This is what real leadership looks like in the ttrpg community!
>>96762449>This is what real leadership looks like in the ttrpg community!Yeah that's cool, hey I'm going to use this anime art of a teenage girl with huge breasts for my character.
>>96762449But it always looks the same lol It's just the same picture over and over againIt's funny because some people have that theatrical energy they can't wait to share but for me the process is seeing where the hexes and dice take me.
>>96762449*rips a nasty greasy pepperoni fart down your throat*
>>96762449Honest question, and this isn't me being rhetorical or facetious or whatever. Does anyone have the last time there was DnD art with a prominent, or even just visible, WM/WF couple? Like, I can definitely call up men who had dead wives, or women with dead husbands, or any combination of "man who had a woman / woman who had a man and is now denied their presence," but I can't remember an actual, bonafide WMWF couple.
>>96762449Even if I was the target audience for this, it looks really boring. D&D is about walking around a marketplace with your lover while looking weird?Also that is the fruitiest beholder I've ever seen, and I've seen one painted like a rainbow.
>>96762449That's an old picture tho. It's from 2024.
>>96762449I'm glad I switched to Dragonbane
>>96762449lol
>>96762603From what I've heard that book would work much better if Breezy was an immature and rebellious teen, but she just acts like an an immature and rebellious teen.Makes me wonder if she was supposed to be a teenage girl originally and was just aged up late in the process when story was practically done already.
>>96762449The digital slop artstyle wouldn't even be bad if it made you want to play the game.Who the fuck sees that and thinks "wow I want to purchase and play Dungeons and Dragons!"?At least with the older art it stimulates the imagination. I want to play that character killing that demon finding out who those mystery niggas are and what's in that tower
>>96762533It’s all a horrific illusion enforced by the Beholder. It’s actually killing them all very slowly.
Oh no, guess I'll keep playing 3.5
>>96762449You know, unless your story wants any amount of moral ambiguity or to be set in a world that isn't just the greater Seattle area with a thin veneer of fantasy cartoon aesthetics.
Why do they do this?
>>96762775The more gritty fantasy aesthetic is marketing to young boys with little purchasing power, the lame and gay fantasy aesthetic is marketing to unstable adults who spend a lot of money on lifestyle products.
>>96762810same kek
S0i
>>96762449My group has three trannies, two Jews, a gypsy, a mulatto, and a spic. This shit doesn't appeal to any of us.
>>96762449What does one even call this...aesthetic?
>>96762542>2024>old
>>96762449>Grow up playing a game for dweebs, dorks, outcasts and nerds>It suddenly gets popular>Shitlords on the internet lose their minds because it's welcoming to minorities and marginalized communities.Eat a bag of dicks. The gays were always welcome. We played VtM, for fuck's sake.
>>96762835I remember playing this in the early 90s. Willis, the kid I played it with for days and days, is happily married to a man. Saw him five years or so ago.
>>96763001Californiacore.
>>96762775>Posts disgusting woke haircut
>>96762449The dragon in this pic has the right idea. Leaving.
>>96763015It's not catering to niggers and faggots (believe me, I would know).>Are you a nigger or a faggot?A bit of both, but that's not important here. What IS important is that it's catering to the same people who were bullying you for being a dweeb and now that they're "adults" have found themselves an easy cause to gather around and continue bullying under the guise of virtue signaling.
>>96762449What kind of stories are told with aesthetics like this?Can you tell us?
>>96763075Making a living as an oppressed transgender tiefling working as a barista in a coffee shop in a D&D city which exactly matches the demographic proportions of downtown Seattle.
>>96763071Ah, did the big bad tweet oppress you?An entire bag of dicks.
>>96763071I've been never been bullied by homos, nor trannies. And YOU, Anon? Did Billy the Cocksucker bully you when you were a young little bitch? Did Sally the Butch laugh at your lil cock? Did a bunch of gender freaks beat the fuck out of you and steal your lunch AND masculine pronouns?
>>96763075>What kind of stories are told with aesthetics like this?Google Folsom Street Fair for an example, kind of gay but it represents modern D&D. Related module is Dore Alley.
>>96763183There used to be a beautiful antique book store right on the corner of the fair. They sold the French cigarettes I liked (Gitanes), until California outlawed them because the paper isn't self-extinguishing. Good times. Pride parades are fun for straight people too, anon. Drop by one, some time.
>>96763015We get it, ur gayGo back to vtm
>>96763219Nah we're playing Dark Sun, right now.
>>96762988my condolences
I have a question.They know it's mostly dudes who play D&D, right? Their core audience is guys, who like blood and titties and hate homos.So why are they so reluctant to give people what they want? I mean, it's not difficult. Gacha games prove that sex sells, and games like CoD prove that kids love fantasy violence.Is it so hard to give their main audience what they want? If I want a burger, why are you trying to feed me tofu, when I'm paying for a burger?
>>96762449Faggot saturation aside it just looks lame, what the hell are they thinking? What baby shit soft dweeb needs THIS amount of safeness?
>>96763183So, your characters go to a street party, and you describe them mingling with people and shit?Sorry, that doesn't sound very engaging at all.
>>96763253D&D has >50% market share. Maybe you're not the advertising genius you think you are? I dunno anon, ponder it.
