When did Magic players get so delusional? The performative outrage about UB has got to be some of the most faggy outrage ive seen in this game. If you bought/played with any secret lair cards or LotR cards then you have no room to complain about the current trajectory, this is your fault. If you are anti UB because they dont "fit" Mtgs setting, but purchased/played Neon Dynasty, Thunder Junction, Duskmourn, Aetherdrift, or Edge then you have no media literacy because they are all basicly UB sets without an IP attached. Stop posting like UB is the death of magic, I remember when we thought Mythic rarity was going to be the end and now look at this bullshit. Its going to keep going on until people are done playing the game and move to something else, and theres not a single TCG right now that could take its place. >inbf I proxy so I winYou are a faggot in denial, if you play the game in anyway, you are coupable in this. Thank you for reading my TedTalk.
>>97388673
>>97388673to be fair, even without UB, I think the bigger problem is having fucking 7 legal sets coming out every year, there's no time to appreciate any of them we're always 1 month away from spoiler season, it's insane
Haven't bought cards since UB first reared its ugly head with the Godzilla alternative art cards in Ikorea. I suspected it was a canary in the coal mine and my suspicions were confirmed with the walking dead SS bullshit. I dropped the game and haven't looked back other to sneer at the absolute state of decay it is in.
Show a Magic player in 2016 this image and they'll think you're shitposting.
>>97388673That's cool, but why is every new mechanic just Kicker?
What does your character do during adventure downtime? Do they have a side job or something?
>>97375833Depends on the game>Perfect DrawEither gets his father's "might makes right" worldview drilled into him so he can take over his father's business someday, or visits his sickly younger sister in the hospital.>Digimon Digital Adventures 1.4, game aWe haven't had any real downtime, but if we did the human would spend his time playing MMOs and the digimon would spend her time practicing how to stab people better.>Digimon Digital Adventures 2eAgain, no real downtime in this game cause of the setup, but the human plays basketball (he's 6 feet tall in japan since he's a half-breed) and the digimon would probably get bored and start eating anything that resembled food.>Digimon Digital Adventures 1.4, game bAgain, no real downtime, but the human would probably watch whatever your average 15 year old girl in 1999 was watching and the digimon would probably try to keep the more rambunctious members of the party out of trouble.Comment too long.

Its the other way around. Quests and adventure are the funding for our main goal which is just living life
>>97392200Surely there are easier ways to do that lol
>>97375950Wow, this guy is a fucking faggot.
>>97393811Most work in an accurate setting world barely pays enough to cover expenses. A month of dungeoneering can cover you for the next 11 months.That was the original purpose.

>>97391544>>97391606you guys are forgetting something very important: gaya unless she is a loyalist angel is also a spirit herself
>>97391544Gaia didn't make everything, she just is everything.
It all boils down to "God/Gaia/the writers made the World of Darkness a flawed and terrible place as a punishment, as a joke, because they're flawed and terrible themselves or because it would be a pretty boring game otherwise."
>>97393821>>97393919>>97393926Gaia is the spirit of Creation. As in the spiritual reflection of the world the Elohim made. Just like the spirit of a fox is a reflection of a fox.
>>97393926>>97394004This is however slightly boring and though correct I would just like to picture Gaia as a very irresponsible mother.

