Do you include gooncore species like Asari, Drow, Twi'leks and T'au in your settings?>inb4 no, whyAlmost every mainstream scifi and fantasy setting has a waifubait race
>>98004199Yes, but I ensure the PCs never get any. They universally treat the PCs as sexual non-entities, or as their gay best friends. This is because I like to make players feel small, grubby and helpless on a personal level. Think of it as a slap of reality in the face, to contrast the big hero fantasy of a campaign.I justify this by saying "Guys, I don't do romance, that would be creepy and gay, you don't want to be cringe, right?" but have everyone around them fucking.Case in point, the Esaal (A/S/L), gorgeous technopath space elves. Their female navigators pilot ships by immersing themselves, naked, in a nanite bath and interfacing with the controls.They spend weeks to months in suspension, making them really horny when they come out.After rescuing a crippled Esaal ship, one PC helped the female Navigator in her recovery. When he visited her in her quarters, she was naked except for an open shirt (they have no nudity taboo, see) and casually discussed her recovery while thanking him for the food he'd brought.Then one of the ship's Vigilators, a big, muscular jock of a provost, came out of a side-room and asked if she was ready for "Round six". He was embarassed when he saw the PC, went "Oh sorry Sir, I didn't know you were..." and the Esaal told the PC "We'll talk later, I have something to get back to. Thank you for saving me, you're a great warrior and a worthy friend."He was so pissed, and (even better) he couldn't articulate why. I made sure that the provost had nothing but respect for the PC's heroics, and worked closely with him the entire time.
>>98004199>T'au>gooncore and waifubaitSecondaries.
>>98004199Yes because I like them. In my Spelljammer it's Reigar 'cuz androgyny does it for me.
>>98004208>Yes, but I ensure the PCs never get any. They universally treat the PCs as sexual non-entities, or as their gay best friends.This is incredibly funny and even though I know you are memeing, I really want it to be true.
>gooncore>not races that would be good Mafia LegbreakersDisappointed.
>>98004199You mean like in original settings? If I'm playing a Star Wars or D&D game it's more work to write out the gooner races. At least if you're writing a setting from the ground up you have to go out of your way to make a gooner race so I can question if you're fapping under the table or not.
>>98004229>ReigarI hadn't encountered these before but honestly that's kind of interesting fluff. They have a Spartan-like 'limited number of true citizens, who have only one focus, supported by many slaves and second-class citizen specialists' but having the focus be on art and all the militaristic stuff devoted to one type of those second-class specialists is quite novel. You wonder if the Reigar/Lakshu alliance was originally a more equal partnership but the Reigar came to dominate not through military but through an overwhelming cultural supremacy. It is definitely more interesting if the Lakshu have diverse forms modified to suit the particular Reigar they serve rather than all being sexy green punk space babes though, as against the thread topic as that might be.
>>98004199I don't call it "gooncore" because I'm not a puritanical weirdo who thinks if you enjoy seeing attractive women you must be jacking off for 16 hours a day.
You have to have sexy blue babes in any self-respecting sci fi. Putting in some myself for a game, I just have to choose between either spacemaster or just using GURPSFor fantasy you always have elves if nothing else.>>98004307This is sensible.
>>98004258I like them. Mine is a captain who the players think is their carefree buddy, flying around on her ship full of ladies (she's got 2 lakshu and a helot who appears to be perfect "damsel in distress" bait but who is, of course, just a soulless automaton). They run into her in various ports. They haven't yet figured out that she's the one who assassinated their first captain. That she's intentionally following them. Because she wants to blow up the sun, as her great work, and the PCs are unwittingly on a course to do so (the Astromundi Cluster has a sub-plot about the Arcane trying to destroy the sun in order to create a gateway into the Abyss and my players are unwittingly collecting the magical treasures required to build the artifact that'll do it, and Brighton wants to see it pop).
>>98004258>It is definitely more interesting if the Lakshu have diverse forms modified to suit the particular Reigar they serve rather than all being sexy green punk space babes though, as against the thread topic as that might be.Sorry to disappoint. Mine are sexy space babes.
>>98004351It's fine, it's fine. The little blurb I read made them seem into body-modding, lots of tattoos and piercings, so I think a fun extension of that would be to have them into magitech cybernetics and really extreme changes of form as an extension of the Reigar's love of art. But I can't deny they are clearly meant to be sexy space babes at heart.>>98004339This sounds very fun. They'd be a good PC race too honestly, very open motivation for just about any shenanigans you can imagine. And fun antagonists, because the tendency to crafting magical devices really lets you run away with encounter design if you want to.
>>98004199Dont care. How about them games? How did your last session go?
>>98004479Make a thread, or if you really want to derail, post about your own
>>98004479I described mine right here, anon: >>98004339Stop trying to police what other people talk about and being paranoid about "no games." It's pathetic.
>>98004514He just wants to shitpost
>>98004199>gooncoreit's called cheesecake, you massive faggot
>>98004643Calm down, unc. Times have changed.
>>98004199Okay, I’m sold on adding one to my next setting now, lol. But seriously, how do you include such a race and do it well, and how does it vary between science fiction and fantasy settings? Are there any other examples worth looking at besides the aforementioned ones?
>>98004238I mean, that IS kind of the point. I ain't up for playing someone's imaginary girlfriend, but at the same time it makes sense for the NPCs to hook up. So the PCs can't have sex, ever. Everyone else can.
>>98004760>I ain't up for playing someone's imaginary girlfriendUnderstandable, but you can just gloss it over and fade to black when needed.
>>98004760>the PCs can't have sex, ever. Everyone else can.Hey, it's about time someone ran a realistic campaign.
>>98004797Yes, obviously, but it's the emotionality of it that would be weird. With NPCs I can just give it 'broad strokes' since it happens offscreen, but I think a PC trying to woo an NPC would be super-gay.
>>98004199>woman>BUT BLUEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAGHHI'M GOOOOOOOOOOONINGWHAT KIND OF SICK MIND WOULD MAKE WOMEN BLUE IF THEY DIDN'T WANT ME TO GOON ALL DAY?!
>>98004814OK but your original post is like you are trying to suggest that emotionality but then enjoy cucking the PC out of it, which is a different thing.
>>98004807Not a fan of self inserting in escapism fantasy to be honest
>>98004849Oh, I very much enjoy rubbing it in the faces of the players. There are some players I cannot fucking stand, this is a way to work off my frustrations. Sure they can be the big heroes, but I don't have to pretend they'll be romantically successful too.
>>98004867I think maybe you should just get a normal group of like-minded friends, my man.
