I'm thinking of looking for an online d&d group since I'm a fa/tg/uy with no friends and I've never played a ttrpg before. What has your experience been with online groups?

Fair enough, it's how I got my start, too.
When you look for games, you can use Roll20 (supposedly it has a LFG function, never used it), dedicated discord servers (for specific games/playstyles, e.g. OSR), or maybe r/lfg (just filter out 5e if you're not interested in it, "-[5e]"). Probably other places out there I don't know about, too.
Feel free to ask if there's anything you're curious about, did online play both as a player and GM.

If there's lore of them and they exist in multiple contexts, not just one nation or area which exists only to be their nation and doesn't interact with anywhere else.

>>98182826
I think this is both too harsh and too lenient. They don't necessarily need to have a village-oriented lifestyle. But also, "the writers said there's totally a nation of them somewhere" doesn't really make it not freakshit. I agree with the idea that you should be able to imagine them doing more than just an extremely narrow band of professions, in theory. But there are real life races and societies that the average person can't imagine that about, so it's sort of all relative.

Welcome to Open OSR.This thread is for open OSR discussions. For the purpose of this thread OSR is defined as an emulation of pre-3e D&D either with mechanics, style or even vibe. This includes old-school D&D, retroclones, neoclones and broader OSR-adjacent and retro games.

There is a general for those of you who prefer OSR games strictly inspired by the first decade D&D and if that is your preference, you can find that here >>98163653

It's more about the crunchy mech combat. It's to much for me, almost a pure up wargame with characters as an afterthought. I find the setting kinda interesting, but it's really a combat sim

>I think AI has also made people super wary.
That seemed like a bit of a splash here but overall most people dgaf about ai art one way or the other. The art is there to break up text and have some themes but the actual content doesn't matter too much to many, its more that they'll notice the lack there of.
You might be able to push it but not taking it to kickstarter killed your momentum on that one.
>>
>>98193310
It was a miss for me too, I have wargames for mechs and story games for mechs, the mid range tends not to do it for me.
Setting seemed generic leftish space opera. The overt political tone of the publishers is off putting but I think what I'm getting at is that sort of approach is functional enough sales wise. Sort of a bummer but a good show that the grift that other anon was talking about does indeed get more than one shot. Maybe even that social media advertising and hype is integrated enough that prepping the shots and sustaining them is part of the game but it looks effective over time for some.

>That seemed like a bit of a splash here but overall most people dgaf about ai art one way or the other.
People recognize it as a sign of low quality. Drive Thru RPG actually no longer accepts any new products that use AI because they were getting flooded with them and it made the whole platform look bad.
>>
>>98193372
I don't mind the setting, but yeah the rules did not do it for me, far too crunchy. I don't know if I would call this kinda thing grift, so much as it's having an audience and pitching it to them. The rules are well done and the quality of the books are great, I am just so not the target.

I do write a little bit every day, now. I just tore everything down and restarted countless times. I'm on the right path now though. I'm currently trying to figure out why Outsider Gods might be wanting to move into the apocalypse'd city and become both a threat and potential advantage for the player. "They're manifestations of hunger" is too played out, and "they want to be worshipped" is too non threatening and personable.

Hela is an Asgardian, and the only Asgardians we got in the set were Thor and Loki due to their close association with the Avengers. It's clear that everyone else is being saved for a future set focused on magical characters, just like Doctor Strange and Ghost Rider.
As for the Red Skull, it's clear that they intentionally didn't include him because he's a Nazi, which is strange since Baron Strucker and Arnim Zola are also Nazis, but I guess the Red Skull's nazi-ness is more well-known.
Red Skull aside, I think that between the main set, Jumpstart and the precons, they included every major villain that isn't part of the X-Men, cosmic, or magical sides of the Marvel Universe.

The only really notable villain I can think of that didn't get a card is the the Purple Man. Which is strange since he was in the Jessica Jones TV shows, so a lot more people know about him than fucking Stilt-Man.

i hate the idea of npc only race in fantasy games most of the time it's cuz the game world has WAY TOO MANY RACES (high fantasy moment) but when they dont its usually some shitty "le grim dark low fantasy slop" where every race looks like a human OR if they do have non human races too they're just enemies or "too rare to play lol" why not just have 10 races and only 1 race look human (humans) might aswell make them the oldest race to exist (like elf tropes) and the other 9 races just follow and mimic human cultures or make up their own but still close to human.

overall i think humans being less common makes them fell special too
