Your thoughts?
>>151989421>do you prefer to eat shit sandwich with white bread or full grain brown bread
>>151989421Mighty nein took too long. I'm all for buold up but I was really disappointed what felt the the gang officially getting together was the last episode.
>>151989465>the gang officially getting together was the last episode.Surf Dracula kind of thing?
>>151989421Man I'm glad I watched M9 in Japanese. Can't imagine suffering through muppet Nott
>>151989465But the characters in Vox Machina didn't grip me.
>>151989421Vox Machina is kind of generic, but its functional as what it is. M9 has some standout characters in it like Jester, but its all over the fucking place and feels like a total mess, and then having the goblin still voiced by her male player is just an objective mark against the show. Make an argument for why Sam should voice Nott in the cartoon, but not have Matt Mercer voice literally every single NPC character they meet? After all, that's how it was in the campaign! Wait, thats not a good enough reason? You don't say!
>>151989421I like every Vox Machina member. I probably only like 2 or 3 from Mighty Nein.
>>151989921They knew people would go crazy for cute sounding Goblin girl, we can't have that.
>>151989921I genuinely don't understand hating Notts voice. It's not even a Venture Brothers thing like Dr. Mrs. The Monarch, Nott there's no comma the brave is a goblin. To me in my mind, shouldn't have an attractive voice.
>>151989975The voice isn't fitting. It's just weird. And it comes from a post-cancer victim tired voice actor veteran. Not retiring doing forced falsetto is at best being stubborn.
>>151990000But the exhausted voice SUITS Nott, because Nott IS a shot-to-hell individual hopelessly alcoholic. Nott is exhausted by simply existing.
>>151990022By that logic if you'd drag post workout gymbro into recording studio his voice would fit
>>151989421Both have issues with the broader story. The smaller scale encounters are much more interesting. Id rather see more stuff like the Wraiths encounter than anything with the dragons
>>151990119>Issues with the broader storyOh? Go on.>>151990100A gymbro is not going to sound like a tiny goblin.
>>151989421Have you found your goblin waifu yet anon?
>>151990364
>>151990402
>>151989975>Why do people hate the sound of some guy who literally had fucking throat cancer putting on a gross tranny voice???Gee, I fuckin wonder.
>>151990415
>>151990192Sam Riegel doesn't sound like one either?? Retard
>>151990364Unironically adorable.
>>151989959To be honest Nott's voice is pretty much the defining reason I put Vox Machina over Mighty Nein.
>>151989421Favourite Characters>Vex>Nott>CalebGood Characters>Vax>Pike>Scanlan>JesterMeh Characters>Keyleth>Percy>Fjord>Molly>BeauBad Characters>GrogOverall, I think I like more of the characters from Vox Machina and I prefer their team dynamic.
>>151989421The character dynamics of the group in Vox Machina aren't nearly as good as those of the Mighty Nein but the Mighty Nein as a group are a lot gayer. Vox feels like a pretty conventional adventuring party, Nein feels like a theater kid party so the relationships are good but there really is far too much Drama.
>>151990909That's weird, because apart from Nott and Caleb I honestly feel like the dynamics were better in Vox Machina
>>151990920Nott and Caleb is definitely the strongest dynamic, but I like the tooth achey sweetness of Jester and Fjord, then there is the antagonism between Fjord and Nott, the support between Jester and Molly, the initial suspicion between Caleb and Beau. This being in the context of randos who just slammed into each other, it makes sense it takes a while for the party dynamic to fully settle in. Vox has Vax + Vex and Vex + Percy. Grog and Pike is alright but I don't really like their characters. Scanlan and Keyleth are just sort of there. The positive relationships just really aren't as sweet and wholesome, and the negative rivalries in the group kind of just aren't there.
>>151989421They're mixed bags.But I think I can stomach M9 more.>If some changes were made.
>>151989421Both are good. Does it really matter, anon?
>>151989421>Vox Machina or Mighty Nein: which is better?Whichever has real women
>>151992916Just 1 inch of fat...
>>151992916>>151993023Those mirrors sure are something.