>>98004741Honestly you just need to make them attractive women with some sort of differently human trait like an odd skin color or cat ears. As absurd as >>98004825 sounds this is pretty much how it works. In the OP Asari, Drow, Twileks and Tau are all wildly different from each other but people still end up gooning over them just like that post describes. Tau aren't even attractive outside of fanart.
>>98004877I don't run campaigns for my friends, perish the thoughtI appreciate my players, but sometimes they annoy the fuck out of me. So this is the way I get back at them.
>>98004893That can just make things worse in the long run anon, maybe you should settle things outside of the table so that you all get a better time.
>>98004208What system? The space bits sound like Traveler but I could also expect Genesys.
>>98004975Mekton Zeta!
>>98004893I’m >>98004975 and I just got to this post. Why are you doing this? You sound miserable, you shouldn’t run campaigns with the intent to torment your players. Release them and let them find tables that will satiate their interests and then you can find players more amenable to your interests. You’re literally cucking them, anon. It brings you pleasure to see them romantically suffer. That’s netorare, which makes you the slimiest piece of shit I can imagine even if the source of that behavior is sympathetic.
>>98004999Ooh, that’s a good system though. Never played it, though - when it came time to choose between Mekton and BCG my friends chose BCG.
>>98005005I mean, *I'm* having fun. Also, I'm a fair-play guy, I tell them right from the start I don't do NPC romances.
>>98005017So… If I said my character had a fiancé, how would that be resolved? She cheats on my character or never comes up?
>>98005027Never comes up, and I would discourage you from having a character with a fiancee in the first place.
>>98005039NTA but if a character plays a hooker or literal android sexbot or something?
>>98005060C'mon man, no hooker or android sexbot. This ain't an ERP game, I told you.
>>98005084>>98005039I strongly disagree with your method of GMing, but I recognize I have no authority to judge you as I GM and play primarily over text with Discord gaywads. I only hope you can find a group that adheres to your sensibilities. Have a good one, gamer!
>>98005102Honestly the game sounds fine and the objection is reasonable so while this is a kind of bizarrely adversial way to approach it I think anon seems alright and the people in the game are probably having fun. I actually can get not wanting to GM for close friends because it's more interesting to GM for relative strangers, too. You can be more objective and are more likely to be surprised.
>>98005060Why would anyone allow you to play a hooker or a sexbot in a normal RPG? You're going to get weird looks from the others at the table.
>>98005119it's just a what if for a game supposedly including "gooncore" space babes
>>98005143Anon, the race of SM matriarchal bondage elves is for the party to encounter, not to play as. It's not about your AGP fetish
>>98005117I think anon’s approach would have been broadly accepted in 2010 or even 2014, but there’s been a very overt trend towards scrubbing “titillation” from tabletop and being reminded of that will poke many raw nerves. That’s why people generally seem to be turned off by his explanations. It’s the state of the world we live in.
>>98005157It's not really about 'titillation' and more about 'emotionality'. A lot of modern games are supposed to be 'safe' in that they don't make you feel negative emotions. Even losses are somewhat padded, so it's interesting to see the opposite, more old-school approach.
>>98005172Except this isn’t the opposite approach, it’s a flat ban on it - in fact, he’s flaunting the content in the player’s face and “enjoying” the frustration it causes. If this really was an old-school approach, there’d be an avenue for getting one of the waifubait aliens.
>>98005172Yes, although I think this is kind of an outgrowth from the 'player control' or GM-less systems that started to become popular in the indie scene. For instance even Apocalypse World and its many spin-offs, which does have a GM, restricts that GM's actions to specific, known moves like the players' and allows for a great deal of player input. In a good group those players bring negativity and problems on themselves when it's good for the story. In a bad group, or probably more specifically with immature players bent on wish fulfillment, that 'player control' is just exerted to avoid negative emotions.
>>98005153There is a weird thing I'm noticing with waifu races in that they seem to often be technologically advanced. Even Drow have robots and cybernetics in their lore and are very magically accomplished. Asari are the dominant governing species in Mass Effect when they are introduced. Tau are a unusually hi-tech race in a schizotech setting. Elerians are advanced with unique psychic technology.I wonder what mental link makes colour skin space babe = advanced tech.
>>98005195Adding onto this because I’m Phoneposting due to being at work, but If you really wanted to be old-school about it then you’d want to make it a whole slew of prerequisites to get a sexy alien babe GF. Like how it’s tough as hell (and actually impossible if you roll poorly) to become a Paladin in, say, HackMaster. This of course is all ignoring the fact the GM explicitly says he does not want to roleplay PC relationships, but a proper old-timey approach rewards player effort while still making much of it down to luck and skill.
>>98005213Space babes are cultured, and the easiest way to denote culture in sci-fi or fantasy is with technological superiority.
>>98005213elerians are feudal and therefore always lag behind in technologytau are only a "waifu race" in memesI'm not disputing your overall point, which is kind of interesting and deserves exploration, but a couple of your examples are bunk.
>>98005213If you spend your day strutting around looking sexy, you are either advanced enough to afford it, or you're leechng off someone else that is advanced enough to cater for you.
>>98004199Not only does my system have monster girls, my favorite type of monster girl is exclusively female (though they can reproduce via parthenogenesis as well). Of course I generally prefer any species in my system to be conventionally attractive if your inclinations are fitting for the gender of that species you're looking at, or if they're in the Funny Little Guys category they should look whimsical and aesthetically appealing. It's fantasy, why shouldn't the standard be something you want to look at rather than something revolting?>>98004246My system has those too, except they're dinosaur italians with a dinosaur mob.
>>98006698>My system has those too, except they're dinosaur italians with a dinosaur mob.Super Mario Bros (1993)
>>98004199Pretty-looking exotic species with brightly colored skin is a classic space opera trope, so I felt it was mandatory to include my take on it in my SF setting, along with other stock species like the proud warrior race guys and bugs in space.
>>98004199Which game?
>>98004208(the players have never actually noticed or cared, since this doesn't affect killing monsters or finding treasure. they were all just kind of confused when the DM randomly mentioned not including sexuality for no reason.)
>>98004514No. You will do as you are commanded.
>>98004867Why are you playing with people you can't stand?
>>98005153nope, everything that exists is an option.
>>98005157that's not why we're making fun of him kek
>>98004199I think Mass Effect is massively overrated across the board, but I also find almost zero sexual appeal with the Asari. Genuinely have no idea what peoppe see in them; they look idiotic.
>>98004199The conventionally-attractive-by-human-standards race is a staple, so I don't see any reason to leave it out. Bonus points if you have multiple, if not the majority of other races, fall into this.
>mothfuckas itt need their alien waifus to look like humans.YOU ARE WEAK
>>98007201Bro you can't be saying this shit and posting something that still has a human body with big tits and a fat ass. That is ridiculous. What's nonhuman about this? Cute little anime hooves? A cartoon face with no discernible features except big eyes? If you're calling people weak you need to be gooning to 8th dimensional unfiltered saya no uta type shit.
