Doesn’t Battletech suffer from stock issues too? Heck so does Games Workshop now, and I imagine corvus belli is gonna get slammed with their recent infinity shilling for the new edition.

Either nerds consoom to much now or companies are utterly afraid of shelf warming.
 
They just think the card with alternative Wizard Belle is cool.
Yeah, when we all know the real best card...

BTW if anybody wants to try the game:

If you support him on patreon, you can build your own decks and test on there.
 
140 Canadian? That's an absolutely insane even when comparing it to stuff from GW.
It's "Mini agnostic" and you can buy the Stls they designed. It's a fun game, but the fact that not only would I need to spend the cost of a discounted Combat Patrol, then print or kitbash the minis, to me is just ludicrous.

Now I understand the costs involved, commissioning artists, publishers, etc, but it doesn't make much sense to me when I could buy 1000pts of 40k Minis and download 4th Ed rules for free and get games in. If the purchase came with two of the 8 factions that'd be a better use of my money.

I've checked the website and a PDF of the rules can be bought for 30 of your Canadian funny money. That might soften the blow slightly if your still interested in playing it.

This guy was also bragging about his hardcopy of Thirsty Sword Lesbians, so he's almost certainly a troon.
I don’t get why troons and their allies suck this game off. It has very few good ideas (the Joshi Puroresu in SPACE setting in the Advanced Lovers and Lesbians book is my personal standout), and the Powered by the Apocalypse mechanics are unsuitable for said ideas.

They don't suck that game off for its gameplay concepts.

They suck the girldick because it's a game about lesbians fucking. And these people are terminally online coom-brained morons who fetishize lesbians so much they claim to be lesbians. It's not about the game, however little of it there is, it's about the fetish.

The idiot now supports abuse, since that's essentially how all the classes in that pile of shit works. It's either abuser or abused.

Also it has one good setting, which was the airship pilots one. There's like two others that could work, but you'd have to lean hard into being a shitpost.

Could you give a TL;DR, because that's 8 hours of videos you linked to.
Basically, the book's shit. It has a slightly smarmy and arrogant style of writing, the system used is mechanically garbage, and the classes basically tend to be either the abuser in a lesbian relationship or the victim if you read the actual personalities and ideas for them.

The worst and most blatant ones are the Infamous (former villain idea), and scoundrel (rakish rogue), since one is essentially the one that promises not to beat you anymore, and the latter will cuckold you. The victims that are most obvious are the Seeker, who literally has escaped prior abuse, and the devoted, who will let you break them if it means they stay with you. The others can be interpreted like that.

PBTA is a shitty system. It mechanically by weight of dice constantly will give you "success with complication", and it relies heavily on the DM to actually fucking tinker with it and improv to make it work. It also does not handle combat well at all, but most systems still do this. Most PBTA systems will allow you to bully people to death by calling them a nerd.

Most of the settings are shit. The most blatantly shit ones are the sex worker setting where you play as stripper priests and a shitty magical lesbian coffee house. The only good setting is the Dangerous Violets, because it is essentially steam/clockpunk air pirates. The other settings with promise is ultragay He-man where you camp as hard as possible, and maybe shitty cyberpunk.

Also the reason that troons like the book is that it supports them being able to try and bully lesbians into dating them. This declaration is also right before a neopronoun spam of all the bullshit sexual identities these clowns invent to pretend they are oppressed and special rather than develop a fucking personality.

That should sum it up. There's bits I missed, but I feel like these are the core issues with this book.
 
Sorry if late, or dumb.

I don't follow the TTRPG community much. I watch Questing Beast and a few culture war channels that shit on Hasbro occasionally like Clownfish TV. I say this because YouTube has decided to start dropping this guy's videos in my recommend list.

His entire channel is this. Sub 50 view videos, all seething about old school D&D and OSR community. I have no idea who he is, and why he has a stick up his arse and why he's making so many videos of unhinged rants about OSR. Or why a nobody is getting pushed to my recommendations.

Holy shit. This guy’s uploading multiple videos per day. Who does that?

If there’s one thing I’ve learned just from observing it over the years, both the based and woke factions of the OSR are composed of a bunch of shrieking, spiteful mutants that spend more time trying to make each other bleed than they do making games.

As with most "communities", bitching is easy. Creating a good product is hard.

Old school DND products by some of the easiest things to create and these people somehow create some of the worst supplements that would literally take me I don't know an hour to create
and they're charging like $30.00 for them man these people are shekel grabbing goblins

Oddly enough, that's what at least one of the videos is about. Complaining how OSR (and BroSR, which I assume is a different thing?) need WotC because their content is just shitting on 5e. At the same time, he seems to complain that OSR welcomes former 5e content creators into the fold instead of gatekeeping them out. I think. His rants aren't exactly clear.