>>96763253Plenty of left leaning creatives genuinely believe that tastes and preferences are created by the supply of fiction. They think you like blood and titties because you were given blood and titties, and therefore also think you can be made into liking these aesthetics if they are forced enough. These lefties are basically the one end of "fiction directly affects reality" horseshoe with hysterical conservative moralists being the other.
>>96763263What, you've never once had a session where your players dick around scheming and bargaining for four hours?"Thing happens while in the market square" has been a staple adventure hook since the 80s, anon.
>>96762603>prime opportunity to win both sides with a hot drow waifu that is strong and independent and needs no man>make her appearance mid af>give her daddy issueslol
>>96763298I like when you retards pretend that D&D is suddenly devoid of cheesecake because it showed a picture with the gays.
>>96762449This bait of a shitpost thread wouldn't last an hour if there was any amount of competent moderation in this shit-hole.
>>96763015Gays really have no standards huh? They could have made an image of a badass gay couple kicking ass and taking names instead of that bland shit in the Op. You don't have to be defined by how gay you are.
>>96763362I'm flattered anon, but I'm taken.It's a fucking tweet. That it makes you throw a fit on the internet is a pretty good indicator that yep: visibility is still important.
>>96763318I've played sessions in which everyone dicked around for hours on end, yes.And they were boring.I like to play games, Anon. If you tell me we're going to play a game, then proceed to have me just sit and listen to a bunch of bullshit while I don't get to actually do anything, it's not going to engage me.I don't care how long people have been doing it, it isn't engaging. Listening to an audio book isn't a game.
>>96763385That's a nice little ramble you've got there, anon.But "town sessions" have been a thing as long as we've had D&D. So your playing dumb and pretending you didn't know, so that you can throw a fit about finding out that someone did a gay one, is fucking ridiculous.
>>96763359>This bait of a shitpost thread wouldn't last an hour if there was any amount of competent moderation in this shit-hole.>"waaaaaaah the pedo troons at rpg.net and r/dnd and enworld and bluesky are too repulsive even for me>"I'll go to /tg/">5 minutes later>"waaaaaaah why aren't the jannies here doing what I want!!"
>>96763022Is he a based frotter?
>>96763395>pretending you didn't knowI wasn't pretending anything.I assumed that, with D&D being sold as "the world's greatest TTRPG", there would be some kind of gameplay aspect to this aesthetic they advertised.Listening to lectures has never been a game.Listening to narrations has never been a game.Listening to audio books has never been a game.Cry about it harder, you literal faggot.
>>96763421>I wasn't pretending anything.Then you're a nogames. "Town sessions" are absolutely a staple of ttrpgs. Everyone is familiar with it who plays ttrpgs.
>>96763376cant wait to drag you faggots out of our games with a f150 and some chains Its fag drag time. fuck off and die
>>96763376>yep: visibility is still important.Step 1: Inundate people with shitty artStep 2: ?Step 3: You win the culture war and everyone loves you!What exactly is your plan here chief?
>>96763427>Sees drawing of gays>Threatens to murder peopleAnd you wonder why it's popular. You're literally the reason, anon.
>>96763437If you're curious why visibility remains important, see: >>96763437Ostracizing those people until there aren't any more of them because no one wants to be that unwelcome in the world, just to hold onto their hatred.
>>96762489This is true for my group too, we take art from Danbooru and turn it into tokens or use it as reference material. The usual Western stuff is way too bland.
>>96763437>>96763455Whoop, sorry. I meant "see: >>96763427"Getting those people out of public spaces until there's none left. That's the plan, man.
>>96763337>Cheese cake>Posts flatties
>>96763445yep and you will cause it. time to fucking die aids monkey
>>96763427OP’s art is eye-rolling but it’s not worth the murderous rage you’re displaying on the internet. The solution isn’t to threaten, it’s to offer something better. If people really don’t want big gay art then showing hot straight women would sell, right?
>>96763474Ah, it's sweet of you to lavish all this attention on me, hon. Lemme go ahead and post some more relevant art, so that I keep your interest.
>>96763140>reading comprehensionWhat I'm saying is this shit is mostly perpetuated by relatively well-to-do "normal people" who just see one's identity as way to make more money. Though there's one exception in fields where there's less money around, and it's trannies. These guys will sacrifice anything (starting from their manhood) for a brief rush of power.
>>96763466I have bullied losers like you from my game store and will continue to do so. fags are no longer welcome
>>96762449>not a single woman in the picturewhat did WOTC mean by this?>>96763331By Drow standards, Daddy issues set her apart quite a bit
>>96763480>it’s not worth the murderous rage you’re displayingFuck you yes it is. Killing is the only solution. Your just mad about it because you're going to be one of the ones we kill the day he puts out open ended pardons for ridding the country of your hateful kind.
>>96763337>That>Cheesecake???
>>96763455Ostracizing everyone that isn't gay retarded theater kids hasn't been a profitable strategy so far
>>96763491Don't be like that, anon. Grab your dice bag and take your pencil in-hand. It's time to play some D&D!
>>96763485it will be slow and I will laugh. tick tock faggot. run back to your closet where you belong
>>96763427>anon fantasizes about fags in drag
>>96763502What's that, anon? You're worried I'd leave the ladies out? Nah I gotchu, champ.

