Realistically, how likely is religion to still exist in any influential or even recognizable capacity in far-future settings?
>>92623131>most people still retain spiritual beliefs>>92623941>replaced by other religionsSo, that's the thing:What do we mean by "religion"?If religion is the belief that there's something after death and perhaps a higher purpose for the origin of the universe, then yeah, that stuff is probably here to stay.If religion is giving a sacred significance to a set of values, then , yeah, the Human Rights, the belief in democracy and in the equality of human beings is, in a sense, a modern religion. Certainly, in a far future, similar sacred beliefs in other common values will appear.If religion is a set of rituals (burial ceremonies, Christmas celebrations...), then yeah, certainly in the far future people will have specific habits for key moments of their lives and the year.If religion is the belief in a divine presence that should guide your actions, or even having all of this fitting together, though, like Christianity and Islam used to do?Eh... Seems unlikely, assuming mankind keeps going on its industrial modern path.But even *that* is pretty uncertain.
>>92629069PS: There are other examples of the forms religion can take, though.In Asia, you go to Buddhist, or Shinto temples for specific rituals (say... burial), or to buy amulets or give offerings, for good luck.But for most people it's not something which has much bearing on their lives or their values.For example: in some countries it's perfectly acceptable to go perform a ritual in a temple of one religion, then another in a temple of a different one.It's imaginable to have a future religion that's all about rituals, but no deep belief.
>>92629069>What do we mean by "religion"?Other modern example in another direction would be Iceland.Technically Christian, but what has actual weight on some decision is superstition in Fae, which a bunch of construction projects being altered/cancelled because it would impact the local Fae.
>>92616251>we empirically verified that religion is one of the very few things that the establishment is unwilling regulate outrightYeah and the majority of people who died were dumbfuck religious zealots that thought their faith would protect them from a literal virus.
>>92620527>willfully ignores how the biggest parts of those faiths were intentionally coopted by Christianity, the official organized religion of the Empire for the areas where they formerly existedWhy would my kid keep calling it Saturnalia when all his friends are calling it Christmas? Why would I care so long as I can still celebrate it?
>When a DM throws an overleveled monster at the party
>>92625335Literally not even once.Marcille has only even shown attraction to males, the elf prince Marcille's succubus turned into was confirmed to be a male character from that trashy romance series Marcille loves so much.If you had paid attention you'd know why cleanliness is so important to magic users (hence the bath scene).
>>92613880Why does the secondary party always get wiped?
>>92629183In this case it's because they were eating nothing but rice and preserved fish.
I recall a scene where they're all watching Marcille's romance novel projected from her dreams with magic somehow, but it's not on the website I'm using to re-read the manga. Is that an extra or did I somehow dream an imaginary chapter?
>>92629225It's an extra chapter for Nightmares.

...GW wouldnt get rid of generic Terminators for World Eaters once they get their own unique termy datasheets right? God thats such an awful thought I have to consider.
Why is it so difficult for GW to just release upgrade sprues for Chaos Marines?

would it be possible to run mono-harlequins but with some wraith units? would it be any good do you think?asking for a friend

>>92629054cry harder weeb, monks are garbage
>>92628992>greater restoration won't cut itWhat's the basis for this? I would say significant scarring is more comparable to a permanent reduction in ability score than to a lost limb or appendage.
>>92629104>What's the basis for this?The spell doesn't say it does.>You can reduce the target's exhaustion level by one, or end one of the following effects on the target:>One effect that charmed or petrified the target>One curse, including the target's attunement to a cursed magic item>Any reduction to one of the target's ability scores>One effect reducing the target's hit point maximumWhereas regenerate restores lost limbs, it's a safe bet that it restores any destroyed flesh as well.
>>92629104Greater restore is very specific about what it does. it lists out exactly what its capable of.
>>92629190Why would you expect to find mechanics for removing scarring in a game where scarring isn't a mechanic?>>92629172>Whereas regenerate restores lost limbs, it's a safe bet that it restores any destroyed flesh as well.Yes, I agree, regenerate should be able to restore scarred flash, that's reasonable. I'm asking what you reasoning is for Greater Restoration not being able to do this. "The spell doesn't say it does" isn't going to cut it when regenerate doesn't say that it does either. You're making a logical inference that something capable of regrowing limbs is also capable of removing scars. I'm making a similar inference--that something capable of removing permanent reductions to ability scores is capable of removing scars.

