Boo is portable, doesn't speak allowing for the player to do all his roleplaying, won't sway the tide of battle, can be used to occasionally pull the characters out of a tight spot through taking small objects that are plot relevant. He also comes complete with plot hooks from his species that you can quietly ignore if you want, because Cameron Tofer was drinking hand sanitiser when he wrote the character up.

Giant miniature space hamsters are the perfect sidekick.

It depends on the game and how the sidekick is designed for the game, how effective is compared to the other options.

Why can’t you enjoy a silly thread ?

>>94753761
i don't get it either, tg has always discussed generic topics related to tabletop, but a few years back zoomers suddenly decided that discussing things is only allowed if you're talking about a specific game

it's like there was a legion of shitposters on v and vg that constantly whined if you started talking about fps games versus tps games, discussed mouse and keyboard versus controller, wanted to talk about voice actors that have been in games, or whatever the fuck else that's obviously related to games even if it isn't about a specific game

this feels like random bias, a generic discussion about things commonly found in tabletop games is tg related for the same reason a generic discussion about things commonly found in video games is v or vg related

for example, the things a group of people playing dnd eats while playing is not the same as a discussion about animal companions that are commonly featured across many different tg games, including but not at all limited to dnd, yet the shitposters crawl from under their rocks for them anyway

>>94757622
>>94758324
furthermore, if anything tg should be way more permissive about shit like this, not less, because it's way more common for tg to homebrew than for v to actually make a game or mod

Not grumpier than any other wild animal, they seem extra grumpy to us because they look almost like housecats, but the latter spent several thousand years living next to humans, which caused them to develop human-like mannerisms that we like.

You're comparing discussion of game mechanics - even generic ones - to discussion of vague faffery. Of this was a thread about whether 3d6 or d20 or whether roll over or roll under are better dice resolution mechanics, or if card based TRPGs are more fun than dice-based TRPGs, or hell even something like "wjere do you draw the line between TRPG, wargame, and board game" then maybe you'd have a point.

But that's not what this thread is, it's just an incredibly unsubtle /an/ thread with zero grounding in traditional games.
>the things a group of people playing dnd eats while playing is not the same as a discussion about animal companions that are commonly featured across many different tg games
Where did ANY mechanical TRPG discussion AT ALL in this thread? There was mone, because the OP is too vague to have any actual discussion on. The answer to OP is unironically "depends on the setting/system/set-up of the party" because of all the fucking variables.

You'd know this if you played games instead of vagueposted about "le worldbuilding" and shit.

bruh, animal companions are incredibly common in tabletop and if you're honestly making this argument you have to be either in an altered mental state or knowingly lying

>Where did ANY mechanical
why the fuck would it need to have any specific mechanics? traditional games aren't 100% mechanics, the entire rpg genre would be completely worthless in that case and all you'd be left with are old school card games and chess

>Or how about you just discuss traditional games instead? It's not fucking hard.
you're right, it's not, that's why this thread is doing it so easily

>>94758420
>tg gets people screaming what system and no games in threads exactly like that
Prove it.
>animal companions are incredibly common in tabletop
And the form, function, mechanics, rarity etc vary so wildly that "best" DEPENDS ON THE FUCKING SYSTEM/SETTING to the point it's impossible to have a real conversation about it. You know, as I'd already said.

Read, you illiterate mongrel bastard son of a dockside whore and a disreputable donkey thief.
>why the fuck would it need to have any specific mechanics?
Why the fuck would a discussion about the best animal companion in ANY setting/system NOT include mechanics or party composition, you fucking retard? An old but sturdy mule is a far better animal companion than a war hound in a game of Ryuutama, whereas the opposite is true if we're playing Mordheim. And neither animal even exists if we're playing Edge of the Empire. This shit matters and your unwillingness to actually name (or play) a traditional game is why this thread fucking sucks and is offtopic.

bonus question: how old are you?

>Thanks for admitting you never wanted to actually discuss traditional games because you have no experience to draw from
when it comes to rpgs i have plenty, i've played three separate editions of dnd and also pathfinder, two editions of exalted, a bunch of different titles spread across different editions of owod and nwod, a ton of homebrew, and a bunch of smaller/joke shit like paranoia

maybe your problem is that you're only thinking of a single system due to your own inexperience, and want everything to be about it?

>It's specifically not a traditional games thread at all.
why not? as has been pointed out to you multiple times, the fluff is an integral part of an rpg, so a fluff thread about things that are commonly and easily featured in rpgs is automatically tg

what's your argument to the contrary?

>The problem is you seem to think you're on /an/ or /lit/ instead of /tg/

>you're only thinking of a single system due to your own inexperience
Cute that you try to pull a playground tier "I know you are but what am I?!" right after asking my age, but I've already named three systems where animal companions take on completely different form and function. Further proof you're reading comprehension is shit. Hell, you're even repeating my own points back to me (systems/settings are so broadly different that OP's question is functionally worthless) as if it's something you came up with and as if it somehow isn't a point in my favor.