>>96763511I know fags are made through child molestation. I wonder if he spoke to you then like you speak now
>>96763523Yeah I'm actually straight, not that it matters. I just fuckin' hate you people.

>>96763566What can I say? Stop making it so easy.
>>96763571You trying to say you'd like to see some hunky men? No problemo, my friend.
>>96763571Why are you insulting Anon's dad out of nowhere? Do you... have something against dads maybe? Wanna talk about it over some tea? My treat.
>>96763455I doubt you're a real homosexual. You're probably a fascist LARPing as homo so more hate them.
>>96763596I already said I'm not, anon. I just hate the people who lose their shit and start threatening violence because they saw a picture of the gays. And bait that easy? I do like fishing.
>>96763589>>96763584you cant make me hate fags any more than I already do. you are sad losers that breed through children. disgusting freaks no more no less.
>>96763613Then why are you posting here instead of killing them? Go on, get busy.
>>96762603Ra Salvatore is such a fucking hack lmao

>>96763622You are not in good company
>>96763013We exist in a new quantum where anyone over 25 is told they're too old to talk to anyone under 25 and anyone under 25 is 'a kid who can't consent' and one year's time is an eternity.
>>96763627Ah, don't say that, anon. My sense of self-worth is so deeply tied to the opinions of the violent little boys in this thread!
*Marlon Wayans*"AH BUTTHOLDER!"
>>96762489Sorry but that story actually isn't yours to tell, our bad
>>96762835Used to play this with another boy alongside Heroquest and Space Crusade. We used to wank each other off all the time...then one day I came over and he wasn't there but his Mum was drinking cask vodka premix and I fingered her while she sucked me off. I started to feel kind of guilty about cumming on the family and started sniffing the panties of my other friend's sister regularly while jerking it. Those smells got me through high school as did our games of 3.5.
>>96763642>little boyslike clockwork
>>96763678Is that your way of saying "stop posting lesbians, I wanna see the dudes?"Yes sir. I love it when you take charge.

