Fantasy be like:"humans are le neutral aligmnent race xd"real life:"humans are chaotic and maybe evil race may God have mercy on our souls when we die as were born with sin"how do you reply without sounding angry? were just orcs that have slightly more IQ
>>98009706>sin provides an explanation for human behaviorAre you addled?Are you a monkey who just escaped from a zoo and is senselessly repeating random words you've heard?
>>98010370There was a selection effect which made humans less violent, but it doesn't work like you're suggesting.Basically, language allowed humans to pass moral judgment on other humans. If one chimpanzee eats another chimpanzee's baby, all that the mama can communicate is "I am very angry at the other chimpanzee." All decisions about who to beat up and who to protect have to be based on affiliation alone, since you only have access to information you personally saw.Now that we have language, we can say, "That human being wronged me in this way." While affiliation still matters, we can say, "that human ate a baby, therefore we shall kill that human," which leads to coalitions formed against antisocial behavior, creating a selection effect against it. While baby eating is rarer, we do have plenty of anthropological evidence of immediate return hunter-gatherers (who live similarly to our ancestors) ganking antisocial individuals because they were antisocial.We also developed pointy sticks, which greatly reduce the advantages of large musculature, which is why humans have the lowest sexual dimorphism of any great ape. This also makes it way easier to gank another human.Only the antisocial human (and maybe his immediate kin) benefits from his antisocial behavior, while everyone benefits collectively from crushing antisocial behavior, so there was a self-domestication process that took place.(All this only applies to intra-tribal violence, of course; inter-tribal violence is different, like how a well-trained and well-behaved dog can be made to bite a person at its master's command.)
>>98023187What fucking literature; the back of milk cartoons and cheap smut?Not even during burning war did 25% of the male population die by violent means. What you're saying is not reflected in any analysis of human remains.
>>98004365Humans are not OrcsWe're hobgoblins.Lawful Evil, not Chaotic Evil.
>>98023214It's lifetime, not in a single war, dummy. Chimpanzees manage a similar rate.https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/evan.21446
What went wrong?
>>98022867>Not allowed anymoreBullshit. I know everyone had their little pussy panic attack about it, but shit's still going strong.
>>98022882I think he means STLs. The "license" kind of gave off vibes similar to that WOTC license that the DnD community had a massive scream over that made WOTC back down.
>>98022936>I think he means STLs.He can *mean* that, but it's just incorrect. Folks aren't "allowed" to make models in the same way they're not "allowed" to make 40k models, and those are still going strong, too.Don't use the official names. I've seen a few creators have to pull or modify things because they were too closely based on "official" art or naming conventions. Which, yeah, that's bullshit and I don't like that they had to do it, but the content went right back up anyway.
>>98022523The Aztecs of all people being opposed to the human sacrificing demons is the funniest result of their scrambling to not offend anyone.If anything, the Spanish should have shown up, joined that huge alliance against the Aztecs (which predated the Spanish arrival and was formed because all the other people around were sick of being farmed for human sacrifices), and then lost grimdarkly when an Aztec pyramid covered in human sacrifice blood exploded in demons.
>>98022961Technically, it all counts as "Fan Art". And if AMG are ever stupid enough to seriously go after that side of things, I am pretty certain it will straight up kill MCP dead.

>>98022567No, the spines break with repeated use and the pages do not lay flat, spiral bind is what you're describing.
>>98022746That's on industrially bound hardbacks, if they're done by an actually skilled craftsman, they can lay flat and last a lot longer than any shitty glued paperback ever will.
>>98022839So, anecdotally "my hard coverss are special and different" ? That's your argument? An exception (which no one else here can handle to verify) that proves the rule?The talk here is having pdfs printed, for anyone who isn't an artisanal bookbinder hobbyist (which is everyone) that means a printing service.So you agree that my statements are correct for the use case that is valid to everyone who is not you.
>>98022746I have paper back and hard back game books. Hardback works excellent for laying on the table or lap and the pages are more often going to lay flat. Paper back dosen't lay flat very well and the spine is far more prone to damage from trying to get pages to lay flat.When I play with my hardback books I can lay them on the side table and leave it open to specific pages I want to reference. I have to open the paper back to whatever page I need every time.Printing a pdf game i would just use my own printer and a large paperclip.

