What are those house rules?

auto success sounds a lot like telling players the choices they made don't actually matter. What about resolving PC vs PC opposed checks? Or really any opposed checks -- this really seems like a variant on MTP mechanics. An ante/barter system is the pretty obvious answer to that question: Fate does...

Echoing the thanks to fbmf.

I've been working on homebrew for the better part of 2-3 years, but it's for Fate.

I just haven't really wanted to post here because it feels like without having an elfgame to dunk on, the "fuck you, suck a barrel of cocks" rhetoric got turned on each other, circular firing squad style. Now a lot of that was due to mask off moments, but it's exhausting. I can get the ent...

Corporations are scummy, something something Madonna/Whore complex something something fuck WotC. She could honestly make more money just doing OnlyFans stuff than fucking with WotC, why does it matter if she gets deplatformed by WotC? Big corporations don't matter once you've gotten your clout and ...

I'm specifically referring to the Star Wars franchise going straight into the shitter. A cynical person would say that the franchise had been in the shitter since Return of the Jedi, and is only beloved due to a combination of marketing and nostalgia, with a set of quality works you can count on on...

He's just terminally stupid.

If Thaumaturge to Kill isn't already an urban fantasy novel title, I'll be mildly upset on the Internet. I like making the Gish your generic hero/Fighter class, because Dragon Quest and also the Witcher. Also because I'm a giant weeb. Because of that, Hero, Brave or Bravo would be what I call it. Th...

Maybe my brain is broken, but I didn't read that image as homophobic or even homoerotic until I GIS'ed it and found it was from 120 Days of Sodom . But shit, the Den's defining meme (outside of the Tomes) is the homophobic as fuck "suck a barrel of cocks". We are/were lefty dirtbags who sa...

Why?

Some people don't seem to grasp that people outside of their bubble can see the shit they post on social media.

So am I supposed to read this as offensive because it's homophobic towards Mayor Pete or offensive towards Mayor Pete because it's likening him to a character slicing off someone's tongue in 120 Days of Sodom? Because likening him to a psychotic, murderous, sadistic fascist seems kind of worse than ...

Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken is good, clean anime fun that oozes style and has the catchiest intro ever.

Also seconding Chapo Trap House.

Came for the Tomes, stayed for the discussion of mechanics and improving them.

Also, generals aren't the problem, the violent intolerance of culture mingling is the problem. Quests getting ran off the board was a chilling effect for cross-culture posting that isn't bait. Also the /pol/ chuds.

Yeah, I specifically used that portion because the rest was pretty homophobic and/or generally shitty.

Not an image macro, but this has strong Kaelik energy.

This whole thing is fucked. Fucked in the standard way the US fucks South/Central America, but apparently with right wingers who might as well be the Iscariot from Hellsing. As an aside: you are the definition of "No you're not wrong, you're just an asshole," Kaelik. I hope you're not like...

From the two episodes I watched, I got the feeling Rick was a dirtbag Etherite from oMage.

Wouldn't this be where suspension of disbelief would come in? I think most people recognize that the behaviors shown in fiction don't really reflect how the real world work. You think too much of most people. For stuff people don't really get, fiction may be their only frame of reference. Even if i...

Has anybody seen Parasite? I've heard nothing but good things about it.

That's enough Pabst to get through every winter holiday.

The Adventurer's Almanac wrote:I see... are you saying it isn't really a satirical movie, then?

It's as much satire as Konosuba is.

Protagonist privilege allows for a lot of shitty messages to slip through to impressionable minds.

It's not really possible to dunk on AC0 any harder than he dunks on himself, so I have a question: why do people of, let's just say a nerdly persuasion gravitate so hard towards Libertarianism?

The Adventurer's Almanac wrote:It's really hard to take somebody seriously when they say "big yikes".

That's just the vernacular nowadays.

Also jesus fuck what happened to this thread? You don't normally see /pol/ meltdowns this bad outside of /tg/. Not even (most of) 4chan even uses the term Lamb got got for.

Someone fucked their tags.
