Thread title
Why did they get so steamed about the whole thing, fighting slavery is like 80% of the plot hooks in a fantasy game. There were entire prestige classes and campaigns built around that.
I mean like if the bad guys don't do slavery and aren't racist / homophobic, what do they do that's actually bad

this is gay as fuck lmao

the reason why people think this is cringy is because it's obviously inspired by the player's personal butthurt.
But not just regular butthurt. Media-induced butthurt. The gayest form of butthurt.
like you can't fuckin convince me that player feels that strongly about any historical topic without having been properly lobotomized by several movies first.

shit's just embarrassing. players like that are a fucking piece of work too most of the time.

Probably not the best place to ask but I'm unsure where would be appropriate.

Where would one start reading the old pre Disney EU Star Wars novels? I'm interested most in the Thrawn Trilogy but from my limited understanding of the old EU a good number of things have happened between the start of the Thrawn Trilogy and the end of Return of the Jedi. In an attempt to make this post on topic I'm asking about this because I found the Thrawn Trilogy setting/sourcebook compendium for WEG D6 Star Wars RPG 2e and I'm unsure what to do with it since it seems to heavily rely on the readers having read the Thrawn Trilogy.

Well if you want right after return of the jedi, you kind of have truce at bakura which is happening right there. But it's not that good, you can just start at thrawn's trilogy and assume the original cast have been doing their best going on random adventures fighting imperial holdouts, settling diplomatic disputes, etc.
>>96735511
Well, if it's the thread question. My game is going somewhat roughly. We're clone wars era guys and I'm the DM. Unfortunately I suck but my friends don't seem offended yet, though they do get annoyed. Recently we left off right before a boss fight. But when the next session ends, i'm not quite sure how to pad the beginning and the end of it. I can't imagine the fight taking all 3 of our hours.
>>
>>96735834
Ah, to be clear. Truce at bakura is fine, just don't try too hard tracking down a copy. But the thrawn trilogy is basically where the EU started. There's also Dark Empire which tells a story during this period as well, the original "somehow, palpatine has returned." Pretty divisve in its day too, if you're bored go ahead and read it, it's a comic or audio drama series.

It's finally here!

>what is curseborne?
Curseborne is the newest Onyx Path Publishing TTRPG on dark urban fantasy genre. It's about being unapologetic monsters in a world where being monstrous is the least of your worries. In Curseborne, you play as Accursed, descendants of monstrous Lineages lurking in a modern world that closely resembles our own. You rebel against the ancient feuds between these entwined families, as well as against the web of curses that bind you, while fending off inhuman antagonists
seeking to claim — or reclaim — your power.

You example is just doing more moths and more curses though. Curses being the magic system is fine. VtM does blood, WtA does spirits, it's all the same deal to me on that front. I don't think they need another thing to cram another thing link that in.

Here is a simplified example of a clever usage of the Thread for an advantageous play:

Board State (Player 1's turn):

Player 1 has 2 Orange Energires Frenned with “I Am The Dot”, and nothing else.

Player 2 (top half of board) has a Manifest Entity, “Knives”, and two Violet Energies.
>>
File: 998 Knives.jpg (41 KB, 520x717)
41 KB
41 KB JPG
>>96734766

Player 2's “Knives”, a Violet Entity has the effect:
“Identify a Projected Entity: Banish it.”

Style: White Triangle
White = Once during NOT your turn.
Triangle = Tap (Reduce stat by 1)

In plain terms, this means that Knives can Banish an Entity (on another player's turn) as soon as its put onto the Thread (but not after it resolves).

Remember, a Projected card is not the same as a Manifest card. A Projected card becomes Manifest once it resolves on the Thread. It cannot use effects, conduct combat, or be used as Frenning material until it resolves on the Thread.

Player 2 is basically able to lock Player 1 out playing an Entity, because he can just Banish it right away. In YGO terms, Knive's effect is sort of like a Trap Hole.

That doesn't happen unless someone is asking for it.
It's Occam's Razor; the likeliest explanation if probably the true explanation. Nobody complaining about their entire group is competent, because, statistically, there must be at least one sane, normal player in any given group.
If none of those people seem apparent, the GM is just a fucking retard, and he's the problem. That's how it works.
There is no fucking way you can have 5 players who are EACH just as retarded as the last. If your entire group is fucked up, it's because the GM is a retarded asshole. That's the solution. It's too unlikely that the opposite is true.

if hundreds of thousands of people make the same mistake in, i don't know, identifying a plant, then that mistake is on them, you can't blame the plant for being hard to identify, the plant isn't tasked with being identifiable

however, when it comes to communication, if someone is misunderstood by hundreds of thousands of people, then they are just bad communicators, and they can be blamed for it, they failed at their task
>>
>>96735833
What I'm really getting at is, the GM is a dipshit, for whatever reason he doesn't have the trust of his own players.
You'd think, statistically, he'd have at least 1 or 2 normal players that know how to play a TTRPG?
But he doesn't, so it seems 99% sure to me that the GM is a fucking idiot that's used to leading his players astray, so now they don't listen to him or trust him because he's a fucking retard.
The one thing these fuckup, retarded GMs have in common is that they always find a way to blame their players no matter what, even if the players are completely unanimous. Pfft, yeah. If the players are literally fucking UNANIMOUS in not listening to the GM, that means the GM is a fucking idiot. It's just clear as day.
OP is a moron, can't communicate info to his players, probably has the mentality of a childish fucking retard, and when the game fails he just blames them. A story as old as time.

No they are terrifying shapeshifting apex predators unless you have a Big Solar Cock to break them into submission.
For everybody else they are the thing in the woods that picks off group members when nobody is looking, or the angry bear that charges and kills a whole group of hunters even after they emptied their guns into it. And that's not counting Lunars who get too much permanent limit from hanging out in the Wyld too much who turn into a The Thing/Alex Mercer knockoff who can regenerate from a single drop of blood.