>>98007201>>98007271
>>98008663The afterglow smoke and extraction is key to affection.
>>98007121This isn't to say that every member of the race must be an attractive model, but rather that, given an average specimen of the other race, an average human can reliably be convinced to be attracted to it. You must not be required to pull the "hear me out" clause when explaining why you are attracted to one of these races.Calling them "gooncore" is cringe as fuck, though, and I rebuke that label.
>>98004199>>98004208>One minute differenceYou just wanted a thread all to yourself to flex on how you cuck your PCs out of pettiness, just to get a rise out of the board. You're not clever.
>>98004199>Do you include gooncore speciesI feel like DnD Dragons should count as gooncore/cheesecake because the females always assume sexiest form imaginable whenever they decide to play with humanoids.
>>98008904
>>98008908
>>98008922
>>98004199>gooncore species
>>98005213being highly magically or scientifically advanced is an easy way to justify walking around naked. You can also have naked barbarians and cavemen, but they're not usually major threats and are looked down upon, races like Asari and Drow are the ones looking down on YOU as the stupid cavemen barbarians, not the other way around. A drow matron mother walks around with her tits out in a spider-silk bondage getup because she's dripping in enchanted jewelry and layered defensive spells that make it so you'd have a harder time slicing through steel full plate than scratching her naked vantablack ass. Decadent, advanced, beautiful, and cruel societies like Melniboné are a big influence.
>>98004199>gooncoreI hope you lose your testicle in a tragic badger accident
>>98006720FUCK GOD DAMMIT THAT WASNT EVEN THE INTENT ITS THAT THEY WERE GRECHOROMAN IN THE PAST AND ARE BASICALLY ITALIAN IN THE MODERN DAY BUT YOU'RE FUCKING RIGHT FUCK YOu
>>98004208How do your players feel about having a DM with a cuck fetish who likes to torment them like a sociopath
>>98009649This Ain't No Video Game
space babes are good for you and should always be included
>>98010069ai is bad for you and should never be included
>>98004214There is more waifu art of the Tau than official art.
>>98009737Surprisingly they love itThey feel that the campaign has a lot of verisimilitude
Anon, all my races are gooncore. Even the orcs.
>>98010069I should go to that guy's palpeon to see more.
>>98005157Funnily enough there's recent precedentThe most recent G-Reco movie has a scene, right at the there, where Aida (the love interest) is missing her hair scrunchie and is looking for it. A crewman, Kerbes, casually passes it to her (since it was left in his room). This causes Bellri (the protagonist) to go insane and decide to fly off in the Gundam, leaving the ship to embark on his new adventure.This is real, by the way. It's a Tomino work, so the characters behave in fucking weird ways.
>>98004199Elves are very sexy and also incredibly promiscuous in my milieu.
>>98010181Lineage 2 orcs can get it.
>>98010096AI is a godsend for space babe art albeight, barely anyone made/makes it otherwise
>>98004760What will you do, cuckanon, when the PCs fuck each other?
>>98010351I mean they're all dudes, and none of them are homos. I guess they could cyber-fuck each other on their own time if they want, but it's really not my problem.
>>98010207Forgot my clip.
>>98005213>>98005229>>98009043It also plays into the romantic fantasy of being good enough to"marry up." Princesses, magical elves, advanced technology space babes, ESPers, female genies, beast girls, etc. are all forms of "better than normal" romantic interests. >>98010436>>98010207The G-Reco situation is weird. Aida and Bellri are actually biological siblings.
>>98004199nocause thats retardedi only include a bunch you probably dont wanna fuckand the bara husbandobait kronk himbo race.
>>98004199>>98004208Should have waited longer before replying to yourself so it would be more believable.
btw I'm one of that guy's players, we all make fun of him in the GC (he doesn't even know there is one, it's never occurred to him to ask lmao) for trying so hard to "cuck" us in an imaginary game thatv we barely care about and completely forget exists the instant we're not playing lol. he's the only one of us who isn't happily married too. kek
>>98005039>I would discourage you from having a character with a fianceeThat would be a big red flag. What kind of GM wouldn't want a player character that actually has ties to the world? You would come off a s really suspicious if you tried discouraging someone from making a character with a family.
>actually player characters shouldn't have relationships or ties This is from the 1% of the board that even claims to play games btw. No wonder you get the dumbest takes you've ever heard here.At least we can post hot babes
>>98011612Trying too hard
Yeah, the OP definitely is LMAO
>>98011640NTA but I sort of get itSometimes you want players to build up their relationships 'on the table' rather than having elaborate backstories.When running the old Pathfinder Adventure Paths, especially Age of Worms, I generally preferred the PCs to be COMPLETELY new to the setting i.e. They're just novices with no ties to anyone important. Anything like that should develop organically.
>>98011892Who are their parents?
>>98011907They don't matter for the purposes of the campaign, no?
>>98011924Oh, so they do have ties.
>>98012052I mean, how so? Their parents aren't going to be important and will never show up, presumably. >"My dad was a hedge mage and my mother was a seamstress."
>>98012072You don't know what the players will do, and you don't know if their parents will be important to them.
>>98012128But isn't that the point thoughThey're entirely irrelevant, so they're a non-factorIt wouldn't make sense to drop something like "Oh you're actually the King's bastard son" on a PC
Huh, not a single porn goblin yet.
>>98012145No. The players decide what's relevant to them.
>>98012240The DM's the one running the game, though. It's like, it's fine if you want to find another game, but I think it makes more sense if the party doesn't have any backstory that complicates matters.I've always felt that "This current adventure is the most important thing in the lives of the PCs", nothing before that is as interesting or as relevant as the campaign unfolding right now.
>>98004741Just make them beautiful as that what matters mostI had a race of elves known as royal elves in a older setting of mine who were pretty much the gooncore race and they actively encourage such behavior for a rather depressing reason, it somewhere in my old notes but I can remember some of it by memory The Royal elves or Children of the Sun as they call themselves, were described as tall and beautiful race who that live within majestic marble cities, viewing all the other races with arrogance and disgust as royal elves were known for their intelligence, their arts and culture were advance and their arcane was unmatched. It was said due to their massive ego and arrogance that they constantly refuse to help the other races in times of need for why should they help the shorter lived races? but it was due to this that it was said their very own gods punished them by causing great devastation upon their homeland, plagues and invasions from outsiders, gnolls and orcs being the most common had decimated their numbers to a near extinction but they fought back the invaders and found themselves low in number, so low that any offspring among themselves would be inbred within a few generations no other choice the last members of their ruling council made a rather desperate edict, to reproduce with non-royal elves, humans mostly being the most suitable candidate, I took a idea from the elder scrolls where interspecies offspring be the mother race so naturally this edict was for second and third born female elves, first born had to marry a another male elf and male elves were outlaw from marrying and reproducing with a non-elf (although there was a loophole by classing them as a "slave" though) and so female elves went out to find anyone suitable they could find by any means In recent times of the setting this was over as their race has return to more stable numbers but it still remains in memory and a few rather dirty jokes about female elves and sex pests
I found out there's a mass effect homebrew of WEG's star wars which would be cool to play. When you remove reapers and associated elements it's a pretty generic setting, so it's not difficult to do classic space opera plots in it while still keeping the right flavor
>>98012986there's also a Genesys hack if you're into that sorta thing
>>98010313Looks like shit
>>98004238Xhe's been posting variations of this exact copypasta for at least three years. Kinda sad that xhe's never played a game in all that time.
