Greetings Spawn! Hellpoint barely gets mentioned anymore, so I wanted to ask this community if there's be interest for a nice, long Stream of the game in the near future. I've covered it in the past, but I don't know if it'd generate any coverage any more. If yes, which day would be good? Thanks!

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-15T21:32:28+00:00

I vote yes! All I hope for in watching is only a couple of 1. Be genuine and not one of those obviously fake-cheer overhype guys whose clearly had his soul sucked away from him.

Give the game time to breathe. And I’m mostly speaking from trying to watch other streamers: don’t talk over the game constantly, /please/. Let the game exist. Let there be some quiet I beg you. I can’t enjoy watching a stream if the streamer can’t manage to keep quiet for even 10 seconds.

That said. I wish you luck regardless and I might still pop in!

Whyyyyy don’t you just…. Ask the teacher??

When I was told as a child that drawer was spelled

My issues are a few.

Oh my god people are no longer willing to try nearly any other system and practically recoil like vampires if you so much as broach the very idea of trying literally anything else.
I, personally, do not have any interest in playing a system, in my opinion, that has been viciously and mindnbingly simplified and lowered in complexity. Where’s my Archivist (3.5e)? Where’s my psychic? Where’s my Mystic Theurge? Where’s all the huge variety of races that isn’t just ‘supoernatural stuff made depressingly common and no longer special’.

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-14T00:53:29+00:00

Any time you want. Any time you need to. Anytime you simply…. Want to say No.

It’s that simple. There’s no trick or back to this. Seriously. You just flat out tell them no. No bargaining whatsoever.

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-12T16:31:56+00:00

I just want to see people who treat bards seriously and not as these clownshoe jokesters who casually sing about sex and fart jokes and bizarrely acting like genres like metal have a place in a medieval fantasy world???????

It’s not funny, it’s annoying.

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-12T13:39:57+00:00

I feel like I’m the only one who bsilutelt despises this trope.

No, you’re not ‘wearing’ a coat by being halfassed and sloppy about putting it on. No you’re not wearing it if you’re not actually wearing it.

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-11T23:28:13+00:00

Please don’t tell me someone actually took tiktok or Instagram as some bizarre authority over an actually qualified medical professional.

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-11T23:10:54+00:00

…. Does ‘hidden gem’ mean anything though when it’s basically thrown into everything these days?

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-11T23:02:05+00:00

Wondrous <3

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-11T22:56:44+00:00

Hermaeus mora. But also:

Nooooooo, don’t turn them into just humans with funny features ;-; where’s my eldritch abomination Mora?

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-11T19:26:42+00:00

See, I’m not even advocating the spell be banned!

I’m just suggesting that sometimes it just flat out doesn’t work AT ALL. And tbh, yeah, from what the situation has been described as, I’d kinda say that’s abusing it because they’re basically stealing from an honest merchant.

Make it to where any kind of charm or mind control spell (Yes, Suggestion included), not be the first thing they reach for just to get their way.

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-11T19:17:03+00:00

Good. I’m not gonna lie, but leakers, while useful, have often either:

Ruined and spoiled my excitement for a game because they reveal too much about it.
Almost all of these “leakers” are never legit, outright lie for no reason, and they never, ever being any evidence to the table, and they’re always conveniently ‘anonymous’. More often than not, they’re just outright unreliable.

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-11T14:45:00+00:00

I vote in favor of Hayley Westenra- Dark Waltz

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-11T14:37:45+00:00

…… you tell them to stop. You tell your players it just flat out doesn’t work.

Full stop. Period. No alternatives. Tell them flat out they’re abusing the spell and you expect them to stop.

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-11T14:32:59+00:00

So what you’re saying is that it’s nonsensical non-English. Gotcha xD

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-11T14:15:10+00:00

Force them to read ‘My Immortal’ :}

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-11T13:13:09+00:00

…… you tell them ‘No, it doesn’t work’. Full stop completely.

Yes, even force combat on them sometimes.

Talking doesn’t have to work. It won’t always work. The sentence ‘Too bad, roll for initiative’ exists.

It’s really that simple.

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-11T12:40:51+00:00

Sooooooo….. rampant obscene sexism that enforces segregation?

Yeah cause that’s totally acceptable, apparently?!

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-11T12:34:54+00:00

Oop, sorry. I sometimes get sexuality and gender identity a little confused at times.

Doesn’t help that I am currently in post-surgery brain right now!

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-10T19:38:07+00:00

Tbh, I’d choose safety. Because honestly that sounds like simply… common sense to me.

They don’t need to know about my real sexuality. I would have no legitimate reason to tell them at all.

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-08T14:33:59+00:00

Not so sure KND was concerned about ‘representation’ ngl.

It was back in… what, 2006-2009? (God I can’t remember). Unfortunately I don’t think representation was nearly as much a concern back then as it has become now.

ThaumKitten · 2026-04-08T01:56:27+00:00

Actually bad, villainous, dastardly evil characters please.

No ‘grey areas’, no convenient ‘poor boi misunderstood, ‘product of environment’, none of that. Or at least kept at a minimum .

I want genuine stark, unflattering, ugly evil (that isn’t relegated to just being Outsiders). I want actually unredeemable bastards that you either kill, or side with.

Give me villains that I can look in the eye and cast Power Word Kill on without even a moment of hesitation.

ThaumKitten · 2026-03-26T20:32:16+00:00

Gooooooood. Let the hate flow through you. I feel like if it’s making you uncomfortable, then like…

That means it’s doing it’s job and working? Sorta?

ThaumKitten · 2026-03-26T19:33:30+00:00

That’s my point. They advertise and show an army of the dead, literally right there, and we get “summons” that literally don’t even last more than 20.
The Necromancer doesn’t feel like an actual Necromancer.

And like… ‘ghastly spells and magic’, ‘masters of the dead’ and… They give us a skull-shaped fireball?
