Cythereal posted:Call me old-fashioned, but that's how I see the relationships. She hasn't admitted either relationship publicly, and in my eyes that's not a good sign. Yeah it's super weird why a monarch wouldn't want to announce who they're dating as though marriage had some sort of political facet, surely this only arises because Elaine is cheating(?) somehow despite complete consent with everyone involved. Obviously. As a bisexual dude who has previously dated separate people of separate genders with all parties being aware and cool with it, I didn't cheat on anybody because I didn't tell my parents or whoever the gently caress else who I was involved with.

Yeah, it is, you judgemental rear end. Thanks for insulting my previous relationships with people I still deeply care about because I guess I'm aberrant and wrong to have loved them at the same time.

Cythereal posted:Oh, the Skaven. I know a lot of people love them, but I've never gotten the appeal. To me, they're a fundamentally pointless enemy to fight beyond the immediate. In the long run, you can never invade or destroy them. But because they're Skaven, in the long run they'll never succeed, either. Find replace Skaven for Necromancy or Chaos and it’s the exact same, though?

You can't wipe them out, and they're never going to take over the world, and they have no goals or desires of their own except taking over the world. Again, how is that any different than capital C Chaos?

Rand Brittain posted:I mean, it was a joke, based on the idea that the source material, such as Tanith Lee, is full of incredibly-powerful beings getting dunked on because they're petty and lust-addled; therefore a genuinely asexual being would stand astride the Flat Earth like a god, untouchable and unhorny. Oh thank god, they were otherizing and fetishizing minorities as a joke, which is a much better position to be in, erasing people’s experience but as a jest. Also ‘genuinely asexual being’ gently caress all the way off.

Night10194 posted:One of the things I like about the X-Card in Spire (and I know they got it from elsewhere) is there's no explanation. You just toss the card on the table and the scene's done. Of course, that’s also one of the major weaknesses of the X-Card as a single method of handling these situations, but that’s a much deeper discussion and is way off the topic of Exalted being bad at things.

Not going to lie, a martial arts version of that Shade short from a couple years ago would be pretty dope, but then again so are a bunch of those conceptually but ol’ Monte is incapable of allowing anything interesting to exist in his games.

Lugh’s doofy epithet is probably a reference to the story of his entrance into Nuada’s court, where he offered his services as twelve or thirteen different jobs that were already taken by the greatest at whichever in the land. His response was “but do you have someone who can do all of those at the same time” and was granted a position as the second best at everything presumably to give more flex to the court’s bench. EDIT: Also I’m pretty sure the bit about Dian Cecht needing the head of someone to heal them is a reference to his son Miach. Which is weird, because Miach’s head was basically bisected by his dad in a fit of jealous rage after Miach outdid him by healing Nuada’s missing arm when Dian Cecht could only figure out how to strap on a dope silver robot arm. Extremely Good Aligned Deity behavior. Double Also the fact that Nuada has a dope silver robot arm/hand means he can’t be the king of the Tuatha so I presume that’s why he’s not the head of the pantheon.

Honestly Ravenloft is the only D&D setting where the wonky population numbers make sense, because it’s a handcrafted Disneyland of suffering instead of a place where anything could be said to be naturally occurring.

I can’t really speak to the third edition version of Ravenloft as I haven’t read any of it, but for a setting that is explicitly a horror game world the fact that this city is always bustling and filled with urban press but there’s just. Not enough people to do that. Is pretty creepy! I doubt there was any sort of developer intent in making that happen but that doesn’t invalidate the potential of this packed city where there are demonstrably only eleven thousand and some people in it, and so on and so on.

The X-card is actually an extremely good rule that is occasionally used to paper over other due diligence but if you find yourself complaining about it every game you review that doesn’t sound like an X-Card problem. Like, as fun as it would be to routinely explain to people I want to play pretend games with every situation that would be a trauma trigger I don’t actually have an annotated list of everything that’s going to be too intense in the heat of investment so being able to say, without having to explain, that we need to do something about this is a very good thing.

Making it an explicit mechanical thing is actually part of the reason the X-Card is effective, so this is extremely a ‘you’ problem.

Yeah, there's a vanishingly small amount of things Werewolves care to murder that conventional explosives are more effective on then their bare claws. They are exceptionally optimized to murder things, which is why a lot of the game of Forsaken is confronting them with problems you cannot actually solve with murder.
