Internet artist/tumblr funnyman Johnathan "Bogleech" Wocjik finally sort of made available for public purchase the (used to be)-edgy pokémon TRPG Mortasheen, first announced as coming out in a few weeks back in 2011, has finally temporarily released to the public - PDF and physical copies are being sold on itch 'til the 14th. Anyone else looked at the game? First impressions?
>>96909592He's a huge obnoxious faggot and the reason this took so long to come out is because he wasted years on tumblr arguing about feminism with random people. I have zero expectations for it to be good, but people who eat up his repulsive art will probably pretend like it's a good game because they skimmed through and looked at the pictures.
>>96909692Fucking this. He's never finished a damn thing in his life and I understand what that's like as someone who has trouble with it, but the reasons for it are so stupid is infuriating. Maybe we'd have gotten this two decades ago if he didnt spend all his time crying about endangered parasites getting unfairly thrown under the bus because dolphins are cute, or turning his friend circles into witch hunty echo chambers, or doing a homestuck, or whatever else he did by the time I realized he was a cunt.
>>96909901Except he did? He released this book? He literally finished it. Maybe it sucks, it probably is SJW wokeslop, but he demonstrably finished something. You can go buy it right now.
>>96909939>You can go buy it right now.I don't want to.
>>96909939>buy my bookGo die of a parasite, John
>>96910165I'm not saying to buy his SJW slop. I'm saying you *can* buy it, not that you ought to, you illiterate faggot. I'm simply pointing out he HAS finished something as evidenced by the fact that said finished something is available for purchase.
>>96909939Even though it was finished, saying someone “can’t finish a damn thing” is absolutely a valid criticism if the project is almost a decade an a half past its intended release. Especially when the product is literally a PDF. The only valid excuse for a delay that long is if he had been physically prevented from working on it.
>>96909592Is this like Pokethulhu but not fun?
>>96910223Is Pokethulhu fun?
>>96909692IIRC the original reason why the game got delayed was some issues with the original publisher. He then put the project on the back-burner and it languished for years without progress. It's not like he hasn't done anything in that time: he has an ongoing webcomic-thing and has published multiple books, so it seems he just lost interest on the project and stopped working on it until recently.
>>96909592Ah yes the whiny little bitch who slid into my DMs tried to turn me and several other people against my friend because she watched MLP like 10 years ago.
>>96912829Details?
>>96912870Pretty straightforward, this girl I know and her weird edgelord girlfriend (not that there's anything wrong with that, she made some pretty good shitposts) were lightly active on the pony side of Tumblr back when it was in the first few seasons and Bogleech started reblogging their shit and calling them pedos for liking colourful horses.Then he started contacting everyone who knew them and begging us to cut ties with them. I basically just called him a fag and blocked him.Found out a while later he has some people working for him who make a lot of his website's content but don't get properly credited for it.
>>96909692actually purchased the book and he rewrote the main villain to be an allegory for arguing with people on the internet
I never cared much about mortasheen, but the Abathrael is a pretty cool design
So, who's gonna bite the bullet and link a PDF so that we can all see if it's shit or not?
>>96912904Was one of them his ex? I remember him mentioning an emotionally abusive BPDemon ex girlfriend who I think was pretty active in the furry/pony scenes for a while.
>>96916196Absolutely not, but that might explain why he had such a weird grudge against pony stuff.
>>96916129g0f1le /d/r6mnrk
>>96916196>emotionally abusive BPDemon ex girlfriendYou know, I use to think this too, but after knowing Jonathan like I do now, I wouldn't be surprised if she was a completely innocent party.
>>96912904I remember that. I tried to convince him not to do that shit and he ignored me.He did similar to me and my friends when I blocked his wife for being a psycho. Then he threatened me personally to never tell anyone he did that. The only time he ever called me a friend was in the same sentence he called me a pedophile. Pretty sure he put a hit out on me that lead to a callout post that lost me every friend I'd had for 12 years, some of them irl friends. With letters written in fire, fuck bog.
got screenshots/proof? don't like the guy either but I don't wanna repeat stuff without evidence
>>96917075were you one of those people who was there when he let his wife moderate his forum and she banned a bunch of people 'as a joke' and it created a massive schism in his friend group cause he defended her completely?and it was extra weird cause there was an obnoxious neo nazi troll on the forum who kept race baiting in threads for months that everyone was BEGGING him to ban, and he never touched him
reddit
I like how every time bogleech is brought up on /tg/ or /co/ the threads immediately fill with people talking about their awful experiences with him
>>96917229He's a genuinely unpleasant sack of shit. It's no wonder that so many people have bad things to say about him. The only claim to fame he has these days is being somewhat popular on tumblr, a platform that has no fucking benefits to anyone on there, because he leaves snide replies on a billion posts per day.
>>96917175Yeah. I dont know what was up with that. They suddenly shacked up with no fanfaire and the next day the entire forum burned down. The vibe was pretty damn friendly before that happened, even with the users that were sort of pariahs. He had this weird narrative later that we bullied him constantly, but he didnt interact with us at all. I think he had a total of like three posts there.
>>96917075>>96917175>>96912904I use to think he was the coolest fucking dude as a teenager and grew up to see him as nothing but an insufferable prat who's constantly bending knees to the worst fucking peoplealso fuck him for changing harlequeen's design. probably was worried it was 'sexist' or some stupid bullshit. can't even find the original anymore cause he scrubbed it from the internet.
>>96919954Takes literally 10 seconds to find lmao, far from the most egregious of design butcherings he's done over the years - look at like, any of the arthropoids
>>96919954>>96920312Nah the new design is betterTit-mandibles are far more interesting looking visually than just regular misshapen boobsThe face is also an improvement, this one got weird-ass puffy cheeks that make it look fairly non-threateningBut I generally do not particularly love his older artstyle, it was just ugly-for-ugly sake, more Ren & Stimpy-coded and less biological
>>96920402I agreeShe's way hotter like this
>>96909592Overall I liked the Monster creation and related mechanics as well as the overall lore and aesthetic.Bogleech is also still a fag
>>96917175Also if you were on the forums too, nice to see you. Hope you're doing well anon.
>>96915853I think it has some neat concepts and ideas, if you can ignore Bog it can be funI like the Stinkfishes personally
>>96909592>Johnathan "Bogleech" WocjikI thought he trooned out. Guess I was thinking of someone else.
>>96919954I idolized him as a kid. He showed me that no matter who you are, no matter what your interests were, you weren't alone - someone out there would care about what you liked and thought. That your interests and your ideas matter. That you're cool for being different. What a crock of shit.
>>96922962I remember he was talking about identifying as "non-binary" for a bit but then some transmed cussed him out for being "appropriative" against people born with intersex conditions or DSD or whatever. It seems to have worked.
>ummm what if Poemon but everything is creepy and gross!Fuckin lazy ass shit. I can't help but hate faggots who have zero originality in their bones trying to latch onto other peoples work by making an inversion of it. I hope this fag gets gelded by dogs.
>>96924047how can anyone be this bad at tumblr
>>96924246Nothing is original anymore anon
>>96924246It's not so much "pokemon but gross" as much as it is "pokemon but made by a guy who wanted to study deer worms and fish lice but was too adhd to pass community college", bogleech genuinely thinks all this stuff is equally as wholesome
>>96926500>genuinely thinks all this stuff is equally as wholesomeTo play devils advocate, parasites are pretty cool and sometimes really fucking scary, only troglodytes would disagreeWhether you like him as a person or not, I think there is at least purposefulness and intention behind the designs, like they do follow a clear inspiration from X or Y animal a lot of the timeAlso new Pokemon suck ass and gen1 ripped off Dragon Quest
>>96927217>gen 1 ripped off Dragon QuestSMT also came out with monster summoning beforehand
>>96922962Maybe you're thinking of Thunt, the goblins guy. He did.
>>96915853These guys are pretty neat
>>96927217>said the brain parasite behind a keyboard
>>96909592>tumblr funnymancringe
>>96926500I don't think he thinks of them as equally wholesome. He's a contrarian he likes what people hates and hates what people likes.
>>96938442I wouldn't really call him a true contrarian, even if he shares a lot of the traits of one, as that would imply he is not genuine in his enjoyment of parasites and the like.
>>96938442>>96939367From what he's said, he likes all animals but is most interested in the strange, obscure and creepy-looking ones. He also mostly focuses on those because everybody already knows all about the big, charismatic animals like lions and elephants, but most people don't know about all the weird bugs and stuff. I can't fault him for that, as while I also like animals in general, I prefer studying fish and reptiles over mammals, and I've made multiple threads about weird deep sea fish for pretty much the same reason: there's a bunch of weird and interesting things that are largely unknown to most people and very different from our usual frame of reference.
>>96938442>>96939558I love weird bugs and slimy creatures and whatever, but his stance comes off as completely misunderstanding people.He made this whiny comic ages back having a big sob and questioning why people like puppies more than bot flies or whichever and that's just a completely deluded question to ponder. You can't be seriously wondering why animals that trigger instinctual disgust responses are less popular. You can love your weird bugs without having some bizarre "all the other girls are basic and listen to lil wayne!" stance over it.