>>151990858Percy meh is wild dude is why people even watched the first season if you didn't know critical role. I saw the percy arc and some images and was like huh this might be cool. Kind of sad it mostly ends and he's good prefer he still fighting a demon patron. But alas maybe just me more goes>Fave>Percy>Nott>Caleb>PikeGood>Fjord(if he gets developed more)>Molly>Scanlan>VexMeh>Beau>Keyleth>Vax>GrogBad>Jester (mostly voice and her being a adult but acting like a kid)
SEXWITHJESTER
>>151989421She's so unbearably hot...
>>151990364>coomer 40KThis is funny. I want more.
>>151989421So far only Vox Machina has petrification, making it better by default, though that may change.
>>151994041
>>151989421I'd argue both are good for different reasonsif you want a high fantasy series that doesn't take itself too seriously, then Vox Machina is definitely the way to goif you prefer a darker fantasy that takes itself more seriously and treats the cause and effect of such a setting "realistically" then Mighty Nein is a better fit, though it's tone will be hit or miss depending on how much you like gratuitous violence
>>151989921>Make an argument for why Sam should voice NottThey want their voice actor friend to get paid money
>>151994371Who gets petrified? Hot chick?
>>151989975The voice being unfitting should have been part of the curse and they should have remarked on it instead of just pretending everything was normal.Even uglying the goblin up a ton to make it seem like something is not quite right. It displays the kind of loyalty you would expect from people like them, but let's all admit that it's off putting to say the least.
>>151994035I think they realized his story was eating up the all of the meat off of the bone so they basically neutered him as a character and passed around all of the good parts to everyone else. Bad call. There's enough story potential for everyone and a marque player with a cool hook gives everyone else potential to lure viewers to the show.
>>151994035Isn't Jester a teenager?
>>151995151I choose to believe that she's a hot adult woman who likes to act childish because that's who she is.It's cuter and hotter that way.
>>151995151I thought Jester was a shut-in adult due to her mom?
>>151993046
>>151995520
>>151995527
>>151995541
>>151995549
Vox machina season one was much much better than this in my opinion at this point in the season. M9 has more interesting group dynamics and i like they don't all start as friends to the death and actually have to grown in to the characters they are supposed to be before that happens. >>151989921I actually really didn't like this at first but I grew used to it, is not that big deal for me, but I did got turned off by plenty of shows because VA before. My mind just goes "that's how goblin women sound like because they are all gross little goblins" so making a huge remark on it would be weird and only bring more attention to it.And the main reason, obviously. is that it was his character and he wanted to VA her and make money doing it also, and since he already did for so long they could just say it was an nod for the original fans of the podcast. But in the end for me is just they feeling bad from taking a character from a guy who works a VA and giving to someone else, even if it makes more sense.
>>151995527Imagine that Barbarian chick using her strong arms to milk Beau like a cow.
they are just the same thing
>>151995708Not really. Vox Machina didn't grab me at all compared to Mighty Nein. It's not fun when the characters are all buddy-buddy to begin with.
>>151989975He's not a dude?
>>151989421Half of Vox Machina are either godlike or avatars of gods now, it's boring.
>>151989975>I genuinely don't understand hating Notts voiceI guarantee that if Nott sounded exactly the same but was voiced by a woman, the faggot complaining wouldn't complain, and would even call it hothe's just assmad that a guy is voicing what would normally be his degenerate, alcoholic goblin waifu
>>151995772Nope.Nott is a female goblin. The voice seems to throw people off.
>>151995801Yeah, they sound OP as hell. No challenge there.I like that the Mighty Nein aren't all that strong. Their toughest person is a melee barbarian.And all their magic-users are neurotic as hell.
