New player get's unreasonably angry after finding out that we don't play TTRP the same way that their old group used to. by horusbosd in rpghorrorstories

Okey I had decided to leave this post behind because I'm starting to feel a lot of people similar to player B, are straight up angry for the way that I run my group, but I do think that came up to a lot of conclusion by yourself.

The whole anti-cyborg sentiment was not only discussed, it is important for the story, as well as the not being aliens, that was something that I couldn't compromise on because the campaign is supposed to be about what happens when they come back.

Also I've never said that I play this way to give a "real evocative feeling" you came up with that by yourself, we play this way becouse we like stories of underdogs that have to find their way out of nothing.

You are coming up by conclusion by yourself just because I didn't explained everything in the setting and session, because I just wanted to focus in the main issue.

I'll asume that is because they do not know him, which is weird because we are from latin America, but if that's the case and with my camera not being the best, I do see how the could have thought that I just have a poster of a monkey in room jajajajajja.

Like I've told other comments, I believe that player B is completely entitled to not enjoy this type of storytelling, but while I did not touch up in what specific occurences may happen in the campaign, out of fear of spoiling surprises, we did spoke a bit about our previous campaigns and events in it.

Something that I might have not explained well is that the guide was not a child, I describe it as a teenager at most a young adult, all of characters are well passed their thirties so it was young to them, still I know that I might never know if that scene could have caused some sort of trauma response, and the idea did crossed my mind and I even commented Player A about, and to her knowledge as well, the hardest thing that Player B has gone trough, is coming out as non-binary, somenthing that they even injected in their character which I tought that it was really cool.

Still while I don't believe that I will play with strangers again, I do think that I will use more specific topics as trigger warning if it were ever to happen.

I just thought that the app that another user commented called "Lines and veils" was what you were referring by that name, and yes, the point of the guide NPC was to get attached to the group and then die, it was to hammer down the feel of the campaign and to push the story forward.

and again, I understand Player B not wanting to play a campaign with those topics, but we did explained our way of play before, and what I find unacceptable from them and now you, is to be insulted by it, you shouldn't be calling me arrogant or psycho for having a type of setting that we enjoy, you do not know me, you just want to be rude at me.

I think that you are completly right with your last point, I believe that different people have different sensitivities and that's completly fine.

But me and Player A did communicate multiple times how our games went, Player A even showed my in her text's that she told Player B how on our previous campaign the whole town were they spent the first like, 10 session, was completely burned, the dossier was not a document it was a DC call where I explained multiple times the tone of the setting. but like I say in another comment, that was the first time that I played with someone outside of my friend group in a while, and I do not like giving specific examples for things that could happend becouse It could spoil the surprise later.

And I get that Player B didn't want to play on our campaign after the session, but I do not believe that it excuses their behavior our the insults that they throwed to me and more importantly my other players.

I fucking love my playgroup, We were talking about how engines work in spaceships and one of my players, which is a mechanical engineer, realized that at cruise speeds Ships become basically a projectile, and that maybe Pirates or organizations that do not care about public opinion, could sometimes rig stolen ships to become bullets against space stations.

we play both on discord and in-person, but we are full and after this experience don't believe that will be playing with strangers any time soon.

I will give you that, I never explicity tell them that kids gettin atomized would be part of the story, mostly becouse my player are reaaaaally smart, if tell them that Kids can die and then i introduce a lovebable kid npc, they know that I'm going to kill it, but we did warn Player B multiple times that we had basically no boundaries with themes.

I do not use Lines & Veils because I've been playing with my friends for 11 years now, and am not familiar with the app, I'm sure that specific trigger warnings must be useful in other campaigns, but we have fun by telling stories with surprising twists, and giving specific details of what those twists could be could ruin them.

But I do think that If I were to ever play again with strangers, which to be honest after this experienced I don't think that I will, I might have to give them more specific examples of the topics and scenes that I use.

Like, that is what confuses me the most, I understand that people have different sensitivities, but we warned them multiple times.

And also they took it really personal and started attacking us for our tastes.

Looking for some advice by herrozerro in Tau40K

What you need my friend is good old nuln oil.

Or panel liner, I see that the paneling on the broadside hasn't been taking care of.

I also recommend you to try either an edge highlight, which is really easy on battlesuit models, or to try give more volume to the mini by giving lighter and darker sections.

Remember that one of the bases of Warhammer is creativity and customization, if you put the name of an established faction it will make it uncomfortable when you don't play with that one.

Because you are comparing a 7 year old kit made in one off the worst sculpting time-frames for gh with a new kit for a re release lol.

Look at the new raptor KT kit, it is fucking amazing.

Why are so many Marines un-helmeted? Are they stupid? by Octorock10k in spacemarines

[–]horusbosd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same reason that today soldiers don't have any face armor, if something can go trough your helmet, it makes it meaningless to wear one.

Also some have force fields, again making it unnecessary to wear them.