>>98013078Genesys has never clicked for me, but I'll have to give it a real chance some time
>>98014079Genesys is built on the bones of FFG Star Wars, and people like that system. You can ask around in the Genesys general if you have questions.>>97841240
>>98014122I know, FFG's star wars was how I first learned about genesys. The proprietary dice and incredibly segmented presentation of the rules (want to look up alien race X and class Y? Better break out book A and B in addition to the main rulebook) makes it more difficult to play than I suspect it actually is if you have the information and tools you need collected and accessible. Can be done and I've seen some good spreadsheets, I just haven't done it yet
>>98004199Any species is gooncore if you know what you are doing.I mean consider pic related. And yet Corran Horn managed to hit off with one and it was great, except his fur allergy that came out afterward
>>98016446>Corran Horn
>>98005119In SWN, which it sounds like they might be playing since it's like traveler but not traveler, it's one of the default backgrounds.
>>98005213It was even true on earth. The Egyptians walked around topless being sexy, and we're technologically superior.Not repressing your goonerhood leaves you mental capacity left to do more productive things. But it you refuse to date your goonlust, then horny is all you can think about, leading to a vicious cycle of repression and obsession.
>>98005213Crest of the Stars Abh too, even though they're spaceborn genetically enhanced humans.
>>98012163>Mentioning goblins out of nowhereChatGPT version 5.5 post
>>98012406Why would you want to avoid complications? That's the only reason the game is fun, or worth playing at all.
>>98017492If it gets in the way of the core gameplay loop of dungeon crawling and stuff, it ain't fun
>>98018241Ah. One of those, then.
>>98019396Good gameplay can carry without story. It won't be deep, but it can be a simple fun, where ultimately the "story" is the highs and lows and twists and turns and narrow scrapes of the player(s) experience playing the game.Good story does not fix bad gameplay. Ever. Literally impossible.Same for good aesthetic, no amount of tone setting and immersion let's people overlook bad gameplay for at most a couple weeks of fooling themselves.To extend Carmack's metaphor, a porn that's well-written, well-orchestrated, and presented cinematically beautiful, but is zero percent sexy and titillating is... Not porn. That's an Oscar-winning big-budget art house piece, and while I know we're on 4chan god I HOPE you're not gooning to Schindler's List.
>>98004199> GooncorePlease die
>>98023321NOW that said, I will say there's something Carmack is missing in his insightful analysis, which is that BAD story or music or art or whatever can ruin good gameplay/porn, if it makes the gameplay/sexy unintelligible, is to noxious to let the audience enjoy what they like, or directly conflicts.If you take a nude woman in the throes of penetrative passion and then slam so much psychedelic image processing over the top that the subject matter is unrecognizable, it's no longer functional as porn.If you play incredibly distracting and annoying music over the top, or make the story theme of a non-con fetish film incessant preaching about how the viewer is an awful horrible person who deserves to die for wanting to watch it, obviously it would be very hard to enjoy that too. These are matters of taste, so there will be exceptions, there's no accounting for freaks. But safe to say most of the intended audience will be turned away.And if the thing to be enjoyed is the cruel ministrations of a sadistic dominatrix, but while she's going through all the motions technically correctly the character is incredibly meek and mousy, totally unbelievable and lacking the fundamental bullying spirit the erotic fantasy requires, no amount of riding crop ball busting is going to sell it when she's squeaking and flinching with every fleshy crack. Maybe somebody into gap moe might like it, kind of like how Sonic 06 is a buggy horrible failure of a game where you never "go fast" UNLESS you're an any% speedrunner. But it's certainly not delivering on the intended experience. It's just sometimes when you fuck up something hard enough in just the right way it makes something new and good, that's Hegelian dialectics in action.
>>98023373No he's using the word in the correct sense when it comes to twileks and asari. Races created by perverts for the explicit purpose of cooming.>b-b-but it's zoomer lingo!But you know what it means, so communication has been achieved, you're just mad about thee method.
>>98023321>Good story does not fix bad gameplay. Ever. Literally impossible.The ongoing success of walking simulators, Final Fantasy, pragmata etc suggests otherwise. In fact it doesn't seem like the story has to be particularly good, just "there."
>>98023581>Zoomer getting his panties in a twist, because he got called out on talking like a retard
>>98023321Stellar presentation can carry an otherwise mediocre game and still be memorable in the long run.Case in point: Jet Set Radio.
>>98012163Goblins eventually migrated to the "fuckable" space, but might otherwise still count. OP is likely referring to original races/species that started fuckable.
>>98023658>Twi'leks>BLUE = GOOD>RED = BADWhat they meant by this?
>>98023624There's plenty of games with mediocre gameplay that are remembered for their good story or presentation (Case in point: just about every CRPG: nobody's remembering games pile Baldur's Gate or Planescape Torment for their gameplay, but for the characters and story), but there's a big difference between a game where the actual gameplay aspect is nothing to write home about but gets the job done while you enjoy the story or visuals, and one where the gameplay is genuinely bad. In the latter case even if you are enjoying the parts of the game that don't actually involve playing it, the whole experience gets dragged down by the frustrating parts in between those segments.
>>98023689The one notable female Sith Lord (before she was purged from the canon) was Darth Talon, a red Twi'lek. Go figure.
>>98023691>nobody's remembering games pile Baldur's GateI think the fact you can immediate leave the starter dungeon, nosy around, loot some wands and take on fights way above your level with some clever setup and trap baiting is actually an extremely memorable part of BG2's gameplay and something almost wholly lacking in modern day RPGs (including BG3).