>>92629205
>>92629163I don’t think 99% of the people here are fine, truth be told. I think almost everyone here needs a swift punch to the face, even if the reality check will fall upon deaf ears. This pressure cooker creates better art, though. There isn’t a single fucking author of note that’s come through here that isn’t demonstrating obvious instability. Perhaps they can mask it and can operate fine in society, but here, among peers? We see you. Broken, fucking retarded, but beautifully creative. Sifting through mounds of shit to find the few specks of gold that keep your art coming and make it better. The worst of us and the best of us.

I got a promo pot of fanatic army painter stuff, I can't find anything on the bottle saying it but do they still have that retarded slug of medium in the nozzle you have to remove?
Attempting chaos Godzilla. Considering it's my first try, I think the prototype bloodletter is going pretty well. Nuln oil + Celestra Grey gave it a nice rocky effect, but I think it's a little too bright now. Any suggestions? I was thinking a thin coat of Eshin Grey
>>92627844Yeah, I'm looking forward to that one. I thought I'd identified him as a Barghest handler from Grenadier's Shadowrun range (picrel from the Lost Minis Wiki) but the pose and some other details are wrong. The Boushh figurine was a nice find because I always thought that it was a cool outfit and I actually played a Ubese in a fondly remembered Star Wars game years ago. I also have no idea what the black figure with a cloak started his life as but he's going to be a Sov-Block judge from now on. There's some really arcane stuff in here; the centaur archer in the first pic and twins in the bottom are actually from Eisenwerk as part of their Zodiac Adventures series.

>>92626271I don't disagree. I just want to point out that during the mid-2000s when the OSR and retroclone movement started, TSR core, splats, and adventures were available without putting on your pirate hat.At the time, there was nothing to grapple with: B/X and AD&D were long out of print: so Labyrinth Lord and OSRIC made it so people could get into TSR D&D with something currently in print.>>92626723I like 2e as cleaned up AD&D1e. The first printing (guy on horse) is gorgeous. It's very compatible with B4 or N1 and so on. The tension comes from most of 2e's adventures being distinctly FOE; and the splatbook creep into a proto-3e.

>>92628865Its more the difference between one group thinking its a slow insidious takeout meant to demoralize and displace them and one thinking the other group would crush them without a second thought, which presents a change in optics even if it is just Us vs them at the end of the day.And the Internet and the war of perception within does matter these days, especially to zoomers who had their sense of social interaction shattered by the lock downs, and to media companies who look to twitter for feedback and community gauging.

I think (campaigns about) conflicts between fantasy races are most interesting when all of them are equally capable of good and evil
>>92618748Individuals with greater capacity for evil who do good are more compelling.
>>92628108No, that's a normal person.
>>92628375Normal people don't do good.
Monolithic races are lame most of the time. That's why each race In my fantasy setting is divided into tribes and nations with different connections. Some lizardfolks are on peaceful terms with humans and trade with them, others are openly hostile towards them and vice-versa.Also I hate the trope where an alien species can only have one type of personality and philosophy.
>>92625151I think more like the worst of ELVEN kind of Toril AT THE MOMENT because the wild elves who kill most humans or mindwipe them have disappeared from 5e>hell, I remember reading the Drizzt series chronologically and I could have sworn that the little girl from the very beginning saved by Drizzt was supposed to be a WILD elf but somehow became a high elf at some point, and I'm not sure if I've become crazy or if they retcon'd thatand then there are the drow, so really sun elves are the worst kind of elf on the SURFACE and we still have all those monster races and I can't imagine an elf being worse than an orc, well, okay maybe the drow, because they have the intelligence to keep you alive while they torture you for fun

Previous thread: >>92510611GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by those who pay attention to file extensions.Never post direct links to the archive anywhere.If you're wondering where to start:The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.Thread Question: What is your favourite advantage and why?
HEY GUYS WANNA PLAY GURPS?Uh maybe what kind of setting is itDOESN'T MATTER, ALL GURPS GAMES PLAY THE SAMEOh you're right, sure.
>>92626698What do all GURPS games play like?
>>92626772don't know. there is like 20 different rule sets for whatever you like.
>>92626698This is just the consequence of GMs allowing players being lazy and never learn the rules, so they assume every system begins and ends at dice rolling because that's the only thing they are ever asked to do.
>>92626698If you mean that once in place gurps becomes transparent that's a fucking great thing. When i play a game i don't want to wrestle with the rules but i want the rules to fit perfectly what i want to do without thinking about them beforehand.
