Jim Sterling / James "Stephanie" Sterling / James Stanton/Sexton & in memoriam TotalBiscuit (John Bain) - One Gaming Lolcow Thread

I meant that he's to retarded to understand the rules of Pathfinder since it isnt dumb downed for normies. But he would derail a campaign to do some degenerate shit.

He is definitely the type of person to cause a table to need those red flag, X, etc. cards that people can wave at the DM to show they're panicking and can't handle whatever dumb shit is currently occuring, of course those people are also the only ones to actually prompt a need for that shit in the first fucking place.

"Enby/enbie" is just a cutesy spelling of NB. The genderspecials love their smol soft bean uwu words. And of course he's judging a game based on how easily it caters to his gross troon fantasies

For fucks sake. So they expect people to know the special version of their stupid special shit now?

Jim seems like the kind of person who'd quit a campaign when the DM doesn't let him derail the entire thing into an 18+ experience because he wants to larp seducing the entire bar during downtime between quests.

"I'm going to roll to seduce the bar tender, the waitress, the patrons and even some of the furniture. Oh fuck, I rolled a 1. Can I keep rolling until I'm sucking every dick in bar? It's important to my character that he be covered in as much cum as humanly possible, it's all in that 300 page novel that is my backstory."

Honestly its never been my experience that you really need to dumb down pathfinder for normies, as long as you can have an actually sociable DM running the table. Some support during character creation/progression and some DM prompting for edgecases when appropriate in the game helps newbies a lot - And if they have a good first couple sessions, then they tend to be much more interested in reading all the details of the rulebook and noting down what they can do.

But maybe that's just my experience at tables with DM's who are willing to flex the rules a bit to help new players not feel like complete retards because they didn't memorize the players manual day one.

And then he'd probably consider it a personal attack on him when the town proceeds to have absolutely no respect for his character, as the villagers start actively avoiding the manwhore in their midst or spreading rumors about him being an incubus who's just here to rape their children and turn them evil or some shit. People looking to live out their personal fantasies in a public tabletop session tend to not do so well when their actions have reasonable consequences.

Hell, if it wasn't for the average players unwillingness to make the party adversarial to a player, a character acting like that would probably get left at the city, as a horny liability to the party, force the player to roll up someone new who isn't being that way.

The problem with Pathfinder is the same problem as most crunch-derived/tactical RPGs: character creation should be one of the last things a new player worries about, but it gets put right in their face.

You wanna get a normie/new player into PF/3.5e/5e/whatever? Here's how you do it: bring a couple premade characters (just the stat blocks) of varying archetypes (fighter, spellcaster, rogue, etc), get the new player to pick whichever they think sounds coolest and then fill in the blanks on the character, throw them right into the action and teach them the rules as they play the game, and if they're still interested at the end of the session then you offer to teach them the character creation rules.

As a DM my response would be.
"No you take your roll as it falls" I'd then point out that his attempts to talk to the bar maid but over come with nerves your words comes out as a line of unintelligible jabberings that turns every head in the pub towards you and they don't look happy, the bar maid asks him where his carer is.
Also make him roll to see if he pissed himself.

Bitching about Square Enix, Apparently he likes the theatrythm final bar line game. Bitches about some bar that has an arcade machine for it with the volume turned down. Whines about DLC. Claims in Febuary he was traumatized by a smear campaign and this game made his brain feel nice or something. Talks about how he's a PCW "women's champion" and won't give up the title to an actual woman.

Theaterhytmn in the arcade (like almost all Japanese Music Games) has a headphone jack for this exact reason - so you can hear it without disturbing other people or being disturbed by other people.

If he likes it that much, a Theaterhytmn cabinet can be had for under $2,000 easily, and probably $1,000 for a second hand one with some searching - a substantial savings from another pinball machine.

So in other words, he has an option to privately enjoy whatever it is he likes, but instead bitches because he can't force it on everyone else in the vicinity to deal with?

Hmm...

I see he still has his channel marked as USA rather than UK I wonder if there is a reason out side of sloth for this as you would think that would have been a thing he would have done as soon as he could for ranking reasons.

Jim Sterling is the definition of globohomo because he looks like a globe and talks like a homo

Your favorite Pokemon character is about to put on the tinfoil hat: Google has actually been doing that for years and that's the source of his almost supernaturally consistent 1K a month sub bleed.

Maybe they're saving it as a Christmas present for us

Merry Christmas to my favourite thread. However you choose to celebrate, I'm sure it's better than what Jim's doing, judging by last year's amazing dinner table photo.

 

[Moja Zemlja]

Merry Christmas everyone, its my great pleasure to share with you all the much awaited top ten shittiest games.

To ruin Christmas for you all, its very normal. Only one game on there could be aruged as not being bad enough to belong there and thats Starfield.

Got a link for that? I went back in this thread and couldn't find anything.

Here's the original post and the 'wonderful' Christmas dinner he had last year.

Immortals of Aveum(downsampled itself to under 480p on console if I remember right) and still couldn't maintain a decent framerate. Probably not actually worthy of being the "shittiest".

Skull Island Rise of Kong. Low hanging fruit.

The Walking Dead Destinies. Didn't even know this was a thing, looks like shit.

Redfall

Starfield. As shitty as betheda's games are, I don't think this one belongs on a top 10 shittiest games list.

The Last Day Dead Zone Survival, definitely looks like shit.

Guns of Sherwood. Only shows a 3 second clip. No idea wtf this is. Shows gollum footage?

Gollum game

Stray Souls. Claims people only bought this because they wanted to support the director of the game being a racist and afraid of trannies.

Silent Hill Ascension, a macrotransaction(seriously, they aren't micro anything at this point) hellscape of shit, basically a shitty TV show with crappy puzzle games every now and then.

I'm pretty sure all he did was look for some low rated unity engine games on steam, and wanted to just join the crap on starfield bandwagon months late.

Here's the original post and the 'wonderful' Christmas dinner he had last year.

Thank you and that looks exactly what I'd expect from a socially isolated manchild like Jim - he knows what typical Christmas fare is and that proper meals involve tablecloth + silverware + non-plastic plates, but that's about where his understanding ends. The metal trays make me think he got most of that stuff ready-made and all he had to do was heat it up. It reminds me of the Instaspam DSP used to make of his Christmas dinners his mother got him through QVC.

Starfield. As shitty as betheda's games are, I don't think this one belongs on a top 10 shittiest games list.

It's only there because of the Bethesda name - he loves shitting on that company so much that he literally came up with a "Fuck Bethesda" dance. If it came out of some no-name studio it'd probably have been filed away as a dime-a-dozen generic sandbox.

Personally I'm surprised Hogwarts Legacy didn't make the list and I will be even more surprised if he doesn't do a follow-up video explaining how the transphobia was so awful that including it his list of shittiest games would be an insult to the other games on there.

 

[Oliver Onions]

I'd say Starfield belongs on the list largely because a company with Bethesda's resources and experience shouldn't be putting out such dated, relatively low-effort trash, but then I could also say the same about Jim.

All in all, though, this is a really weird list. There's some obvious omissions and a couple games (like the Last of Us knock-off on Switch) that are so utterly irrelevant and inconsequential he may as well have included some Newgrounds games.