>>151995929But how can anyone not love Goblin Mommy?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmIbyFwC9a4
>>151995929That's a woman too? 'She' looks like Sokka >>151992916>>151993046
>>151995131Yeah also feel it's a bit them not realizing a dnd campaign can sometimes need some umph to translate it. You must remember that most players are autistic so they do murder hobo shit or don't really do things "in character". But originally thought he was like how the elf guy is in nein. Percy was a side protagonist on a path of revenge but hey at least he got his arc. An still had the best hook of them all, pike's arc is cool too just well feels more vague. Just feel Percy was the bread and butter, also loved his va work>>151995151She feels that way but she's implied to be a adult and old enough to fuck and live on her own.>>151995177I mean is it? Feel like she's worse than scanlan because she's to childish and the accent. Like everyone is close to dying but jester is giggling then she's crying suddenly cause she can't go to a dance. She is like the team child
>>151996207Jester was raised by an agoraphobic mother, so she has very little concept of the reality of reality.But she isn't insane. The Traveler actually is a real entity, embodying playful chaos.She even learns the true identity of her father.
>>151996108YesShe's just a very butch lesbian
>>151996332She looks like manlier version of Sokka
>>151996332But not a mean one with her lovers, far as I can tell. When another woman rejects her for not showering, she just lets her walk off after a weak protest of denial then realizes the woman is right. She DOES need a shower.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6Tvi1oJZWA
>>151996355>>151996332She also has a different personality from Sokka, being a former wild girl who had monk discipline FORCED on her.
>>151996355We're aware of thatYears ago people more made the Korra comparisons
>>151996378Which was for the best because she was acting like a common thug that would have been killed by M9 without hesitation or remembrance
>>151996379Honestly I think she'd try to kill Sokka, lol.
>>151996461By wild girl, I mean "Party girl". She was WAY too comfortable in a dress.
>>151996486Bet she moos.
>>151996328Who is her dad? Is it the traveler? Also weird to be that way when you are a whoreBut also still makes her a annoying autistic
>>151996767The Gentleman
>>151996767Actually it makes perfect sense. Jester's Mom is afraid of her clients in secret. She does the job, but she is VERY aware clients can be dangerous. It's not a shock she developed agoraphobia.
>>151996797He does support her. He's not a deadbeat. He just does not want to draw Jester's mom or her into his life of crime.
>>151994037She's itchin' for a hitchin'.
>>151997317Realistically, wouldn't a reptile woman need a ton of thermal clothing to function in such a cold environment?
>>151996797Lol dad doesn't recognize his retarded daughter>>151996912True, little did she know her daughter would be so much worse. She grew up a autistic mess who thinks everything is a joke and somehow knowledgeable of sex and adult things but has the naivety of a 10 yr old.
>>151997718I don't think he ever met or knew about her
>>151989421Choosing between one or the other slop...
>>151997317>>151997833They really need to hire a furry to design their anthro characters. They don't look that good on either show. They all look a bit "off."
>>151989421these are some of the least inspired character designs i've ever seen
>>151999760She's adorable.
>>152000155Needs pics of her super-pregnant.
I'm liking Mighty Nein more than Vox Machina. M9 has the characters meet each other, while the VM characters already know each other. Mighty Nein feels more grounded and realistic. While Vox feels way too much like superhero DnD power fantasy with plot armor galore. It's like nothing bad can ever happen to the Vox Machina group because of plot armor. They can kill a dragon, they can go to hell and back and trick Satan, they can survive a pirate ship full of pirates with guns. M9 has more realistic things happening to the characters. Mighty Nein has better relationships between the characters too. Vox feels way too much like Friends with the characters all sleeping with each other "for some reason.." Percy and Vex is the only romance I like. The others just feel thrown together.
>>152001806Plus I don't connect with the Vox. They don't feel like individuals I can relate to.The M9 are troubled in ways one can easily grasp. Nott's drunk, Beau has trouble getting laid and lacks discipline, Caleb is in serious PTSD land, Fjord is hiding his courage issues, etc.
I honestly thought Yasha was taller.
>>152002319Yeah I always thought she was the tallest of the M9, driving home her sheer raw power.
>>151996797wtf
>>151995910trvthnvke
>>151995151no shes in like her early to mid 20s
it's crazy western liberals are okay with this
>>152000155Jester would NEVER wear such an accessory!
