I’ll allow sexual rp in the style of Chuck Tingle but that’s all.

I'm not even upset because I play a tiefling but, dude, people into pedo poo poo are just going to be playing short humans or elves or whatever, the players are wrong.

GreenMetalSun posted:I also ban all 'short' races (halflings, goblins, kobolds, kender, kenku, etc.), because if I had a dollar for every time a dude wrote me a six page rape fantasy that went on and on about how 'She looks like a toddler, but actually she's 35!', I'd have seven dollars. I also don't allow tieflings since CR came out, because same thing, only the rape fantasy is about the 9-year-old blue tiefling girl in that one.

I play a game with a bunch of friends I knew and liked before we played dnd together and it's going great and completely not weird, your boundary doesn't need to be no short people it needs to be no sexual talk if you're rping with randos, imo. That'll just drive off the erpers anyway.

PetraCore posted:Actually, correction, I feel like I heard the kender are explicitly perpetual children but anyone using that to introduce sex needs to be kicked into the sun. Don't they reproduce by telling stories until fictional kender spontaniously become real or something? They will the next time I run a homebrew game. Towns with a kender population either learn very quickly to subsidize the arts to keep them entertained or wind up with exponential population growth. The small reverse sonic boom (a moob) as air displaces to make way for a spontaneously-generated kender is a harbinger of famine and source of terror.

Where D&D has always failed is that the game is fundamentally about hitting guys with stuff until they fall down. By any measurement you'd want to use, that's what the game books end up being primarily focused around. Having non 'hitting guys with stuff' stats and skills is nice but they never make it actually equitable or workable. Any character can walk up to a door and pretty much every single DM in the world will let them roll a dice and compare it to some number on their sheet and see if they can just smack it open by force because the number says their character is strong enough to do that. However, in almost every single D&D game that I've ever experienced or seen played, a person who has a number on their sheet saying that their character is smart enough to do something doesn't get to walk up to a puzzle and roll a dice and smart it open by cunning. Likewise the poor sap who put his high number into being friendly; good luck tossing a dice and convincing that Storm Giant to sit down and talk out the whole kidnapped Princess thing (without a lot of dumb hoop jumping 'what do you say? let's play act it out' 'you didn't make Tim play act out putting his shoulder through the door' 'no but that's because it just says on his sheet that he's strong').

If your buddy showed you that, that's a problem with him. Sir I think the problem you have is that everyone you know is actually a pedophile and you haven't figured it out yet.

Having non 'hitting guys with stuff' stats and skills is nice but they never make it actually equitable or workable. Just rolling to solve the puzzle might be less fun, though. I mean, in many cases stuff like "search for traps" or "disable trap" or "unlock door" or "cast spells" or "copy spell down to your book" or, indeed, depending on context, "how persuasive you can be with this noble" are things you can actually roll for or just do automatically with the right skill on your character sheet, but sometimes there are situations where "roll to obviate the problem" would just be anti-climactic. Feats of strength aren't usually on that list of things you'd rather do yourself, unless you're into really intense LARPing.

I've also seen failures rped out in some really spectacular ways that have nothing to do with how smart/strong/charismatic the character actually is. Maybe the strong guy slips and eats poo poo instead of hitting the door, or the smart character gets distracted on a research tangent. Does it get absurd sometimes? Yes, but that can be pretty funny. Then again I've seen a group accidentally turn the K6BD rpg into a slapstick farce because of how they kept rolling.

NorgLyle posted:Which is fine and good and a lot of games handle it exactly that way. D&D, unfortunately, has you write down on your character sheet (on every single character sheet) a 'How Good This Character Is At Solving Puzzles' number that you don't get to use to solve puzzles in the same way that the 'Break Down Doors' number breaks down doors. Generally, not always.

There are two relevant TG threads TG As An Industry which is in the process of discussing the WotC statement and the responses to it for obvious reasons (starting with this post), and The Philosophy of Roleplaying Games which, well, the name says it all.

I'm in a GURPS game where my character is an alcoholic. Normally this Disadvantage is a joke because GMs always forget about compelling it, so players get a free 15 CP during character creation. On our last assignment, I decided that poo poo was so stressful (it was a Resident Evil-style "laboratory hidden in a mansion" scenario) that he immediately began guzzling whiskey from a found bottle.

Splicer posted:Sounds more like a problem with your players. Have you considered hanging around less terrible people? I don't play with these people? I never said I did. People will DM me creepy poo poo when I have ads up. I've gotten poo poo like this when I've had 'This is a PG-13 game' in the ad. I've joined games with 'LGBTQ friendly! No Creeps!' and there's creepy Steve, describing how his halfing looks like a six-year old and is a massive cumslut. Actually, re: the game with Creepy Steve, one of the dudes is still stalking me on reddit and harassing me (like a year later) for 'ditching them in the first session for no good reason'. Banning these characters lowers the amount of weirdos contacting me because I guess it makes people not bother? I'm sure everyone here has fully realized tiefling and halfling characters and I'm nothing but happy for you. GreenMetalSun has a new favorite as of 19:53 on Jun 18, 2020 |
