>TTRPG art sucks these days!! It's too woke!
Ok, so why don't you make your own? Surely you have what it takes to produce art that fits your values and aesthetic preferences. Maybe you could play OSR games that are illustrated like that, or better yet, make your own? I hate the kind of art you're talking about, i don't get the point of whining about it here when it's going to change nothing at all. Then you wont need to be angry a the time. I don't get it. I really don't.

Consider touching brass, nogames culture war jeet.

Yeah? Why aren't you? That's actually a valid point.

>>96792147
Why are you living in someone else's house? Why don't you get a job and move out?

>>96792147
Genuinely curious what you would do if you had asbestos in your house. Complain on xitter about how much you hate asbestos? I'd personally just call a professional to have it removed. Or maybe I'd make sure a house had none before I purchased it.
>>
>>96792115
Naive of you to expect people who complain about culture war shit on the internet all day to do anything at all, much less anything creative.
>>
>>96792280
Very glad we live in a world where people complained about asbestos enough to actually get it regulated, rather than just politely avoiding it and paying to have it removed.
>>
>>96792147
At the very least one SHOULD remove asbestos
>>
>>96792147
Asbestos is a public health hazard imposed on you involuntarily. Tabletop RPG art direction, on the other hand, is media content. Nobody is forcing you to look at it. You can literally opt out, ignore it, play something else, or make your own. Stop being a lazy consoomer sack of shit and do something that's not bitching about transsexuals raping your childhood because if this is all you do, then at this rate they deserve to desecrate everything you cared about growing up.

What do you think I play my games on? Homebrewing my stuff doesn't mean I don't enjoy saying bad things about bad things. TTRPG art does suck nowadays, and because of that it's too woke, it would be nice if the art didn't suck, even if it meant not being woke, my use of any non-mainstream party's resources and/or homebrew doesn't preclude me from talking about how the woke art sucks.

How did this impact your last gaming session?
>>
>>96792335
We are seeing an odd kind of selection process, most culture war movements are slowly making sure all creatives in their ranks are othered, leading to modern conservative movements becoming less and less capable of making art, they used to be half decent and even good at it, but modern day stuff is getting...worse because good ones get attacked by their own kind
>>
>>96792115
Retarded argument. I'm not a professional artists but there are many amazing white male artists who are being completely ignored and side lines for the DEI hires. We can mock them as much as we want you can dilate because ywnbaw.

Other people's game table is not your house anon

But I do in fact both make my own art and play games with old school art

>Surely you have what it takes to produce art that fits your values and aesthetic preferences
But I cannot create players who want to play anything other than corporate-approved 5E out of thin air. Even mentioning 5e-adjacent things like SotDL or Symbaroum causes looks of lost sheep. And with my stable grognard group we are not playing anything released after 1990 anyway. But not as often as we would like it.

You are dumb and I'm allowed to not like things

Well? Why don't you?

Taste is not subjective and criticism is good.

I can't afford enough hitmen to remove all investment bankers.

No one will listen to you. They will not change their art style for you no matter how much you whine because you are not their playerbase anymore. You can bitch and moan impotently while pretending to be above it all and wotc will keep including ugly black trannies in their art just to spite you. Nothing you do will have any consequence, the liberals will win, and you will fade into irrelevance begging for corporations to cater to you like the small weak faggot you are.

damn bitch, you need some nigger dick

I mean, everyone around you seem to be building their houses just fine. Maybe you know the house you'll make it's going to be shitty so you're too embarrassed to try.

>TTRPG art sucks these days!! It's too woke!
Proceeds to post videogame art. Which is how it always goes. The people here desperately trying to force a shitty culture war about how modern D&D is bad because of art never seem to post all that much actual old ttrpg art. Instead its pulp covers, Vallejo shit, and random bullshit from anything not an actual ttrpg product.

Additionally, most of the people who want this shit arent the playerbase for the game, and are a whiny shitass minority of losers who dont fucking matter to WotC, Paizo, or any of the other big ttrpg makers.

I hate 5e and its devs, and despite my every attempt to not engage with the game, some feckless loser here has to post a thread whining and complaining about any new random book, social media art piece, or anything that triggers their smoothbrained insecurities about the fucking game despite a professed hatred of it. None of them are going to change the way WotC handles D&D. None of them. The complaining here is literally useless. They lost that war over a decade ago. Better to drop it and move on to actually making their own games than impotently whining about how there's queers and trannies, and pink beholders in someone else's elf games.

>i don't get the point of whining about it here when it's going to change nothing at all
The trick is that it isn't about the art or changing the devs mind, its virtue signalling that youre one of the in-group. Its shared hate that binds certain rightwing movements together. Its less about the content of the art (though there is some of that) than about being entitled losers who want all companies to focus on straight white rightwing manchildren and theyre throwing temper tantrums that the companies arent fulfilling their fantasy of being the most important while neglecting the people they hate.

Not according to this thread. If you don't like asbestos, the responsibility is on you, and you're not allowed to complain or raise awareness of it at all.

>how dare you criticize things instead of ignoring everything
NPC mindset. I've made my own RPGs, art, and RPG content. I also criticize trash. You can't do either, because you don't have a soul. You think you enjoy the slop, but actual fulfillment to you is as alien as an internal monologue, or a mind's eye, or a moral stance that doesn't come from majority opinion.

Just don't live in the fucking asbestos house, nigga.