>>98023689The actual answer is green>GREEN = SPACE BABEAnd they look best in light pink and pale violet anyway
>>98023689>>98023776Some professional nitpicking:Intense-color body paint is the easiest to do. Doesn't matter the color, if it's well-defined, then it's very easy to make sure it properly covers the body and natural skin color.Green is most often used, because the pigment mixes really well with various foundations in low proportions, while offers good covering and even when it smudges, it still maintains proper covering.Which is why green space babes were always a thing - it's the easiest and most effective make-up. Technically yellow is better, but it is not as good in the whole "this is an alien" and if you do it poorly, once it starts to smudge, you only notice when it's too fucking late and the whole shot has to be repeated.
>>98023658Not just the fuckable space, goblins migrated to downright slutty.It makes lore sense, anything with a life expectancy like that needs to literally breed like rabbits to keep their numbers up. And unlike kobolds they're mammals, it's not a "lay a clutch of like 12 eggs then have the entire warren fertilize it" situation, they probably have litters but they still have to have penetrative sex.
>>98024371Also the whole "goblins are chaotic and have fewer inhibitions, so this can naturally translate to their sex drive" bit.
>>98023701>The one notable female Sith Lord (before she was purged from the canon) was Darth TalonNobody tell him
>>98024419Are you implying Kreia/Darth Traya is bangable?
>>98023938that's neat, I didn't know that
>>98023689>surprised that good guys and back guys are color-coded in star warsthat said Aayla instantly makes my diamonds while Talon does nothing for me so blue = good actually.

>>98004199Bumpfag thread
>>98024799Not bumpfag, because bumpfag doesn't go out of their way to talk about cucking their PCs.
>>98024610>back guysAh, the twi'lek alignment system: frontal sex or backshots.
>>98006698>my favorite type of monster girl is exclusively femaleNigger if they aren't exclusively female they aren't monster girls.
Exclusively female but they must be slime blob tentacle monster of soft body soft texture and gooey touch to the feel with tight orifices and cilla lined membrane folds. There aren't males seen because the males are tiny and so are not a challenge in the mating competition department while catering to my other demented kinks involving micro sized people at the same time.
>>98010147So you're saying that the primary sources don't depict them that way but the SECONDARY sources do?That's a proper riddle right here... why could he have mentioned secondaries... I wonder... hm.....
>>98024837From behind is the correct answer, the lekku isn't just for show
>>98026706Lekku are just alien pigtails.
My favorite gooncore species is Italian.
>>98005213it ultimately comes down to the white nerds' obsession with asian women. Look up techno-orientalism
>>98026900Excellent choice, they really are the all-timer goons.>>98026935But Asians weren't more advanced than Western Europe in the Orientalist period. Seems like a stretch.

I wonder if OPs characters are all disgusting Igor looking misshapen lumps of flesh ravaged by plague? If his character is too handsome he might be jerkin it under the table. Which is gay.
>>98004199Yes.
>>98004199Happy Mother’s Day! What does one need to consider when creating the cultures/societies of such races? Especially if the whole society only functions because of a spider goddess like with the Drow, or if you want to avoid that kind of scenario, lol? And how do said societies view motherhood?
>>98026835Yes, but pigtails are cute and will instantly make the alien design appear more feminine.
>>98027154Romance for NPCs, not for the disgusting ugly PC scum who would die of overstimulation at the thought of touching a woman
>>98027722that thing is disgusting

>>98028036Fair, I suppose it comes down to which bad reputation you'd rather deal with.>>98028084OP asked about goonerbait, may as well jump in the deep end. But if you'd rather have some that are slightly less literally made for porn, xenomorphs are right there too.
>>98024610Purple is my immediate boner color. I dont get it, I dont even like star wars, but purple Twi'lek girls just do it.
>>98027729I think you have some things to work out with a therapist anon, taking out your bizarre spiteful fantasies on your party is strange

>>98024776>gentilesKek a slightly unfortunate name...
>>98004199What’s the best way to do good, or at least more morally neutral, Drow/Dark Elves, especially if they’re still largely matriarchal? What twists have you personally seen or done?
>>98032789Separated from their cultures. Matriarchies are all evil and retarded kakistocracies that are only held back from pure evil by incompetence. So you could also make the character a girlfailure or retarded in a way different from women's general retardation.
>>98004307Based and truthpilled
>>98014122>Teh Dave artwork spotted in the wildDamn, that’s some kind of feeling
>Tau>Goon characters let alone a raceStop fucking calling them that, they are not goon characters they are full on super aliens in 40k that will out class the Imperium and also have cool as fuck battle suits and dronesFuck off with your goony Tau memes
>>98034441But those dick-sucking lips!
>>98034467>But the lips Your point?
>>98029300They changed that, it's no longer full of brain.Now it's just an erogenous zone.
>>98034441Counterpoint: no.
>>98034903I don't think twi'lek central nervous system has ever extended the full length of the lekku. It seems to be confined to the base of it. They can have parts of their lekku amputated and not suffer brain damage.Lekku also serve as extra fat reserves, like a camel's hump. So housing part of the twi'lek central nervous system was never their only function.
if the race is nonhumanoid but it is something you goon to because you have a niche fetish fixation that the design panders to, does that count as a gooncore race?
>>98004199Surprised that OP didn’t mention Tieflings. How would you improve on them without making them deformed or some shit like that?
>>98035134Tieflings, Asari, Twi'leks, Orions etc. all belong in metal bikinis.All settings. It is the law of nature.

>>98037647It's a bumpfag thread anyway, and this stuff is what bumpfag doesn't want to engage with.
>>98035039Anything that can be considered sexually attractive to any person anywhere is a gooncore race. Sex doesn't belong in RPGs.
Everybody draws drow far too tall. D&D elves are short to start with, and drow are one of the shorter subraces. By the numbers given in 2e, it is outright impossible for a male drow to be taller than a female human.The cure to the drow menace is to pick them up and take them away. If your fighter has exceptional strength they might not even become encumbered to any degree.
>>98038229>D elves are short to start with, and drow are one of the shorter subracesNo one cares about your """facts""", faggot nerd. Dom girls should be tall because it's impossible to take short people seriously, so Drow are tall. All human male PCs are at least 6 feet tall, and to dominate them the Drow lady must be taller than that. Therefore Drow are at least 6'1" before heels. QED
>>98038269Counterpoint: The sheer comedy value of an extremely misandristic, sadistic sexy dark elf woman in spidersilk fetishwear and high heels who's still only 5'1 and 90lbs is hilarious.Yes, they can brutally torture and beat down the males into servitude because they're even more short, but the fancy black fetish whip doesn't work so well on the party of 6'5 muscular fighters, barbarians and people who're used to being brutally maimed by a high CR monster every thursday.
>>98038269>to dominate themGay, drow are for dom loss.
