the monsters aren't "yours", and the rules aren't fucking written in stone for you to point at when defending your pride against the guilt of killing off your players' characters without any damn reason.

tl;dr: News flash. It's your poor choices that are killing your "friends", not the players' choices. Solution: stop being a dick of a DM.

Christ on a stick, you're spamming every rpg-related forum with this?

🤦🏼‍♂️

"It makes the game less fun" for you? Everyone else seems fine, but your lessened enjoyment is projected onto a player and you're asking this community to help find fault in their contribution, rather than recognize that the problem is your own? Furthermore, this false "choice" you described isn't helping anyone, as none of those are as inevitable as you allude.

Real talk: own your shit; don't point the finger at your players unless you prefer playing all by yourself. As the DM/GM, you have a responsibility to the table, and (on a much smaller scale), they to you — though the latter is more simple etiquette than anything.

At the end of the day, the choice is yours: are you able to DM without being an adversarial dick? Or, do you need to do the others a favor and play by yourself so they can enjoy the game in their perfectly reasonable ways?

Her makeup and outfits are well-applied, but most anyone with a shred of self-respect would chew their arm off if they woke up next to her naked Picasso after a bender.

That's not the point at all, especially since I was referring to Jr. It's been murderous fucking assclowns for decades, citizen. Generations, even. (Ah, Carter. Sweet ol' Jimmy.)

There's a fucking idiot born every few seconds, and at the same pace there's a (so far) boundless font of working-class hopium cash willing to throw their pension in the proverbial fountain for the promise of fucking over anyone who isn't them. 🤦🏼‍♂️