>Are orcs just misunderstood and oppressed? Not in canon D&D lore. Or at least for most of the existence of D&D.
>>97393560>TQI feel like that'll depend on the setting as opposed to DnD as a whole, but I haven't seen any Orc sympathy yet.The misunderstood scary people would be Tieflings and Half-Orcs.
>5 (five) warp witch encounter at lvl3fun times
>>97393560No, they're brutal raiders who prefer hewing through the weak and helpless. It wasn't until Obould Many-Arrows, an orc who was divinely blessed to be less of an impulsive fucktard than most of his race, came along that they even considered the possibility of semi-peaceful relations with other races. Then they started the War of the Silver Marches and a dwarven coalition force had to step in and kick their asses.
>>97393560Orcs are shit. Entirety derivative. Elves are people with long ears. Orcs are elves with green skin.I almost always use Goblins instead because they're far more whimsical. Often I'll use them a misunderstood. One of my favorite things that I tend to stick in is the Kingdom of Flowers. It is a Goblin settlement, usually in a forest, where all the Goblins like to adorn themselves with myriad colors and types of flowers. It's usually fae related and sometimes I'll place it in the Fae Wild. They are chaotic neutral and may provide the party with info or safe passage in exchange for a story or a joke.
It fucking sucks.Long live V20.That's the thread.
>>97391433You're saying that like I'm supposed to be embarrassed about it, I don't know why. People learn idioms and expressions from others, dude. There's no reason to *lie* about that, so praising me for being honest is ridiculous. You sound like a paranoid schizo; nobody has any reason to lie to you.
>>97389021I'm not opposed to risk but considering you have to make a rouse check to wake up, appear alive, and use any discipline beyond the first dot: the game is literally just setting you up for failure. To even perform the basics already puts you at potentially 3 hunger before leaving your haven since the last dot doesn't go away unless you fully drain a victim. It doesn't feel like I'm taking a risk. It feels like I'm just waiting for RNGzus to tell me I spazzed out while driving and decided to reenact Death Race 2000.
>>97388338Are you retarded? This terminology predates everything that has anything to do with Paracuck. V1/V2/VR/V20 is in use because it designates it as Vampire, as opposed to, say, M20, or C20. Don't be a mongoloid.>>97388407>I like V5Unironic slop-sucking retard. Take your shitty setting and shove it up your ass.>>97390935>If the player doesn't act like a vampire, isn't roleplaying like he's a vampireThen you don't play with Vampire with him, retard.
>>97391433Well since people have been saying it since the 90s you've had plenty of time to hear it.
>>97390935>>97393201You both are aware that you're dealing with downsides everywhere while you're playing these games anyway right? Just because someone gets to use vampiric super powers doesn't mean he doesn't have to feed it off eventually or he gets unstable, on top of dealing with sunlight, the social consequences of being a starving drooling beast, etc. Yeah if someone wants to just be a Morbius that wouldn't be fun but, but there's plenty of mechanics even in oWoD to make sure that doesn't happen. A player can't simultaneously feed and spam constantly, have a high self-control character, have good stats, and have decent disciplines.Every splat deals with their own bullshit too, there was no need to add shit like rage dice to Werewolf (although, I actually like hunger and rage dice) and they get angry enough. There was no need to make Crinos the mentally unstable murdergooner form even more than it was. Mages already have to deal with Paradox for trying to be superheroes as well as the attention of things that are looking for them, Wraith is depressing enough etc. Yes you can play these stats as X but Superhero, but the game has enough avenues to punish disregarding your needs like that without trying to give the player CBT for existing. Some might say that a riskier system is more fun to engage with and forces players to actually balance spending resources, which is fair enough a take. I personally just think it's very against player agency and ruins the fantasy of vampire if you're forced to feed almost every day. The logistics of that just don't add up to me, a vampire is like a capable social predator and I can't see that panning out if they have to spend effort trying to feed daily while maintaining the masquerade and doing their weird politics.