>>98038330>dom lossA man of culture. When she is dominant over others but a submissive vanilla freak in the sheets with you is even better,
>>98038302people literally do not understand that the level 19 drow cleric domme is better because she's short. it's hotter when the fighters are 6'5" AND she's 5'1". physical strength has nothing to do with it
>>98004199Cactus with tits.You can look, but you can't touch.
>>98006947you will go back to ai farming
>>98008775>>98008663so he had gay sex with this worm beetle?
>>98038823Not gay, but yes.
>>98038227BDSM is literally an RP based kink though
>>98038330This is the correct answer.
>>98038229>>98038269Drow being angry womanlets that try to act dominant but fail because they're small enough that you can pick them up and carry them around is cute, though.
>>98010181>>98010268Lineage 2 Orcs are TURBO based.
>>98004199Asari are NOT goonbait, I have no idea why anyone finds them attractive.
>>98040835I think it might be the boobs.
>>98040835>this all-female race of blue human holy prostitutes, explicitly based on the Syreen of Star Control, are NOT goonbaitLet me guess, your evidence is "I personally don't find them attractive?"
>>98040835This, but for Tau
>>98040863>>98040877It's their hair. Or, "hair" I should say. Not only is short hair simply not attractive on women, Asari have weird skin-covered bone things pretending to be hair. They also have to manually add eyebrows with makeup or tattoos and don't have ears, I accept the logic of the "too many aliens look human" argument but when you deviate too far but try to present them as attractive anyway, it just turns out weird and off-putting.>>98040944Same principle applies, they're close but they don't have noses.
>>98040969That's interesting, though. You don't protest Twileks being on the list, and they also have weird flesh hair. Is it simply because the flesh hair is longer, and therefore allows your preference for long hair to overlook it?
>>98041006Lekku are much longer and actually move, so it helps. Also their headpanties hide their lack of human-looking ears, but they do still have something there. They also have eyebrows.
>>98040969But Tau don't have hair and all look like >>98034441Why did these fishmen of all things catch the eye of gooners, why were they chosen to be reworked into being redhead anime waifus. With twi'leks, there's no question at all for why they're a waifu/coom race and you know Lucas was in on it
>>98040969>Not only is short hair simply not attractive on womenImagine being this wrong.
>>98038330unfathomably based. Regeardless of size drow women are made to end up naked and chained up at the feet of their human conqueror
>>98042294>unfathomably based. Regeardless of size drow women are made to end up naked and chained up at the feet of their elven conquererFixed.
>>98040969>Not only is short hair simply not attractive on womenDisgusting opinion.
>>98041014Twi'lek still look kind of weird to me when not wearing their head-panties. The head-panties cover the point where the lekku connect to the head and hide the bald areas of their head, which makes it look more aesthetically pleasing.
>>98041397No fan art of Tau, looks like Tau. It's always altered specifically to be attractive, so calling them goonerbait is simply wrong. Asari are not only presented as attractive to the audience, the setting treats them as such, desired by all species.>>98042404It also covers or obfuscates their ear cones, but the fact their non-hair isn't rigid, they have eyebrows and there's at least SOME structure where ears should be, they're less off-putting than Asari by a longshot, and while they are the sexy slave girl aliens they're not presented in-setting as somehow attractive to every species.
>>98041634>>98042357To be fair short hair is a weird coin toss between daddy issues and a bad time and not in a fun bad time or just a regular woman who prefers short hair looks.>>98042294Do women see elf men as desirable as men see elf women?
>>98038229>By the numbers given in 2e, it is outright impossible for a male drow to be taller than a female human.Bruh.2e has variable elf heights based on setting.Forgotten Realms on multiple occasions lists elves as the same height as humans, and has several references to drow women being tall.Qilue is outright stated to look like a typical Drow matron and she's 6'0".Drizzt's mom is described as a womanlet who gets thrown around by her gigachad partners and she's like 5'2".It wasn't until 3e forced the Greyhawk heights onto every setting that it got stupid.The fact 5e also went with the Greyhawk heights is frankly stupid given they also wanted FR to be the default setting.
>>98042654>Do women see elf men as desirable as men see elf womenYou missed the period where every teenage and young adult girl was talking about the male elf from BG3.In short: yes.In long: Always have. Even 40k used to have references about women throwing themselves at Eldar pirates because they recognized that.
>>98042298rare to the point of non-existence.
I find it hilarious that fan artists created their own kind of busty hooved space babe and then call them Tau for some reason
>>98031087Another name for a more central lake monster is the Chavarin but that sounds like Duvalin and also it goes after women so doesn't work well for monstergirlification.
>>98042667>2e has variable elf heights based on setting.But by default the game uses the Greyhawk heights, as seen in the Complete Book of Elves (and in the PHB for High Elves). The setting-based overrides only matter if you're using a specific setting.
>>98042713Which is why I added the point of 5e fucking it up by saying FR is the new standard but using the Greyhawk heights.Though I should clarify, 3e actually kept tall elves for FR (FRCS and Races of Faerun both mention this) though did make Drow shorter for some reason despite that not being the case before (a particular manlet not withstanding). 3.5e was when FR elves were shrunk (PGtF).
>>98042675I missed bg3 then.Might give it a shot if it goes on sale on gog. Is it genuinely a good game and are there genuinely good things to take inspiration from it for my setting(s)?And who in your opinion is best girl?
>>98042675>every teenage and young adult girl was talking about the male elf from BG3.That's cause he was a vampire not cause he was an elf.
>>98042667>QilueShe's not typical, she's part of Ed Greenwood's tall Amazonian naked woman sex fetish.
>>98042667Matron Malice is either at or just under 5 feet tall. Drizzt thinks to himself at one point that he overtops her by several inches, and he's about 5'4". For it to be "several" he'd have to be somewhere between 4-7 inches taller than she is I'd guess, or it'd be "a couple of inches" if she was taller. Drizzt's sister Briza is described as unduly large and powerful for a drow (and drow women are already larger than the men), and Briza is still significantly shorter than 6'.
>>98042692Draeneifags saw a race of blue aliens with hooves and were like "whatever, close enough".
>>98042736That's not what my niece said.She had a brief period where she was even talking about maybe Sun Elves have a point with their being superior to other races. >>98042756Seven Sisters says "typical" when describing her like a Matron. While certainly written by Greenwood, if anything that makes it more pure IMO.
>>98042817Blue (or purple or white or red) space aliens with a hot accent and can even pass as tieflings? No wonder draenei are so popular.
>>98042824in fact wow draenei is the one thing blizzard stole (tieflings) and actually improved. They are significantly less cringe than stereotypical D&D tieflings.
>>98042692If it has a face vagina it's a Tau and if it has a horse cock it's a Draenei.
>>98042860>stereotypical D&D tieflingsThose didn't get calcified until 4e, which came out years after modern draenei were put into WoW.
>>98042877What if it has both?
