Have to disagree, pic related are the best designs I've ever seen for goblins.

>>97290521
No, Wilbur's jealousy of others drives him to do it for free.

I can't imagine a more wasteful and completely worthless thread topic. But /tg/ is a very retarded board. Maybe rpgs really do rot the brain.

Agreed, porcs for orcs but Labyrinth puppets for goblins.
>>
>>97291211
I honestly think Tolkien got it right by not really making a distinction between them (or at least making the line very blurry). Uncertain spawn of chaos and evil will always be more interesting than some anal taxonomy.

>>97291323

I like the goblins from Harry Potter

I agree on the taxonomy part, but I do prefer to split my goblins and orcs based on folklore.

Based on which folklore do you split them?

Germanic for goblins, Nordic for orcs.

>>97291948
You mean goblins look like they are represented in german folklore or are they literally german culture coded?

Oh, I missed the point where he got a name. That's cute.
>>
>>97292380
I tried to tell him to sage the threads he pesters, but he became so smug I had to call him a nigger and copped a short ban.

It really is some sort of sub-sentient life-form.
Unironically too dumb to be a bot.

Know how we joke about having autism?
That nigga thinks he's in good company.

Yeah, I think it started before Christmas, apparently other boards have resident morons, and Wilbur is ours.

You're trying to construct a boogeyman.
And it's kind of shit.

It also never works and never helps, and the energy you put into fighting your boogeyman could be better spent showing people how to make fun and interesting posts, instead of waging a war against, in this case, anyone who wants to easily troll people with just two words.
>>
>>97292575
As you can see, Wilbur doesn't like his new name.

Impressive.
I'm rather fond of Kruleboy orks, personally

>We argue about what the peak goblin/orc design is

Peak orc design is largely a solved problem: >>97291048 >>97291211 >>97291908 Porc.
Worst qualities of a boar, worst qualities of a man, their swine appearance gives them a little bit of whimsical "conventional" fantasy or fairy tale, but it can also be easily exaggerated and taken in a darker direction for grittier fantasy. It just looks right. It's completely appropriate.

I'm still thinking about goblins. I don't know what to do with them, personally.

Honestly admirable.

I like them too. They feel more older style. Before the hulk or human but green. They look like from Jacksons LOTR.
>>
>>97294766
That's just your average Norwegian.
>>
>>97295589
I wish Orks would get more variety in bodies and looks. Older art makes them look like a truly chaotic band of monsters.

>>97294766
Mortiis would unironically make for some kino orc or goblin warlock

Post minis, games or a book you own, that is if you do actually play games.

The Dwarf Head trophies make me think of Azog the Goblin, the Gob that killed Thorin's Da.

I always liked might and magic gremlins and goblins for being different between many of the games. The whole fantasy merged with science fiction thing allows them to get pretty goofy with the designs. Makes me wish they did a might and magic ttrpg. I heard rumors there was going to be one at some point but it never happened.

I like pic related. Porc but deformed and maybe a bit corpse-like.

>>97296736
The few times we made them for you, you let them die, Wilbur. Because, as we can now see here >>97296180 you don't actually want to do anything but complain because you're a nogames with no imagination.
>>
>>97296746
Always liked 4 and 5. 4 for having that whole dark fay curse thing with them and five for making them really pompous sci fi aliens conquerors. A lot of the quests in these games have probably influenced my campaigns for years at this point.

Correct. Something about the Uruk-hai Berserker design made 12 year old me really want to take a stick and swing it like an idiot.

It’s funny it’s something Tolkien knew boys would want to go around “playing orc” and the thought was depressing to him.

If the "games" listed in that thread are games, then quests are games, RapeApe.
