. Mabye you could use some of the stuff in it? Its pretty old news by now: https://kiwifarms.net/threads/awful-board-games-and-the-people-who-play-them.72506/
Ellison wasn't exactly a 'people person' to start with, and having White Wolf of all people print collections of his work just strikes me as an exercise in frustration.
I’ve got some big feels on this one so consider this a place holder for later (and I’ll edit this post tonight) but the NuWW debacle was several years in the making and not entirely their fault.
He actually suggested it as a joke, if I remember right. Of course, it still doesn’t excuse loudly continuing the joke past the point of stunned silence while the execs were next door.
I’ll get that fixed. Thanks for pointing it out!
I added some relevant information from those threads. F.A.T.A.L. and Onyx Path needed to be included for sure. I put in your screenshots and credited you as well.Hello I also made a thread on this but it failed because it was my first try
I’ve read enough stories and seen enough videos about players/DM trying to show horn in romance into a game so why would it be a good idea to make that the whole game. The fact it not only met its goal but fucking destroyed it makes me wonder who the hell is this for? The dime a dozen “queer” people in table top RPGs or the thirsty loners who wanna play out their discord RP fantasies.
It's extra hard to tell because I always assumed a real life encounter with 'that guy' is incredibly rare. At the very least 'that guy' never sticks around that long in a person to person game. Most of these people screaming on the internet don't have real friends to play with, mostly because they don't have real friends. They have weird assholes that ass pat them online. Most of the time 'that guy' just isn't invited back and any inquiries are answered with, "game is canceled".
I haven’t seen it. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was a thing in San Fran or Portland.
People paid 300,000 DOLLARS for this atrocious sexist and racist book? The stretch goal writers are clearly chosen from Twitter as they used their pronouns in the bio.
I’d say it’s about 50/50 but every That Guy I’ve met had very strong political beliefs and generally was very abrasive.
I’d say that’s generally true. They burn bridges and manage to get kicked from every group.
This is a recurring pattern of his. Over the course of 8 months he managed to get booted from every single Warhammer group and subreddit.
I’ve never heard of them being used I think the whole idea comes from some opinions article.
Closest I've seen was in a one shot online game where one player was spamming x while the GM was trying to describe the scene
The only time I've ever seen one used is at a table of pasty neckbeards playing Pathfinder Society trying to persuade some m'ladies to join them.