>>96939558>>96939599Genuinely sounds like he's got a fetish or that he's just crippled with horrendous autism that makes him permanently fixate on disgusting content. He's obsessed with gross, unpleasant things, and he exclusively draws gross, unpleasant monsters that don't look anything like these real life animals, bugs, etc that he's supposedly cares so much about. I can't truly believe that he feels that he has a duty to focus on disgusting creatures because all the other animals already have good PR. These ugly animals, according to his flimsy excuse, need an extremely abrasive tumblr faggot to tell everyone that they should appreciate the ass-tunneling parasitic worms from borneo by almost exclusively drawing monsters that look like piles of teeth and orifices and dripping, oozing, zits. No artist I've ever known is like that. No artist could be like that without being deeply fixated on disgust in a very unhealthy way.I might believe him if he was drawing beautifully rendered illustrations of these misunderstood creatures so people can understand the intricate, fascinating natural beauty that exists in the carapaces and physiology of something that people only think of as gross. But he's not doing that. He's drawing shit like this. A wrinkly ballsack monster with a massive garbage pile of pustules and limbs and orifices and oozing bullshit coming out of its mouth. What part of this sounds like he's just trying to get people to appreciate obscure creatures?
>>96939876>people who are into horror media are insane, actuallyNTA but you can be interested in several things as well as combining them and being interested in both horror stuff and spec evo isn't that weird.>No artist I've ever known is like thatH.R. Giger literally designed the xenomorph - one of the most if not THE most iconic alien designs ever - based on a species of parasitic wasps. I can also pull other names like Nirasawa Yasushi and so on.You're the weird one desu for throwing around baseless accusations based on... People liking monsters and enjoying designing them? Is every person that collects and paints uh, Nurgle/Tyranids/Skaven/Haemonculi Coven DEldar or Trench Crusade satanic supposedly mentally ill according to you? Because this is "violent videogames cause real murder" grade logic,
>>96939951>horror moviesPeople who enjoy the practical effects and film-making that goes into making something like The Thing are not telling themselves that they are raising awareness to make more people appreciate grievous bodily injury and dismemberment.>comparing this faggot to GeigerGeiger knew what he was doing and was explicitly clear with his intent and message. He didn't tell people that he was trying to show people the true beauty of phallic objects. Fuck off Bogleech and go back to jacking off to insects, you pathetic faggot.
>>96939976Its Giger and not Geiger, you're thinking of radiation tick-tock thingie dummy.>Fuck off Bogleech and go back to jacking off to insectsNot even defending him, but you're making a wild and insane nonsense claim that people designing monsters is somehow a trait of mental illness?No shit that disgusting things are made to be disgusting and disturbing, that doesn't mean the artist has to be disgusted themselves or not find them fascinating. I sure am Giger found the xenomorph fascinating and beguiling, otherwise he wouldn't argue for adding dick-sucking lips to Alien 3 xeno (evolved to lure upon sex-starved prison inmates and then eat their brains from the inside through the mouth).
>>96909692>>96909901>>96910165>>96912829>>96912904>>96917075Reminder that these posts are all being made by a total no-life subhuman who has been stalking and spouting seething bullshit about Bogleech for over a decade because he lost his fucking mind at some point whilst he was in the middle of creating a massive Awful Hospital fangame based on the man's work. Has a Deviantart page where he goes on unhinged Bog rants and everything. Anyway, shit thread that won't be allowed to talk about the game whatsoever due to the above but I just wanted to add to the tire fire. Continue being retarded everyone.
>>96940048>>96940095>I don't have a foot fetish, I just save thousands of pictures of bare feet stepping on rotten eggs for reference!Lmao it actually is you, isn't it? You argue just like him.
>>96940130As I said, this is the same logic on the level of "playing an evil character makes you evil irl", absolutely moronic. Check yourself idiot, you're on /tg/, there is no shortage of people liking monsters here. I'm only "defending" bogleech incidentally because you're peddling one of the shittiest, dumbfuck takes ever.
>>96940095NTA but the schizo's name is bobipineman. Has a YouTube channel where he posted updates for the AH fangame, was featured on Bogleech's Nightmare Creatures feature kn his website (did both artwork for other people's creatures and posted some that he had), has his own Tumblr blog where he religiously rants 24/7 about anything Bog does inbetween schizo meltdowns, has a deviantart as mentioned (no idea if he's moved since), and stalks Bog quite literally anywhere he goes on the internet. >>96940130Whatever you say, bobipineman. All I know is that you are one of the saddest fuckjng schizos alive and that having to make stuff up about a man you once venerated for over a DECADE makes you worse than even some of the worst schizos I've seen on here.
>>96940144Playing AN (singular) evil character is nothing. Playing nothing but evil characters and constantly talking about doing evil things and fixating on evil actions are your primary interest, to the point that your whole identity is based around "evil" media and hobbies, to the point that everyone around you and who interacts with you is sick of hearing about your evil hobby, is just mental illness.
>>96939558Oh, hey, Nomic.
>>96940271The only mentally ill one is you bobi. The fact you keep coming into Bogleech threads just to rant and make shit up about the man, not to mention the samefagging, is 100% a sign of mental instability.
>>96940271Thats an insane take of a wannabe pitchfork witchfinder. I play (mostly) edgelords or evil characters or freakshit and I'm an otherwise pretty unremarkable and normal person IRL.
Well ignoring Bog and his A-logs, I quite liked his redesign of Gluttony, I think the nest aesthetic is neat
>>96910198The PDF is loaded with art he was designing by hand, a whole heaping of rules and interactions and other autistic design details, didn't have anyone he could publish it through for half a decade since he wanted it to be a proper gamebook, was subject to IMMENSE scope and content creep long before most of the psoters here were out of highschool and is several hundred pages long. It taking so long to release makes sense under that basis.It isn't even the longest gap between releases or even ANY info at all that I've ever seen for an RPG.
>>96940344It does a good job of highlighting the icky parts about birds, the quill-like fuzz is pretty gnarly
>I'm not bogleech!>I just have intimate knowledge about him, his game, and all of the drama surrounding him and I'm going to angrily and aggressively defend him, while praising him, for no reason!Really makes you think, doesn't it?
>>96940406who are you quoting lil bro
>>96940375The Devilbirds are so wretched I can't help but love them
>>96940542Ya Gluttony is my favourite probably, the vein over eye thing is so fucking weird
>>96940406>his gameBog doesn't have a game though unless you're talking about Mortasheen, which nobody here has read to have an opinion on. Did you already forget your own fangame, bopi?
>>96941022You're doing a truly amazing job at making a total ass of yourself. I'm sure this will finally endear people to you, buddy. You'll beat those obnoxious faggot accusations for sure! Just keep being extremely paranoid and accusatory.
>>96940571I think the vein is meant to show how it's head is mostly useless, as it's probably blind, only being a factory to create pearls.
>>96941372Yes, I'm sure being considered an "obnoxious faggot" by the same retard who has been gangstalking a man since fucking 2016 will terrify the shit out of me, bobi. How about you go ahead and screencap my pposts to share with your kiwifarms 'friends' while you're at it? I'm sure you getting told to fuck off by a 4chan rando will be a good laugh for them.
>>96941644Wow, you're really well read on this one guy's particular drama that no one else mentioned. Why is that?
>>96941644Oh I think he might be the guy who goes by "Hey Bitches it's me" on Kiwifarms
>>96939876>I might believe him if he was drawing beautifully rendered illustrations of these misunderstood creatures so people can understand the intricate, fascinating natural beauty that exists in the carapaces and physiology of something that people only think of as gross. But he's not doing thatHe did publish a children's science book about bugs that doesn't feature his usual gross-out style. The style is still cartoonish, but he can tone down the grossness when he feels like it. Mortasheen in particular is where goes most all-in on the gross-out style, much more than his nature articles.
>>96941372>>96941743>@bobipineman , since you’re always reading my blog, please, please stop fucking reading my blog. Please get new interests. Latch on to a different creature artist. What is wrong with you. Even when I have you blocked you read everything I post just to screenshot every little thing you find “weird” and share it with a clique of people who rage about me all day.>You seem to think I do something worse or equivalent to that, but I only post about someone being a dick after they have been a dick. And if they explain themselves or they stop being a dick, then I don’t keep going. You on the other hand started incredibly bizarre, obsessive behavior in response to the first time I ever blocked you, and have kept doing it for years now even when I was never acknowledging you.>That original block was only because you had already spent several years by then regularly nagging me like this to stop posting “politics” you don’t want to read:>.which is already really weird of you to do to anyone. I asked you so nicely so often to knock that off, but you kept at it until I had to block you, and then instead of moving on, you shifted to the skin-crawling new hobby of screenshotting me for lolcow boards. If you don’t like someone’s posts then you don’t follow their blog, that’s it, you don’t badger them to change and then spend the rest of your life complaining about them to randos when they say no.Bobi, you have explicitly been told several times over by both Bog and many other people unfortunate enough to have known you to leave him the fuck alone if you hate him so much. Instead, you have taken to stalking him past a block, your Tumblr is nothing BUT reposts of shit Bogleech posts 24/7, you continue to make a game for his work despite claiming to hate him and it in the same breath, and you constantly bring him up solely to get a horde of kiwifarms faggots to pester him.
