Obviously running mass land destruction with randoms would be a stupid idea, but are a handful of single target land destruction effects too salty for LGS pods?
>>97216730>TQI scoop if I'm not having fun.If I'm playing a janky bracket 1 shitpile, we had the turn 0 talk, and still every silly little thing is getting spot-removaled, I'm leaving.If I'm getting archenemy'd, don't have the means to handle it in my deck, and someone else is clearly the bigger threat, I shouldn't have to constantly switch between being the group archenemy and the group punching bag.If I'm playing a three color deck, and my landbase is only three lands by turn 7, I'm not going to hope that luck finally stops spitting on me.If you've casted 10 spells for your turn, and you have the boardstate to do this type of vomit again and again, then I'm not interested.Magic is supposed to be fun. If I'm not having fun, then there is no point.

What game, in your opinion, has the greatest potential for ruining friendships? What game turns your friends into a bunch of Mr. Hyde assholes that start swinging?
>>97221035If Twilight Imperium is the worst you had, you have shitty friends, not played the bad game.t. always in alliance with my mate, never backstab each other and carry each other toward victory (which either of us then easily scores)
>>97221035Bonk, apparently.I gave some games to a buddy who is a teacher for a board gaming club he started for students. Bonk had to be banned because it caused fights every time it was played.Bonk is a game for 2 or 4 players. You rotate ramps on your side to drop metal balls onto the field. You use the metal balls to knock a wooden ball into your opponents goal.There are only a handful of metal balls, so if you spam them, they go across the board and now your opponent has those balls and can take their time setting up shots until some metal balls make it to your side.This, as it turns out, is a mechanic that leads to autistic rage and a lot of board game players are somewhat autistic to begin with. 2 players? Not much of an issue. You get four players and your partner is a ball spamming dipshit or sucks at hitting the target? It takes a shockingly short amount of time before that Tism kicks in. Violently. Especially among children with zero impulse control.
>>97221035The only friendship destruction is the loss of faith they have in you when you're 9 hours in and the game isn't good yet.

>>97217497>AIDS of smegma, being the confluence of Chinese gatcha games and world of warcraftAs >>97222118 points out, this is how we know you don't know what you're talking about. Get better talking points, it's not 2013 anymore.And before you even say it, yes. There's a ton of trash in gacha. Some might even say the "good" games are trash. But Gacha still has gems, or even simply designs that make you feel something. That's the tragedy. Gacha might be a painted-up whore with huge fake tits, but that's a hell of a lot better than what the West is offering.
>>97222423>something something as war rages it nulls the sexuality in the individualThat's completely wrong, you absolute retard. People reproduce MORE in times of strife and duress, plenty of soldiers experience "battle boners" due to surges of adrenaline, and the battlefield itself is a hotbed of rape of enemy civilians and combatants alike.
>>97169839In a traditional gaming sense, white women want to go black instinctually, for their big cocks or their dominant genes. We just have to create the best societal setting for them to feel that only choosing black men as partners is a social benefit. I think the media should begin demeaning young white men as a group so that they lose confidence and attractiveness as mates to white women. They could do this by showing fake statistics about unemployment among young white men, increased levels of celibacy, and maybe even coincide this with the rise of cuckold porn in Gen Z. Could also try to plant seeds on social media of women talking about these new facts coming out about white men and why they're moving to black men. This would create a community of women moving away from white men, increasing the amount of celibate white dudes and the overall consumption of BNWO content, and black dudes getting most of the women. From there to get a real BNWO where only black guys get pussy the discrimination against white men would have to get so bad that the government puts laws are put in place banning white men from procreating (in the sense of traditional gaming).

>>97221975There's this idea that there's a barrier to popularity in complexity; and that the simpler a game is the more money it's going to make. Not only is this completely wrong, they're often stupidly tearing out most of the interesting systems and mechanics and leaving behind dull ones because they weren't complicated.RED thankfully didn't make this mistake, not entirely. It's simpler, but there's plenty going on to keep people interested without also being in modifier hell (though I feel a lot of GMs I've played with are terrified of applying circumstantial modifiers, so it's whatever). There are other flaws in the system, but the bones are good and you can build it up where it needs bulk.
>>97222039tbf Red does try it's hand at more narrative style gameplay. Rockerboy and Media have very wishy washy abilities open to interpretation.Also Red does try to limit crunch by making the combat and character building very simple.
>>97222172Well those are two roles that would be very unsatisfying if you made them much more granular. That said they're not quite as insubstantial as they seem.Charismatic Impact is actually crunchier than it might immediately appear; I just find GMs don't tend to pay enough attention and can sometimes make it work like mind control. Broadly its a way to scattershot assistance wherever you go; unlike Backup or an Exec's Teamwork, you can run into fans anywhere and you don't have to drag them with you. Even at rank 4 there's more going on than it would appear: Being able to play at well known Clubs necessarily gets you into all the well known club, and you're one rank away from necessarily being able to play (and thus enter) any club that's not explicitly exclusive. Otherwise you're building effectively a contact list as you make fans and can shake them down weekly (figuratively) for favors, which has the rules breakdown of "I have an ever increasing pool of NPCs that I get a favorable social roll on to just have them do shit for me". Use that smartly, and you're going to have the rockstar treatment wherever you go in the most literal sense of the word.Similarly, Credibility has some bite to it if the GM will just play it right. Passive rumors go automatically, so the GM should be keeping you connected and assuming he's not feeding you bullshit intentionally, something is going to be useful. Even if it's not, publishing can work a variety of ways to your advantage more than just having a magazine. You can 'publish' to individual people or organizations and what you publish doesn't even need to be true. It's definitely more fluffy than all the others and more nebulous than Charismatic Impact though.
>>97215169How the hell does this thing fly?>>97222245A good Referee can make Credibility the most influential ability in the game.
>>97222245It's not about being "granular," it's about giving those roles something to do outside of their vague ass narrative powers.

