I’m running a low fantasy game, and social advancement is gonna be a thing. So the PCs are gonna be rubbing elbows with a lot of noble families as they make their way into high society. I’m just asking for NPCs and ideas.Most of the nobility are humans, but a few are half-elves and halflings.
>>97233040Be sure to give the players the social status that lets them participate in society and intrigue so that they aren't just stuck watching NPCs do stuff and can actually be the protagonists of the story
>Session 1 of buddy's new campaign>It's clear he hasn't read the rules at all and is totally winging it
>>97230596And yet HE'S actually put together a group, with players, and is out there running the game. That's makes him not only a better gamer than you, but a better human being than you. You should be on your knees thanking him for caring enough to run a game at all, instead of complaining about it online. You can't even muster the balls to bitch to him like a man. Fuck you, kill yourself, and get out. You're too pathetic to even post here.
>>97230596You know /tg/ is shit when people are upset at you for noticing your GM is incompetent. If someone invited you to a game, there actually fucking IS a minimum entry requirement. You should not invite people to a game you care so little about you haven't even bothered to learn the rules. I mean, come on, how is that too much to ask for? How the fuck are you guys actually so lacking in self-worth that you think it's acceptable to be invited to a game where the GM hasn't learned the rules? That's like being invited to a dinner, and you show up and it's not done, burnt, or raw; it's missing entirely because they simply decided not to bother! Why the fuck would you invite someone over for something, and then not bother with the bare minimum? Hey man, if you don't give enough of a fuck about playing a game to learn how the game works, maybe you shouldn't offer to run shit!That kind of behavior is so incompetent, lazy, and disrespectful that it boggles the mind.Ok, fine, be grateful at a base level to all people for wanting to spend recreational time together with me, I feel that, but at the end of the day... Are they a fucking retard? I can be polite to some inept dipshit if they have a profound mental disability like Down Syndrome or something, but it's actually totally fine to expect the bare minimum from people who aren't fucking disabled. You should be able to go into a game trusting that the GM learned the rules, that's not too much to ask.If you volunteer to run some shit, fucking read the rules. Matter of fact, reading the rules should be your number one priority before you go running your mouth about running it at all. How can you even know you like a system if you don't understand how it works? Huh? Is that just irrelevant? I feel like I'm taking retard pills even trying to understand the point of view where it's not taken for granted that the GM has read the fucking rules.It's actually ludicrous to expect anything else.
>>97232863it's rare that someone posts some autistic rant that I 100% agree with
>>97232863>>97232880Did we read the same thread?

BBEG should possess magic abilities >Player characters European presenting male fighters only, maximum one low level hedge wizard or shaman>Races All NPCs and PC should be human, finding a non-human village like elves should be extremely rare, unlikely, and magical experience

>>97222807>>97222546you are absolute dumbfucks and if your fantasy version of /tg/ with no generals were to become a reality, you would be the first person to bitch when every single thread inevitably becomes some inane one-off question about 40k lore, D&D or MTG. It will be nothing but slop threads as far as the eye can see and its thanks to generals that we ever get to talk about /awg/ or /hwg/ or obscure games.

>the agonising crawl towards the eradication of the roach across all of yugioh
>>97232945>Grandpa is an ephebophile deviant I sure hope not
>>97232945Season 0 anime is not canon because of how many things were changed in the adaptation. Like the entirety of the Death-T arc is vastly different from the manga.
>>97232945No.Some secondaries will say otherwise but that's because they consume the series via youtube clip compilations and "anime youtubers". I'll let you decide if you should trust the opinions of such people.

>>97232916poor little dragon blood...
Everyone I know who watches Fatt Coville videos is a fucking terrible GM. I've never fully watched one and I am widely considered the best GM out of all 3 groups I'm part of. I am regularly requested to run campaigns. People borderline fall asleep in the games others run. There's also no tension because they know that these Coville acolytes will fudge rolls until all PCs survive the battle. If you're a good GM, it's an inmate talent you can hone over time. You're born that way. If you aren't, then no amount of shitty advice is going to make up for your lack of talent. It just is what it is. This idea that everyone should "try" DMing is retarded. The idea that anyone can be good at it? lolno. Its like some fat divorced on who suddenly decides he's gonna become a famous author. Fat chance. Most people fucking suck at GMing. Hell, most of them suck at playing, but at least in that case the game depends less on them.
>>97232848>That'd be true except the advice from reddit was retarded hippie trash and honestly a lot of the dragon magazine writers were protoredditors. Which is why none of it is good.
>>97232552>>97232771It's simpler than that: He's low IQ and he's trying to involve himself in culture war shit, because he thinks that will make people care about his content. He's trying to be a grifter, but he's too dumb to do it. And if he is actually virtualoptim, he's been at that shit for over a decade and still doesn't understand why everyone hates his faggoty song and dance.
>>97232490That was around the time reddit started cracking down hard on "problematic" subreddits and people started getting kicked out for saying nono words and having wrong opinions
>>97232872True, but it doesn't matter because actual good DMs figure that shit out on their own. If you have to be told it, you'll fail to apply it without seeming like an autistic robot.
>>97232246Not a shock. Most ttrpg youtubers are youtubers first and gamers a distant second. Real GMing advice takes the kind of study and contemplation that cant be shit out weekly in a 10 minute animated slideshow

Is there a jump for the Rankin/Bass movies? I wanna be a Winter Warlock
Where's that angel god guy who jumps every jump that gets posted here and instantly solves the plot in one paragraph?I like his builds and his stories.I wanna post a jump but I don't want to do it if he's not gonna play it.

>>97231015>Because in the latter, shittier versionGeorge in 2005, inb4 goalpost shifting to not include that time period either
>>97231599waitare star destroyers called that because they're literally destroyer class ships, as far as the imperial navy is concerned.
>>97232062>The scale of the conflict, who Grievous was, what the actual fuck happened to AnakinTwo out of three of those things are well-explained within the films and Grievous doesn’t particularly need a background.
>>97231674You ask me, the Dreadnought and Xyston a bigger offender than the Supremacy. The latter for being a boring design and the former for being boring and stupid.The Supremacy is at least something we hadn't seen before; a mobile shipyard base (and a far star destroyer).
>>97232961Well, yeah. They certainly can't destroy stars, so that's the only other interpretation that makes any sense.Though it seems like the Empire uses "destroyer" in the same broad, meaningless way that the late-20th century American navy does, where basically any surface combatant counts as a destroyer.

No I keep them because they are strong tools and as long you beat them every once in a while, they keep in line and treat you like as the big chief those stronghold fuckers because they respect only strength, hell I can just ask one to join me in bed and they simply agree, because I'm their chief And yes sometimes they do have to wear a bag over their head so I don't feel disgusted so shut up N'wah