We have all experienced the coming and going so GMs, Players and games; and then left holding the bag too start all over again at Square One. If and when you have to start over from scratch how and where (online) would you start I'll look for groups and games?There has been numerous reasons that would force someone to start all over again be it scheduling, life, work, people changing.
>>97349305I play with my friends rather than randos, so I've never had to experience this and likely won't ever have to experience this since all of my friends have lives and work jobs and we play around their schedules.If I ever reached that point I'd probably just drop the hobby all together, because I'm not here for MUH COMMUNITY or MUH HOBBY or whatever collectivist garbage you faggots whine about, I'm here to play a game with my friends.>>97349886>Not having friendsWhat's it like being a miserable misanthrope?
Start over in current year? I don't. I take one look at the low quality garbage that focuses entirely on pandering and realize its not a good hobby.
>>97350211Only if you are friendless loser that any actual table would vet out right before even meeting for the first game. Which is part of the reason why nobody sane wants to play online - the only players out there are (You)s
>>97349305Unironically Critical Role, get hyped, join a game, isn't what I expected, learn to love it anyway: Is how I think it would go.
>>97386118Looks like we have a no games in the thread.
I know GW shills are gonna be mad after reading this, but... when did you realize that busy, overdesigned models are NOT fun to paint and that miniature design peaked 20 years ago?
It's hard to say it's an exclusively GW thing when most 3d modellers put even more detail than GW on their models. There's definitely demand for it.
>>97393423some models are bit much these days.but a lot of them are just really good and much better than anything they could do before. the new CSM legionaries are much better than the old ones. GSC Neophytes look better than any plastic kit they had back in the day.
it only bothers me when it's the basic footsloggersalso designs 20 years ago were busy as fuck too as much as fakegrogs like to pretend otherwise
Painting the rogal dorn tank was no fun for me because of all the details, also meant there was no room for decals. Felt very restrictive.
>>97393423as someone starting out i feel like the heavily trimmed and detailed models make it more difficult to learn the basics like blending and volumetric highlighting because every surface is broken up and the small details don't leave enough room for a beginner to grow beyond a simple shade&highlight. i like the plain primaris marines for this reason, lots of large simple surfaces for me to practice the basics. i'm building a rather plain contemptor dreadnought for that same reason.
Some /tg/-related funny images and comics. YMMV.
>>97392929
What's with all the watermarked images newfag
Tabletop RPGs tend to split up crafting into a high number of crafting subskills for every individual area of expertise. There's no question that crafting is still extremely powerful despite forcing you to go through this hassle, but what are your thoughts on which particular crafting subskills tend to be the most useful in the context of a TTRPG campaign, be it a medieval or modern or sci-fi setting?Pic related is from Legend of the Five Rings, where I'll be playing a crafter soon, and I intend to invest heavily into crafting. But feel free to talk about any game you've had experience with.
>>97391223PP is a microgame, I'm talking real systems with big huge extensive rules
>>97391550Don't pretend to be me, even if you do represent my opinion correctly.
>>97390895Do warships not translate directly into power there?
>>97393103Not in the same way that more plusses on your sword does, and I think you already know that.
>>97392819Sorry. It's just funnier if he thinks it's coming from a place if genuine interest.

