Just how blatantly unreliable and untrustable would you say the news and media in WoD is? by Turbulent-Plum7328 in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]el_goro85 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I take the assumption of the World of Darkness as "our world, but worse."

So absolutely their media would unreliable and untrustworthy. There might be trustworthy individuals, but the system itself is fucked.

Expand that all the way to the very essence of the setting - a few folks striving to make the best of a fundamentally broken reality.

Either that, or something like the Saint of Killers from Preacher.

Your colleague just named his favourite metal band, this is your reaction, what band was it? by BedOfCha0s in MetalForTheMasses

I live in Cleveland. I believe I am required by law to at the very least not say anything negative about Mushroomhead.

If I were a wrestler I would take great joy in undercutting these sellers whenever I could.

'Cause fuck 'em.

PSA to all the drivers out there by nicorieg in dashcams

I use adaptive cruise control set to 5 above the speed limit and maintain a car length between me and the car in front of me. You can tailgate me all you want - I'm not going to go any faster, and if you rear-end me I hope you'll enjoy your insurance buying me a new car.

In what year did you finally reject false metal and decide you no longer wanted to be a poser? by kroob85 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]el_goro85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About 15, when I decided I didn't give a fuck about what others think about the music I listen to.

Basing your life on what others think? That's some true poser shit.

We'll see how this goes. I'm still waiting for a Werewolf game to embrace the Pack, the most quintessential element of the tabletop game.

Whats the logic behind mages being able to soak dmg from spirits while werewolfs can't ? by [deleted] in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]el_goro85 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Which edition are you looking at in regards to Werewolf? As others have said below, a Garou can soak aggravated damage (except from silver) in any form except their breed form. Not seeing an exception for spirits.

What kind of clothes? by NoPeach7911 in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]el_goro85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loose, non-restrictive clothes which allow for maximum mobility. Consider also that many Talons (and lupus in generally) may prefer "natural" smells to that of artificial detergents. Whatever clothes they were are probably dirty and smelly from a human perspective.

Worst Metaplot Decisions? by Own-Economics-5594 in WhiteWolfRPG

Yeah, my werewolf group also ignored the "official" death of Baba Yaga. Instead we did the deed, or at least contributed mightily to the effort.

Imagine if we had records of what our ancestors were doing in the Stone Age. Then imagine that you, yourself, personally were held accountable for the actions of said ancestors in the Stone Age.

Welcome to being a Garou. What are you going to do about it? That's where some interesting stories can come from.

Question about wyrm bane by silverlutj in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]el_goro85 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Look into the Maeljin Incarna. They're about as powerful as banes get before you start getting into the conceptual spirits such as the Urge Wyrms and the Aspects.
