Why are they like this?
The meme is about male human fighters, though.
>>97143682The Wizard makes it worse because he's actively trying to be creative and failing while the fighter at least doesn't care
>>97143668DnD players are retards. Have you tried not playing D&D?
>>97143743No we will not play Shadow of the demon lord, Mork Borg or Thirsty sword lesbians
>>97143668>fantasy land nerd has fancy name because fantasy land had fantasy rome and its gone now so fantasy land nerds have fantasyland roman names Seems fine. What's the problem?
>>97143776I should hope so. Unfortunately D&D 5e is usually a gateway to this shit.
>>97143668Could be worse. Could be a Tiefling Bard named Sassy McWafflepants who wants to cast spells all the time and responds to every challenge with a stupid little song and dance.
I made the mistake of DM'ing an online game before. One faggot immediately tried to take over a local village and then tried to convince me to let him invent steam machines and gunpowderNever again
>>97143781>What's the problem?It's easier to criticize than create.
Isn’t Marcus a black name
>>97144833It’s Roman, you mong.
>>97143668>male human>Wizard>named MarkusStep aside, looser. This is a big boy campaign right now.
>>97144833Marcus is american blacks, Markus is white europeans, if we go by entertainment media
>>97144932I knew a black guy whose first and middle names were Marcus Aurelius. Cool guy, actually. Very smart and chill.
>>97143668>named MarkusFuck you, I'll make my ripoff of Magnus the Red and be happy about it.
>>97144932you're fucking stupid
>>97143668Who's they?
>>97145005Did he engage in a little recreational Christian martyring on the weekends?
>>97145005Mussolini's great-grandson is literally called Gaius Julius Caesar and ran for European parliament at some point.
>>97144833Yeah I thought the meme was that you have to be nice to the black man.
>noooo! your character can't earnt heir legend they have to be special from birth!!!If your fantasy isn't basically Arthur finding excalibur you're a faggot.>hurr durr MY character was born with a divine right to rule, is invincible, can blinding enemies with light, a natural genius at swordsmanship, and can just punch incorporeal ghosts>it's okay because he doesn't realize he can do it until level three :pfantasy roleplaying games should be about the hubris of man acquiring magical artifacts and then losing them at the end of the story. That's where all the dungeons and magic items in them came from.
>>97152884Who are you quoting?
>>97143743They freak out when it's not ran by a big corpo that all about gay shit they can make push gay trans right and all. Hell I think they shit themselves if you mention others like ACKS, C&C, SW, etc
>>97153115>>97155108Who are you quoting?
Okay but what if I want to be a warforged druid that turns into a werephasmid?
>>97143668let that guy play his human wizard named marcus, why does every character have to be "sir takitupdabottom" from planet uranus who has 10 pages of backstory nobody is ever going to read and stalls your adventure because he has to "epic rollplay" even when he buys a potion.
>>97143668Like what? Did you want to try communicating something?
>>97143668Special snowflakes think having their character be some obnoxious freakshit will somehow make them special. If you can't play interesting human you're not gonna be interesting because you're a gay purple sparkle demon.
>>97161560Ultimately sparkledog tiefling and human male fighter are both symptoms of the same problem Bad Roleplaying. The only diffrence is that the human male fighter has no delusions regarding his roleplaying ability.
>>97162029There is nothing bad about human male fighter. There isn't a rule saying you need to be something retarded.
Human male fighters are retarded, of course.
>>97162029>>97161560>>97159078
>>97143668The most embarassing thing about gaming desu is the idea that if you aren't some technicolor faggot tranny demon race and a gay gestalt troon class you're not being "creative."There is nothing more creative about an 18 horned troonkin warlock than there is some guy named Mark, Reddit, you should go back to drinking yourself to death and watching Rick and Morty.
>>97144833Yes, Niggers love to steal ancient white names, the "WE WUZ KANGS" meme is very real, which is why we see so many Marcus, Darius, etc. amongst blacks
>>97143668Because I want to play an oc of me (im a wizard btw and my name is marcus)
>>97144833>>97162485>jah-marcus>tray-darius>le-a ("lay dash ah" the dash don't be silent)Don't forget the compound names and other "linguistic innovations".
>>97143776SotDL is great, though.
kek good one
I'm gonna be honest with you guys, I don't understand the Marcus part. Can someone please explain it to me?
>>97143668like what?
>>97143697Male human wizards are my favourite characters. They have their own vibe that no other class/race combination has
>>97162663It's just a copy of 5e but with scat and less content.
>>97163778I think the implication is that people who play humans with basic classes have little imagination, and that the best names they can come up with a common real world names. To prove you have an imagination, you have to pick a pastel tiefling with a non core class and a made-up name
Bro will call you boring for playing human because he thinks picking a humanoid replaced his nonexistent personality. Just like their danger flag and sexuality
>>97143697>he's actively trying to be creativeWhat the fuck are you talking about? He's playing a baseline class.
>>97165868what do you mean by best? names don't have quality levels.
>>97162400This. When freakshit becomes the norm, the true individual plays a human from a specific nation or ethnicity.When extensive backstories become the norm, the true individual is a person of archetypical mystery.When multiclass spellcasting frankenbuilds become the norm, the true individual plays an unspectacular single-class without supernatural powers and still makes it interesting.When #currentyear identity labels and pronouns on pre-modern fantasy characters become the norm, you find a new group. Before you leave, call them all retarded.
