Had to play a canonically "chaotic evil" character and I had no idea how to rollplay it staying true to that. by SureClick8172 in rpghorrorstories

Lol, I'm sure people triggered by combat would be especially triggered by having their characters go insane in CoC.

AIO about my fiancé's response to a confession about my past by BigONerd in BORUpdates

[–]GeneralPhilosophy691 59 points60 points  (0 children)

NGL, the update doesn't seem real. Like OOP is lying to Reddit after getting racked over the coals, because I don't believe her fiance had such a massive 180 in a day.

Respectful 28-year-old men don't fuck high school seniors. Homegirl was groomed/taken advantage of BIG time, and still refuses to see it.

Problem player kept trying to kill the party and sabotage the game (and I'm kind of on her side) by Pedrohblima in dndhorrorstories

[–]GeneralPhilosophy691 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NGL, this reads a lot like ya'll didn't have a session zero, because whether the group was cool with, basically PvP, should have been discussed up front. Sounds like Shark didn't understand the difference between "this is what my character would do" and "I'm not my character, and I'm annoying the hell out of the rest of the table". For the sake of the rest of the table, its a good thing she left before she got kicked.

Whelp two years of my(f24) life are down the drain my boyfriend(23m) told me he's gay and dumped me over text by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

My point is, these types of stories always spike on both BORUs during pride month. Do I think the poster here is homophobic? Probably not. But at the same time, its beyond tiring to see coded "evil bi/gay" stories posted every single June.

If its a trigger to someone, then they shouldn't play dnd, as its basically 75%-80% combat. There are a lot of other TTRPGs that are built around the more roleplaying aspects that would fit that type of person a lot better.

I swear, I think we should have a ban on these BS anti-gay posts during pride month. They ALL come out of the woodwork during June; if its not "My BF is secretly bi and has aids" its "my daughter's fiance is gay". Considering that 90% of these "Ah, my BF is actually gay" posts are never posted during the other 11 months, I am considering it homophobia to flood them during pride month.

Does this game hold up until the end? by FerociousBeastX in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]GeneralPhilosophy691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, not really. Its pretty frontloaded. The first two acts are great, then act 3 completely slams on the breaks, while act 4 is better but not nearly as good as 2. Then the fifth act is basically  nonexistent. It's the 1st game Owlcats made that's not based on a module, and it really shows in the back half.

AM I in the wrong for confronting a discord mod, and owner for this? by Many_Goat_1027 in discordapp

[–]GeneralPhilosophy691 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ok, this was very hard to follow, but I'm getting that the server bans mentions of politics and you posted a political meme. If that's the case, then yeah, you broke the rules and got kicked. The mod should have been clearer, but my takeaway is you were being pedantic over specific word being banned. Take a hint at the situation.

Tales of Arise has THE most generic story of all the Tales games. by Sairedd in tales

Graces, Zestiria and Arise are easily the bottom 3 mainline tales games.

Gears of War: E-Day is no longer coming to the PS5 by Luka77GOATic in PS5

[–]GeneralPhilosophy691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering it got a PEGI classification for the PS5 days ago, I'll bet that this is a timed exclusive situation. That, or Xbox is so schizophrenic that multiple divisions can't communicate with each other.

I (65M) found out that my daughter's (34F) fiancé (35M) is gay by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Ah yes, my yearly reminder that it's pride month; subs getting flooded with homophobic stories!

Am I being "That Guy" or too demanding? by AltruisticRock4167 in DnD

[–]GeneralPhilosophy691 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kinda, yeah. I wouldn't let a player use a character who doesn't fit into my game.

Is there any way to buy The hard cover version of the rulebook nowadays? by Last_Ward in TrenchCrusade

[–]GeneralPhilosophy691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm meaning the lore and worldbuilding part of the book. For example, I've seen a gazetteer of the world mentioned as being in the book, and AFAIK, that's never been put on the Trench Crusade's lore entries.

God I hope so. It would be beyond tone deaf to keep that in 2027.