>>96941749His name on Kiwifarms is apparently "Justwandering02", but I wouldn't be surprised if he has other accounts.
>>96941813It's really adorable that you think I'm your boogeyman stalker, but I'm not and it's honestly hilarious that you think this is some kind of epic dunk when all you're doing is sperging about e-drama
>>96941842>I'm yourNot Bog, bobi. The fact you keep assuming that I am him because of your weird parasocial obsession with the man is the biggest fucking clue as to who you are, even ignoring this thread is filled with you shitting all over it as you always do when Bogleech is involved.
So Monsters aye?
>>96941850You're just someone who is obsessed with bog's drama and willing to, for no reason whatsoever, engage in paranoid sperging on his behalf. I'm sure.
Speaking as a /co/ regular who used to post in the few Awful Hospital threads we got there, is bobipineman the same guy who kept screeching every thread about how Jay was some kind of "hateful commentary on wanting white men dead" or something to that effect? Fucker made those threads unusable.
>>96941858Anon, this threads first half a dozen replies were just this one schizo seething over Bogleech. This was never meant to be a Mortasheen thread. >>96941862And I'm sure >>96909692 and >>96909901 were totally made with zero bias or one-sided hatred that you felt the need to bring into a TRADITIONAL GAMES thread.
>>96941888Shame, cause I like Mortasheen's worldbuilding and monster design
>>96941888Why does negativity towards a colossal faggot with an abrasive personality strike you as some kind of conspiracy? People having negative opinions on something isn't bias. It's just anons saying what they actually believe.
>>96941749>>96941823Just going to note that he's also compared Bogleech to Chris-chan amongst other things and can't stop documenting him as his "personal lolcow". I stopped trying to discuss Bog's stuff on this site entirely because this one faggot has made that literally impossible, regardless of the board you go to (ironically, /trash/ was completely clear of him somehow). Every fucking thread turns into him feeling the incessant need to sperg about how much he hates Bogleech and dump made-up stories about how the man fucked his e-girlfriend or something like that.
>>96941920>Why does negativity towards a colossal faggot with an abrasive personalityPlease psot evidence of this "abrasive personality", bobi. Because I've spoken with Bogleech LITERALLY on this fucking site and I've never seen it - and believe me, I've known abrasive motherfuckers here. Bog was never once impolite or snarky or rude unless he was talking to some seething /pol/posting shitposter ranting about "white guilt" which I have a sneaking suspicion was always you.
>>96941942>you're not allowed to criticize this guy because I LITERALLY TALKED TO HIMLmao you are fucking pathetic man. If you genuinely aren't bog, you're doing a bang-up job being an example of the kind of people who worship him. He's an obnoxious pseudo-intellectual faggot who becomes hated by anyone who interacts with him for any length of time, but don't take my word for it. Look through this thread right here, the once a year mortasheen thread, because /tg/ doesn't care about this game and hates the faggot who made it.>>96912829>>96912904>>96913751>>96917075>>96917175>>96917229>>96917404>>96919954
>>96941996I didn't ask for you to listpost your own samefagging, bobi. I asked you to psot actual evidence of Bog's abrasive personality. Which should be easy if he's as awful as you keep claiming - conveniently behind his back where he's not here to say anything in his defense, mind you - and where anyone can literally go to his blog right now to see what he posts.
>>96941996Nobody said you can't criticize him. You were simply asked to post proof that he's as bad as youve been saying all thread. Which you have yet to do. Why do schizos always get so defensive when you ask them to verify their bullshit claims? If the man is the total Ken Penders tier asshole you're making him out to be, then just screenshot one of his posts and show it to us. It's that easy.
>>96941918I do to, but what can you do? Schizos have made it impossible to talk about a startling number of topics here or elsewhere, and the number rises with each year.
So what class of Monster do you guys like the most.Personally I'm fond of the Ectophasms
>>96942066The Wreaths sound cool, but I only have that one line from the book the schizo posted to go off of so until someone actually posts the PDF here, I'm gonna say the Vampires.
>>96942019You're seething with rage and believing that several different anons must all be one boogeyman e-stalker because you refuse to accept that anyone has a legitimate reason to hate a sanctimonious faggot who jacks off to bugs.>>96942034https://bogleech.tumblr.com/search/feminismLiterally just go read his blog and search any if the typical controversial buzzwords. I'm sure the spaz who chronicles every single negative thing ever said about bog can give you a skewed version of events for everything that happened on his tumblr and forum years ago.
>>96942072Looking it up this was the only art of Wreath I could find, which is strange cause I remember seeing three more bots, one kind of looked like a trilobite
>>96942091>Literally just go read his blog and search any if the typical controversial buzzwords.That is not what you were asked. Post, specifically, what makes Bog "a colossal faggot with an abrasive personality" and stop wasting our time with your schizophrenia. I do not want a list of what you THINK he says, I want the exact words out of his mouth that justify seething over him like this.
>>96942132His blog is a display of his abrasive personality. Why are you so desperate to pretend that bog, himself, isn't the reason people dislike him?
>>96942108Man, that is a cool as fuck design. >>96942165>His blog is a display of his abrasive personality. Having read his blog, Bogleech is mostly chill outside of calling attention to shit so comically evil you'd have to be a literal retard to approve of it. Heck, I've seen him call even radical leftists and other "woke" people out frequently so I have no idea what you're getting with in terms of these "buzzwords" he throws around.
>>96942156Try his opinions on Starship Troopers, I guess.https://www.tumblr.com/bogleech/search/Starship%20Troopers>>96942199All you're saying is that you think no one can dislike him because you tacitly agree with him unconditionally, and that makes him chill.
>>96942156According to bobi, the fact Bog talks about politics at all is him using "controversial buzzwords".
>>96942237>https://www.tumblr.com/bogleech/search/Starship%20TroopersNothing he said here was "controversial" or a "buzzword". And in fact form what I gather, this is him mostly calling out a guy named Gsirvitor who went on an unhinged rant against the humans in Starship Troopers being an analogy for fascism, which is a debate I've literally constantly seen held here whenever we talk about Starship Troopers which most people tend to agree is true.
>>96942274The guy thinks the bugs in ST are innocent because they represent communism.
>>96942387He didn't say that. The entirety of his posts detailing the situation are calling out Gsirvitor for freaking out and making a shitty rant about how the humans being fascist invaders is "wrong" and how the bugs, which in the original novel were a commentary on communism, deserve extermination under that basis with Gsirvitor conflating the bugs with [insert groups of people he doesn't like].If anything, those posts are Bog criticizing OTHER people's opinions on Starship Troopers. He barely gives any of his own. Also, the main villains in his webcomic are literally representative of insane governmental bodies trying to turn everyone into one homogenous block so what the fuck are you talking about.
>>96942072pdf was already posted, g0f1le /d/r6mnrk>>96940241bobinpineman is an quebecois frog-eater who types like an ESL 14-year old, the guy you've been arguing with is too well-spoken to be him
>>96942581>the guy you've been arguing with is too well-spoken to be himI've known a shitposter who literally uses AI to auto-translate his posts into something legible because when posting normally, he's fully incoherent. Don't underestimate the depths schizos will sink to if needed.Also, I've seen several of his posts elsewhere and he's conveniently very capable of posting semi-normally when he's not ranting at Bog.
>>96942599If your accusations require multiple layers of obfuscation and complexity just to ensure that you aren't humiliating yourself by ranting and raving about a highly specific individual that no one else but you can identify, then the only schizo here is you.
>>96942618Okay, bobi.
>>96942581>>96942618It really doesn't matter whether or not this particular schizo is bobipineman or not. Because him, Neurovore/Hepativore, and Stanton Fink/Avancna are all friends with each other, post on the exact same boards (almost always Kiwifarms or adjacent places), and say and share the exact same seething illogical hatred over Bogleech to the point that they're essentially just clones of each other.This one could be bobi. It could be Neurovore. Or it could even be Avancna. You'd never be able to tell because they post and sound the exact fucking same.
>>96943159And what if it's none of them and your kiwifarms fixation caused you to make an ass of yourself for hours, because you thought sperging about e-drama would legitimize engaging in more pointless e-drama? How are you any different from these spooks you waste your life concerning yourself with?
>>96943307Bog usually announces when he's in a thread, from my experience with him on /co/ (which is the only time I've ever seen him on here - he never visits the /tg/ threads). We've had threads for Mortasheen before, but they were always shortlived and filled with either shitposting or people complaining about how long the game was taking to come out.Personally, I think Bogleech gave up coming here at the exact time the last thread on /co/ died due to the aforementioned faggots. Which is a shame, because he was one of the very last remaining creators who still gave a shit to interact with his 4chan fanbase.