>>98042877>horse cock it's a Draenei.trash troon fetish. Always has been.
>>98042667>Drizzt's mom is described as a womanlet who gets thrown around by her gigachad partners and she's like 5'2".I don't recall anything in the Drizzt trilogy implying that Malice is particularly short for a drow, though she is about 5' tall.There is another matron mother, Matron Hu'nett, who is described as short even by drow standards, and she's 4 feet tall. Which goes beyond being a womanlet straight into "who is this sassy lost child?" territory.
>>98004732Neck yourself.
>>98004199>lust-provoking image>time-wasting question
>>98004877That's impossible for retards like him. Anyone like him isn't normal. Anyone normal isn't like him.
Tau = vaguely Asian culture with focus on giant robots = people viewing it as the weeb faction = lol what if we drew the weeb faction as cute/sexy anime girls = snowballed into beong seen as a gooncore waifubait raceThe fact that they really want you to join them and look nicer than other factions probably adds to the fantasy
>>98043742>focus on giant robotsRemember when their focus was combined arms and auxiliaries, and taufags endlessly laughed at Imperium's titans and how dumb they were compared to more realistic forms of combat? I do.
>>98043309She's mentioned as "tiny Malice" among other matron mothers. Malice made a deal in one book, set in the past, with House Del'Armgo, from them she got Briza by letting Uthegental (the 6'5"+ magically modified gigadrow) fuck her. When other drow matrons find out about it, they spend several paragraphs laughing their asses off about "tiny Malice" getting split in half by Uthegental because she'd barely reach his stomach.Salvatore was probably indulging a kink.
What's the most waifu race that's also the best goon race(either SomethingAwful poster or evil hechwomen)?My money's on goblins, they probably post funny.
>>98043998Yeah, Taus' original thing was being the mil-scifi faction, with "realistic" future tech, as opposed to the Imperium's walking battle-cathedrals or Eldars' weeaboo space-magic. They were all about drones, aircraft, practical-looking (by 40k standards) hovertanks, and and relatively small battlesuits that gave individual soldiers heavy firepower and maneuverability.Eldar were the original weeb faction, with guns that literally shoot shurikens, katana-shaped power swords, and titans and look and move like anime mechs.
>>98043309>There is another matron mother, Matron Hu'nett, who is described as short even by drow standards, and she's 4 feet tall. Which goes beyond being a womanlet straight into "who is this sassy lost child?" territory.Uooh, bratty drow matron! Rape-correction is needed!
>>98044780Eldar had a lot of stuff taken from a variety of old/exotic cultures.
>>98044796I feel like Eldar were supposed to be the Ancient Aliens meme at first.
>>98045091They're fantasy high elves in space so no wonder they lift a lot of elements from there.
>>98043742>Tau = vaguely Asian culture with focus on giant robots = people viewing it as the weeb faction = lol what if we drew the weeb faction as cute/sexy anime girls = snowballed into beong seen as a gooncore waifubait raceI mean there is also the uplifting primer...
>>98042860>>98042824What did the Draenei do right that tieflings don’t do right?>>98043309>>98044732This is somewhat hilarious.Then I remember I’m a manlet.What books describes this?Are they actually good reads and which bad ones to avoid?I already find drow women hot and like the idea of “I can fix her” already.
>>98042736>>98042654Tons of women love male elves. They're tall cocky but elegant men, of course they love that shitWomen were schlicking it to Elric before they knew what bishounen meant
>>98047707Glad that fine tradition continues to this day.
>>98038409
>>98046783I haven't red the prequels, but the original Dark Elf Trilogy (Homeland, Exile, and Sojourn) is fine by genre fiction standards. The first book in particular gives a pretty in-depth look at drow society, and it's actually fairly functional compared to some later depictions. They're still evil and prone to scheming and infighting between different houses, but they do have rules in place to keep the whole thing from collapsing into a free-for-all, and their society isn't nearly as ridiculously lethal as in some depictions. When Drizzt enrolls into the drow fighter academy, I fully expected it be a meat-grinder where most students are killed off over the course of the training and the handful of survivors are made to fight each other to death in order to graduate or something, but it was nowhere near that lethal. The implication is that the instructors tacitly approve students assassinating each other, but only if there's plausible deniability or no evidence linking them to it. And even than it doesn't happen very often: during Drizzt's entire tenure in the academy (which IIRC was around 10 years), of his class of 20 students one was executed after trying and failing to kill another student, one was stabbed to death in his sleep without any witnesses, and another died during sparring (the book doesn't specify whether it was an accident or intentional, but it seems the instructors at least judged it plausible enough to have been accidental). A fourth died fighting monsters in the later part of their training where the students took part in patrols in the Underdark outside the city. 20 % fatality rate over 10 years would be very high by the standards of any real military academy, but some other sources make drow kindergarten more lethal than that.
>>98010207>>98010436>>98010814Finally get to post this again.
>>98049253That’s pretty surprising.Now how about the juicy lewd bits?Are they grossly exaggerated by recollecting readers?
>>98026951But they or, more accurately, the Japanese, who were the source of much hyperventilation were technically advanced in the '80s, when much of this nerd shit got its roots put down.
>>98038379
>>98049479It's about drow so there's a lot of leather-clad women with whips who are very keen on using them, but it's not really described in enough detail for it to really feel very erotic. There's a point at Drittz's graduation when there's an orgy and he almost gets molested by a Matron, and then by his sister. The 2nd book has Malice very clearly getting turned on by being mind-linked to the reanimated corpse of her former lover while it kills stuff.Malice being 5 foot tall is really only implied by her being mentioned to be a head shorter than a 6 foot tall mindflayer another Matron has as an advisor, and the really tiny drow Matron is only a minor character in the first book, and has a brief appearance in the 2nd where she does at least get to channel her inner smug loli at Malice (Malice stabs her to death later, though).Though if you get off imagining small dommy mommies intimidating and whipping people, then the fist two books will probably do well. I know I found it hot that there's two instances of heavily pregnant drow near the beginning of the book (Malice obviously, since the book opens with Drizzt's birth, but when she later foes meet Matron Baenra, the head of the most powerful drow house, she's also revealed to be heavily pregnant, and is specifically noted as having way more children than most drow).
Some of my settings has nothing but goonbait species because it's for ERP so everyone is goonbait and others don't because they're a bout a big space war and the only species I have bothered with are humans, the aliens they fight and nebulous third parties that you don't meet but whose politics dictate who gets sold weapons and who gets held responsible for trying to glass the other guy's homeworld.
