This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

There's plenty of fun to be had with streams and watching people play. It's what got me into D&D in the first place -- I saw Chris Perkins running 4e for Robot Chicken's writers and thought: "I can do this."
Battle doesn\'t need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don\'t ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don\'t ask why I fight.

Shocking stuff indeed. Robot-on-robot rape when her male character was expecting an upgrade like Windows 95? The most shockin part is how many subscribers these two vaginas have. Murder, acts of torture, plundering corpses, extreme violence is ok in rpgs, but rape is a no no? What kind of a name is Elspeth anyway? I guess I'll chalk it up to parents with dyslexia. She doesn't even have any rpg content on her channel, but she has a makeup routine video. Voice actor. Yes...As for the GM or whatever. He's got the Seattle look. He's the kind of unisex face that pops up when I search Unsplash for CC0 images of men with beards when I'm really out for salty seamen types.

I'm happy to forward some royalty-free headshots of my salty-bearded Seattle face. I can't be a pirate in real life (too many health conditions) but surely I would love to be PLAYED as a pirate somewhere!

All of these are fine with the right group in a private game. With a public stream e-celeb game where many of their subscribers will be children, the default assumption for a content rating should be E like a Saturday morning cartoon. Cartoon violence is fine, cartoon sexual assault is a no no. I'm surprised this even needs explaining.

I kind of makes me wonder the nature of the person who needs to be told any kind of sexual assault is a no-no. If you need to be told it's a bad thing and not to be allowed at most tables I would say at least 90% if not more than it's telling to me at least what kind of person one is.

I'm surprised so many see this as sexual assault.  To me it came off as a bad Futurama gag.

Matt Groening had Homer Simpson raped by a panda.

Isn't his channel for paying subscribers? And he has run Zweihänder too. Isn't that supposed to be grim like it says on the cover? I began playing when I was 12 and there was ALOT of violence and great rejoicing for each hacked off limb.

What would Deliverance be without the rape scene? Rob Roy? Death Wish? What would the Golden horde be if they didn't herd off the women like cattle? Not everyone is playing scenarios from My Little Pony the RPG you know?

It is implied as a joke but not explicitly shown. They literally draw a curtain over the scene. Which is another thing Adam could have done instead of trying to come up with a detailed description of a robot orgasm.

He does have content only for subscribers, but the Far Verona game ends up on YouTube open to anyone.

No so much explicit sexual assault though, right?