>>96943102>Humans invaded their worldSome independent kooks landed illegally on a contested planet and they slaughtered them all. The planet was only even contested because the bugs had expanded there first.It's kind of extraordinary the leaps in logic required to see them as anything other than a viciously invasive living genocide, up to the people claiming everything involved in the background of the movie is a false flag, and they still literally only interact with humans with violence.The bugs are actually a really good example of how a certain kind of person can see the most threatening thing alive and still wax on about how the way we depict or treat it is worse, as they're being wiped out with not a single breath of concern for optics or ethics from this enemy side.

Bog's criticisms of the other guy's rant only apply to the bugs in the book. The book itself is 100% a political piece just dressed in a sci-fi coating.

>>96944334I'm not the one acting like Nyanko, Argent.
This is the worst thread ever
>>96944152>Nobody takes the movies as being indicative of the bugs in the bookA lot of people do. There's gotta be ten times the amount of people that only watched the movie and are pretty comfortable assuming the book is just like it.The bugs in the book are a completely separate discourse from this though. It's just open conflict between near peer, but alien, nations. Worrying about whether there's gonna be any of them or us left at the end is an entirely different question that's easy to not worry about because you might not get any choice in the matter anyway.
ive legit played a few campaigns and despite my limited experience its been some of the most fun ive had ttrpging. the system is punchy, chaotic, and fun, and the setting provides good opportunities to engage with it often and in unique ways. i enjoy statting out custom monsters a lot, you can do so much with the system its insane.im sad noones actually talking about it? is anyone here actually thinking of running it? planning builds? character concepts? anything besides kiwifarms drama?
>>96941996Jesus christ, get a fucking life schizo.
>>96945151Can't believe we've finally someone who isn't a nogames retard... were you a kickstarter backer? Were you playing with the alpha release, and have you noticed any noticeable mechanical changes n the full version? been considering trying to get something started, wondering how it actually works in practice
>>96940095Sorry bro, he actually did harass my friend group in a really sad way because gasp, some tumblr lesbians liked ponies for a few years, on top of whatever bullshit you're talking about.
>>96944530Truth nuke.>>96945151At least you had fun, anon.
>>96945405im a backer and ive gotten a chance to play nearly every single kickstarter based version, its changed quite drastically since the start - most notable is how the combat is based off abstract circular zones instead of a regular grid. in practice this just means that theres far fewer spaces and multiple things can be on each space, but ive seen some dms do interesting things like a rotating circular floor or football field.in terms of setting things up ive heard that you can really easily make up scenes by just placing a few npcs and monsters (not necessarily mutually exclusive since near any monster can communicate w the players). it might be worth it to run a one shot or two but mortasheen is like. DEAD SIMPLE in terms of chargen so you don't exactly sink an entire session 0 on just rolling dice and pouring through perk lists.the monsters are really cool - each one is made of parts which you individually damage and break, and each part has an associated action determined by a series of modular blocks. i kind of adore the system since you can make some truly wacky shit in it (gashunk has a part which is an entire shark which can freely drop off and act as a seperate entity, still biting). its a bit complex but once you spend enough time with it and you learn some edge cases like the [ENCORE] block you should be able to have a lot of fun. honestly with how much emphasis there is on customization it almost feels like the basegame itself has an element of homebrew to it.im not sure if i answered all your questions but this should be a good overview...?
>>96940095anon I don't think you understand just how many people bog has managed to piss off over the years.and it's not even things he does intentionally half the time. it's the people he associates with and continuously defends.
>>96945758I really like Mortasheen's monster building, definetly one of the highlights from what I've read of it
>>96945758Interesting, ought to give it a try. Were you proctoring or playing, and if the latter what was your ygore? been considering setting up an online game as playtest... what did you actually do for scenarios? Mortasheen city has a bunch of locations and encounters and stuff pretty fleshed out but the book is pretty sparse on advice in terms of actual campaign structure, wondering what you did for plots oher than just letting the think tank fuck around looking for monsters
>>96944071>retarded tribalist claims media literacy awardIts lynching of the author at this point LMAOOO
>>96946166Not that anon but I think that for Mortasheen one of the easiest things to do is have your Think Tank go and battle their monsters in a tournament while someone, like Ziven, tries to sabotage them, during downtime they go out to find/make more monsters. That would be my idea if I ever decided to DM a game at least.
>>96913838Go back to /pol/.
>>96946166ive only ever been a player thusfar, my first ygore being a gravewiggle and my second (somewhat stretching the rules for the sake of a fun character concept) being a lazaroid. campaign structure is basically entirely based on the concept of a 'think tank' - the pcs are a collective of mad scientists with a generalized purpose that they seek through wacky adventures. my first campaign involved our think tank constructing a restaraunt designed to bring fine dining to the masses in an inexpensive way, and our adventures included hunting for ingredients, sabotaging a flenseco investor presentation, and infiltrating a cult to get a genetically correct sample of goat meat.not every adventure needs to directly tie into the think tank - once we met the cult we did an additional mission cracking into the sluckways with them on an expedition, or invading a vampire's lair to learn more about an area of interest. there's also the matter of stuff like actual antagonists - a campaign we did involving running a theater involved the party being at the beck and call of a corrupt executive who stole their memories, as well as dealing with the wreathe. missions involved 'claiming' an old building as a lair, seeking out talent, taking part in a racing competition at the boss' behest, going to the skitterwood to get blocks for the racing competition, infiltrating a reality show to weed out wreathe infiltrators, and being ambushed while expanding the lair and sent to the substrata below. the sky is basically the limit and due to teleportation you can have radically different locations for most missions if youd like.
>>96947387as an example off the top of my head, consider a municipal think tank based in the rustfen that wants to provide advanced and reliable power sources to their neighbors. missions could include:> going to the sparkjungle to steal a few nuclear reactors and kick off the business> invading the chemistry college to try and find a rustproofing solution> getting a lead on an insanely potent new type of power source and trying to hunt it down> learning the skitterwood might crawl over your location and working to influence its path, as to prevent damage to your new infrastructure> you made some friends recently and they phone you up to help wire in their lair, but something goes terribly wrong> one of your players wants to plutonium rule a surgeon discovery, so you attend a mini tournament at the surgery college> hijacking a spaceship in the ridge so you can set up some solar panels> diving deep into the ocean to dismantle a retrohuman submarine for its control rod> setting up and defending a smogsands pumpjack to get some sweet crude oil> invading the engineering college to look at the dean's notes and try to find an ancient way to generate power> trying to survive a lair invasion after doing thatthere's lots of ways to take basic concepts and twist them into adventures in almost any given borough, and not all of them need to be one offs or directly linked to a specific goal. at least this is how ive seen it eun, you definitely could just dick around looking for monsters but the extra goals provide the spice i feel.
>>96947475>>96947387interesting... the player-ambition driven structure suggested by mortasheens think tank goals and project-based progression is really interesting, actually. I wonder if some kind of west-marches type thing might be possible in a modified setting - having multiple different think tanks run by different parties at once competing for resources and given control of different parts of the city? Potential dungeon-crawls built around assaulting each others lairs, given that there is a fairly robust system for their creation...
>>96940095you really think bog hasnt just made many enemies over his lifetime of going out of his way to make enemies and play the victim? You're clearly not him or you'd remember every single one of these instances and probably gloat about it, but you -are- an idiot.
>>96947387Where's that image from? Is it a manga?
>>96946710>>96949873Samefagging schizo.
>>96948849I could definitely see something like that working, as long as the rules for territory control were well-made and the proctor was able to run something so big. a lot of the game is balanced around pvp style combat (npcs are statted exactly like pcs and you can already use monsters), and one of the first games i played was just a simple set of deathmatches (granted, it was in a far less balanced iteration where puppeting snapped the action economy in half).as for lair combat? its not something i have as much experience with, but it def could work and a few normal sessions had missions involving raiding lairs (and a lategame monster is statted as one). one issue is that player built lair module block cap depends on player level, so for a campaign focusing on it you might wanna start at respectability 5 - but given how every single campaign ive played has fizzled out in the midgame (due to external factors / people problems) i have no idea where the balance goes in a lategame campaign, so its your call on how to handle it.id def wanna see that style of campaign run tho, or read a retrospective, or see how you'd rule it. in general itd be interesting to see people play the game and talk about it, having other peoples' experiences as a point of reference would be exciting to see.>>96950371sorry, no clue. i just have a bunch of random images saved so i can scroll them for fun.
>>96949873Take note that the guy who wasted days of his life jumping at shadows because he's hyper-invested in kiwifarms drama hadn't even played or read this game and had nothing to say about it until someone who did actually showed up.
>>96950556>sorry, no clue. i just have a bunch of random images saved so i can scroll them for fun.Fair
>>96950686Retard.