>>152003817Not in front of Fjord anyway.>>152001365If I had any I'd catbox 'em.
>>152002690Why should anyone feel bad for this fucker. He did it on his own. Noone had a gun pointed at his head, he started a fire with cold blood and only figured out that maybe it was evil after the fact. He did no research, he did not hesitate, he just blindly followed orders. I don't know if evil mage villain is written any better in campaign but in the show he is as cunning as Adam West era Riddler.Anyone falling for his schemes does so purely because the plot says so, not because it's convincing, making Caleb as someone who got manipulated by a dude who should be twirling his mustache with each dialogue, come off as incredibly stupid. Guess that at least makes sense for him to fall for the gay elf since both are naive children.
>>152004294I believe evil wizard spy master also used memory magic to convince the trio into killing their parents. Bren's mind ended up breaking as a result of it and he got thrown in an asylum for years until he broke out.
Jester's Blue Buttcheeks!
>>152004888>My, so bold Anon~
>>152004888>tiny, green booty cheeks are better
>>152005077I wouldn't know about that. The voice is a bit off-putting.
>>152005222you keep saying that and so far nobody agrees with you
>>152005277My trips outweigh your dubs so nyeh!Would if they fixed the voice though.
>>151995700That's season 2 synopsis, no spoiler!
>>152005222I hate that Nott is a cute little Goblin woman but they deliberately gave her an ugly man voice. Fucking cocksuckers
>>152006778You don't understand. Without the voice there would be no Nott. It was a joke. Go listen to the tabletop podcasts, way better than this show anyway.
>>152006270cute boobies
>>152006270>All I'm saying is a threesome isn't that bad.
>>152006782BUT I CAN'T MASTURBATE TO HER IF I KNOW SHE'S VOICED BY A DUDE!!
>>151989421I don't care for the tone of either show, but I can stomach Mighty Nein's a bit better and the characters are more interesting. I just wish Beau wouldn't sporadically drop into overly modern slang and pull me out of it. Jester and Nott do it too, but not as often and not as bad.
Embarrassed to admit I only got the "Nott the brave, no comma" because I left subtitles on and the translators clarified it by calling her "Notso Brave" in SpanishNein is better, I bounced off Vox and only started rewatching it after I ran out of Nein eps. Both are products of the same team and it shows, Nein is far from perfect but there's a little more depth. Stupid prancing elf lala boy should've just blasted fucking Trent after he used the artifact in the siege, he showed in the last ep. that he's got plenty of magic mojo besides floating around, he could've blown up the king, Trent and their party and recovered the fucking artifact right there. End of story. Also, the theme of the party seems to be everyone has a patron riding them, Fjord, the barbarian girl, carny demon and Jester all have some supernatural shit guiding them. I guess Caleb's is Trent in a way, and Nott might be the booze. Leaving butch Sokka as the only real independent player.
its so sad that vox and mighty nein can never have good threads because this jackass went crazy crying and bitching about everythign to the point nobody wanted to make or be in the threads
>>152009138>Also, the theme of the party seems to be everyone has a patron riding themKinda. I'd say the theme is more about not letting that entity/event from your past control your future. This includes Beau with the cobalt soul and her strict upbringing that was hinted at in the season finale. And despite Fjord and the barbarian lady literally having patrons, I think those are more coping mechanisms to deal with their real problem (Fjord's rough childhood and Yasha losing her wife), sort of like how Nott's booze is just to cope with being turned into a goblin

>>152011103I know fuck all about DnD.
>>152011875You roll dice and act like a retard while the GM fudges dice to keep you alive and tries to get you back on rails.Also you get hit on by someone who hasn't bathed in 3 months as they try to gay ERP with your PC.
>>152012015Sounds about right.
>>152009530>Gobbo booty needing to be spanked
>>151989421I like the cast in Mighty Nein more.