>>96763337>Decade old images
>this entire threadYou ever think that the smug gays here are really just /pol/ users doing a reverse psychology psyop kind of trolling to make gays look bad?It would be awful if that isn’t the case and the gay trolls really are like this in validating the negative stereotypes that /pol/ users say about gays here.
>>96763740Obviously wrong. Being gay makes you a bad person, so it only follows that everyone making bad posts is also gay. That's why we have to kill them all.
>>96763740The person shitposting on the thread already admitted to not being an actual gay person. This insane behavior is unreal considering the cheeto now has fascists troops harassing people on the streets. But this guy will just keep "trolling" da "chuds" on 4chan.
>>96763760I sincerely hope it is pol users doing a little trolling if I’m being honest.
>>96763816>I sincerely hope it is pol users doing a little trolling if I’m being honest.Twitter is the best reality app. Far left troons shriek that it's nazi nazi nazi because they had 100% control over all social media until Elon, and 50/50 dem/gop is sincerely oppression to them.If you actually follow politics you know that normal white gay guys are barely one step over white straight guys. They're squarely on the right now. It's rarely even mentioned that guys like Peter Thiel, Douglas Murray, Scott Pressler are gay... the right just doesn't care. They're equivalent to asians. As long as they're not being complete fags trying to win special privileges for their group (e.g. like Indians, hence the Indian hate), the right is perfectly fine with them.
>>96763810>fascistscool.
>>96763810Funny how the National Guard is regarded as the lazy man's army full of rejects that couldn't make it into the army, and were regarded as incompetent...until they get called to do their jobs for once. And suddenly it's all fascism.
>>96763501Slop has its own specific thread.

>>96762489>Yeah that's cool, hey I'm going to use this anime art of a teenage girl with huge breasts for my character.Sorry this game is for EVERYONE, and that means NOT YOU.
>>96763337>I like when you retards pretend that D&D is suddenly devoid of cheesecake because it showed a picture with the gays.Gay man's idea of an attractive woman (ooh, that's a cute outfit).Imagine having control of the WoTC twitter account and posting this. HEY GAMERS, ARE YOU READY TO TAKE OUR NEW GAL LOLITA ON AN ADVENTURE? SHE THINKS U HAVE AN 18 CHARISMA!
>>96764030That would be based.
Do people at stores still play DnD where any of you live? There are two stores locally, and both have MtG and 40k, one has AoS. But I've not seen people actually play DnD forever, and they haven't moved any books in a long time. I know people buy the shit for "lifestyle products" or whatever, but I don't know anyone who actually plays anymore.
>>96764065I don't play at LGS anymore. Too many problem players and cancelations. Now, online is easier to get a good group going.The last few times I've been in to buy dice or card sleeves, I haven't seen anything other than exploding kittens and other casual ttgs. I think that era is over.
>>96764065There’s a place that has dnd games.I am one of the players. The dm has learned clever ways to keep the problematics out that the op pic is catering to.Usually saying he can’t handle more players is his go to excuse.It is pretty effective at least where I am.But really using a different system that isn’t dnd is a great filter in itself. Current group is debating between basic roleplaying universal game engine or gurps at the moment.
>>96764081I think DnD and Pathfinder 1st Ed, was just fun for the longest an excuse to get together. Covid and the influx of people not there to play killed it in my local. Online just doesn't have the same draw. >>96764084>to keep the problematics out that the op pic is catering to.What is weird to me, is that none of the gay or far end liberal people I know actually want to play together. They want to play with other people, and this isn't some /pol posting or anything. I'm sure it's somewhat just living in a smaller area with a larger city an hour plus away, but I've rarely ever seen a table of people that this would be targeted at actually remain together for long.
>>96762988How do you even get a roster this insane?Also are your trannies hot or just gay men into crossdressing?
>>96764065Just checked what they play at my town's local RPG association these days. According to their social media popular ones currently seem to be Warhammer Fantasy RP and Dolmenwood.
>>96762988Be honest, how many of those titles are double dipping into the same player?
Why not go back to the old school D&D aesthetic everyone enjoys?
>>96762449Gross
>>96764127I wouldn’t know the answer, but if I had to take a guess it is probably to exercise power over others in the form of asking for accommodation.That’s the general impression I got from playing dnd online during the coof lockdowns.>I've rarely ever seen a table of people that this would be targeted at actually remain together for long.I don’t think they can stand themselvesOne thing I’ve learned is that pity and concern can actually piss them off more than outright hate. At least one user in a game was like that.
>>96764151It does not appeal to the vibrant modern audience.
>>96764151>>96764159If only we can have the good old days back where a dungeon was enough fun for an entire weekend at a friend's house. Some of my players are so cringe I honestly debate playing, although I always go back...
>>96763337>cheesecakeNeck yourself.
>>96763726I'm only that last poster. You probably can't recognize anything but your own father's cock in your mouth.
>>96763466>Cries about being ostracized>Is proud about ostracizing peopleKill yourselfT. A fag
What do you even do in a TTRPG made for troon audience? Do you just faggotly slash goblins or does it work way different?
>>96764261Just watch literally any big name streamerD&D sessions, they're all politically queered liberal californians playing fantasy house.
>>96764273I don't want to watch drag monstrosities, give me a quick rundown on how it differs
>>96764279Well, mostly, they play games sitting in front of a camera, and instead of having autistic meltdowns over rules or the DM not letting them rape the children, they do weird shit like "have fun" and "enjoy the session".
>>96764261>>96764273Those game as a concept don't strike weird to me, but what does is that they want to play D&D. They would have better time too if they played out their narrative improv games in some other system more suitable for it.
Someone really care about D&D (game) their shitty art? WotC dont wants you. Ignore this bullshit (they do this to "stay relevant"), play other things, dont buy their slop and move with your life. WotC will die faster.
>>96762449The most offensive part of this image isn't the fact that it's obvious propaganda. It's that every single character is purposefully designed to be visually unpleasing.
>>96764314I will now play your game.
>>96762449Why do libs do this shit? I always sort of stereotyped them as people who were a bit naive but were at least good at art and creativity, but this is just cringe. It isn't good, it isn't interesting, it's actually stripping interest out of fantasy intentionally.We used to make fun of Blue Rose and shit, but this is a MILLION times gayer and more saccharine and cringe than the stuff we used to make fun of for being saccharine and cringe. The pendulum needs to swing back a bit faster man I'm getting tired of this shit.
>>96763395He wasn't denying that they exist, just rightfully pointing out those sessions are fucking boring and the players who seek them out should find a new game.
>>96764342They are obsessed with relatability over idealization.
>>96763651I always hear people talk about shit like this. I never had any weird sexual experiences as a kid. Didn’t even have sex until I was 21.
>>96764342They're deluded to think they're making a massive cultural impact by making their crafted worlds so incredibly gay when in reality its a niche interest and the absolute normie of a person just isn't interested in homosexual stuff, even if they're not against it.
>>96762988That's insane, EIGHT PLAYERS?
>>96764323Visual appeal is a trait of male heterosexuality, and that's something we're trying to eliminate.
>>96763015vtm was cool and gay this is lame and gay
>>96762449Keep it up. Once WOTC dies from pushing this shit and people leave for other systems. It be easier to gatekeep your ass.
>>96764327>grimcuck thinks he's different
>>96763049This is just more death to the lie that some thing from the past would be woke if it was made today. Nobody, aside from someone joking, would think this was woke shit. This actually looks sick, the woman is hot (weird hair sure but it's like barbarian punk weird) and the art is evocative. Striking. The monster is a monster. She's fighting it. Those homies with the robes are doing WWE commentary. This is a power metal album cover.Libs look at this, and they look at the gay dwarves with each others' beards tattooed on their arms and see the same picture, except that one is better because it's less problematic. It's really sad, honestly. I used to think that the lib types were creative and innovative, and provided some humanity to the otherwise staid and puritanical fare of the more conservative broader society, but since becoming the nominal cultural voice they have produced the most sterile, puerile, boring, tedious, unimaginative slop imaginable.The very fact that when you let a Shitlib design a fantasy setting he just makes Portland is so fucking embarassing. I would kill myself if I were a lib desu. I'd put a rubber hose around my neck and then tighten it with a chopstick until I lost consciousness and drop my head on the stick to keep it from unwinding so that I just blood-choke outt and die. The shame would be too much for me.
>>96762449Is the only audience for this people who Are responsive to the colors of the trans flag?
>>96762449Honestly seeing stuff like this makes this hobby feel that much more blessed. If this was official content for something /v/ or/co/ related, they can't really escape it. They are utterly reliant on other creators for content. Not me tho, making my own content is /part of the game/ so hasbro can slop out all this candy colored slice of life art they want, it is entirely irrelevant to what goes on in my campaign.
>>96763337The first one looks like Brianna Wu
>>96764442Right? In Vidya if you try to mod the mentally ill shit out Nexusmods will ban you, you literally cannot escape it without going through extra work and shady third party sites.In Tabletop Gaming though it doesn't matter if they put a tranny flag on the cover of the book, it doesn't matter if they write a lengthy forward in the book (which I pirated) that says that you're only allowed to play the game if you suck shit off of Joseph Stalin's cock, they have no power over you. Your imagination is the game engine. This is why /tg/ will never die. It cannot. It is the ultimate hobby of unrestricted freedom.
>>96762449I hope the Saudis buy D&D at some point
>>96764455I have made a Drow ethno state where young bucks get broken every other Tuesday and it is the job of my current party to continue to make that occur. And they are honestly stoked about it.
>>96764455You know most real communists think homosexuals are inherently bourgeois, right?
>>96764130Half and half. One passes very well and she spent thousands of dollars to do so, one passes if you're drunk (pills only), and one is just a man with autogynophilia.
>>96764462Same. Not showing women at all is better than ugly or minority ones.
>>96764496Saudis are hypocrites about this, the video games they own have continued to show sexy women, and Saudi video game stores also openly sell such games. They draw the line in sex scenes and characters being queer, but showing a bit of skin is okay as long as it is a 2D or 3D modeled girl, and not a photo or video of a real woman.

