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.

Man at Arms

We are at a point; where anyone who doesn't already know where they stand, needs to hurry up and figure it out.  I refuse to be called or labeled an oppressor, in print or audio.  That trash talk will be rejected and opposed.  I can spend my money elsewhere, or I can write my own, or I can just use what I already have.  And even if the original works become unavailable; there's the OSR.  The cat is out of the proverbial bag, now.

Well all of the original works are quite available and are not monetizable by WotC.  Why give WotC money to buy older content digitally when they tell you its racist.  Stupidest thing WotC did was to label content made by their betters as racist trash and the stupidest thing WotC continues to do is let its whore employees spread their leftard filth as advertising, its really malvertising.  If Hasbro was worth studying, I wonder how much WotC has lost to piracy, probably enough to where they could have kept at least 100 head count a year easily.

Not just piracy. Of course, the stupid normies, after the OGL fiasco, just moved to other woketard companies like Paizo and Monte Cook Publishing. Thank God for the OSR and thank God for TSR v Mayfair....

i'm more horrified by the seeming incredible reach this company seems to have exerted. And the damage they have done. They have certainly ruined a lot of games that I followed.

I think the connection to Sweet Baby Inc proper is through the Dark Alliance video game, but that's probably just the tip of the iceberg--WotC has had a lot of diversity consultants over the years.

(On a somewhat related note, I just found out this morning that Baldur's Gate III introduced a devil named Raphael into the mythology of the Forgotten Realms. Using the name of one of the three canonically named archangels for a devil is rather tone-deaf and mildly offensive, IMO.)

You may not be aware of the DEI/cultural offense code of conduct but insensitivity towards Christians, whites, and anything related to western culture is actively encouraged by the wokesters.

Yes!  The idea that they are trying not to offend is ridiculous.  They have no problem offending white people, Christians or many others.  They in fact, actively try to do so. 

They are Jacobins pushing their cultural revolution and nothing more.

It's not the only one, this isn't even an exhaustive list:

I've heard them called the successful Feminist Frequency. They certainly flew under my radar. I never heard about them until a week or so ago.
The notion of an exclusionary and hostile RPG community is a fever dream of zealots who view all social dynamics through a narrow keyhole of structural oppression.

TLDR:  Just watch the full McIntosh video if you don't give a damn, greatest and catchiest troll video ever, we need to do something like that for Kyle Brink seriously.  If someone has the talent, please do it to keep Kyle in the news and the pressure on Hasbro to do something.


Well if you watch fat Hangry Shoe, you can listen to him stand for Anita, I mean hard core, he wanted a piece of those hoop rings, maybe to use it as a funnel holder to shove lard down his fat ass.  She put on a presentation that was taped where she said she wasn't a gamer and that she was going to go after video games for feminism.  Really amazing white knighting seeing the old video.  It would be like someone transitioning therpgpundit, putting him on X and an orchiotomy and having the pundit telling people to leave Perkins alone.  Yeah it did a number on his subscriber base.



Hangry Joe knew that, saw it and stills supported the cunt.  Oh there is a whole slew of lore on her.  Gamers we hated the cunt because she was the first one to fuck up game studios, she contributed greatly to Biowares downfall.  She used a dude she was fucking McIntosh to play the games and write the shit and she'd present.  That was when Hangry Joe was about tree fifty lighter.



Don't go full McIntosh...



She ran a number of successful kickstarters and delivered less than half of what she promised but suckers kept giving her money.  I guess McIntoss decided he wanted his pussy without a side of yeast and left Feminist Frequency and they collapsed thereafter.  Anita tried to grift on her own, but not being a gamer she's tarded  it.  She went after a Doom release AND that finally got gamers including her stans like Hangry Joe to stop supporting her and she shriveled up to a channel with less than 5K views a video and she had to fire almost all of her staff.

Essentially video games came before RPG's for the amount of penetration and destruction of staff.  Gamergate was the appropriate response and it did take her out, but the culture still went ahead.  However game companies did eventually learn.  And its helped with the blocklist on Sweet Baby Inc for instance getting built.  There is a cultural antibody in gaming against these faggots.  The tripple A game studios ignores low sales and we watch their studios shut down.  It hasn't happened to WotC yet, but it's coming.
