Orcs have changed....
>>746099119>Side cutYawn
What's even the point of orcs now?
>>746099226Same as it was since the very beginning. Fantasy black people.
>>746099226Krumpin' gitz
This was always inevitable as soon a they started being more and more like humans. Notice how gnolls, despite formerly being similar managed to slide backwards to being even more inhuman because they don't look human.
>>746099194idk why western character designers are obsessed with that hair style
>>746099119Into fantasy mexicans witch you think would annoy real mexicans but my good is D&D fucking gayer then the local gay bar.
>>746099119The only ethnically homogenous of this particular set of race showcases, by the way.
onions el orco me gusta jalapenos y tacos!
>>746099524It's synonymous with being a strong independent woman and western devs are fucking obsessed with those>>746099461Now they've made them both niggers and spicsTruly the most heinous of all fantasy races
>>746099752>Now they've made them both niggers and spicsSo just Americans?
>>746099524The hairstyle is associated with being nonconformist, and punk, techno music, cyberpunk, and alt fashion.
>>746099990if something is commonly nonconformist doesn’t it stop being nonconformist?
>>746100106Not really, if a nonconformist only cared about that then their rebellion would be superficial and short-lasting.
>>746099226>>746099461A quite brilliant bit of fantasy historical revisionism really. With modern interpretations of orcs being an oppressed/previously oppressed minority, people who are raised on modern fantasy will interpret all previous incarnations where orcs are evil monsters as unreliable and racist versions of the actual events of what actually happened.This is what happens irl btw
>>746100576Except orc shit is people just letting literary criticism give them schizophrenia, while the Starship Troopers movie was supposed to be about propaganda by the word of the director.Not necessarily that the bugs are good guys, mind you, but that the movie was conceptualized as a propaganda film from a future statocratic regime and various inconsistencies, absurdities and plot holes are supposed to hint at the "real story."Namely:>The Federation isn't nearly as just, rational and orderly as it likes to portray itself as>The war with the bugs is a war of aggression on the part of the Federation, and it possibly justified it with a false flag attack or blamed a natural disaster on the bugs>The bugs are far more intelligent that the Federation would like to admit>The war is going far more poorly than the Federation would like to admit>And, in fact, the Federation is probably losing the war and signing up for the Mobile Infantry is signing up to die pointlessly in a meat grinder, hence the reason why they needed to produce the propaganda film in the first place
>>746099524Its a “counterculture” hairstyle. You’re drawing attention to the idea that your character is an outlier in society, that they care little for norms and traditional conventions. Now in theory you could do this anyway, beyond bullshit as superficial as hairstyle and secondly, a majority of the time the character is just an asshole anyways instead of someone with actual ideals and a cause to rally behind.
>>746099990The hairstyle is associated with being an overeducated faggot.
>>746099119We must retvrn
>>746099119>orcs are racist because they remind me of blacks>make them mexicans instead
>>746099119The best part of TTRPGs is none of this shit matters as you get to create your world how you see fit. Official shit be damned.
>>746099524easy to draw and in games it's more performance friendly and does not clip with outfits.
>>746099119I prefer Japanes pig orcs.
>>746099119And the flanderization of DnD for the sake of pandering to whimsical retards continues...
>>746099119Orcs were too problematic for your average Elf fan. Thus they had to domesticate them >>746099226To be Green Elves, like what all fantasy races devolve into with modern fantasy
>>746102572I prefer boar orcs.
>>746099119D&D is the perfect example of why you should gatekeep your hobbies as hard as you can.