WoTC have lost out on my money and I’m sure there are many others who feel the same. Straight men hate seeing gay shit like this https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00224545.2016.1184127
Even the people who pretend to like this sort of thing don't actually find it that interesting and would rather spend their time hounding stuff they find problematic. Also the art sucks.This was made for no one.
>>96764455>it doesn't matter if they write a lengthy forward in the book (which I pirated) that says that you're only allowed to play the game if you suck shit off of Joseph Stalin's cock, they have no power over youNope. Free or not, I will not play or touch something written by someone who openly hates me. I will not give them light of day, I will not expose my players to it, and I will never naturally bring it up in conversation, give it a disapproval if someone brings it up, and disavow it from my table if God forbid someone actually shows up with it.It shall remain nameless and die forgotten in the dark where it belongs.

>>96764895I agree with you that Trump is a joke and a terrible piece of shit. However, the far left are even more insufferable. Talking about murdering people you disagree with is pathetic and the ultimate sign of having no way to convince people. Instead resorting to forcing gay shit into everything and violence. I will take Trump over sterilising children, letting a flood of third world shit into my country, and killing anyone who disagrees with those things any day.

>>96764786Are you? Are you really? Let's see if WOTC will bother with DND one in 3 years. I can see them drop it and let licence it out to others. I mean look at Overwatch, dead compared to Marvel Rivals. EA bought up due to all the bad woke games. Disney/Marvel had how many flops this year. Hell even DC Superman movie lost to Demon Slayer. A 10 million movie beat Superman, Fantastic 4, Thunderbolts, Captain African American, etc. Hell, Kimmel got what? A day or two of "good" ratings before it tanked once again. So I am going to ask, are you still winning by slowly killing everything you invaded and took over as new companies are rise up and taking your spot?
>>96764976He surely is a pinnacle of something. If being a shitsmear that stinks up half the world is a metric of power then we are in full agreement. >>96764984That's the guys.
>>96764976That people can even deny the existence of Trump derangement syndrome is all you need to know about how bad it’s gotten over here.
I always find it odd how gays are portrayed in this pastel toned almost excessively wholesome way when everyone knows gay relationships are almost always the most rabidly hedonistic of them all.
Well. This thread is going swell!
What if we just took the faggots, the trannies, and all other undesirables and just gassed them like the societal termites they are?
>>96765050It's yet another ragebait le gays in muh dee and dee thread. /pol/ has been leaking since it was made.
>>96763298At least the moralistic conservatives eventually fucked off and tried making their own shit, with all those weird "Christian" versions of stuff. I wish we could get the same with these weirdos and keep playing as big tiddy dragon slayers.
>>96765065Get started.
Can anyone tell me how successful D&D and WOTC right now with all this woke shit?
>>96765065What if we kirkd every subhuman rightoid scum?
I teach all my friends D&D up until 3.5 and I refuse to entertain 4e/5e, they get all their information solely from me. Every day I feel more vindicated in my choice.
>>96763636>anon would rather have the OP image than pic rel
>>96765076Well, picrel looks goofy, just like OP.
>>96765080Nothing goofy about it.
>>96765070They claimed 5.5e was selling>Gang bustersBut their financial report indicated no or slightly negative growth. They continue to lose market share but are still very popular. Their senior leadership have all left at this point and they’re constantly churning through staff. Their VTT Sigil was cancelled, god knows how much money they wasted on it. MtG paypigs continue to prop WoTC up but D&D is almost certainly not meeting their expectations financially. The TMNT set seems wildly unpopular especially because of AI art. Dark days are ahead of WoTC and I really couldn’t care less as a fan of 5e. The best content was always third party anyways.
>>96765091Look at those goofy motherfuckers. Those vaguely historical helmets. Wizard even has his Merlin hat. This is adorable but no more good looking than OP.
>>96765098Thanks.
>>96765108Right, fellow revolutionary, I also find it extremely strange that they are not sucking each other's dicks
>>96765108>the historical and mythical anachronisms upon which D&D was invented is adorable and goofy, just like the OP which has nothing to do with that
>>96764974Too bad your leaders won't allow you own a gun.
>>96765108>>96765132To be fair, in the early medieval age people were wearing a hodge-podge of gear pieces that could be centuries apart from each other, and that sort of thing went on up until the Irish Revolts.

>>96765129>not jerking off to some old pic makes you a commieThat's why OSR is such a joke. >>96765132Yes. DnD is not a serious game. It never was, no matter how hard mudcore faggots want to rewrite history. >>96765155Fair. I think middle and late medieval arms have stronger presence in pop culture and as such have more "coolness" societal capital. Still, the picture looks goofy. Not sure why some spergs take that as a bad thing.
I play (traditional) games to get AWAY FROM THIS GAY SHIT-ASS WORLD, not for them to push their retarded real-life politics into it

>>96762449How many fucking pride months are there holy shit? This is why everyone hates faggots and is happy when trans kill themselves. It's like every other fucking day is "Pride month" "Pride day" "Pride year". And what the FUCK is that image anyway? What does it have to do with DnD? How does it help the brand? Meanwhile these fucking rats STILL on DnDBeyond do not let you upload your PHYSICAL COPY OF A RULEBOOK to use on the website they MAKE YOU BUY IT AGAINbut to appease the nogames faggots and trans that kill themselves before the age of 30 we have to have unlimited "Pirde months" where nobody but those suicidal maniac freaks that make their entire personality the fact they're mentally ill fucking scum bags that ruin the fucking planet these fucking disgusting creatures will do what exactly? buy their slop? these faggots dont have money they dont work and they kill themselves before the age of 30

>>96765179Hopefully the last.
>>96762449After skimming the thread I need to ask if 5E has art of adventurers in dungeons.And at what year it stopped.
>>96764327Have you tried playing 40k?
>>96762449Didn't Pride month already happen? Do gay people really have nothing else going in their lives except the fact they take cock up the ass?
>>96762449>trans lifelineSo there's an entire NGO/charity designed around trying to convince trannies not to an hero? LMAO

>>96762449Oneirothanatos, the Dream-Eater BeholderThe Oneirothanatos (Dream-Eater)***Overall Appearance:**At first glance, the Oneirothanatos resembles a classic beholder: a massive, floating orb of chitinous flesh with a large, central eye and ten writhing eyestalks. However, its coloration is subtly different. Instead of earthy tones, its hide is a shifting, pearlescent palette of opalescent white, shimmering lavender, and faint, hypnotic gold. Its great central eye doesn't hold malice, but a deep, swirling vortex of kaleidoscopic patterns, like a living opal. Its smaller eyes are not distinct orbs, but are made of solidified, crystalline light, each one pulsing with a soft, alluring glow.
>>96765258### **The Spell: The Soporific Nexus**The beholder's dread central eye does not emit a ray of anti-magic, but instead projects a **Soporific Nexus**—a shimmering, dome-shaped field of energy that expands rapidly to engulf a vast area. The air within the Nexus shimmers like a heat haze, filled with the scent of ozone and forgotten, blissful memories.This spell is a masterful, layered weave of two devastating effects:**1. Mass Illusion (The Grand Mirage):**The Nexus does not create a single illusion, but rather acts as a canvas upon which the victims' own minds paint their deepest, most fervent desires. A warrior sees himself crowned emperor on a mountain of gold. A wizard experiences the moment of unlocking the universe's final secret. A lover is reunited with their soulmate. The illusions are perfect, seamless, and tailored with cruel, psychological precision. They are not just seen; they are felt, smelled, and tasted with absolute fidelity.**2. Euphoria Ray (The Blissful Surge):**Simultaneously, the enchanted atmosphere of the Nexus floods the senses with a neuro-magical euphoria. It is a wave of pure, undiluted ecstasy that courses through the body, overwhelming the nervous system. This is not a gentle happiness, but a violent, addictive rapture. Every touch feels like a lover's caress, every sound is a symphony, and the sight of their personal illusion becomes a religious experience.---### **The Mechanism of Slow Death: Overstimulation and Atrophy**The horror of the Soporific Nexus is not in immediate damage, but in a slow, insidious decay. The combination of perfect illusion and overwhelming euphoria creates a feedback loop of overstimulation from which there is no desire to escape.