>>96950556>every single campaign ive played has fizzled out in the midgame (due to external factors / people problemsthe universal scourge... honestly might try it just as an experiment, will definitely post about it if I ever do
>>96951772id love to see it - i dont usually browse 4chan that much but ill make sure to check the archives every now and again - your contribution is heavily appreciated either way, seeing the game get run would be a real good way to stress test it.>>96950686when i initially saw the thread seeing that it immediately devolved into kiwifarms tier drama was disheartening - learning there's a good chance it was like at most 1-3 random people who make it their personality was frankly baffling. hopefully if there's more threads its not a repeated phenomena, but i'm not optimistic...

>>96955241So why don't you stop?
>>96953504i think in the end it depends, like basically any game, on having a good proctor and set of players at the table. i was lucky enough to play a few sessions with a phenomenal gm who created some really tasteful homebrew - like an apteros who was a contractor and got antsy when having to work overtime and a lloid who used his talents to get into showbusiness and would contribute to writing plays in downtime. if youre interested in actively running a campaign id recommend getting it now since there may be some complications regarding the team setting up a way to sell it long term and itd give you time to acclimate to the system but otherwise its your call. im a bit biased towards the setting due to having kept track of it for years but did legitimately enjoy the crunch a lot, it scratches an itch to make 'builds' in a very fulfilling way.>>96954558im honestly glad youre still sticking through it, i would have given up long ago i think. the thread is legit kind of painful to look at. speaking of...>>96955245>>96955283posting a string of messages back to back like this going sequentially down the thread makes it incredibly obvious you're just one person with nothing better to do. you havent even managed to fully poison the well since we're still talking about the game. what's the point?
>>96953504Here you go >>96916721
>>96955582>poison the wellNTA but what do you think you're going to accomplish with your impotent whinging? You can try talking about the game, but if fa/tg/uys have already decided they think the creator is a huge faggot, you're not going to win anyone over by acting like this. Besides, it's just you. Only you. No one else has anything to say about the game because they haven't read it, and the other guy who had a schizoid meltdown is continually trying to bait you to keep talking because he desperately wants to make it look like /tg/ actually cares about this game and likes its creator.
>>96955749the idea that nearly every person actually engaging with my posts is the same person is kind of actively breaking my brain. somehow i never considered that a possibility. i guess i just underestimated the depths of insanity people are willing to plunge to.im well aware of bog's issues, he actually did something similar to someone in a discord im in very recently (never gonna get to post about the game there i guess, haha). odds are he has some kind of moral complex that keeps causing these scenarios. i kinda was just hoping that thered be people who like. didnt agree with bog but still were able to engage with the game.i might not be back in this thread it feels like im stuck in platos cave.
>>96955900>kinda was just hoping that thered be people who like. didnt agree with bog but still were able to engage with the game.It's a niche game made by a guy who is a flaming faggot. The pool of people who would be actually interested in this is indescribablely small. The chances of one of those people being on here, not mentally ill, and willing to engage in a discussion are even smaller. You should probably just stick to whereever the faggot creators sycophants hang out and you'd have a better chance at a real discussion.
>>96955900I mean the game is just uninteresting to me. I don't find gross things interesting and I'm zymology-adjacent IRL. There's a ton of better RPGs and I don't like the same thing Bogleech likes and think he's a whiny liberal cunt. Would I play his game if one of my friends was gonna run it? I'd give it a shot? Other than that, there's nothing for me to say. But also absolutely, 4chan has people on it that are actually mentally unwell who have bots patrolling threads, looking for things that they have a bee in their bonnet about, just so that they could come in and start spewing their insanity everywhere.
>>96955900Eh, I doubt everyone is the same guy, especially since I'm pretty sure I didn't write half of these posts....probablyAnyway back to the game, I remember attempting to make a monster using the old drafts of Mortasheen based on the old Rock Beast concepts turned into a mining beast.Earthen DeepdelverGolilthic - Large Bioconstruct (Rock Beast)Scanalysis Goal: 13Brains: 2Brawns: 11Parts (6) Endurance (17)Heavy Metal Reinforcement - Skeleton (3)[RESIST +1d10 physical, kinetic, cryonic, necrotic][COMBINE 3]Statuesque - Body (3)[ARMOR +4 brawn][SHEILD]Stonebreaker - Upper Arms (4)[DAMAGE +3d10 physical/brawn][PIERCE 2]Yearn for the Mines - Lower Arms (2)[MOVE burrowing][DASH +1]Reviviclay - Living Clay (3)[REGENERATE 3][INSULATE]Lumbering Beast - Legs (2)[MOVE standard]

>>96955900I know claiming samefag is 4chan culture but these stories pop up every time he gets mentioned. He's just like that. Its going to create animosity. If bog hadn't personally wronged me and gunned for people I care about in the same swing, I'd be able to separate him from his art. I genuinely really like his art. It proved a formative experience and inspired a lot of what I like. But he, as you succinctly said it, poisoned the well. He poisons a lot of wells.
>>96955582why didn't you buy an ad, faggot?
>>96909592he really used this dull, forgettable deviantart sludge for his marketing? lol
>>96956172oh this is neat! the rock golems are a really funny set of monsters, there's not a lot of smaller-scale sets like that these days (only ones i can remember are the lizard punks and biocleansers, and those are both 2 creatures only).regenerate under insulate is scary this would probably be a pretty potent build for 13 points. i can tell its a bit older due to the lack of a 'quirk' and lower scanalysis goal. i think if i were to stat it out i might include its fertilizer as an ability, probably applying sordid to anything but botanicals which get some kind of buff. block system is a lot more versatile thanks to some blocks they added since the beta, they really ironed out the base concept.>>96956283lazaroid is legit my favorite monster in the setting, i made a mech pilot character once and named the mech in the same style as lancer. her playing war thunder and leaking classified military info was a major plot point.>>96956347i can fully understand this sentiment i think. bog kind of doesnt understand his reach and it results in him putting a pretty big spotlight on just like. random individuals. it kinda causes a lot of damage and i get where the spite comes from - i just hadnt expected it to be common, or for those individuals to browse tg. that other anon is right, i probsbly should stick to the discord. i dont even really browse 4chan at all.
>>96955900Could you provide screenshots for the incident you mentioned? I've heard of similar things but no one seems to have coughed up proof yet.
>>96956172IK it's insanely old and probably unfit for the setting but I wonder if bog will ever revisit truly ancient concept of the 'Celestials' from back before mortasheen was even called Mortasheen, the old necromon deviantart monsters that were created from zombies by good-aligned clerics as anti-mutant weapons.. He has continually promised a bestiary supplement that will roll in a bunch more monsters, if the zombie spawn get an expansion could maybe see some influence going into revived ultimates..
The monsters range from actually super cool to fucking hard to look at, which I do get is kinda the point
>>96957309I assume if he did they'd be reworked to be designed similar to Oovule, maybe having a rotten "in-complete" form as well.The bird ones could also be reworked into devilbirds.
>>96957309I wish he'd stop shying away from making things too 'magical'. Psionics are already a thing in the game, I get you wanna go sci-fi, and you still can, just simply by keeping things unexplained and mysterious. You don't gotta go full fedora tipping reddit atheist about it.
>>96957575desu yeah i was assuming there'd be some sort of fetal angle inevitably since the old designs are super plain, but honestly didn't account for the fact that the devilbirds already occupy the whole celestial-infernal slot.. guess the actual question then would be more the handling of the ultimates as a whole since none of them made it into the main book except Harlequeen and Tormites description has been rewritten to avoid mentioning Tormanshee at all... Viviphage is nodded to, though, so there may yet remain a possibility..
>>96957575Abnortis is so cursed looking
>>96942066For me, gotta be Jokers, I don't know why, but I am enamored to the silly bufoonsCruelhardy is my favorite and I'm a bit sad it didn't make the first book
>>96957309Jesus the more I hear about this game the more boring it gets
>>96957801I can only assume that the Ultimates are being saved for expansions/campaigns, with the only reason the Harlequeen is in it is the fact that it's one of the most iconic Joker designs
>>96957801>>96961307I was totally wrong about this btw I just didn't check the bestiary, the actual bioconstruct ultimates aren't in the book but there's several other classes with ultimates - the Devilbirds have a whole new one in the form of Aviazel and Monstrodread is pretty clearly something of an ultimate itself..One thing I'm surprised by is just looking at the point values Harlequeen is obviously positioned as an ultimate by virtue of having a Scanalysis goal of 100 (on par with the 2nd-strongest Celestial Engine) but Monstrodread and Aviazel are both well below - the only other 100-Scanalysis monster in the book is Stingg for some reason.>>96948849Going back to this I think probably main problem is Mortasheen's claimed population density, physical size, and level of education is way too high for individual think tanks to actually exert substantial control over any region.. Thinking of maybe setting it either fairly early on when the city was much younger, or alternatively after a devastating natural disaster or wreath raid wiped out a huge portion of the population? ..That or just start the players out decently high level and assume that vast majority of scientists are just dumber than them
>>96963274I mean one could be educated but lack the sheer ambition.
>>96951912>hopefully if there's more threads its not a repeated phenomena, Every single thread that has ever mentioned Bog even tangentially has had one of these three people show up and shit their proverbial diapers over the man in perpetuity until the thread dies. I have never seen a thread discussing the man's work end differently. Quite frankly you won't be able to have a thread about this game unto bobi/Neurovore/Avancna keel over. And that's not gonna happen any time soon because they've been doing this shit for a decade.