Are you genuinely learning disabled or something? Do I need to put more of my posts in allcaps for you to understand?
>why not?
Because the discussion isn't about traditional games, it's about how much you like turtles. It's no different than "what's the best vintage of wine to drink during party downtime?"
>those boards aren't appropriate for traditonal games discussions
And you've already stated you don't want to discuss traditional games.

>what's your argument to the contrary?

i'm 36, how about you? or at least, how long have you been on tg? i'm not going to make an argument based on age here, i'm just wondering what demographic you belong to, since you smell like such a tourist

>I've already named three systems where animal companions take on completely different form and function.
i didn't ask you to name systems where animal companions exist, i asked you what systems you played

or rather, i mirrored your own fallacious question back at you, to which you responded by being deeply offended, lmao

>Because the discussion isn't about traditional games, it's about how much you like turtles.
that's fluff that relates to common themes in rpgs and therefore how much you like turtles over other animals is tg related

>It's no different than "what's the best vintage of wine to drink during party downtime?"
wine isn't a common major feature of rpgs or any other traditional game as far as i know, so you're entirely wrong on this

>>94758544
I covered it in the rest of my post but since you're too ESL/brainrotted to figure it out, I'll spell it out for you again:
>as has been pointed out to you multiple times, the fluff is an integral part of an rpg
I was the one who pointed this out to you, dipshit. God your reading comprehension is just trash.
>so a fluff thread about things that are commonly and easily featured in rpgs
I also pointed out that le heckin pupperinos or memelotls aren't commonly or easily featured in all RPGs and some other animals are exclusive to other settings.
>is automatically tg

>or at least, how long have you been on tg?

>i mirrored your own fallacious question back at you
With all the clarity of a cracked and dusty funhouse mirror. You really do have trouble with basic English, don't you?
>to which you responded by being deeply offended
I'm just pointing out how many times you've failed to address a single point or even just comprehend English correctly. If you're reading offense from that then perhaps the issue is a little bit of projected random bias on your end.
>that's fluff that relates to common themes in rpgs
Just like wine during downtime relates to common themes in rpgs like rests, consuming rations, or dinking liquids imbued with unique properties. It's just as relevant as you blithering on about a news article about a horny crane that has nothing to do with TRPGs.

Funny how you failed to prove any of your previous assertions too. Don't think I didn't catch you trying to squirm out of that shit.

>>94758593
>I also pointed out that le heckin pupperinos or memelotls aren't commonly or easily featured in all RPGs
really? all of the ones i mentioned earlier feature them, can you name 5 distinct rpgs that don't?

>"Elves are commonly featured in some but not all traditional games, therefor elf porn is automatically tg"
remove the word porn and it's true, but that's just because porn is often extremely superficial, a lot of actual porn that features elves and also other tg elements would also be automatically tg related, just not postable on tg due to being nsfw

>Since 2010.
eh, at this point i probably need to stop thinking of you as a newfag, even if i still have the instinct to do so, it would help if you acted less like one

do you even remember old tg, considering how diametrically opposed you seem to be to it?

>Ironic.
2007 on my end, anon

>With all the clarity of a cracked and dusty funhouse mirror.
does it need clarity? you made a shallow ad hominem "no gaems" argument at me, i made it back at you, do you really expect me to put more effort than half a sentence into it?

>Just like wine during downtime relates to common themes in rpgs like rests
no, that's at least one extra step, and even then it's not mentioned very often

meanwhile what animal is the best idea for an animal companion directly relates to the topic without any extra steps, and furthermore the topic of animals also deeply relates to other common rpg features, like hostile animals you fight as an adventurer, animal-themed races the furries insist on dumping into every setting, and more

>Funny how you failed to prove any of your previous assertions too.
my only assertion was that fluff is directly related to rpgs, which you have done two things about, first you sidestepped it by ignoring it, and after that you claimed that you made that point yourself in order to again ignore it

i'm content in being proven right simply by how you refuse to engage with the point

That don't feature axolotls? Practically all of them. But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you mean dogs. In which case:
Any Star Wars RPG (that's 5 right there but I'll keep going so you don't throw a tanty)
Cosmere RPG
Fragged Space
Any 40K RPG (closest you'll get is Cybermastiff rules in a WanG supplement)
Ventangle (technically exist, but there's no rules for them unless you futz with either the Slave rules or the Mount weapon)
Princess Wing (also exist but no rules for them, though I think a supplement offers robotic animal companions)
Nechronica, unless it's specifically a zombie dog
Embryo Machine arguably, since it doesn't actually take place on earth iirc

I could keep going, but the point is saying "dogs are automatically /tg/ so any discussion of then automatically is /tg/ related" is fucking retarded
>remove the word porn and it's true

>it would help if you acted less like one

It's more /tg/ related than the rest of the thread.

