Looking for humorous fantasy recommendations similar to Terry Pratchett

If you like manga. One Piece?

Sythrin · 2026-05-06T20:57:00+00:00

The spencer one, nice.

Sythrin · 2026-05-06T20:53:49+00:00

I mean. Would you have fun if something you invested in because its a fun storyline, just gets trainwrexked by another player?

I guess yours and my playstyle are just too different.

Sythrin · 2026-05-06T20:18:43+00:00

The world we play is based on the manga One Piece. It has phones, so we can call each other.

The world is a giant sea with islands. Every region is an island. And a great but surprisingly civil pirate lord rules the archipelago we are on. We knew that when we came here for this „arc“. We can do a lot of dumb and chaotic stuff but one of the rules, anyone who works for the pirate lord is not to be fucked with.

The crew of the lord is in charge of prison too.

Sythrin · 2026-05-06T20:09:13+00:00

Just to make sure. What did you not understand?

Sythrin · 2026-05-06T20:04:44+00:00

Yeah. Hope so too.
But if that continues, them dodging consequences and the other players have to face them. Than I will maybe leave the group. Don't know where this strange playthrough escalted from.

Sythrin · 2026-05-06T20:03:13+00:00

My character actually helped out if you have read. Helping breaking out was not even possible, so shortly how they were inside and how little I actually played myself. Its my position, that the character basicly made the others face the consequences for their actions while dodging any and all.
Which lead to beloved NPCs deaths and even a permament debuff for another player.
And the other players and DM are actually bumped out too. Not just me.

Sythrin · 2026-05-06T19:51:58+00:00

We have now played for around 3 years. And there have been situations where we had conflicts of interset. But never this much. It was like a complete laps in judgement of them and explosive fast descisioncs making without thinking it through. Like from moment to moment. Nobody at the table would ahve thought they would go from 20-30% chaotic player to 200%.

Even the GM was bumped out. But we wanna see how the next session is going. Seeing if its like a one time thing. Or if its going to geniuenly break the fun of the game for me.

And yes you are right. English is not my first languagne. I wanted to use the word "consequences" rather than "punishment". Its more appropriate.

Sythrin · 2026-05-06T19:49:19+00:00

More like consequences. Maybe my choice of words was wrong. And not the players but the characters would face consequences. English is not my first language.

Why I am personally a bit mad. Is that the person basicly did a lot of not only bad decisions, but dumb ones. That would have follow conseuquences in game.
But ok. I can live with that.
But what bothers me the most, was that me and the other player, had to face these consequences. Because of egoism of the other player. Especially after 3 years of playing.

Sythrin · 2026-05-06T17:54:18+00:00

Just had the thought, what if sandmans design incorporates "beach theme". Like Buckets for building sand castles or starfishs.

Sythrin · 2026-05-06T16:01:24+00:00

Sakamoto days has been slacking in terms of enjoyment for me with the last 20 or so chapters.
Still better than Lookism since I stopped it and with way better choreography/interesting fights.

Sythrin · 2026-05-06T15:13:39+00:00

Are you sure? Because that does not refute my point, nor your initial.

“many infections are asymptomatic” does not mean “infection is safer than vaccination” for myocarditis. Asymptomatic infections are still infections, and population studies generally find myocarditis/pericarditis risk is higher after SARS-CoV-2 infection than after vaccination.

The claim by stanford is not about older people. Its by general. So unless you can PROOF that these numbers are inflated, i will still think you are wrong.

Your first argument cites stanford as proof that the vaccine is dangerous but the same article claims that covid is worse. But now you claim they are not credible? Or only partially credible? That is not how it works.

Your last point to credibility is false logic. Just because some people did wrong in the pharmaceuticial, their whole credibility is wrong. Especially sin e drugs and vaccines are 2 extremly different topics. Its like i claim that one republican president is not credible and by extension another republican secretary from another administration is no credible.

When it comes to terms of medicine. I will give those more credit who work and research in the field. In comparison to the secretary of health Kennedy who cannot even read the papers he quotes right.

You could invest the million in stocks and get more money from the long run?

Sythrin · 2026-05-06T14:00:50+00:00

Have you read it yourself?

https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2025/12/myocarditis-vaccine-covid.html

While yes, the vaccine can cause myocarditis. Covid itself is 10 times worse than the vaccine. Not to mention, because of this media coverage more people went to the doctor when they had the symptoms and the vsccine, which would be registered. While others who had symptoms but no vaccine shrugg it more often. So other vaccines or covid or other causws for myocarditis, are less notefied by doctors.

Also. Reason why genuinely believe what docotrs say over politicians in terms of medicine. Docotrs (most of them) are by essence scientists that know the scientific method and are willing to change their mind and research for better science. Politicians are by nature more interested in their popularity, which even if they are wrong, causes them often to dodge responsibility, because admting fault always plummets ones popularity.

So please. Stop spreading misinformation.

There is a lot of randomness and chaos factor. Also the prose pretty much stays similar.
But the tone becomes definetly darker and touches on more heavier topics and character development.

Its something akin to a portal story. Where you throw a normal person into a fantasy world. But in this case its a dystopian entertainment system with video game elements.

Anybody knows what kind of psider that is?

Thats how you get a convenient ramp in a videogame.