>incredibly inoffensive statement>seething projectile ragetwitterposting should be banned
so... saudis gonna buy this failing company out now too? lol
>>96765264**The Process:*** **Addiction and Apathy:** The victim, experiencing the pinnacle of their existence, has no desire to move, eat, drink, or even blink. Why would they? Reality is a pale, worthless shadow compared to the paradise they inhabit. They stand or lie motionless, a beatific smile frozen on their face.* **Neurological Burnout:** The euphoria ray constantly fires the brain's pleasure centers at maximum capacity. Synapses fry under the relentless bliss. The mind, unable to sustain this peak, begins to short-circuit. Victims may start to twitch, their eyes flickering rapidly behind closed lids as their brain tries to process the impossible sensory load.* **Physical Atrophy:** As days pass, the body simply shuts down. Dehydration and starvation set in, but the victim feels no pain, only the continuing euphoria. Their muscles waste away, their skin grows pale and waxy. They do not struggle; they simply... fade.* **The Final Illusion:** The death itself is perceived within the illusion. The emperor's crown becomes impossibly heavy, crushing him in a blissful embrace. The wizard's ultimate secret becomes a blinding light that absorbs him. The lover's embrace becomes a warm, sinking feeling as they drift into eternal sleep together. The victim dies physically from neglect, but experientially, they die at the climax of their own perfect dream.
>>96762449what the fuck is wrong with fucking faggots? yeah we get it you fucking suck cock and take cock up the ass and chop your own cocks off because you couldn't get a girlfriend and your dad thinks youre a fucking cuck, but do you really fuckin self-insert into everything? when i play dnd i make all kinds of characters, who the fuck is self-inserting playing dnd? what kind of mentally fucking deragned fuckin freak does that? these fucking chop cocked tranny fucks need to speed up the suicide process already and just end their faggot lives so normal people can enjoy shit ...and what the FUCK kind of "art" is that? how is it possible back in fuckin 2nd edition we had kino art with good shading, nice use of detail, etc, and now this faggotry looks lazily slopped together it might as well be AI. fucking retarded fat ugly tranny scum bags i can't wait to see another one of you kill yoruselves. i am so happy when a faggot hangs themselves.
>>96765268>incredibly inoffensive statement>seething projectile rageyou mean like how the fags and redditors infesting /tg/ blow a gasket whenever someone doesn't humor social justice shit in their games?
>>96762449WotC is failing and edging closer to bankruptcy. So their latest effort is to try and sell t-shirts made in Chinese sweatshops to people who statistically kill themselves regularly? And they are linking this campaign with a website to try and convince these mentally ill people not to get actual therapy, but to go deeper into madness and still wind up killing themselves? You know what this tells me? Wizards plans to declare they are dissolving soon, or at least selling to another stakeholder.
>>96765264### **Scene of an Attack**A town square, frozen in time. Dozens of people stand or recline in poses of rapture. A blacksmith forever holds the perfect sword he just forged, his eyes wide with joy. Children laugh silently at phantasmal puppets. A guard captain stands at attention, saluting a phantom king. There is no sound but a faint, collective sigh of contentment and the low, resonant hum of the hovering Oneirothanatos. It floats slowly among them, its central eye pulsing, feeding on the psychic energy of their dying dreams, growing ever more vibrant as its victims grow ever more pale. It is a garden of blissful despair, tended by a master of delusion.
>>96762449I haven't bought a single product from them since 5th edition got released. I'm happy to know that this company will not be around much longer. I hope to see them bought up by a country like Saudi Arabia, similar to what EA did, and all these people will wind up homeless and addicted to drugs. I look forward to reading their obituatires.
>>96762449>>96762775You know what the problem is with le epic taco and the faggot dwarfs with the hipster beard tats and the Mexican orcs? It emphasizes the fakeness of the whole thing. Who wants to pay good cash American to be reminded 'this is fake, don't get too immersed?' Who wants to sink money, free time, and thought into something that's just the same boring life they sleepwalk through to get to their leisure time, except with slightly fantastic people making the lattes? No one wants to go out in the world to work at Starbucks. It provokes no wonder. It causes no excitement. It asks nothing of interest.

At the start of each of its turns, the beholder decides which way the cone faces and whether the eye is active. The eye works even if the beholder is blinded or unconscious. If the cone overlaps an area of magic, the area is suppressed, but the eye's effect is not canceled. ***Dream-Eater's Aura.*** Any creature that starts its turn within 30 feet of the Oneirothanatos and can see it must succeed on a DC 17 Wisdom saving throw or be affected by the *Slow* spell for 1 minute. A creature that succeeds on this saving throw is immune to this aura for 24 hours. ### Actions***Bite.*** *Melee Weapon Attack:* +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. *Hit:* 21 (4d10) piercing damage. ***Soporific Nexus (Recharge 5-6).*** The Oneirothanatos activates its central eye, replacing the Antimagic Cone for one round. Each creature of the Oneirothanatos's choice in a 60-foot-radius sphere centered on itself must make a DC 17 Charisma saving throw. On a failed save, a creature is drawn into a perfect illusion of its greatest desire and subjected to overwhelming euphoria. The creature is **Incapacitated** and suffers from **Blissful Atrophy**.On a successful save, a creature is instead affected by the *Slow* spell for 1 minute.

>>96762449And faggots don't understand why more and more of society hopes they get killed. It's hard to believe I used to support gay marriage. Now I just hope they are all shot and are silenced forever so we can go back to enjoying quality and not AI faggot slop.
>>96762449I feel like this could be memed on super easily.We just need to template this.>>96762489Yeah like this.
>>96764574Well I wasn't talking about D&D specifically but there are games that are otherwise interesting from a design perspective that were made by insufferable gay race communsits, Troons etc. I often lament that I cannot patronize them because their work is otherwise good, but I will sometimes read these things to extract what value from them I may. Flying Circus for example was made by a total schizoid troon communist but it had some interesting design features.D&D sadly has no such interest to commend it as at this point it is essentially a non-entity in gaming, people play it, but it has nothing to add to the ongoing discussion of game design, which is what really interests me.
>>96765364why did you zoom in and take a pic of the gay men, Anon? Did they, perhaps, awaken something in you? You are amongst friends, don't worry.
>>96765390Name 10 games that have been ruined by your rainbow colored boogieman.>5eDnD has always sucked ass, why before all this shit
>>96764478Perhaps in the 1950s this was the case, but these days you may be a "Communist" and say that you really don't think farm collectivization is an unalloyed good or that you'd be happy with only killing the really bad Kulaks, and you're still allowed to be part of the club, but if you say you think faggots fuck kids carry disease and should be in mental institutions, you will be expulsed immediately.Since the Ontos of Communism from before the time I was born invariably includes licking the feet of third worlders, pretending that men who masturbate with each others' shit are actually in love, and trying to destroy my religion, as far as I am concerned that is what "Real" Communism is.

