Replace the face of the franchise and the only person who somewhat understands rpgs with a new DM despised even by your own groveling fans.

Why would he do this? Does he really have that much faith in The Emperor's New Clothes?

There are differing opinions on Reddit.

>Aabria is an elite DM. (self.Dimension20)
>submitted 6 months ago by AkimboMajestic
>I remember when Aabria did ExU there was so much shit talking on reddit about her style/tone etc, and again when she did aCoFaF. But she’s fucking great and any white boy who says otherwise is just a jealous racist.
>Down to the facial expressions she pulls, even, there’s so much colour to her descriptions and the little snap decisions she makes to subtly guide the story are a masterwork.


>EXU Spoilers - Aabria's DM style quirks that irked me to the point of dislike.
>submitted 2 years ago by inpersonage2
>The way she used saves for just about everything felt so contrived and half the time they didn't matter. She floated around with all these ideas, plot hooks, and concepts but if things didn't flow the way she liked she would bend things to it in ways that felt weird or just off. Combats with her felt so confused, as if she herself barely understood the game she was playing in the moment.
>The biggest issue however is the way she portrayed gods and certain NPCs. She would introduce or describe certain NPCs one way and then abandon that characters portrayal for Generic Sassy Character or Generic Animated Personality. And the gods that were present, they fell into this same idea but it's worse because they were supposed to mean something. In particular I mean The Spider Queen. She would be played up to be this sinister entity and then it took one stupid dwarf to make her lighten her tone and talk like some teacher you meet at a store that you haven't seen since high-school.

Aabria isn't a good DM. (self.TAZCirclejerk)

submitted 2 years ago by Sarisongsalt

I know there is a lot of genuine racism and sexism by people who critique her, but that's led to an environment where if you don't think she's the bestest gm the rpg world has ever seen people will automatically tune you out.

This isn't just an inbalance problem but imbalance was the straw that broke the camels back for me. For starters she pays NO attention to rolls. She wants an outcome and will completely ignore any dice roll that isn't the exact dice roll she wants.

She also disrespects the players choices on a consistent bases. Brennan says his character won't do sports, she does a time cut and suddenly he's playing sports. Ashley's character in CR EXU is chaotic neutral and has no regrets for killing a man who attacked the party first? Well keep constantly bringing up how GUILTY that character feels and even telling her the opinions of her own character despite her player saying she doesn't feel guilty and looking uncomfortable the whole time! These last two points make any game she DM'd feel very railroady.

Finally she disrespects the DM's who have made the worlds she's playing in. Be it Griffin McElroy or Matt Mercer, she's gotten facts wrong about campaigns and the worlds they take place in? Well when the DM's gently tell her, for example, nothing happened between the Suffering games and Story and song other than revisiting the BoB? Well she'll ignore that because SHE'S IN CHARGE.

Holy shit, are you serious? Ahahaha, ahahaha! Oh my god, I knew Critical Role hit market saturation a while ago, but are you serious that he replaced himself with a lame gay black woman? I thought Mercer was a nerd, I thought he'd have seen that South Park episode mocking this very trend.

Ahaha! Ahaha! Eat shit, Critters! Eat shit, Critical Role! Candela Obscura failed, Daggerheart failed, and nobody wants to watch your show anymore! Ahaha!

These opinions are so, so funny. The one praising her offers zero evidence on why she's good and instead simply lambasts any naysayers with the liberal's favorite tired old cudgel, while the other fella damning her provides specific complaints and explanations on how that feels wrong. We're so fucking back.
>>
>>92567920
Ive got to respect her hustle. She is probably the worst GM and Player i have ever seen yet she has somehow gotten into the position where she is GMing and making money from the most famous D&D table in the world. She constantly shits on Matt's lore and setting whenever she gets the chance and Matt just sit's there and lets it happen. What a cuck.

>Getting everything handed to you on a silver platter because you're black doesn't count as a "hustle" anon.
I know that but still. The amount of white guilt she has been able to grift to get into this position has to be respected on a purely hustle mindset.