>>152011103Played a Rogue(Thief) with the Healer feat a few years... Good God, many years back now. The build was great. Thief Rogue is already really fun if your DM actually puts some effort into the environment design of encounters, since Cunning Action and Fast Hands really opens up your action economy, so you actually can spare a bonus action to do some goofy stuff or use a tool without wasting your turn. Using a healer's kit falls under Fast Hands and Healer buffs it to bring downed people back to 1 HP so you can act like a pocket Cleric on top of your normal Rogue shenanigans. It's a blast to play.As for the character, she was a human and the idea was that she was an acolyte of Pelor (or whatever sun/healing god was appropriate for the setting) who worked in a church hospital for years and years, hoping that if she kept up the good work and prayed a lot, she'd get to be one of the REAL healers, hearing the voice of god and working miracles. But god's voice never came and she finally cracked when a fresh acolyte showed up and started shooting holy lights out of her hands on her first day.So she left the church, figuring that if god wanted her somewhere, it wasn't there. Of course there's only so much demand for mundane healers when there's potion makers and miracle healers around, so she was channeled into being a back alley doctor for people who couldn't show their faces at a church, as well as frontline first aid for unappreciative adventurers. Along the way she picked up a drinking habit, insomnia, and a cynical attitude.The fun part about playing her was that charging the other players for heals always provoked indignation, even I was operating at cost for the healer kit usage. It fed into her complex about being underappreciated wonderfully.
>>152006270>can easily look like a hot woman>chooses to be butchI just don't understand tomboy fetishists.
>>152012139I like this concept a lot. I'd probably not pay either.
>>152012196There's degrees of tomboy. Beau is an actual hard butch lesbian, which is a step beyond the average tomboy enthusiast's ideal.
>>152012256>Holy shit I love boobs and pussy>I also love boobs and pussy>Okay but one of us has to act like the man>Okay, I'll abuse you and you can remove anything feminine about you!I don't get lesbians.
>>152012298Unfortunately, removing penises from the equation doesn't prevent woman moments
>>152011764Alright.CN male beastkin barbarian with animal instinct (wolf)The Wolf King of the North. Former leader of a tribe of lycanthropes (primarily werewolves with some werebears mixed in), he believed he was chosen by the spirits to unite the disparate clans into one unified nation, a nation where moon-born were cherished and celebrated instead of hunted and reviled. And he actually started making some headway, using a mixture of proper diplomacy and raw strength to convince two other werewolf packs to join his tribe. However, this caught a lot of unwanted attention, and the would-be king's empire swiftly crumbled when a cabal of monster-hunting mages showed up and decimated the tribe before turning their sights onto my character and hurting him in the deepest way possible: using a dark ritual, they tore his wolf spirit from him, leaving him with only a fraction of his power. Now, he's on a quest to find the ones who killed his tribe, regaining his lost power along the way.Mechanically it's just a hairy barbarian that takes as many class feat dips into the werewolf archetype as possible. In the day to day roleplay, he's a quiet man to most strangers since he doesn't have much to say, but if you get to know him and accept his belief and affection for lycanthropy (which he sees as a blessing instead of a curse, albeit one he doesn't want to share with the unwilling), he's a plenty fun guy to hang around with a good sense of humor and a fierce sense of loyalty - befriend him, and he'll fight to hell and back for you.
>>152012528Sounds pretty cool anon, wanted to let you know that before the thread possibly dies.
Oh and I thought PF2e basically gutted the existence of classes.
>>152012998All I've ever heard of PF2e is that it doesn't actually fix any of the problems with Pathfinder while making the action system more awkward in the process.
>>152013216It makes the system more modular and approachable - classes still exist, but most customizability comes from feats, which there are an assload of. Class feats, ancestry feats, general feats, the list is endless. The three action system makes encounters a bit more streamlined, but it does take some getting used to if you're used to traditional combat. I personally enjoy PF2e, but if you're a TTRPG veteran it's probably a bit too simplistic.Also the setting is getting increasingly stupid and the writers need to fucking stop.
>>152013677Didn't they make all the monster races good and gay or some shit?
>>152014482You know she rode that bull before.