>>96964208The length you're going to to push this narrative is suspicious.
>>96909592Didnt expect to see a thread here, I know nothing about the guy as a person but I found his stuff when I was like 10 and it altered my taste in monster design from there out. Pic related was a favorite of mine and I pull it out for rpgs when appropriate. I didnt back the kickstarter originally (and considering how long it took that was the right choice) but I picked up the book now that its finally done. Looking forward to reading it.
>>96965631Same, I remember seeing this guy first and then finding his stuff.>>96957801Now that I think about it, I wonder if the Vampire Hunter unknown will ever return, I think I remember somewhere that it wouldn't be a warped
>>96966084Vaccuthaxx? Tbh the old design is kind of really generic so I don't think it has much of a future but the basic concept might get revived depending on how much emphasis vampires get in the bestiary - esp if there's actual stats for the repeatedly-emphasized "Elder Vampires" since there's the constant reminders that the statblocks in the book are only for ultra-weak juveniles.
Currently reading the system from the near-final version (up to gadgets so far) overall seems like it's got a good balance of enough crunch to serve a wide variety of monsters without becoming hellish to maintain.I've got the idea of a monster distantly related to the Lester/Lesley, a thing that looks vaguely like a child before expanding into a horrid beast, as a sort of mix of Little Red Riding Hood subversions and the "luring prey" trope.
>>96946450You know, I'm not a big fan of pronoun shit, but I have to admit it it does kinda work in a setting where everything is some kinda weird monster that doesn't necessarily correspond to human notions of gender and sexuality.
>>96967983I think it's fair for the masses of organs and globs of slime, but the mermaid merrow going by it/its is a bit silly to me
>>96969893Forgot to add the image
>>96967983not only is everyone a weird monster, but casually rewriting your entire genome on the fly seems like little more than an afternoon’s work
>>96966522I know the design is pretty generic, but I think that works in it's favour, since it appears more naturally evolved I could picture it as an extraterrestrial animal that just happened to evolve to hunt vampires specifically.
>>96971187It's just a Khezu from monster hunter
>>96971260Nah, Khezu are more dumpy
>>96971260See that proves my point, bogleech apparently isn't actually a big fan of the Khezu - he thinks it's too generic and prefers the Gigginox, according to that one monster hunter review he did
Finally got to the world section.Was not expecting the Mentalist dean (p103) to pretty much be a Vtuber.
>>96909692Mortasheen creation as a ttrpg was always very weird.. According to bog he receive a mail from Cat powered ray gun studio who wanted to make a game of his setting. He signed a contract with them and lended his 'IP'. Apparently bogleech was just the artist/world builder and CPRS was the actual developper and bog didn't appear to really interact with them beside sending pic.. He did complain that the final result was nothing like he wanted.. Go figure... I think if bawg didn't decide to put genuine effort in writting the actual book we will never have mortasheen..BTW I ordered the soft cover of the book despite the whole thing sounding extremly amateurish and unprofessional I hope I will get one :1

>>96974879Dude you've been obsessively following bogleech, stealing his work and harrassing him and circlejerking his kifa thread with a piss fetishist and a paleoautist worm sperg, for almost a decade now. Could you fucking learn English already?This game looks like a hot mess to actually try and play, going by the stat blocks he's posted for free so far. Really seems more like an artbook with a gimmick. The complaints itt about the aesthetic and subject matter being grotesque are incredibly retarded. That's the setting. It's like being pissed that D&D is historically inaccurate and unrealistic.
I like bogleech and I love his art. I've followed his shit for a long time and he's only gotten better over time. I just wish he wasn't online all the time. I don't even disagree with his politics but he will engage with every nameless asshole over and over and over again and doesn't seem to get tired of it.
Is the autist obsessed about 'bobi' just one individual or are they a group of idiots who try to raid this thread. They mentionned Awful hospital discord server... Do they all come from here? I googled it and found something called noisy tenant server it entirely open BTW...
>>96909592>40 dollars for a PDFNo, John.
>>96985606dude we know it's you lmfao nobody else types like this.. idk who the guy earlier in the thread accusing some other random schizo of being you was but if you're going to pretend to not be yourself either learn english or start frequenting french-language forums where your quebecois grammar doesn't make you immediately recognizable
>>96985948It's not the worst price I've seen, but yeah its alot
>>96990779Really don't like this one at all. It feels too random like Jon looked around his room and picked the first three things he saw. It's a trilobite with googly eyes and whips coming out of the pupils, shitting out a green rubber chicken with a glowing core. What's the philosophy here?
>>96992163the philosophy here is the same as every ectosaur, which is to say it's bog trying as hard as he can to copy the design sensibilities of everett peck (and to a lesser extent fil barlow) because of his childhood obsession with the ghosbusters cartoons
>>96992163Suit yourself
>>96992573That one is good. Most of them are. It's just that trilochicken fucker that makes no sense at all.
>>96942248Bobi wants bogleech to fuck him. Why? Nobody knows.
>>96993857I see raptor, albeit a messed up one..
>>96927217Parasitizing on you (cutely)
>>96995698Parasitizes your asshole (cutely)Side note, anyone have a scan of the new Manticoil art?
>>96990779>>96992573>>96993857The point is that they're meant to be mismatched fossil chimeras, I suppose.I prefer Eviscergeist over Zappergeist in that regard which is just lightning-shaped. I guess eye-bulbs is kinda funky but also a bit outside the ectosaur theme.Also side note but I wish the opabinia elasmosaurus thing had the usual aura around its silhouette like the other ghosts.
>>96997843Hemogeist? i think it does have an aura, just a faint oneOr do you mean the one that is book exclusive and is basically a loch ness monster, I can't seem to remember the name of it.
>>96998304Brockenwight yeahIts cool, I like it but it is missing that faint glow of other ghosties
>>96998314I think It's "aura" of sorts is supposed to be the mist I think I remember it produces. I suppose since it's more stealthy the lack of glow makes a bit of sense even if it makes it come across as less ghostly then it's fellows.
>>96997716
>>96998610Thanks, I love this redesign, even if it does give the host body a goatse
>>96942066Continuing with this, what is your least favourite monster class? Personally it's Botanicals for me, even if I like some of them they don't have aesthetics or interesting enough lore to really seperate them from bioconstructs
>>97001312I think the vampires and devilbirds are pretty cringe
>>97001312I think arthropods are a bit more boring than plants flavour-wise but there are some neat designs.
>>96960624It requires a certain kind of sincerity to lean into things, but I enjoy it. The sort of fun you can only have if you give up on being 'cool' for a few hours.
>>96985406It feels like how I would act much younger, where I felt I had to argue with people, stopping that improved my mental health and gave me much more time to do shit I liked.
>>97003659Things like obsessively posting about a 40 year old dork who reviews halloween themed dog toys, for example. Your English is so bad even AI can't fix it, lel.
>>96998610After reading the whole page(only did for few monster like loid/lester one of my favorite) I feel its needlessly bloated. I don't think it was necessary to add a description of the monster if we already have a picture and the page are saved as PNG in the PDF.. Beside throwing a tl:dr on it personaility it tell little on the 'dragon head' mechanic which I learned only seeing the monster stat. It all verbal diarrhea, a habit that only get worst with bog (which is why awful hospital is now unreadable)BTW I don't like ectausor and festoid too gimicky and the ectosaure are ugly
>>97005396>ectausor>ectosaureJesus, how can you mess up spelling a word that badly in the same sentence, it's almost impressive.Also they're called ectophasms now
>>96909692fp trvthnvke
so how are the rules? i think everyone agrees that the teased statblocks are a bit intimidating, does the system delivers on them being actually easy to play?
>>97004150Good lord anon, I like the guy's work, I just think he could do with arguing less online - we all could. I'm not that one dude obsessed with hating him.>>97005529I think parsing them can be a bit rough at first, but once you know what your monster does its pretty easy to play since the game isn't super strict on things and it usually all boils down to a Xd10+Modifiers and sometimes you have a condition which prevents or helps stuff.Its certainly better than some attempts at pokemon ttrpgs - those can get messy with complexity, the complexity here is all contributing something to the monsters.
>>97003478I can see that, I just think the lore of the arthropods is better then the botanicals because I have a soft spot for gene splicing
>>96943159>seething illogical hatred>>96945890>>96949873
>>97011203

>>96998610Monster with cute face my beloved
>>97019353Would be soul if the eyes were a little less exactly like numemon's>>97014900Just an all around mess
I doubt I'll ever understand modern western culture's obsession with ugliness. This kind of thing is just unappealing.
>>97021114Yeah, they're neat
>>97023274ugly = maturebeautiful = kitsch cute = weab bullshit, report to policebut you'll have to do your own observation.
>>97023274Because monsters are cool
>>96927217And Dragon Quest ripped off Wizardry.The difference is Pokemon was able to refine DQ's dumbed down Wizardry ripoff into something that doesn't suck ass.