I lurked reddit for a while, but got turned off by how disconnected from reality and echo chamber-y it all was.
At least /tg/ is actually a decent board and is a viable alternative to reddit. I'm also a pro wrestling fan and /pw/ has literally no discussion on it. It's just shitposts, console war shitposts, and coomers posing pics from female wrestlers' instas

I dunno, anon. I had a hard time seeing the appeal of even early critical role.

>>92570208
Some of us use topical private Facebook groups and old webforums like ENWorld, Candlekeep, and the SJG forums as our other gaming outlets, rather than Reddit. Occasionally GiantiTP, but mostly lurking.

>the social media site they shitpost on makes them a better person.
/tg/ *is* better than Facebook and Twitter and Reddit, though. Mostly my generals of choice, that is.
>inb4 4chan as a whole.
Fuck the other boards. Okay. Maybe brief excursions to /diy/ and /g/ are fun a couple times a year if you want to look up or talk about something specific.

>culture warriors
Thats pol-tard talk. I avoid those other social media sites to avoid toxic social media drama and culture war bullshit, not because I love culture war bullshit. Same reason I avoid /pol/ and Reddit.

>You mentioned FB, what about Facebook?
Like I mostly come to /tg/ for generals, I open FB only for specific groups and avoid the home feed.

I have a twitter too (that I don't post on) but again, I've bookmarked the 5 public figures I care to check up on (4 artists, and Ed Greenwood), and open their profiles directly, bypassing the home feed.

>Discord
The closed off privately moderated nature of discord is the thing that makes it any good. That and the plugin bots that extend its functionality. I want to try matrix at some point. I'll have to find a good gaming server first though.

>>92567920
>the only person who somewhat understands rpgs
Mercer actually despises TTRPG principles to begin with too:
>"consensual death can exist"
>C1: Scripted for the PCs to max and save the world
>C2: Scripted for the cast to complete their arcs as dictated by backstories
>C3: Scripted for Matt's story to be completed as has desires.
Reminder that ALL "deaths" have been orchestrated/planned well in advance in some way.
Aabria is just another in their circle (like Brennan Lee Mulligan) that embraces the control freak/storytelling/fake game mentality.
>>
>>92572250
Yeah, "fake game" whether "storyteller control freak", or "collaborative storyteller" is just so much worse than actual game. But actual game, I would suspect, makes for worse TV.

"I wouldn't play a game if I could lose"
Is a screeching line of anti-game storyshittery I will never forget. That (internet thankfully) argument over why me rolling in the open made me a bad GM, made me realize just how much those people are into an entirely different hobby than me.

And while I'm not going to try to take it from them - they're welcome to it - I'm convinced its impossible to run a campaign for people in both hobbies without it being completely shit for one group or the other.

Another layer of necessary player filtering.

Out of curiosity. What was the argument for not rolling in the open?

Im a forever GM who has and always will roll combat in the open. The dice are the dice. Some contested rolls need to have results hidden from the players, but I cant imagine why you wouldnt do combat that way.
>>
>>92576285
Forever DM, I roll everything in secret so I can fudge dice numbers if the party members are close to death.
They won't make characters without me, and I can't waste time out of my week to make it happen before a session.
>>
>>92575178
They are very different people with dramatically different DM'ng styles. I like her writing, love her acting, and enjoyed her DnD shows, but her DM style is less roleplay performance and more puzzle oriented. It's unfortunate that WotC's DnD streaming attempt bombed so utterly and silently in the depths of what might as well have been space and took her joy with it.
I hope we see more of her all the same

You say stuff like this because you are actively avoiding the majority of the hobby and they are glad to let you. Women are 40% of the playerbase, Black (and Asian) players play TTRPGs at higher per capita rates than other groups, and all-woman groups (common) are by necessity going to have a woman DM. There's 48 million Black people in the United States. If 0.001% were Black Female TTRPG Players Who DMed Once, that's 48000 of them. You don't understand demographics, large numbers, society in general, or the hobby at all.

That Chains game blew ass, and he and all his players knew it. That 4e game Dusk was way better. Should have kept doing stream games based around shortish 4e adventures he'd have gotten a lot of traction there.