>>152014962Pretty much, yeah. Monster races are good, orcs and goblins are a respected culture now, every single female deity in the pantheon is a lesbian, every single female villain ends up turning good of their own accord, slavery and sexual assault doesn't exist anywhere (including in literal Hell), and most recently the god of war died because he didn't like the fact that wars kept happening, so he arranged his own assassination. Oh, and the demon lord of succubi also ascended into godhood, so there's been talk of establishing that succubi and incubi will all either go extinct or become paragons of good and not tempt mortals with sex anymore (though to be fair this part is not canon...yet).
>>152015454What the fuck

>>151989421wait a second...I'm noticing a few....differences...
>>151989421Comparing season 1 of both seasons? Mighty Nein, no question. I actually liked how slow-paced it felt, and I came to care more about the team as a whole by the end of the season than I did about the Vox Machina cast and the end of theirs, where there were a few characters I liked a lot, but didn't really care about the rest. That being said, VM has held up pretty well in its following seasons, while I've heard that the 2nd campaign IRL really fell off at some point, so my opinions may change.

>>152016137First of all, obviously the worldbuilding isn't relevant to individual campaigns since GMs can pick and choose what they want and many aspects won't even come up in casual play, but just knowing there are complete retards at the helm that are actively trying to get people to use their shitty writing to the letter is ridiculous, and we are allowed to point out how stupid it all is.Second, chutes.
>>152016372Most american black people have some white ancestry. Its why many are much lighter than others.
>>152016470Looks at least half-pajeet, like an Angela Jonsson type.
>>152016503yea ok
>>152016508I accept your concession.
>>152016521na you just want something to go back and forth on like you somehow have some random ass image read to post
>>151989975In my mind, nott is a goblin femboy
>>152016539Try that again, but in English.
does this dumbass think katara is a "pajeet" now because she has dark skin?
>>152016635shut this brain dead shit up better luck next time jackass
this dude probably wanted to post about that shit so bad he had posts and images prepared to argue with somebody
>>152016650Thank you for the (You), but I didn't ask.
Does anyone have the scene where nott walks into the inn where Caleb is staying at? I need those jpegs for research
>start watching this because I'm curious>pause at the start of ep 2 with Fjord and the captain>Amazon does that "here's the actors for this part" thing>says Tim McGraw is the captain>think "surely it's just a shared name, it's not THE Tim McGraw-">it isWell I'll be
>>152016944you know hat line he gives Fjord on you can or you cant that's a quote from a real thing henry ford said
>>152016978that line
>>152016634>Gobbo bussy
>>152016486Actually because most Americans blacks are injuns with a distinct genetic structure thats ift ksbeledbas other ir "from america" in the rare real genetic testing they do.
>>152015454Thank fuck you can ignore that faggot shit and brew your own parallel world building. Goddamn this is a cluster fuck.
>>151989421Mighty Nein are better characters and the show has better pacing. Not surprising, everyone involved in every step of the process had more experience.
>>151990909I think it's the apples and oranges that comes with Vox Machina being the party of a bunch of people playing a home game and not caring too much about where it went initially, only for it to grow into something more. So it lacks some of the polish and distinct dynamics that comes with being made under great scrutiny, but feels a bit more organic in reflection of a group of friends telling a story together.
>>151989421i want teor animated
>>152016944>Caleb broke the beetle jarsoh no
Critical roll or anime, which is better?
>>152017879yeah they totally murdered the audience, but that show was wildly OSHA noncompliant anywayI have a question, is this supposed to be a pair of D&D shows? I've not seen any D&D trademarks mentioned so they're just going with generic fantasy, despite it being extremely D&D coded (All those fucking tieflings all over the place)
>>152017837i dont
>>152018211anime probably? there's a bit more variety
>>152016286I think he's trying to say Vex, Vax, and Scanlan's skin is darker in the tv series.
Gag her if the voice upsets you.
>>152018221You do know this is all based on a series of D&D campaigns, right?
>>152019511Yes, clearly. Like Lodoss War long before any of these guys even knew what an RPG is, I'm just wondering if there's any official connection with the animated show. Weren't wizards of the coast trying to do something shady with the derivative IPs? Clearly, they're D&D animated series, but the D&D trademark is conspicuously absent, unlike something like Fell's five which is overtly a D&D comic. I guess it must be OK, Order of the Stick has been getting away with it for decades now...
