Tabletop Roleplaying Games (D&D, Pathfinder, CoC, ETC.)

[Fag Albert]

Mind you, I think Elon is a fucking poser and an attention whore but I find some joy in how much he makes these retards seethe just by existing, they won't ever realise that people like him feed on the attention/relevance and so the worst thing that they could do to is ignoring him.

He inspires the same, childlike joy as that one weird kid you could dare to go over to the monkey bars and blow snotrockets at the girls

WotC has tested half-elves and Half orcs because they “find the ‘half-‘ construction to be inherently racist.”

Grand Wizards of the Coast can’t have folks miscegenatin’ after all.

Hilarious how these fucks twist themselves into such knots over imaginary racism that they end up saying the most racist shit of all time. Cletus and Bubba would be saying cool it with the racist remarks.

well, somebody has tried to make an Exalted alternative that actually works.

Looks pretty good actually

He even said the whole "As a gay asian man..." bit, wondering if he caught heat for something he did or if he's using the controversy to gain views/subscribers, my money is on the former since last time he released a video like this it was right after saying some antifa/palestina shit.
Edit: Found the post which mentioned it

Oh it’s not that he’s gay, it’s that he is a political activist for BAMN. By Any Means Necessary (BAMN) was in the national consciousness a few years back during the Berkeley protests. Radical left-wing activists.

I believe that he put that video out there because of clip of him at a pro-Palestine protest was doing the rounds online.

He seems rational. He knows his politics are radical and that it will upset some people. That’s a lot better than many other people in the hobby who will just scream bigot and the merest disagreement. Hopefully he doesn’t bleed his politics into his games.

The very same people who were grandstanding about the OGL last year are now running to defend Hasbros and WotC oh wait no, I mean "creators" who happen to work for those two.

"Akshaully am not defending Hasbro, it's about how Elon Musk is bad"

Leftists, tranneis and faggots are the biggest dick suckers for mega corporations in the west. The anti-Gary Gygax tranny on YouTube is now freaking out over the idea of Elon Musk buying Hasbro. This is the same freak that tried to #MEtoo the Critical Role crew muh transphobic jokes.

tourist detected

Not just a rando tourist, but one of those horrid shitlib influencers who usually jerk off about how to design better bughives, but occasionally venture outside their pet topics to share their predictable NPC talking points on other things as well. The Euro smarm is the cherry on the top which makes him particularly insufferable.

Also, LOL, didn't watch.

Only time MSM cares about D&D is because Musk bad

https://ca.news.yahoo.com/transformers-fans-horrified-idea-elon-135210672.html

That's just the most recent article on this. There's dozens more but they all state the same thing
I personally think it's a good idea that he buys it so I don't know what fans they're talking about

Only recent time Hasbro stock recently improved is when Elon Musk asked about buying the company.

After November 4th it's been fluctuating. It's been dropping due to the lawsuit in October. Before that it was doing quite well for a toy company.
Also, Clownfish TV is a joke of a channel.

I could go without the man wearing obnoxious lipstick as part of the thumbnail.

 

[Quintus]

The amount of Elon haters running their mouths in defense of WotC is absolutely infuriating, they will make up bullshit and pull stats out of their asses just to try to "own" Musk. Many know absolutely NOTHING about Hasbro, WotC or even D&D and just have to comment because Elon makes them so damn mad and any minute not spent hating him is wasted time.
They don't realize a lot of D&D players (among others, like magic players) hate wotc just as much if not more than Musk (if they even hate the guy at all).

I'm not Elon's biggest fan, mostly to do with his habit of knocking up mentally ill women and not unbanning null from Twitter. But, even my Elon hating players begrudgingly agreed with me when this came up and I said "Hey we can't do any worse.". If we're lucky, he'll buy it and put someone in charge who actually gives a shit about the game.

If 6E D&D and other 5th anniversary merchandise sold as good as WOTC claims. They should be flying high all month long.

Before that it was doing quite well for a toy company.

Nigga Hasbro, the Google of toy companies. They are a borderline monopoly. Yet they are regularly being outperformed by Mattel. Hasbro outsourced power rangers to playmates a company that has no issues selling toys actually improved Hasbro's stock. Hasbro shouldn't be struggling at all. Hasbro were doing fine until they got into movies and tried to be a Disney-like media empire. Now Hasbro is promising investors they will stop investing their own money after the new D&D movie and Transformers One flopped.

I see that you don't collect anything or have bothered to look into things.

(I thought this was already posted, but maybe the downtime rolled it back?)

Sooner or later Hasbro themselves will get a CEO who will torch WOTC. Hasbro has already fire woke tards at WOTC as it is.

Sooner.

TL:DW: Hasbro is getting sued by it's own investors for constantly over producing shit nobody wants and then lying about it.

Also, LOL, didn't watch.

[Mr. Manchester]

So I don't play MtG, I don't buy new D&D books and probably won't even if they made something really good. That being said Elon buying all of Hasbro would be the funniest god damn thing ever and my fingers are crossed for my specific interest in laughing at retards on the internet. The D&D staff will get gutted and replaced, Magic the Gathering might go in some card pricing crisis and of course you have bronies, spergs that collect transformers, other weirdos obsessed with some other toy or game all having to kneel to the autism emperor.

I don't even know what would happen exactly, but I know it'd be funny.

What an ugly thin lipped man. When you have such ugly lips why would you then wear bright clown-like magenta to bring focus to the fact you have no lips? Like the old saying, you can't put lipstick on a pig...

Anyway. This man is gay and gross and Elon trying to buy Hasbro and gain the rights to DnD is the funniest thing I've heard today.

Hasbro outright blames Bronies for tanking the MLP IP. Even when the brony fandom at it’s biggest adult buying toys was a small minority. Hasbro outright blames Bronies for tanking the MLP IP. Even when the brony fandom at it’s biggest adult buying toys was a small minority. Mattel and playmates know pandering to adults is a bad idea in the long term. Kids aren’t interested in TTRPGs like in the 80s and 90s. D&D players overwhelmingly adults.

I thought that at this point it was common knowlegde that Hasbro's D&D (and other franchises) toys didn't sell at all, whats new to me is the lying part (and the lawsuit but that one is recent). There was also that whole shitshow with the channel/media company they bought and did nothing with and lastly there is the fact they hesitated to release the sales numbers of D&D 2024 books so Elon's timing couldn't be better.

I've heard Goodman Games, Monte Cook, and Kobold Press do good work, but I've not checked them out enough to know.

Cook did a LOT of work in 3.0 - 3.5 for 3rd party publishers. Along with a lot of the OG TSR writers. At that time I had spent 1000+ dollars on various source books.
Sword and Sworceey, Legends and Lairs, Mongoose Publications.
The first time that I fired up Demon Souls I had to step back and say wait a fucking second. Then dug out The Book of Eldrich Might 3 - The Nexus. There are several Souls NPCs that are literally copy-paste straight from that source book and given a name change. Some are in Dark Souls as well.
I'm 99% sure that Miyazaki is a massive closet Pen and Paper nerd.
His work is pretty solid.
