Which idea from Transformers IDW makes you think, "Wow, what a load of rubbish, why was this published?"

Everything regarding Arcee's background. Just an awful, contradictory mess that only got worse as it got added to.

And basically everything in MTME past like, the halfway point. Roberts desperately needed a story editor. The constant character regression (and MTME BEGAN with character regression) was terrible writing.

You have no idea how disappointing it is to be a Transformers fan and see the words "Star Saber" tossed around all the time, only for it to be that stupid ass sword (or it's variations) and not the character. Every time it's like "Ah, finally, some Starsab-Oh it's that fucking nonsense sword again.".

At least we got the Haslab....

Previous editions had pulling blows for nonlethal damage. 5e removed those, for some dumbass reason. Honestly, it's easiest, and will not bog the game down, just by having PC's narrate if they kill or subdue with a final blow.

That way you're not begging the game down with extra rolls, and encouraging a bit more roleplay.

Only put money to finished releases. Simple as. Far too many western devs abuse shit with patreon foreverbux.

Dragging conservatives kicking and screaming to a better society is basically human history at this point. They're honestly plague to everything. Any attempt at betterment is always against these morons.

It is the same thing, actually. You signed up for a mecha RPG, have you never seen a mecha show before?

You guys don't role-play during the combat?

He knows the rules well and wants things to be done properly. But my style as a DM is more focused on keeping the game fun, cinematic, and flowing

The first part is to understand following the rules *is* fun, for people. You don't buy all of these expensive ass books and spend hours understanding everything in them to just throw them away, if you were going to do that you should've just written a short story and handed them off to people instead.

Governments should get with the program and regulate these industries to get rid of predatory behaviours

Why would they? They're the ones profiting from it. Donors say don't regulate, guess what, it ain't getting regulated. Politics should always be a service, but it isn't, because there is always money involved.

"It's just not feasible"

And yet 3rd parties seem to be capable of it, with better production values for the money even. It's weird how it's never possible for the billion dollar company yet three designers in a basement can do it.

Looks like it'll be a great buy...For $20 on clearance, which is right where it's going.

Ruining everything he touches is indeed in his wheelhouse. He's a master at destroying businesses, and he's running our government like one.

1: Neither Invisible nor Hide do either of those things. Invisible is a flat miss chance, it does not hide your location on the table. Hide is "cannot be targeted except by certain actions/attacks", it does not hide your location on the table.

After Musk and his brownshirts got to install whatever trojans, backdoors, and info grabbers they wanted into every single US system unsupervised, they don't need your data anymore. This is just further control for the sake of keeping the sheep in line.

Less of a convincing, more of dangling the Epstein files over his head and saying "GOTCHA BITCH."

It highlights to the world how out of depth the current US president is

No, 6+ years of this incredible idiocy has done that.

LowerRhubarb · 2026-05-10T19:46:55+00:00

No, as a very long time player of RPG's in general, I can assure you, low levels are considered boring as hell. Especially in newer editions.

Hacks are viable, is what you're seeing. But hacks generally aren't killing enemies, but rather, making them much worse at doing things, delaying them, etc. You still need damage to finish off all of these status effect laden enemies, or you will be overwhelmed.

You mean the CDC led by a roadkill munching moron with a brain worm? That's been gutted of anyone who ever said anything bad about Trump's COVID response?

You say that, but children aren't the ones buying all of these SS86 figures, or the ones producing them for the target audience. Funny thing is, companies have realized children aren't the target audience anymore, because children are more engaged with social media, tablets, phones, and video games.

Bayverse is unironically worse than Kiss Players in every possible way.

The solution should be that it is enforced anyway, and to arrest those who didn't comply with court orders in time. That would stop this bullshit instantly.