>>97023274I mean its half "the creator actually finds these features endearing" (which is why even the big monsters have at least one dopey feature on them) and half "mainstream monsters are so tame, so when you make your own stuff might as well make it only the weird shit you like rather than keep a balance".
>>97029018Something good about how the system works is, as a GM, I still get to do the monster creation players do so I dont end up feeling 'left out' of half the fun of this game.
>>97029568The monster crration is definetly one of it's strengths, which is to be expected since that's the main basis of the system
>>96909592I haven't got a clue what the fuck this is but the art reminds me of Manosinistra and I like it so I'll pirate it>>97023274retard, Japan arguably has a greater obsession with being unhinged and disgusting, some of the shit Japanese artists come up with puts everything itt to shame

>>97023274it's because of jews
>>97003651no, it's just bad.
but is the game any good?
>>97044328If you like making monsters and mad scientists then yeah it's a good system, if not then no you'll probably not like it
>>97044328Not really, no. All style, no substance.
>>97044328didn't play yet...
>>97048892Many such cases
>>97044328Haven't played but nothing smells wrong when reading. Main resolution is through rolling pools of d10s. Monster system does pretty well at not being super complex for a generally complex genre.
I only just found this thread and I mostly skimmed the weirdo outrage parts but to address some "concerns" I gleaned:-It's not physically/chronologically possible for anything I do on social media to have subtracted time from creative projects because I only doomscroll and shitpost during those times I'm unable to draw or write. Usually I get any "creative work" out of the way early in the day or late at night. More of my time is spent maintaining all my little plants and shrimps, and I cook meals so that takes up a few hours unfortunately.-When I first announced the game I was pretty clear that my job was only artwork and lore. The gameplay was always out of my hands and I didn't even get to see the system for most of that period, there's no way I could have pushed it out faster unless I made my own system and it would have sucked because I don't have any experience creating mechanics for a tabletop game.-As the credits clarify anyway, I didn't write the chapter on the villains. I only came up with their conceptual outline and visual designs :)-I'm not sure what other projects the one guy is saying I left unfinished. I didn't abandon my webcomic and I don't really have much else in the way of creative projects that I started, other than a single twine game and maybe some little article series? Those aren't meant to be like, my life or something.">>96980154still bizarre he drew and wrote all these backer extras and then never actually put them in the book like he was supposed to xg8kh"The backer monster reward tier in the kickstarter explicitly said they weren't for the book but for supplementary material. They're to be compiled into their own book, which I also talk about a few times in kickstarter update posts throughout the development :)
Anyway yeah it's pretty thoroughly confirmed that all the angst about me is always the same three dudes whose original reasoning wasn't actually true, but they can't get over the fact that I made fun of them for it anyway. The most obsessive one has those telltale grammatical/spelling flubs already pointed out because he's from France or something, I'm not sure.Anyway, ask me anything. I'm going to be stuck in place for hours just to print out more postage for book orders.
>>96992163I was going for a "Xenomorph knockoff if it were fossil themed," so it's a Hollywood style Velociraptor with a trilobite for a head.It would have probably worked better if I made the entire body look exoskeletal but I guess I was also going for the trilobite as a "helmet" or "mask," in which case that might have also worked better if it were pale bone colored.
Hey! Forgot to mention that i'm a fat gay bastard and my book is nothing but a coffee table book for hipster faggots who identify as they/them and intend not to fucking play the game in their lifetime.
I realize I'm talking to myself in a kind of old thread and all but it's all gonna be archived somewhere anyway I imagine, may as well squeeze in Creator Insights while it's possible.That bit by Morgan comparing Wreath to internet arguments was I'm pretty sure just to emphasize its stubbornness for roleplay purposes. It's a more familiar everyday comparison to make than "a fanatical cult" because how many people have ever run into an actual scientologist or something?Wreath isn't an allegory for any specific thing, except maybe clinging to the past or a fear of change, and you might glean this from its visual them of fossils - including "incorrect" fossils like the Hallucigenia one - but it's also inspired a little by people who romanticize their image of extinct civilizations and extinct species, failing to realize that they're enamored with an inherently fictionalized image of something actually unknowable.That's why the supercomputer progresses from wanting the old world back, to just manufacturing its own new one it likes better. You can also read into it as being about censorship, any situation where someone takes what they supposedly love and scrubs or ignores its flaws.
>>97053881Man, I remember saying this like it was yesterday.....the years fly by
I'm also a communist (fag/got).Did I also mention I love big fat cock in my hairy and pimple ridden ass?
>>97053934which one's your favorite monster senpai? :3c
wtf why is he talking to himself now?
>>97054263didn't care enough to register the "borglitch" username, so anyone can use it
>>97053934the fact that you've developed this intense psychosexual obsession with fucking bogleech of all people is just sad dude.
>>97054695It's always one of the same five sperglords. There's the creepy plagiarist foreigner who can't spell for shit, a guy who spazzes out about "the corruption of females," and a midwestern psycho who pushed his piss fetish on random tumblr chicks until bogleech ousted him. Maybe I'm missing another retard or two in there but they all hang out together and make an organized effort to ruin every thread related to his work. They all have a story about getting bullied by him for what they insist was no good reason or SJW reasons, but I disagree with him on fucking everything he holds dear and he's still nothing but civil to me because I'm not a schizoid bitch about it.
>>97053442Are any of the "advanced" devilbirds still canon, and if they are are there any current plans for releasing them officially?Also when the goddamn is my book going to get here (politely)?
I used to post with bogleech a lot and talk about Japanese movies on aim. We watched tetsuo together. I don’t think he’s a bad guy. He got mad at me on Facebook once over a bad joke and I’m afraid I hurt his feelings. That’s about all. I’m happy for him. He definitely has always had unhinged stalkers. I remember one uncomfortable guy from elfwood/deviantart (don’t remember) that used to post inflation porn of the Mario koopalings lol I hope he doesn’t get burned out on monsters and veer his interest elsewhere.
>>97056108Also I just looked through the book and it’s insane how much his art has improved. There was a time he used to draw his monsters the size of a small coin. It was neat.
>>97056108> I hope he doesn’t get burned out on monsters and veer his interests elsewhere.He’s in a place where people purposefully misrepresent his nature/monster interests (ew you draw translucent snails what a disgusting PERVERT) while being surrounded by others who have the same passion as he does, so he might not feel that special or inspired anymore from oversaturation. It probably sucks the energy out of him. I also hope he finds a new project to invest new inspiration in but this new book probably takes up a ton of personal time
>look up creator >has a kiwifarms thread >its literally kept alive for years from the one seething ESL pajeet neanderthal who made it >no one ever questions this>by random happenstance “it” zeroes in on a random unpopular 4chan board like a type 12 surface-to-air-missile >complaining about political correctness in a book about tentacle rape monsters and puking goblins>is still going to buy it Holy fucking KEK. why are they like this?
>>97056214>complaining about political correctness in a book about tentacle rape monsters and puking goblinsOn the other hand, I wonder what's the point of political correctness in a world where there are tentacle rape monsters and puking goblins. Like humans are extinct, you have eldritch creatures that don't care about morals at all running the place, but oh you must respect people's pronouns. Doesn't really make sense IMO but rather shows this guy is a faggot.
>>97056218I don’t think it’s meant for political correctness as a lot of the creatures you can’t really tell what sex they actually are. Stop giving into culture war brainrot. Pokemon does this.
>>97056224Don't pretend the creator is not a SJW-tard.>Pokemon does this.I couldn't care less.
>>97056235I’m not talking about the creator I’m talking about the book you troglodyte. Why are you defending creepy indians anyways? Did I strike a nerve? You people should be used to sewer cities and giga rats
>>97056218You need morals for any kind of story to envelop. If everything was chaos for storytelling reasons it would probably get really boring. Are you new to ttrpgs?
>>97056240>Why are you defending creepy indians anyways?What? Is the guy who made this indian? WTF you mean?Also, i'm too talking about the book too. Have you read it even? It's not only the monsters who have pronouns, and that's there because of the creator's political ideas. I bet the reason there aren't any companies in the city is because he's socialist or something. In any case i'm gonna pirate it, i'm not paying for wokeslop.>>97056244That's the worst excuse i've ever heard. Even if you needed morals for a story, which i'm not sure at all is true, that's no excuse to force current ideological agenda in a fictional world that should feel alien to us. In any case, it's a game book, there's no need for a story, you only need to define the world and rules and that's it. I care not for a forced storyline or your ideas of morality.
>>97056251Do you normally pirate things you hate?
>>97056251Jesus just go back to painting your nails and gossiping with the Mexican on kiwifarms you chatty girl
>>97056256Where did I say I hate it?The art is good, I would like to see it all and I would pay for it normally, but as I said, I don't pay for wokeslop.>>97056264You are delusional if you think that just because i'm pirating the book I must be one of the guys obsessed with him that people mentioned in this thread.
