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.

Quote from: Rob Necronomicon on February 02, 2023, 09:47:08 AMThat was pathetic alright... Unfortuntely they are the only game in town. So I buy from them regularly. If there was another way I'd be all over it.

Apparently, there IS another way!

But if that's the case, then I think that would bring drivethru's censorship policy to a whole new level.  :(

I haven't bought anything from then since they made Venger ban/rewrite his  Rainbow Crystal Utopia.

That was pathetic alright... Unfortuntely they are the only game in town. So I buy from them regularly. If there was another way I'd be all over it.

I remember they also banned some other chap for having ACAB somewhere in a book. Apparently, Tenkar cried to them or some shit.

There IS another way, you could sell/buy on the freespeech gamestore called BigGeekEmporium

https://biggeekemporium.com/

I'm aware of BGE. It's a great concept! Buuuuut they don't have much stuff that I want. Or the stuff I do want I've already bought previously (like a lot of Red Room's material).

I hope more publishers use it in the future.

Yeah I would sign up with BGE but besides their small catalogue, their interface is worse than DTRPG's, and that's saying a lot!

What kind of gamer are you? We're legendary at buying gaming stuff we don't need, and quite good at buying stuff we didn't even want!

What about that one campaign that you were going to run, but didn't run, and probably won't run? You need a new book for that one!  8)

Agreed, but that requires the current publishers find sales on BGE.

Sign up and complain about their interface. They need to hear it from potential customers. They need to hear "I want to give you money, but your tech boogers wound my soul"

Well there is a new book coming out with a South American theme.

QuoteKoboa is a South American Fantasy setting developed by a 100% South American dev team. We count on devs from Ecuador, Brazil, Peru, Chile and Argentina, as well as members of the Xukuru, Quechua and Kichwa Indigenous peoples.
Wonder if this will implode or get attacked.

I'd welcome it as long as it's not something stupid and woke like Coyote and Crow, and more along the lines of FGU's Bushido, which is just a good fantasy treatment of feudal Japan.

Cool if you like woke dredge:

Laresians = Europeans, who are of course evil colonialists thankfully defeated by the indigenous peoples who (some) have no concept of sex and/or gender.

The stunning and brave indigenous peoples have forms, not races because raicismism, and all the evil entities they encounter fight are OF COURSE due to the invaders raping the land.

The Koboans (Stunning, brave and peaceful indigenous peoples in perfect harmony with the land and who never killed another human nor made war before the EVIL Laresians arrived) are so magical now that they can even change their sex, even if they don't have a concept of such.

I'm betting 50& are gay, 50% are transgender, 100% are stunning and brave people of colour.

Of course there are also transracial, ejem transform, ejem what the fuck do you call it? People.

The Sialgot, are not natives, but being stunning and brave people of colour travelled there to defeat the evil colonizers and then proceeded to colonize a part of the continent, but this is good colonization because not white.

For the monsters they rolled on some random tables and went: Yep, that's good enough.

Like I said, it's woke dredge.

At least I don't see a screed demanding huwhite people to buy but not play their shit.

Just to clarify, I haven't read the preview yet, so that wasn't a comment on the material. Just that it's a new RPG with a free preview available.