>>152016233C2 had a couple of stretches where it dragged a bit, usually during transitions between chasing different major plot threads. It’s something that will hopefully be improved on in the show.
>Vox Machina or Mighty Nein
>>152018221Wizards doesn't actually own 90% of the stuff in Dungeons and Dragons.And they can't trademark gameplay.So anyone can just copy what they want from it and make their own game and media. The D&D name doesn't have to be on it at all. Besides, the normies don't know any better and if they're smart they can create their own little DnD for dummies rip off they can learn in a bored afternoon and play with some scratch sheets of paper and couple of dice.
>>151989421Choosing between one or the other slop...Again, where is the medieval in medieval fantasy?
>>152019960>So anyone can just copy what they want from it and make their own game and media.That's what Pathfinder did!
>>152020015"medieval fantasy" no longer means "medieval" fantasyit just means set in a time period/universe where there aren't skyscrapers, cars or guns
>>152020079And this is why D&D is dying.
>>152020101That's fucking retarded. No one plays DnD because it's medievil. They play it for the roleplay and game and something to do with friends. YOU are why DnD is fucking dying.
>>152020121What a joke. D&D is dying because of people like Vox Machina.
>>152020101>>152020121DND isn’t dying. The hobby is the most popular it’s ever been.
>>151989421I've thoroughly enjoyed both if that's what you're asking
>>152020132>>152020136Yeah I mean if anything circa 4e D&D was "dying" because of the grognards, during 2e it was "dying" because of conservative satanic panic freaks. So its really just been saved and reinvigorated; the same antisocial weirdos who always dragged it down are upset by this.
>>152020132People like Critical Role and Stranger Things is why D&D saw a resurgence.Wizards of the Coast is strangling DnD by attempting to turn it into a solo AI thing that needs a 10k computer and microtransactions to even play it. First group to make a simple normie friendly version of DND or roleplay with a pamphlet and some dice will save the industry. >>152021441Anon, the satanic panic was valid. There were groups using DND to spread satanism. That's not even up for debate.
>>152015454>slavery and sexual assault doesn't exist anywhere (including in literal Hell)So the jump between evil in this world is "dude who kicked a puppy for fun" and "mass murdering psychopath"?
>>152021892No, it wasnt. They literally had kids' saying that they were fed to tigers. You fell for it, probably again, but don't take that out on me or on tabletop RPG fans.
>>152021892>First group to make a simple normie friendly version of DND or roleplay with a pamphlet and some dice will save the industry.It's called Shadowdark and sadly nobody plays it. 5e fanboys don't care about a 'streamlined' experience (despite that being their main argument against pathfinder) they just care about name recognition
>>152022047Name recognition makes it easier to find a table and provides a community of resources. Familiarity with the rules creates ease of play. And D&D has a huge swath of well known fantasy settings to choose from. I don't care for 5e but these things are definitely material factors in its favor
>>152022082>And D&D has a huge swath of well known fantasy settings to choose from. How many DMs genuinely care? How many players? Because outside of mechanics, the actual in-house setting and lore doesn't really count for anything in 95% of tabletop campaigns unless they're specifically running a premade module, and even then the DM is going to skip over most of the backstory in favor of "that is a vampire, go kill". Even Critical Role made shit up with Exandria, the most a DM will ever reference from written lore are gods and meme characters like Drizzt or Elminster.
>>152022273I guess it's subjective. In my experience it's been useful for gathering players and organizing things like tone. Critical Role is a tv show you know? Its not real. Its not actual D&D. Granted my crusty ass still plays Icewind Dale so maybe I'm out of touch as well but from what I know, people do often enjoy knowing the setting going into things.
>>151995910Yeah no shit he's complaining about the voice, that's the complaint's focus.Cute thing with a cute girl voice, that's goodCute thing with a kinda faggy man voice? Gay as hell.Rape yourself with glass.
