I've got pulpshit fatigue. Fantasy comic bookiness and pulp are beyond tiresome to me. Ugly as shit art, retarded as shit plots, dumbass pulp tropes like one dude solos an army of 50000 and makes a Marvel quip. Always some dumbfuck scifi or lovecraftian content thrown in too. I want grit, realism, and down to earth plots. I want characters who act like real people, not capeshit actors. I want a plot with substance, not mindless style. I'm sick of it all, everything from Howard to Warhammer to Stench Crusade. Any other fatguys feel the same?>pic related: dog shit pulp warhammer comic from the early 00s
>>97211011Talk about the last campaign you played or better yet ran with details, describing when these problems set in and why
>>97211011Okay, there's a game you should go play in called "traffic", it's perfect for boring miserable assholes who hate everything special about fantasy.
>>97211011Why don't you try reading an actual book, dumb fuck.
>>97211011Style is substance you brainlet.

>>97211011>dumbass pulp tropes like one dude solos an army of 50000 and makes a Marvel quip>I want grit, realism, and down to earth plots.You've never actually read any real pulp (i.e. magazine stories from the 20s and 30s), have you? The average pulp story was something like a guy who got trapped in the wilderness and had to fight a badger, or a drunken sailor getting into a dubious underground boxing match. Even the fantastic stories often had relatively gritty plots and competent but plausible characters. Doc Savage and Tarzan were absurdly powerful, but they weren't the norm.
>>97211011Nope, I love it. One guy holding a bridge to save others is what being a hero is all about. If you don't like the characters in made up stories being better than you and putting you to shame, maybe you should stop reading books like that? Coming on here and whining about it won't make all the bad books go away.