>>98023171Get friends, loser
>>98023086Reddit still is full of capeshit MCU fags. The problem is the license is oversaturated and spread out everywhere over everything that is isn't going to generate any hype. Also a Marvel TCG already exists.
>>98023063Furthermore I will add, if WotC had hot girls with boobs and ass with the same designs Marvel Rivals uses, this set would stell billions, possibly outselling final fantasy. Hasbro and the WotC troons are purposefully shooting themselves in the foot in the name of woke ideology. And it's not like gooner cards of hot girls would chase away girls. Plenty of nerd women play Marvel rivals and cosplay and draw fanart of all the gooner characters. When they play DnD or role player video games, they generally make their characters hotties.
Why is important that Amber Glenn likes Magic as a woman?I thought women already liked Magic, such as Autumn Burchett?
>>98023217WotC fellates every pseudocelebrity who likes their game. They made a whole fucking Secret Lair for Post Malone
Any thoughts?
>>98021526Not OP.You mostly build it your self or use one of the setting books.
>>98021465I picked up a copy of Space d6 but my friends haven't really seemed too enthused about it. I just want to play some d6 games. They're my favorite dice.
>>98021465It's good. It didn't get enough attention when it came out which was not long before WEG wound down due to some weird financial entanglement with its owner's family-owned parent company which went bankrupt and dragged WEG with it.No licensed settings for D6, though at the same time WEG did have licenses for its MasterBook system. Since you probably haven't heard of MB it wasn't money well spent. Not a huge amount of support for the few mostly generic settings D6 did introduce.Its forebearers were Star Wars and Ghostbusters which were fine games. While SW was sufficiently appreciated, GB was underappreciated. It came out a couple of years after the movie. The movie was still well known amongst the target customers but the rpg was not as popular as it might have been had it come out sooner. The rpg was a bit of a one trick pony. I don't think it had staying power for a long campaign but its core system was developed into SW which shows the broad versatility of the d6 system.D6 is a good system, still worth playing today as are the SW and GB games.
>>98021465Like any generic system, steaming hot dogshit.
>>98021465I genuinely love the die pooling for it, and it makes sense with you splitting it to do things like swinging from a chandelier while firing a pistol. Progression is interesting, so long as you give out enough points you can upgrade a few different skills a session. Given that you upgrade pips that then turn into additional dice you feel their progress without your players becoming godlike quickly. If you use a map it does offer some fun tactical choices. Combat is explosive and flashy, though it covers multiple genre's it does pulpy action scenes the best (Star Wars roots really on display here). It's not a simulation combat system but takes into account what actions you'd want to make (ducking into cover, dodging as you run, etc).Star Wars 2e Revised is my favorite version of the system, but generic D6 does some fun stuff like adding in a drawback/advantage system to further tailor your characters.D6 Space and Ships from what I saw differs a good amount from Star Wars D6, but I haven't gone through to really suss out the details.

>>98022114True and based. Now if only we could kill all the "people" making AI slop gen jumps on Reddit so I didn't need to see those ever again.
>>98023164See? As long as you scrape the absolute bottom of the barrel for stuff that has nothing to do with mechanics and which was never actually mentioned in early jumps either, you can come up with ways we're different from Quicksilver. (Seriously, in what context do you think the Flux or Lego Harry Potter jumps would be bringing up the fact that Pokemon Trainer is the first jump?)Here, let me help by pointing out the few mechanics that have actually changed from Quicksilver's original vision:>Lack of age rolls>Followers>Gauntlets>>98023186Without having read it, it seems utterly pointless. There's nothing it could do to adapt a CYOA to Jumpchain mechanics that wouldn't of necessity be so vague that I'd essentially be adapting the CYOA myself.
>>98023186IIRC, it does way more than what I'd want. If I'm gonna be using a CYOA as a jump, I'll adjust things to fit my needs rather than complicating things further with someone's interpretation of how things work.
>>98023215>>98023203i don't think it really adapts a cyoa other than telling you you stay in that cyoa's setting for ten years?
>>98023186It's silly that someone felt the need to make it, but I suppose letting low imagination specimens play around with things Sartre-chads have been doing for ages is a worthy purpose.

I appreciate what they're going for but yeah I don't think it'll ever really be WoD, more like a more horror themed DnD which is fine on its own