>>152022668>no shit he's complaining about the voice>proceeds to not complain about the voice and instead about the voice actorlolalso>he's>third personlmao even
>>152022031That's the crazy shit put into media to make you go "Guffaw those dang bible thumpers".But take it from a man who's dived deep into arcane stuff and the dirty secrets of...well...you don't want to knowThey used it as a recruitment tool to lure people. And it worked. Shame that the other guys didn't use it to teach the more susceptible potential victims some stuff to protect them and desciminate the knowledge through DND campaigns and story lines to stop them from being..well.Once again..you definitely do not want to know.
>>152022748>That's the crazy shit put into media to make you goNo that's the literal testimony from the kids involved in the mcmartin preschool slanderWhat do you mean you've done research into this but you somehow didn't know about these details?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McMartin_preschool_trial>Some of the accusations were described as "bizarre",[7] overlapping with accusations that mirrored the emerging satanic ritual abuse panic.[6][23] It was alleged that, in addition to having been sexually abused, the children saw witches fly, traveled in a hot-air balloon, and were taken through underground tunnels.[6] When shown a series of photographs by Danny Davis (the McMartins' lawyer), one child identified actor Chuck Norris as one of the abusers.[24]
>>152022748>>152022875>Some of the abuse was alleged to have occurred in secret tunnels beneath the school.[25] Several excavations turned up evidence of old buildings on the site and other debris from before the school was built, but no evidence of any secret chambers or tunnels was found.[6] There were claims of orgies at car washes and airports, and of children being flushed down toilets to secret rooms where they would be abused, then cleaned up and presented back to their parents. Some child interviewees talked of a game called "naked movie star" and suggested they were forcibly photographed nude.[2][6][26] During trial testimony, some children stated that the "naked movie star" game was actually a rhyming taunt used to tease other children—"What you say is what you are, you're a naked movie star"—and had nothing to do with having naked pictures taken.[6]>Judy Johnson, who made the initial allegations, made bizarre and impossible statements about Raymond Buckey, including that he could fly.[2] And that's just McMartin, but it's a good cipher for the whole conspiracy.You don't know what you're talking about and you either fell for bullshit or you somehow delight in ruining tabletop RPGs for everyone else; in either case suck my asshole Cocteau I'm the Demolition Man.
>>152020015>Again, where is the medieval in medieval fantasy?Medieval Europe last roughly a millennium and things didn't stay the same in that time. If you want an accurate medieval fantasy you're going to have to be specific about what exactly it is you want.
>>152020015>>152020079ok jackass what did you want the characters to do then what the fuck are you pretending to be mad about
>>152011103Leonin Sun Soul Monk prideful but cautiousextremely prejudiced towards Undead
>>152019820Anon, darling, retard.IT'S AN ADAPTATION OF SOME VOICE ACTOR'S PATHFINDER AND LATER DND 5E CAMPAIGN.They just had to change some names to not owe WoTC money for the TV show.
>>152022623No, you've got a point. I suppose there are some settings that are going to require a bit more focus on the premade lore than just letting the DM wing everything - Planescape comes to mind. Still, I maintain that most Forgotten Realms tabletop players and DMs don't care that much because of how broad the setting actually is - that is partly the point, since it lets enterprising young dungeon masters put whatever cool thing they want in the setting without much contradiction in lore. And for players, most lore drops relate only to how they can use the information in the campaign, since they themselves are helping to craft the world as they play (as opposed to playing a vidya, where a players influence on the world is limited).Also I'm so glad there are still people who play the older RPGs, I fucking love Shadows of Amn/ToB but nowadays it's impossible to have a Baldur's Gate discussion because all anyone cares about is BG3 and Shadowheart's tits
>>152022902They shit down the school for a while and tried to prevent pictures from leaking But we saw what was down in those tunnels. They had places set for meals. There was an alter. It was fucked. Wikipedia is in no way trustworthy anon. Neither is google.
>>152022902>Judy Johnson, who made the initial allegations, made bizarre and impossible statements about Raymond Buckey, including that he could fly.I mean… did they prove that he couldn’t?
