So she put things in her game that existed in tabletop games, video games, and real life for pretty much forever. What is the issue here?

Women have fantasies, too. A fair few involve escapism or wish-fulfillment, like men. They may get different things out of them, but they are fantasies nonetheless. Nothing wrong with that.

no one has ever done this who wasn't horny for it.

>>98812290
Because no-one cares about an ugly woman. An ugly woman is worse-off than an ugly man, because at least an ugly man is physically competent.
And everyone actually loves beauty. Anyone who says that isn't, well, she's a lying bitch.
>>
>>98812290
Same reason you put chadly Straight White Human Male Fighters™ and gods of war in yours.

Not necessarily. Citation: (You)

>>98812772
That damn 4000 year old feminist propaganda.
>>
>>98813790
You are a scholar on par with Tariq Nasheed.
>>
>>98813806
You're right. Female deity of war, completely new idea. Unthinkable. Anachronistic propaganda. Zero reason to include such a thing in a fantasy game aside from an obsession with modern politics.
>>
>>98813828
Your position being that 2026 feminist sloppaganda is the same thing as whatever old literature you can dredge up and cram into your redditor-hole? Yeah, I'll get tired of your redditism before you unfuck yourself and get a clue.

>Spend entire game trying not to get fucked
Why are women like this?
>>
>>98813969
It's not a woman thing, it's a pedophile thing, female pedophiles simply are allowed to get away with it, so she didn't bother to hide her power level.
>>
>>98812290
You mean, like Athena?

>>98812762

V:tM seems to do well.
>>
>>98814114
Playing with woman ST and majority woman group is eye opening experience, the "vampire politics" goes next level and can give you unhealthy paranoia about ulterior motives of every women you interact with. Not in the incel way, but more as a respect towards worthy opponent that isn't afraid to wear mask and attempts to make you perceive them in certain way. Women are scary, and in setting with goddesses of war you should make sure to appease them long enough so you can help their enemies get upper hand. Also, chocolates that totally doesn't make woman DM butt bad and openly supporting not only women's rights but also women's wrongs seems to bring positive karma to character's actions.

>Implying Gygax was in any way in touch with the reality or the TTRPG scene past the year 1983 or so
One of the great things about internet is that Gary could go from "completely forgotten no-name" to "the founding father of the hobby"...
... and in the process leave a digital footprint as to why he was "forgotten" in the first place.
Which still doesn't prevent faggots from cherry-picking his retarded posts anyway, but at least there is still the broad context of him being retarded

>>98812290
because sexy

>>98813857
No, the position that putting female deities of war in a fantasy setting with religion jnspired by popular understandings of ancient religion does not require any influence from feminism, just the faintest exposure to ancient religion
>>
>>98813857
>dredge up
Are you suggesting that ishtar is obscure? Kind of a self own.
>>
>>98812290
Maybe she wants you to seduce them?
>>
>>98813828
It kind of says something that when Athena is going to battle she goes into Zeus's chambers and borrows all his toys. Daddy's favourite little princess, never has to worry about doing or accomplishing something by herself.
>>
>>98812290
Femme fatales are a classic and there's nothing wrong with them, and while goddesses of war are retarded, it is not something I'd even remotely associate with female GMs specifically. I honestly have no ide-
>DM
Oh, I see. Have you tried not playing Dragqueens & Dogshit?
>>
>>98813969
sounds like a typical bodice ripper
>>
>>98813857
Ishtar, Minerva, Athena, Enyo, Bellona, Nike, Victoria, Menhit, Neith, Aerfen, The Morrigan, Badb, Nemain, Jiutian XuannĂĽ, Kali, Pavarti.

The last three aren't even ancient goddesses, they're still worshiped today.

>>98812982
Pretty much this.

>>98814222
When was he ever forgotten.

to be raped

MUH IDPOL WARS
>>
>>98814114
V:tM isn't a game, though. It's a veiled Mother May I with explicit prompting that the session is all about deceit and manipulation, various forms of abuse both emotional and physical, hate, jealousy, greed, lust and revenge.
I hope I don't need to put a finer point on those facts to make you look at the connection.
>>
>>98814222
The best part is that he wasn't even the most central or significant figure at the "founding of the hobby". And that's already granting D&D way more credence than it deserves. Children have played make-believe literally since before our species had differentiated from our cousins.
>>
>>98814896
I'm a conservative who has 'defeat the forces of communism' as part of my job description and I'm the one who listed all the goddesses of war.

OP's just a fucking retard, there's no IDPOL here.
>>
>>98813670
Bullshit.
I've seen plenty of ugly women hook up with guys, get married, and then are all set for life. An ugly man has to continue working until he dies alone.

Aegis is definitely hers, she just borrows his breastplate.

I like the bit where she punches aphrodite in the tits so hard her heart stops.

Athene is far older and more powerful than that latecomer Zeus.

Did you know Aphrodite was the highest Goddess of ancient Sparta? Now you know!

A good game with sexy babes? Don't mind if I do!

Please post a primary source suggesting the Spartans did not perceive Zeus to be the king of the gods.

Zeus was a bold, beautiful, independent black woman until the pinkskins stole her story.
>>
>>98812762
He was right but the kind of D&D he designed and played had far less to do with social theatrics and far more to do with logistics, number crunching and dungeon crawling.

I should probably finish my coffee before posting lol

rules based, organized play is different from children playing make-believe, otherwise every sport would be Calvinball.

Tabletop RPGs owe their existence to military wargames, tools meant to teach generals how to think strategically, manage troops and supplies or let them work out specific scenarios.
Specifically, Napoleon had a game he made his generals play by pushing tokens around a lawn.
HG Wells took this concept and made a commercial game out of it, Little Wars, which was played with common tin soldiers.

this eventually trickles down to TSR's first wargame, Chainmail.
people playing Chainmail were hungry for more dramatic final duels between their high tier named characters, more fleshed out scenarios than just besieging a castle, and serving these wants eventually became the first edition of Dungeons & Dragons.
>>
>>98814222
That's great and all, but is he wrong though?
>>
>>98819091
yes.
gygax's group played the game like it was Rogue or Diablo: pure dungeon crawling and looting, DM actively trying to wipe the party at every opportunity.

even today with all the Old School Revival nostalgia, only a small minority of tabletop nerds play that way.
>>
>>98819103
So he's right then. Improv theater about quirk chungus demonette girls farting rainbow lollypops at santa claus are as much a part of the TTRPG hobby as gays pretending to be dogs wearing leather thongs on a tuesday afternoon pride parade are a part of the LARP hobby.
The apple may be moldy, but the mold is not the apple.