>>97221951You absolutely want a pin vice. Having something like a Dremel or other small power drill on top of that is nice, but far less of a priority.
Why is it that so many fantasy writers make their evil cults unjoinable by anyone with a functioning brain cell? Like why would you worship Orcus, whose goal is omnicide? Why would you worship Tzeentch if he’s probably gonna screw YOU over as part of his grand plan?What makes it so bizarre to me is that, firstly, it’s not like they need to be so off-putting to be evil. Orcus is a demon of undeath, his followers want to turn their enemies into the undead. Tzeentch wants the world to be in a constant cycle of chaos, his followers are gonna be masterminding world wars.Secondly, it’s not like we don’t have plenty of examples of real-world evil cults. A lot of cults in the West don’t follow Super-Duper-Mega-Murder Satan, but are fucked-up offshoots of Christianity. Historically, goetia was practiced by people who would’ve still called themselves Christians, while committing rituals to summon and get boons from demons. Plenty of human cultures used to sacrifice humans to their gods, not to summon them to kill everyone or some shit, but to honor and/or appease them.Like to use another example from Warhammer, I think Nurgle and Khorne present more “approachable” evil cults. Nurgle is toxic positivity, and his love will take all the pain away. Khorne is wrapped up in enough language about honor to lure people in.Like to rework an evil deity, let’s pick Lamashtu. Instead of “We love ugliness and miscarriages and also you get to die in childbirth”, the cult targets vulnerable young women and lures them in with divine feminine language (“You have the power to bear and raise great beasts”), while promising the young men of monstrous races frustrated living among humans that what they’re scorned for is what makes them powerful (and also they get to have sex with pretty girls).
>>97160877As someone from a third world shithole I would unironically appeal to Tzeentch if that meant a plausible way to tear down the people in power here and change the general culture of the people around here
>>97206207Yeah, makes the whole chaos cult thing seem reasonable. A prospective cultist suffering from insecurities to delusions wold easily fall for the whole "There's nothing wrong with you, it's the world that has to change!" drivel that these types cling on to for dear life.
>>97207451The Chaos Gods draw power from pretty much any emotion, good or evil, but in its concentrated form, the Warp always takes things to extremes, so pretty much the only time you get "good" aspects of Chaos is in cultures that have minimal exposure to the Warp

>>97222409>you won't be prepared for when players do the unexpectedWhat players can do will ideally be covered by the rules of the game (see: "the character creation and progression options, the challenges they face, and the mechanics associated with the game structure" that you ignored).If not, that's on you for choosing (or making) a poorly designed game; it does not suddenly make worldbuilding more important to a game than it actually is.>making contradictory and disjointed decisions that don't fit what's already been offeredA well-designed game won't contradict itself in how it runs. When choosing or making a game, make sure it is clear about what can be done with it. "Games" that don't have mechanics beyond "ask your storyteller" are more likely to be disjointed than something with airtight rules.>when we're flying by the seat of our pants due to lack of appropriate forethought into the world"Flying by the seat of your pants" is the consequence of a poorly designed game, or a system that isn't even a game at all.When there's proper forethought in the mechanics, everything else falls into place.Perhaps try designing a game to run, instead of trying to write novels or performing improv theater. You'll realize that games don't need as much masturbatory worldbuilding when you do.But once again, you just want to have your off-topic collaborative writing with impunity, despite there being multiple other places for you to plop out your shit.

>>97217789>The idea of a gnoll working in forge with that fur next to burning fires, sounds like a safety hazard about to happenTrue, but at that point you'd need to question how safe it is for Dwarves too, considering they're generally depicted as both master smiths and having huge beards. Having metal rings and beads braided in those big beards probably wouldn't help either.
>>97217789>>97222374Shrimple. Dwarves and most furred races capable of metalsmithing will put fire-retardant conditioning in their hair/fur.The gnoll working alongside a dwarf would likely adopt this from his dwarven friend because gnolls probably don't have a sophisticated metalworking culture (though they might, in this particular setting..). Most other Gnolls would note that he smells faintly of dwarf in a more complete manner than the "hung out with dwarves" way.