>>97056251I physically cringed reading this
>>97056266Enjoy your wokeslop game art little piggie! (Free wokeslop game art, may I add) Oink Oink!
>>97056251> What? Is the guy who made this indian? WTF you mean?>Also, i'm too talking about the book tooCome on man.
Is this book just all by one guy? That’s pretty impressive. It reminds me of boglins and those stickers you used to get from the candy vending machines in the 90s. Is it a d20 system?
>>97056301The battles take place in a circle like a little arena and mostly use a D10. It’s surprisingly simple with other elaborations to work off of. Theres other artists and writers but most of the writing and art work seems to have been the main creator
>>97056251>Calls it wokeslop>Still getting the bookAlright then, buddy.
>>97056251>I bet the reason there aren't any companies in the city is because he's socialist or somethingThere are literally rulings/options for running full venture capitalist party lil bro.This is your brain on dumbass tribalism.
>>97056251Im gonna be honest if I had to deal with people who behaved like this while dissecting everything I did for weeks on a doxxing forum I’d become the polar opposite too. It’s no wonder he’s super cagey and aggressive on his blog. The same thing happens for people who swing far right when they feel attacked by leftoids. It’s basic cause and effect. He’s completely justified for being an asshole in my opinion.
I can’t believe I haven’t heard about this. It looks like clay fighters 64. For that alone it is based as fuck
>>96939876Ah yes, John carpenter, the autistic director who famously wants to have sex with an inside out dog
>>97056334My guy literally has those stalkers ITT. Fucking wild reading all this. Hopefully they fuck off back to their trash heap shithole. Bog leech if you’re reading this still please start your second book soon. Strike while the fire is hot. Make an extra violent and sexual supplement like the book of vile darkness
>>97056342I don’t know if you caught it, but the cover art of the book is literally clay monsters. This game might be just for you
>>97056395SOUL
>>97056381This is a cool idea. I’d love to see something a little more in line with hellraiser or species with his ghostbusters style of art. He could stamp an 18+ over it and just offend absolutely everyone, since they’re just going to be mad at him anyways. Other supplements in the style of 3rd edition D&D could be cool. Like a plant book or a zombie book.
>>97056445It might go against his core ideas for the world he made. It seems like a lot of his edgier creatures were toned down to be more cartoony.But you never know. Limiting yourself as an author sometimes makes things more interesting for yourself. Especially if he’s only doing smaller books afterwards. I’m sure he’s thought of this already and has ideas for how grimdark he can get.
>>97056462Im sure he has no problem getting more gruesome or sexual. I’m actually surprised by his restraint, but he does have to sell books after all and probably can’t jump into that right away
Why did monster collecting in vidya go away? I loved jade cocoon and monster rancher. It seems like a slam dunk if it’s aimed at adults
Huh damn, I returned to this thread, didn't know Bog would post, neat.>>97053405BOGLEECH, REVAMP THE ROCK BEASTS AND MY LIFE IS YOOOOOUUURRRSSSS!!!
>>97056478It's probably because of Pokemon's domination of the genre. I suppose SMT would fit that bill, but it's more aimed at teens then adults.
>>97056266Woke art is propaganda. You're gonna be trans in 5 years.
>>97056269>>97056315>>97056334>>97057061LMAO people are so mad someone is pirating woke propaganda instead of financing it.
>>97057934alternatively, you could (hear me out here) not pirate and choose to not consume the "woke propaganda". that is a choice you're allowed to make, although you know you won't because this isn't about woke propaganda, but about your pathetic schizo obsession.
>>97057934Wow. he really does have stalkers. I thought anons were being sarcastic
>makes a kiwifarms thread and keeps it alive for years basically by yourself with borderline retarded levels on English >turns out you’re the lolcow yourself but the three to four other people you complain with are social rejects and can’t tell the difference anyways>stalks an artist on social media so hard anything cool relating to this guy is drown out by these few people in milliseconds>the kiwifarm thread has them literally praising the product, hoping for more Yeah this is fucking unhinged. Stay safe bogleech.
>>97059025Yeah this is insane. It sounds like he maybe knew one or two of the people personally? I’m not sure how laws outside of the UK work but couldn’t he get a restraining order or a cease and desist? The game book deserves to be in more hands but these handful of people are going to ruin any chance at actual conversation about it in open forums.
>>97058764I think that ever good GM should be good at taking things from any source and stealing them, even if they are woke. It would not be the first time I take inspiration form woke media and repurpose it for my games. Also, the more you seethe about me pirating, the more I will try to do so.>>97058956If equating everyone who doesn't like the guy with a few stalkers makes you sleep better at night, go ahead. I literally just found out the guy was woke because of this thread but I like his artstyle. So yes I will pirate it and you will seethe, just like I pirated pathfinder, nuD&D and maaany OSR material.Keep seething and daydreaming about me being indian or something.
>>97059046This is closeted gay levels of denial my sides are in orbit
>>97059046Ok we’ll let you know when LGBTQ+ BURNING CHURCHES FOR ILLEGALS: AN ANTIFA SIMULATOR comes out so you can pirate that game too.
>>97059046Mental illness
>>97059046>still poorly hiding his shitty english >returns after 8+ hours to defend itself You’re a fucking deject.
>>97059043The one guy non-english guy seems to have habitually obsessive behaviour where he’s monitoring where bogleech posts almost daily on multiple websites. For over a decade. You can go back anywhere and see it easily. Bogleech should just screenshot this thread and be done with that. He shouldn’t have to defend himself imo. Everyone should clearly see he has someone unwell clinging onto him and shouldn’t be worried.

>>97059043Never knew them personally beyond the broken english guy DMing me all the time and making fanart. For many years he just constantly confronted me with long messages about how I should never post "politics" not because he disagreed with them but that he just didn't want to see anything on my personal blog other than the bugs and monster art he wanted. When I finally told him that was weird and I blocked him, that was when he became a "lolcow forumer" and befriended the other couple people that mad at me.The thing is I'd still have normal friendly conversation with any of them if they ever wanted to. I don't hold permagrudges. I wouldn't even mention it. If they just knocked all that off and chatted me up about the bugs and monsters I wouldn't question them or embarrass them, I'd just move on along with them!
Well it was fun posting monsters anons, but it looks like the thread will be gone soon
Anyway, no the formatting of gender as pronouns isn't a "political" choice, it never was to anyone who does it but the people who get mad about it kind of artificially forced it into a political divide. We just think it's technically elegant, and in Mortasheen specifically what would even be the alternative? A format that goes male/female/other wouldn't make sense in a world where it's more normal to be a lichen colony than it is to be a regular human.I specifically keep real world current social issues out of Mortasheen because I don't mean it to express anything deep other than just what I like about biology, science fiction and old horror stories.More importantly, the setting takes place at minimum a million years from now in a world of biotech chaos where the central "city" is self-growing and self-regulating. Monsters outnumber humanoids a million to one probably, and familiar social systems like religious sects or corporate empires can only exist in scattered little pockets.The fact that it's in "a city" probably throws people, but the city functions more like an uncontrollable cybernetic jungle, so you have to think of it like that. It's like an alien rainforest where the descendants of humanity are setting up their own little colonies or living as feral hermits, only able to survive by conforming to the presence of monsters and ghouls, rather than an endless power struggle against them.It's not an anarchy because that's what I'd want in real life, but because it's cooler that way. If you like 40k then it's like if all the 40k armies dumped their unwanted shit on the same planet and forgot about it forever, but over time the utter chaos of that somehow found a steady harmonious balance.As for edgier/darker stuff, anything that was more grim in the old material is still canon, the only thing I scrapped was the more pessimistic angle it once had where normal humans were treated like pests.
Yeah thread is about at capacity I guess but it was nice to see a mix of honest feedback wherever it was really in good faith, which I think was most of this thread. Also good to know I'm not insane about the one stalker guy since for years he has attempted to convince me my dislike of him is entirely delusional hysteria and that I just need to listen to how normal he is.I was alerted to this thread a bit late by a DM but people are welcome to let me know if there's another one to answer questions in, or just send me questions anywhere. Currently working on some free content for the game and different ways we'll put out new monsters between book projects.
>>96966522Official word is that Bonnie (the one who did roughly half the work getting the book complete and does all the monster builds) intends to canonize every monster ever made, in some way or another
>>97059284>I'm not samefagging, Y-YOU'RE SAMEFAGGING!go back to kiwifarms, they're far more patient with autism there.
>>97056251There is deliberately nothing about current real-world ideologies in this book though. Did you really just see that NPC's have listed pronouns and suddenly believe there are plotlines about homophobia or something? Why would any of that exist in a setting where you can turn into a plant if you want to? The genders are just NPC character data, dude.

>>96940271>Playing AN (singular) evil character is nothing. Playing nothing but evil characters and constantly talking about doing evil things and fixating on evil actions are your primary interest, to the point that your whole identity is based around "evil" media and hobbies, to the point that everyone around you and who interacts with you is sick of hearing about your evil hobby, is just mental illness.Thats not true about bogleech though? He also makes non-monstrous characters as well, like in awful hospital.