>>96765396>point out the shitty quality and slop tier "art">"UHH YEAH ARE YOU SECRETLY GAY"Can't wait for your statistical jump off a bridge and you die and your parents just put your birth name on your gravestone you fucking scum
>>96765403Why 10? Why not 30? You seem disproportionatley upset given the measured tone of my post. Anyway, I already cited one, which was Flying Circus, a very interesting (mechanically) game about WWI style plane mercenaries in a post-apocalyptic world. Genuinely cool idea but the person behind it is an actual insane troon who could not help but laden the text with tedious reminders of modern politics and thinly veiled projections of them into the villains of the setting. One could hardly read it without coming to feel that all of the villains ought to be wearing the author's conservative dad's face. There are a dozen otherwise interesting indie games which, for no real reason, include psychotic leftoid social commentary that draws constant attention to itself.As for D&D, I actually rather enjoyed 3.5. Lots of problems with it but in terms of its direction and tone it was unobjectionable, it just happened to have been made by Monte Cook who is very bad at designing systems. But with the gradually infection of rainbow faggotry, it became such that I could not even appreciate the art, the mutilated settings and the media surrounding the game.And this is really my point. You can have a little bit of rainbow faggotry as a treat. White Wolf had plenty of it, but it became increasingly visible to the point where it was actively detracting from the game's overall aesthetic and themes. At that point it becomes a problem.

>>96762449The image in the OP sucks for the same reason pic related sucks. It's clumsy, preachy, insincere marketing propaganda bullshit by and for the mentally ill.Nothing wrong about works showing preference for left or right beliefs while it's done well. LOTR or Dragonlance had obvious positive takes on faith. Star Trek has always been about being progressive. That's fine because it was something that was an organic part of these works. But when D&D and MtG go full retard with cringe woke shit, or the shills trying to peddle 40k as a chud IP, that's going against the very nature of these works. Any honest person should feel disgusted by it. >>96765258Amazing, well done
>>96765465I've seen this screenshot many times but I just realized that it's a waste of a campaign to just end it as the threat reveals itself. He could've ran a high stakes warfare game where the players not only delved dungeons but also commanded armies and negotiated treaties with rival kingdoms and formerly unavailable powers that only get involved to fight this existential threat, like elves and dwarves or former bad guys. But instead he just says 'gotcha!' and ruins a whole campaigns worth of effort without any die roll just to own the libs..
>>96765227>in the 2024 PHB everybody is always celebrating something and/or feastingthis is effectively what all modern superhero comics are>20 pages of the characters talking, usually while eating>2 page splash of some bad guys getting beaten up>if the hero is male, they get their ass beat until someone higher than them on the progressive stack comes to their rescue.
>>96765490>implying she's going to be allowed to be conventionally attractive
>>96765538Nah, the campaign they played was over, specially if you think about the tantrum the pro gays player threw.
>>96765538You sound like you're man you got owned.

>>96765325Don't worry, there's gonna be enough left to send few more charlies to hell.
>>96763013I mean, you're getting outrage from recycled stuff now.

>>96762988I imagine most trannies that aren't just fat dudes with depression and body issues thinking that becoming a woman will magically save them, don't feel pandered to by being reduced to a marketing tool for a billion dollars company that is known for sacking it's employees.
>>967657232024 isn't old.
>>96765458That's 2 games if I take your word. There are a dime dozen games out there and you're making your point with a minuscular minority. But come again, making mountains out of ant hills is a classic at this point.Like another Anon said, it's a lack of sincerity. Everything's gotta be ironic, post-modern, post-truth. I don't think it's exclusive to TRPGs. It's practically everywhere. Even the "safe havens" of the east are falling for the same trappings.

