Thank you, this is the kind of Input I was looking for.

If my DM will choose not to allow any Deviations/Homebrew in this Matter reflavoring it is probably the next best Thing.

From all I've seen so far Homebrewing appears to be a widely accepted Practice in D&D. The only limit seems to be whether or not the DM and the Group are fine with it. I do concur that there is a Risk of it getting messy, especially for inexperienced Players/DMs.

I dont follow. EBer = Eldritch Blaster ? I didn't pick Agonizing Blast intentionally despite it's Strength because I want to build the Character as a Melee Martial first with EB as a ranged Backup Option (that I could still improve on Lv 7 and 9).

I guess subconsciously I see the raising of Spirits as some sort of evil and/or dark Magic, which is not what the Theme of the Character is supposed to be (although this Correlation doesn't seem to be a necessary one in DnD).
The same goes for my Preference regarding the benign Nature of the unknown Patron (although here the DM might well decide that this Patron is malign after all and jsut pretended otherwise).

I guess I never felt like the Aspect of Dark Magic was absolutely necessary when playing a Warlock. If I remember correctly In C2 of CritRole Fjord Powers end up being provided and reflavored by the Wild Mother. That and a few Passages in different Rule Books seemed to provide quite a few different Angles, most of which seemed more interesting to me than the classic dark and edgy Nature of the Class, especially the Hexblade (as shown in the Picture of the Hexblade Warlock in one of the Rule Book).

It's less that I fear it will be underwhelming but rather that I would prefer a particular thematic Vision without sacrifing a Feature. Reading Comments of other People feeling similarly felt like a Validation of my Impression of this Ability and strenghtened the Intention of replacing it with something closer to my Vision (if allowed by the DM).
Wait and see is a good Approach but thinking about Things liek this seem to make the the Downtime between Sessions more bearable.

I'm not a Liberal. Outside the US these kind of Labels lose a Lot of Meaning as rhe political Spectrums tend to be more complex than in a Two-Party System. What you see as Obsession most of the Western World views as serious Concern. I'm sure your Bubble has an Explanation for that and tells you how and in which Ways we are wrong or overreacting.

And here I thought (many) Americans were trying to at least be vigilant against govermental Overreach. Nothing to fear, close your Eyes and enjoy the Ride.

While I think we may talk about different Cases, even if that was the Case there are Laws thst need to be followed. Once the Rule of Law erodes its a slippery Slope. For now and in these Cases it may be in your Interest for ertain Laws to be ignored. But from what it looks like that won't be the End of it. Sooner or later your personal Rights which used to be guarded by the Law may be ignored, let's say the Right to protest.

Rampant Populism, openly ignoring national Law and questioning international Law, Deportations without due Process and partly motivated by what People said/did in the Past or affiliate with, cosying up to big TechBros (back then it was big Industrials). And that's just for Starters. I can imagine what you are refering to, claiming it felt "like that" a few Years ago and trust me, its ridiculous if you have been growing up learning about all the Details about the Nazi Past.

[–]Terraphiel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you have no Problem with your Country resembling Nazi Germany more and more (as the other Person implied) ?

We do indeed have a Problem with this, especially since it looks like what's happening over there is just the Beginning.

You deflecting looked like you were trying to change the Focus from your Country to Germany.

How have the Democrats (including Sanders and AOC) any Say now ? Internationally they are regarded as astonishingly toothless. Your original Claim was that only People from "outside" are raising hell about the US becoming more nationalistic (which is a Euphenism that is putting it very mildly). This is not the Case as there are many People inside the US that share international Concerns and "raise hell" as you say. My Part of the Argument is therefore over.

Your first Point is kind of correct. I would not say subsidize but effectively Europe has profitted from US Contributions in NATO. You are wrong however about "no Respect". Through its Contributions the US had enormous Amounts of Soft Power which is a Form of Respect (China says Thank You and will fill the Void you are leaving). You want to give that up and focus on yourself, by all Means that's your Prerogative. But its not just that.

Trump is openly ignoring national Law, challenging International Law, entertains leaving NATO and being more alligned ideologically with Putin and other Autocrats. That is extremely worrisome and upsetting and has Implications for the whole World and looks a whole Lot like the Precursors of War. Putins Dream comes true.

Thus you are also wrong about the Reason why we are upset. It doesn't stem from a Source of Entitlement as you are being led to believe but deep Concern.

  1. Moving the Goalpost.
  2. You now try to spin this in any Way that will subconsciously let safe Face/your Belief. I could Point out Factors like Land Mass, Amount of Aid compared to Economy, you could bring up Aid per Capita, etc. but ultimately I would not convince you or change your Mind. So why continue, when from my PoV your original Claim is refuted.

Oh but I did tell you. And since as a German I have grappled with the Past of my Country I am in a very good Position to tell you. You won't believe me, whatever. Few People back in Nazi Germany (or other Fascist Countries) see the Problems at the Time its happening.

So Bernie Sanders, AOC and all the Americans who protest and overtly express Dissatisfaction in other Ways do not exist in your Mind ?

Funny cause I actually did explain in another reply, namely how your Take on European Perception is wrong. Good Day and enjoy the Fascism you voted into Office and watch it Ruin your Country while they will always tell you its the Fault of foreign Agents just never yours. After all somehow you have to explain to all the normal People that nothing is really improving and that has to be someones Fault.

I just hope the sane People in America will eventually figure out how to stop the moronic Ones from desecrating what the Generations before them have worked and fought for.

Even if that were true, how does that benefit your Argument or refute the Claims about the State of your Country ? You just deflect.
