You sure? Dunsparce is more disliked, on average, than Shuckle even, because Shuckle at least has a lot of meme potential.

shuckle in phijkchu is a tranny

serene grace though

who hates me

Not to mention I'm me on top of that.

and left the cult

I don't hate you though

you are super autistic

shuckle is gay stall cringe dunsparce is based curse king

but thats fine

You’re black

Remember how I said I can tokenize myself even more than being half black and roughly 1/6-1/5 Japanese?

I'm legit autistic, and not self-diagnosed.

lol

we could tell

but thats fine

Luckily it mostly extends to the social aspect and some physical aspects, like getting seriously nauseous from so many food textures or strong photosensitivity, not... whatever the fuck more severely autistic people or people who "claim" to be autistic and advertise it when they've self-diagnosed from a 45-second Tiktok video are like.

I assume you already had the smooth food conversation

did we ever lets atch the ripoff fnaf movie

no

everyone who hangs out in here is at least a little autistic

ATTENTION ALL GAMERS; Do not post any horse images near Phijkchu_Pikachu#6873! He can triangulate your location by finding the nearest river in the picture and then comparing that to the wave pattern of the aurora borealis; with this information he can then calculate an accurate size of the horse's cock and enter in to a private database to find the exact horse and where it was from. Do be warned, and stay careful!

oh no

Are any of you guys into D&D or other RPGs of the sort? Cuz I'm sperging out here at lore changes to several very common, important, and/or iconic monsters in the new errata for Volo's Guide to Monsters.

It was bad enough that they made Drow a playable race in the core Player's Handbook, even outright saying, "Though Drow are almost ALWAYS evil, there ARE Drow that aren't necessarily evil. There's Drizzt, and, uh....."

Ah yes, I did kinda see something about WoC doing more of the dumb shit they've been doing for years now

It's real sad seeing DnD, pathfinder, and others become so overly sanitized and infantile

So, making Drow a core sub-race for elf is bad enough, but now retconning Drow so that SOME of the oldest Drow cities have been corrupted by Lloth, with Drow in other campaign settings being completely separate and no inherent evil whatsoever, when in ALL of any official D&D material, be it novel, adventure module, etc, there has been ONE notable Drow that was NOT evil?

But even worse, they're doing it to stuff that ARE monsters still, not made into PC races: https://www.reddit.com/r/DnD/comments/rg4idx/writeup_of_all_the_lore_thats_beeing_removed_from/

Alignment in D&D is more mechanical than thematic; the reason orcs are chaotic evil is so you can use holy and axiomatic weapons and magic against them to greater effect

Other settings? WoC have more than one in 5e now?

I know there used to be many

Though them being forgotten and not messed with by wizards is probably better

Is there even an official setting for 5e?

If it wasn't obvious, I don't care for modern WoC. They've been fucking with all their IP's

there was what.... 2 in 4e?

I don't look much into pre-made mods - I barely even write the adventures I run myself until after they've already happened, only writing a few key points, because I'm good at improvising without a structured plan, but bad if I have one and the players go off the beaten course - but the core rulebooks mention Greyhawk, Forgotten Realms, Krynn, Ravenloft, they released a book for Eberron

There's also, what is it called, Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide? Which the Sword Coast is a small part of Forgotten Realms.

as far as I know, aside from the small bit of ravenloft recently, it's all been in the same place, I forget which one it is. I know it's not Greykawk

is it FR?

or eberron

idk, I don't look at them

By core rulebooks, I mean Player's Handbook, Dungeon Master's Guide, and Monster Manual. They make mention of all these different campaign settings. As for official published adventures, I don't know; I'd be extremely surprised if Curse of Strahd doesn't take place in Ravenloft, and I'd be extremely surprised if Ghosts of Saltmarsh doesn't take place in Greyhawk.

Yeah Curse of Strahd is in rraverloft, the rest of the adventures are in the same other main place

After WotC acquired D&D and put out 3e, I believe Greyhawk was the official setting at first, then eventually became Forgotten Realms, though Living Greyhawk stayed Living Greyhawk until 4e, when Forgotten Realms was the official setting and it changed to Living Forgotten Realms.

It's probably still forgotten realms as the only other one I think they'd do is eberon and I don't think there's prevalent airships

Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide covers just a portion of Forgotten Realms, Eberron is a completely different setting

At the end of the day, The basic rules and Homebrew settings are all that matter

...So in an effort to remove "racist" stereotypes,

they've turned orcs - the monster race, not half-orcs, the PC race(which are no longer composed of almost nothing but rape babies) - into stereotypes of tribal Africans or Native Americans.

Yeah, like I said, Wizards doing dumb shit and making issues where there weren't any

Finally

The two boomers have met

Glorious reunion

Am I the older of the boomers?

Not a question for me

I only know people based on age in relation to the release of Minecraft - 13

Minecraft was released in 2008, right?

At least in beta.

I count the official release

All I know is that I paid $8 or $9 for it when it was in beta I was in high school, and it's now, what, over $30?

It’s like

25 I think

This is legit making me sperg out, and I'm sorry, but the scene from THACO: The Movie, where the dude freaks out after finding out that in 3rd edition they got rid of THAC0 in favor of ascending AC and to-hit bonuses, is completely how I feel.

"How about instead of saving throws, we close our eyes and hope REALLY HARD not to get hurt?"

If you were playing alpha, 2010ish, beta is up til late 2011

"Should we trade spell levels for affirmation, and hit points for hugs?"

You have to get the players consent to attack them

First made public in May 2009, so I was 16 or 17 when I bought it.

It's ableist to not let a level 1 ranger to not use level 10 spells

If you want to cry about ableism as a ranger in 5e, all you have to do is roll beastmaster and you're good.

I blame critical role for this

CR seems fine, but they did play a part

mainly in just normalizing it, so shitters want in and change it

I've watched like two videos of it, and I think the issue is, is that pretty much until Critical Role(actually, Big Bang Theory had a hand in this before Critical Role, but it didn't showcase RPGs the same way, just mentioned them) came out, if you were into D&D, you were considered such a nerd that you're essentially a social pariah.