>>96766222I'm not a xitter user, what does all of this mean?
Does D&D has any art with cool looking characters?I don't care if they're black, gay, or black AND gay.
>>96766353In short, a post on Xitter having more comments and quote retweets than likes is a sign that the post is very very unpopular. It's known as a ratio.
>>96766369Ah, so that's why kids keep saying "you got ratio'd unc" on my youtube comments
>>96766392Unc I believe is slang for an older black male.
>>96763337those are drawings from ten FUCKING YEARS AGO
>>96764478Did you get unfrozen from 1964?
Honestly, the main issue with this art is that it has nothing to do with D&D.>>96766411>>96766369Since you seem to understand the vernacular kids use this days, what the fuck does "aura" mean
>>96766870How to explain Aura? Think of it like your force of personality. Or in even simpler terms just how badass/cool you are. That's the best way I can think to explain it.
>>96763376Did you mean to reply to someone else?
>>96763466How are you going to ostracize anyone? You can't even lift a rifle, pussy
>>96763337pic unrelated? lmao
>>96763480No, the solution is to kill them all, and then you, kike.
>>96764753Yes. For example, two badass dudes, holding hands in front of the corpse of a dragon.(like that one larry elmore dragonlance pic showing all the heroes sitting around a hunted dragon.)
>>96763619You think I can't shitpost and kill people at the same time? lmao
>>96763722You first, start by choosing not to fuck little kids. If you reply you're furious and a pedophile.
>>96763810Not enough troops, clearly.
>>96764261You listen to the DM who is a wholesome chungus make feminist redditor describe your character getting raped.https://youtu.be/cUoenthEiHA?si=pLRysXuvGevhIbxF
>>96764293yeah sure lol. it's not like we have recordings of what you actually do.
>>96764358No one on Earth relates to this.
>>96764442That's where you're wrong. Pinkertons are on the way.
>>96765869Okay? You're acting as though I made some absurd claim that would require an extensive industry-wide spread of evidence. As far as I can tell you don't even disagree with me, you just popped into say "durr name ten" like a /v/ meme. Why should I name ten, why not 50? How many did you name? None. What in my point did you even take onus with? Why are you acting as though I am hysterical, when you are the one responding like this?
>>96764490he spent*
>>96764655All trannies are just men.
>>96764786That's weird, my state just legalized the murder of faggots. Sure you're winning?
>>96764895lol obsessed
>>96764928All of you will be killed easily.
>>96764996gonna cry? lol
>>96765071I wish you would try :)
>>96765132Yes. it's a game of make believe. it is goofy.
>>96765593The campaign wouldn't have been over if the DM hadn't sperged out the way it's implied he did.>Spend two thirds of the campaign becoming leader of a republic and spend the last arc defending your new state from attackers, giving it stability and regional allies and a lasting ground to continue.Sounds great? I don't see the problem. The gay marriage law would just be repealed by incumbent president Chud Wightmail anyway.
>>96762449At some point performative queer marketing becomes so desperate and fake that it almost loops back around to being homophobic
>>96764918>Talking about murdering people you disagree with is pathetichave you been to /pol/ or seen rw twitter recently??
>>96765387Call me Hasbro, I have some ideas....
>>96769346The left calls this rainbow capitalism, but I suspect they find D&D's saccharine pandering less offensive than with Raytheon or Amazon do it.
>>96769751You see, when the right openly fantasizes about mowing down tranners, including prominent media personalities, it's just banter, but when literal whos on twitter meme about Charlie Kirk, it's the official position of The Left™ to murder every non-lefty.
On social media the rats are scattering and disavowing D&D it seems, but there were a few pedos in the X thread whining this represents "Noble Birthright" style of play, which I've never heard of. I assume that's code for "Unadulterated Faggotry".As I'm not interested in fucking anthropomorphic children I don't have a Bluesky account, but it'd probably be funny to see them crying about it there.
>>96770033>including prominent media personalitieswho?
>>96770077Joey Mannarino, Jesse Waters, Elon Musk, Greg Gutfeld off the top of my head.
>>96770133I don't know who three of those guys are and I don't recall Elon 'openly fantasizing' about 'mowing down tranners'
>>96770186 In Elon's case, he fantasizes more about an overall "civil war" against the left.
>>96770219okay so, not an example of what you were claiming thenI wonder if similar cop-outs apply to the other three examples
can you guys fuck of with politics and post some fantasy anime tiddies to combat the forced globo homo of wotc
>>96770243The main point is the normalization of violent rhetoric against the political Other. The right is comfortable with fantasies of violence against leftists and any group the left is perceived to be sympathetic of. I used transgender people as an example. In Joey Mannarino's case, he explicitly called for there to be "no mercy" against transgender people.
>>96770290what did he mean by this?
>>96770347He wants Daddy Brandon double scoop choco-chocolate chip
>>96763517This isn't what men like, this is what fujoshi women think gay men like, or even think/pretend to think for coping purposes that straight men want to look like. Although I like the references to the Horned God's torc (syncretic paganism is one of the last real-world mythologies that you won't get screeched at by wokes or fundies for depicting in your game the wrong way), this could easily be improved by shrinking the moobs, making the sash a functional utility belt rather than out-of-place fetish gear, making the legs less fat, and completely changing the facial expression to avoid the Firbolg Stare.
>>96767089I don't have any problems with games that feature rape, I do however absolutely hate the "hypno" fetish (straight up enslavement like dominate person is fine because it's obviously evil, but anything that alters someone's personality to like it is not) and everything adjacent to it. Maybe browsing Magical Realm greentexts and r/rpghorrorstories has made me hypervigilant against this fetish in particular (as well as sexualized transformation, suspiciously detailed scents, and AO3 stuff), but the fetish part annoys me way more than the sex/immorality part of it. Is this a strange opinion?
>>96764342It's called Vice Signalling. "We won already, what are they going to do, continue not playing?"
>>96763001This is unironically what Freakshit was destined to describe.
>>96765098>The TMNT set seems wildly unpopular especially because of AI artInterestingly, the Freakshit/Tumblr exodus/Bluesky audience which modern tabletop shifted focus to is really obsessed with hating AI art, to the point where they make up misinformation about water use, unsubscribe from youtube channels that used AI once, and send death threats to anyone who improves their art.
>>96770701Huh, now that you mention it, I see a lot of right wing accounts (including the US government itself) use AI art pretty liberally. I guess I'm gonna have to stand with the libs on this one, AI slop is cringe and bad.
>>96765268>"I'm not going to use safety tools in my game">seething projectile rage along with accusations of projecting, microphally, or endangering others
>>96770725Huh?
>>96766870>>96766899In TTRPG terms, "aura" very directly translates to charisma.>inb4 rizz is already charisma"rizz" is what gen alpha kids think charisma is, not what charisma actually is
>>96770744Have you not seen the argument that people who don't want to use safety tools are the ones who need them most/are incel freaks pretending to be masculine/are literally hurting people? It's easiest to naturally encounter this argument in the wild rather than search for it, since there isn't an established exonym for "person who doesn't use safety tools" like how "-phobe" and "-ist" have been standardized, but if you browse r/dndmemes, r/rpghorrorstories, or r/dndcirclejerk (which are apparently the moderate option compared to bluesky and discord) and sort the comments on posts about safety tools/sensitivity/consent by controversial, you'll occasionally see a commenter dare to criticize safety tools and get downvoted along with totally-not-mad responses.
>>96770792>Have you not seen the argument that people who don't want to use safety tools are the ones who need them most/are incel freaks pretending to be masculine/are literally hurting people?No, I don't use reddit that often and I don't even know what a safety tool in ttrpgs is.
>>96770815Good, happy dicing and slicing and may your players be ever-engaged.
>>96764357>literally fucking a dude.
>>96764995What if Elon Musk buys DnD?He alluded to it in the past. Will he be able to make it better?
>>96766222for a game as popular as DnD those are rookie numbers. I bet 800 of those are bots, too....

>>96771130>Is this a blackpill?>Literally Who (queer and vocal about it) saying she never had experiences with anti-Inclusive gamers

>>96767186>That's weird, my state just legalized the murder of faggotsWHAT STATE?!
>>96771441>WHAT STATE?!as-salamu alaykum, ahk
>>96771517Until they're US states, nobody cares what brown people in the 3rd world do.
Hitler was right
>>96762835I don't have any weird sex stories but I still have this on a shelf. Haven't opened it in years. As a kid I was a tard and just snapped the models off the sprues. I must've broken like half the spears/lances doing dumb shit like that.
>>96769902Now this... this is D&D
>>96770033Trannies aren't being mowed down whereas Charlie Kirk was actually murdered. You're arguing a hypothetical versus reality and wondering why people don't find them equal.