After all, autistic rules lawyering occurs in traditional games, therefore all autistic rules lawyering discussions are automatically /tg/

>>94758790
not quite, a discussion about rules lawyering in general is always tg related, a discussion about a specific case of rules lawyering can be tg related if it happened as part of a traditional game, and active rules lawyering as opposed to the discussion of rules lawyering is not tg related unless it's rules lawyering about rules that are for some other reason related to traditional games

In that case yeah, there's plenty of games without rules for animal companions. Especially if we take all traditional games into account and not just TRPGs as you're so fixated on.
>since it's featured in more or less all rpgs as a mechanic
It's really, really not. Hell, I can even name a few like Tokyo Nova that allow you to buy animals but have zero mechanical function of doing so, making it a pointless moneysink purely for fluff.

Furthermore, unlike animal companions all trpgs DO feature consumable goods, therefore discussing wine vintages is more /tg/ related than this thread by your very own metric.

Good job sidestepping and ignoring half my post again despite JUST accusing me of doing the same though. Very cool.

I've pointed out multiple times that the answer is "it depends heavily on the system/setting, making all setting-agnostic discussion off-topic shitposting since it will never once actually mwntion traditional games of any atripe or variety" and now you're apparently agreeing with that fact.

As well you should, since of this whole thread the only time ANY traditional games have been mentioned it's either been by me or in response to me. Another fact you conveniently sidestepped and ignored, btw.

you haven't proven a single thing other than that you randomly consider fluff threads off-topic even when they're about extremely common rpg elements, to the point where you continue coming back to mechanics over and over even when mechanics are entirely irrelevant to this thread or to whether a topic is tg-related or not

and if you feel like you're talking to a child it's probably because i'm talking to you like you are a child, once we go through about two or three cycles of repeating the same conversation while still getting to the same conclusion it's better to reduce effort

The fact that you have to abstract it out this broadly only proves me right. It's as "fluff relevant" as a debate on the best wine. Yes I'm bringing wine up again because you always fail to refute it and instead try to change the subject.

no it doesn't, you can't randomly ignore a fact because you think it's abstract, there's nothing against abstractness on either the global or tg-specific rules

Ironic.
>because you think it's abstract
I'm not ignoring shit, I'm pointing out this is an offtopic /an/ thread because the point is to discuss animals amd NOT to discuss animals in regards to how they pertain to traditional games eother generally or specifically. To which your response has been some variation of "discussing real world news about animals is /tg/ related because traditional games sometimes feature animals and occasionally even have mechanics related to them", which is a beyond-inane justification on par with the original GAYMER SNAX comparison.

Which just tells me you don't actually WANT to discuss traditional games, you just want to blogpost about animals you think are neat.

>>94759064
well clearly you have autism, because the point of the thread is to discuss animal companions in regards to how they pertain to traditional games, maybe the "animal companions" part of the common phrase should have clued you in, retard

this is like you whined that a sword thread is unrelated to tg because nobody pointed out it's a sword meant for adventuring, all the while it actually was spelled out that it's for adventuring in the op

this is like at least three different layers of retardation right here in the first half of the first sentence you just posted, for fuck's sake anon

>>94758399
>to discussion of vague faffery.
That used to be the core of /tg/, and it was better for it.

>>94759085
it still is

>>94759114
i can agree with that

hell we even celebrated it, the most retarded threads would always get good content in them if you scrolled down

>>94759085
It sounds like you don't actually enjoy discussing traditional games. So why are you on the traditional games board?

>>94759081
>well clearly you have autism
You're really just throwing whatever you can against the wall to see what sticks, aren't you?
>this is like you whined that a sword thread is unrelated to tg because nobody pointed out it's a sword meant for adventuring, all the while it actually was spelled out that it's for adventuring in the op
If you asked "what sword is best" woth zero context, I'd certainly have to say "depends on a whole host of factors that are determined by the system/setting", yes. Hell, just determining whether you mean for trpgs, wargames, or board games is already a level of traditional games discussion you and this thread's OP are adamantly refusing to do because apparently it offends you or is "too autistic".
>this is like at least three different layers of retardation right here
Ironic.

>>94759125
I genuinely believe that when Bill Murray failed to beat the dread Lichnomancer at b-ball was the day /tg/ started going downhill. He was battling for the soul of /tg/, and lost, and we've all been in the skeletal grip of the Lichnomancer ever since.

The threads always had retards you just ignored them and didn't take the bait.

>>94759578
I am very worried that the posts in /tg/ are human and not AI.

If you forbid talking about a subject, that topic is going to creep its way into other conversations.

Grape-kun had a mate and a chick, but when the zoo took the chick away, their relationship deteriorated and Grape-kun was ultimately rejected by his group. He was very old at this point, and was a lonely outcast that likely formed a bond with the cutout because the other penguins avoided him.

Is that why you are breaking down over people trying to actually discuss traditional games?

Final fantasy figured this out a while ago. Giant bird companion that doubles as a mount and a companion that can kick the shit out of any goblin that threatens you. There’s also the option to add equitable metal talons

>Why is this thread triggering people
A lot of anons consider themselves to be "/tg/ users" rather than "people who play tabletop games", and feel that they need to curate the board to keep it in line with their sensibilities as /tg/ users.

Wasn't there a TV show back in the 80's about a detective and his pet boa constrictor?