Being a good critic doesn't necessarily mean someone will be a good creator, obviously, but it's still always morbidly fascinating watching someone who makes their living, or at least spends a huge amount of time critiquing go ahead and make something that is somehow worse than anything they've ever critiqued. Worse still to see it work out in the long run because cult of personality and tasteless sycophants offer support unconditionally, while the critic-turned-creator becomes entrenched in their own delusions believing all critics of their work to just be "haters"

I see that happening a lot.
Look at that crap game Critical Role is shitting out, that'll be bought only by CRdrones, I guess.

It was actually on astroturfed news stories that get pushed to you if you scroll right but I see your point. I think I made that account for the goth thot subreddits but stopped using those when they started letting trannies post their franken'pussies' there.

I've gotta imagine CR doesn't give a fuck either way. They didn't write most of it and they don't have to care if it's good or not. People blindlybuying whatever they sell is just good business for them. Helps that they're already so rich that negative criticism of their products has literally zero impact on their profitability. Other content creators, however, get so defensive when you point out that their novel or comic or whatever is a pile of shit full of the sort of amateurish tripe that they make fun of other creators for making, and set their fans to attack on their behalf.

Their setting is garbage. I might use some of their magic items but those are the only thing that's remotely interestingly designed (they're overpowered but that's fine).

I looked over the Playtest files. Pretty basic, some weird extra roll mechanics, a slightly larger list of playable races, but nothing and I do mean nothing to justify taking up THIS much goddamn space.

That claim is based on a very small survey by terminally online people, mostly Critters. Any visit to a FLGS or home games in your area utterly debunks that claim. More women are streaming D and D than ever, because they figured out it was a way to get attention. But you don't play games, you're just a culture warrior. Also you cant do math, since you based your little statistical guess on the entire black population and not the female population, fucking retarded child.

What's so bad about the game? I'm waiting until it's a little more polished, but is there anything fundamentally flawed in how the combats go or anything?

It doesn't even have an official name yet as far as I know

He uploads videos every three weeks talking about how they're throwing out design points and trying something new instead. I doubt any criticism of the system would remain relevant or valid for even a month so you can tell people shitting on it haven't actually read any of the test material and are just spouting negativity because that's the thing to do on this Vietnamese balloon animal-tying site. We'll have plenty of time to rip it apart when it's actually released.

It does have a name- or at least they've decided on one- but they haven't announced it yet seeing as all announcing what the title is invites arguments about the name in lieu of having an actual game to play.

If they haven't announced it then there's no proof they're any more decided on a name than they were on the game mechanics that have changed like 8 times in the past few months

And since we're talking specifically about WOMEN, divide that by 2. Faggot couldn't even get that right, lol. And yes, I'd bet my life there aren't 240 black women in the country who have voluntarily DM'ed a game (like where it wasn't for school credit, or forced into it by her guilty onions white bf who wanted to show off his pet).

M:F ratio isn't exact 1:1, especially not in black population (where men have considerably higher mortality)

True of all cultures ahcktually.

>>92595908
See I don't think who you replied to meant "His Game" as in the one they're making, he meant the game they streamed that was 5e D&D. The one they all stopped doing cause the players weren't having fun being live or something, despite it being part of a previous kickstarter.

No the actual game they're making, isn't even made yet. They have no real fucking concept of what it is. Which makes me baffled why people gave the man money for it.

Yes, true. And we're talking about women, but a related point is 35% of black men have spent time in prison and you may know D&D is surprisingly popular there. Even moreso in jail than in prison; prison has the big rec yards, jobs and school programs, workshops, etc. and far more opportunities to smuggle in contraband. Jail has nothing to do by comparison and guys are bored out of their minds. No, level 4+ prison blacks tend not to be too interested in D&D. But a majority are in jail or min/medium security where violence is a lot less and many will play if a white boy is going to DM and teach them. So a surprising % of black men have played D&D.

It's been ages since I've watched CR so I decided to check out this bitch's deal and watch the candela obscura sessions that she GMs. Does she actually not put on a voice or anything? It's so jarring when she switches from an NPC talking to describing the surroundings,

>>92598323
You are too stupid to know how stupid you are. You don't have to divide anything by two because it's already in the assumption being made. The rest of your post is even dumber.

Not really. I generally post and then leave the thread, never to return. I almost never actually believe what I’m posting, either, if I am posting at all I just want to do a hit and run threadshit.