>>97364980Liver rook takes are good unless you've got something else available. Generally if I could get a check in a move or two I would hold the knight but without the foresight to follow up you're just missing out on a free rook. Under 1000 elo I'd say take the rook unless you're happy to choke a game while you learn more. Oddly, puzzles can be good for this kind of thing as well.Looking at it (god I wish we could pause these) you could have also checked with Bf7 then moved your queen up but black would likely have taken Qxh8 and recovered material without a solid follow through. It's hard knowing how good your opponent can see into the future.>>97374646>lichess>full of classless faggots>must be the Russians againFunny, I don't see this happen on chess.com.

>>97391768I love that>If transferring the fetus from a woman's womb to an artificial uterus is possible, the choice to terminate a pregnancy in this way could provide an alternative to aborting the fetusis being presented as some kind of knotty ethical dilemma.Like I support abortion rights even though I'm less keen on the ethics of it because I believe in bodily autonomy, but how can providing an alternative that wouldn't require terminating a pregnancy be a bad thing? A suspicious person might think women are simply horrified at the notion parental rights might be fully equalized and a father could choose to continue a pregnancy by artificial means over the mother's objections and then saddle her with child support for it...
>>97392806I'm finna piss on that cuck's grave one day, on God
>>97391985Okay, now subtract theatre take(~40%), production costs(a billie), and marketing costs(another billie) - so generously the Disney Trilogy made a half billion in profit. Let's ignore the countless landfills full of discarded unwanted Sequel merch around the world and pretend that brought in the same, giving them a billion total profit. In ten years. From an IP they paid *4 billion* to own. An IP they bought on the understanding it would remain what it had always previously been: a license to print money.Anyone who believes that's a success, that it's even remotely what Disney envisioned when they purchased the IP, or that it isn't a colossal failure and mismanagement is just a fucking retard. An actual, clinical, special needs type motherfucker.Oh and don't try to invoke Disney+, which has cost them 10 billion in losses since its inception, only became profitable in 2024, and since then has only generated a few hundred million in profit from their *entire* catalogue(and you can guarantee ~90% of their subs are coming from parents wanting to plonk their kids in front of Princess movies so Star Wars has fuck all to do with it).
>>97391003>Do they really think female Custodians are going to bring in a massive amount of new fans and new money?Yes, it doesn't really matter what it's the logic behind the decision someone convinced someone else that this is a financially good decision and the rest is history.Whatever it does bring money or not doesn't matter, what matters is that right now they think that it could bring money.And if you think that GW wouldn't destroy everything that they have built before for a chance to make more money I suggest you to look at what happened with fantasy
>>97392791Just mildly irritated by the debasement of the ip. I'd already stopped buying their minis when they did the "Warhammer is for everyone" bullshit.

>>97393523What I want definitely fits the setting. Whitewall's one of the major powers of the North and one of the great cities of Creation - it being bigger than Chanta, but not bigger than Halta as a whole, doesn't seem like a problem on any level. Neither does Halta having population comparable to the Haslanti League. In fact, Halta and the Haslanti having comparable numbers seems just about right to me. Both are big deals in their parts of the world but not Direction-wide, and both are advanced civilizations thriving in conditions where one generally wouldn't expect civilization to thrive. Them being roughly equally populous and powerful is fine. As for Kirighast, I didn't address it because I didn't feel like complaining about another nation's numbers. I'll just say that Halta's not the only instance of WW writers showing poor sense of scale and absolutely no consideration for the fact that Creation's not the 21st century world. East generally has pretty sensible population numbers, though, with Great Forks being a big deal with its three quarters of a million inhabitants and so on. Linowan, too, are perfectly sensible, with population of Rubylak being counted in tens of thousands rather than hundreds of thousands. Halta in 1E and 2E is grossly out of scale with its surroundings, and what I'm suggesting would make it a better fit, not a worse one, for the rest of the East.
>>97393576>Both are big deals in their parts of the world but not Direction-wide>The Haslanti League and Halta
>>97393584Yes, anon. Haslanti's fuckhuge area-wise and respectable population-wise, it's got major cities, it's technologically advanced, it might not matter that much to be a big deal in that part of the world because Far North doesn't have that much going on, but it's still a big deal. Haslanti are also more active and therefore more have more of an impact outside their own borders than the Haltan are.
>>97393592
>>97393576Anon... nothing actually fits the setting, not even the titular exalted, the setting setting is a thrown together mess only kept together by the promise of "epic fantasy involving demigods".Trying to find logic in it will drive you insane, since the writers aren't structuralists, they are pantsters.

Do you read the source material or just let some e-celeb yawn on about whatever garbage they want to spin?
>>97389434That's just a true statement, I am very certain a point was to make sure you can't. By default, a "full-round action" to move in 2e is far more freeing, if less multiplicative than a full Run/Charge in 1e. But I also think neither game was ever trying to be Exalted, there are diminishing returns to high degrees of athleticism on both player and GM. You can only make a mountain so high, especially for the one person that builds for it in your campaign. And unless you houserule how move actions work to work like they do in D&D5e, you not only waste all your additional movement as you can't skirmish, you lose out on other full-round actions.Nothing in 2e is supposed to be as easy to accomplish in 1e. Either it is meant to be more an investment to compensate for the streamlining of core systems, or not applicable at all because they are two different games and have two different balancing points.

So my DND group was kind of disolving, 2 out of the 4 players left because of life issues (one got a job abroad and the other one is dealing with life), to keep playing we incorporated 2 new players with not so much experience but avid watchers of Critical Role.One of these player conditions was that we incorporate x cards to the game, she says that it makes it much more comfortable for her to know she can avoid unpleasant story elements having this tool.