>>98004199A bit, but mainly for my own enjoyment (as setting dressing, never to display for my players).Because no matter how many years I have on this hobby (and how many characters of any gender and colour possible): role-playing flirting or romance with my fellow nerd friend will always feel awkward as hell. So, better to leave everything as PG-13 as possible (except for drama, violence and horror, of course).
elves should be space babes as well, no reason to exclude them

>>98051250>>98051266So twi'leks willingly debased and victimized themselves for the sake of survival and as a trauma response. They chose life in chains over extinction.
>>98049253>>98049479>>98049627How did you guys go this far without mentioning chad'zak>A notable difference between drow and their topside cousins lies in their fertility rate. Most elves have very low fertility rates, in keeping with their long lifespans. Drow mothers, in contrast, give birth as often as the more fertile races, such as humans and orcs. Their greater fertility reflects the crushing mortality rate among drow infants and youngsters. Drow females might give birth to ten times the number of babies than the females from other elven subraces do, but this does not mean that they end up with more adult children.>It is common for pregnant drow to carry twins or even triplets. Even in these cases, multiple births are rare, as the strongest of the fetuses feeds on its siblings in the womb. Pregnant drow can sometimes feel these mortal combats take place in their bellies. Such prenatal battles produce in their mothers a euphoric sensation, referred to in the Undercommon tongue as chad-zak. The feeling is infinitely stronger than that produced in the bedchamber or by any intoxicant. Without it, it is doubtful that drow women, selfish to the core, would ever deign to suffer the inconveniences of reproduction.>Chad-zak occurs up to four times per multiple pregnancy. It usually happens early in the third trimester. Mothers who experience repeated chad-zaks usually feel them in quick succession, once every one or two days. The final chad-zak indicates one fetus's successful slaying of its rivals. This process does not result in stillbirths; the slain are absorbed back into the mother's body.https://www.realmshelps.net/charbuild/races/elf/drow1.shtml
>>98051310Yes and logically the most evolutionarily fit Twi’leks who would have spread their genes the most after the cataclysm would have been the most subservient and debased ones.
>>98051338>drow women only reproduce because the sensation of their own babies killing each other in their womb makes them cum 1000 times harder than sexI am convinced Robin Laws only wrote this because someone dared him to out-Greenwood Greenwood.

>>98051417I've heard it was actually because he learned a bit about shark reproduction which inspired the twins/triplets killing each other in the womb bit. I don't know where the infanticide orgasm stuff came from but I wouldn't be surprised if was inspired by a meme about abortions giving women orgasms.

>>98048002One woman attempted to create an animated Elric fan film on her own in the 70's, failed, but in an artbook about it she mentioned how Elric would make any woman's mouth water.
>>98051110It's implied by a questline in the Old Republic MMO that most near-human races, including Twi'lek, were created as slave-races by the ancient Rakaata (ancient evil Dark Side using aliens) by genetically modifying humans near the end of their reign. Though the Dawn of the Jedi comicbooks contradict that, since they take place earlier in the timeline and already have Twi'lek around.>>98051266Ryloth is a tidally locked planet with a narrow barely habitable zone around the terminator, so it's a rough place to live. The native Twi'lek are split into clans that frequently fight each other for resources and take captured members of enemy clans as slaves. When they noticed that other species find Twi'lek women attractive, off-world slave trade become the planet's major source of income, at least until it was surpassed by drug dealing. Twi'lek society is very patriarchal, so even before they started selling their women to offworlders they were basically considered property of their clan even when not actual slaves.

>>98038379>spoilerThat is perfect.I never knew I had this and if I did I didn’t have the words.>>98051310>revolver chamber>magazineThe twilek is nice. The gun there not so much.I don’t even consider myself much of a gun nut either.
>>98052564How do you get this body type
>>98052621>The gun there not so much.Cylinder revolves to present a new power cell as an old one is burned out. The magazine holds the Tibanna gas that is used in all Star Wars blasters. It's not a real gun, after all; there's a perfectly good sci-fi explanation available that I just made up, and you can't prove me wrong.
>>98052621>I don’t even consider myself much of a gun nut eitherClearly not, if you're confusing a laser blaster with a real world gun. Idiot.
>>98052621>revolver chamberI recognize Belisarius Cawl's handiwork when I see it.
>>98004307This actually needs to be discussed more. The public perception's relationship with sex is awful.
>>98004307Some races and settings only exist for the author's fetish and to be jacked off too thoughever, that's just a fact
>>98010096If you hate AI you should be happy it's showing up. In fact you should join in, helping it spread as far and as wide as possible. After all, AI that learns from AI ends up fucked up. It's why AI images all had that pissglow just from the brief Ghibli art phase. The more social media posts and articles and books end up all sloppy the worse the next gen AIs fed on that shit will become. Next thing you know the damn things won't shut up about goblins.
>>98042654>Do women see elf men as desirable as men see elf women?Humans and elves just happen to be catnip for each other for some reason. Funny how that works out. Good thing Half-Elves breed true in most settings.
>>98004208This but I take it further. I also narrate everything the PCs do from the getgo. If I ask for rolls I roll for them. If I ask what they do I give them specific options and tell them which ones are allowed for the scenario at hand. Pregens are used always, and I make sure each player plays a specific one (I give them a choice but I lie and say that one was already picked so they end up exactly with what I want)As the session goes on I even start speaking for the players and telling them what their characters say. Then I start speaking for the players themselves and narrating everything they say and do out of character.Inevitably the players will leave but I keep going, I keep running the session narrating it like they're still there. Then when it ends I put up my gamefinder post and do it all again next week with a fresh group.I play online with no webcams so they can't see my giant boner during it all. And that is how I've run every game I've ever DMed for the past 6 years.
>>98044764Goblins would do it, with their minimal inhibitions and whatnot.
>>98044764>>98056990>SomethingAwful posterYeah, goblins would be the most likely to troon out and then kill themselves
>>98056532Not much to discuss. The most bloated military super power of the last century was built primarily for the most regressive and puritanical rejects of the previous century's regressive and puritanical super power. So their culture became the default culture, as all military super powers tend to.
>>98056663One of the things that keeps me up at night is the possibility that cognitive surrender might not be deterred by model collapse. If, even as AI output degrades in quality and coherence, society just blindly follows it because the magic thinking box is to be trusted.
>>98057035And now they're losing to people in mountains. Again.
>>98056771I think settings where hybrids can’t be produced would make it more original than most at this point.Not that I hate half elfs.I want to make a half elf but truck-kun hasn’t hit me yet.
>>98053171Seriously, what the fuck is that thing? It bothers me.
>>98057241Well, if Space Marine 2 is to be believed, it spins. Either while the weapon fires (auto bolt rifle, melta rifle) or as it's charging (plasma incinerator). How does this work when it's connected to a scope?
>>98057267Brits should be required by law to own guns. I'm sick of hoplophobes trying to design guns for wargames.
