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.

[Beef against ?] Lets hear what games you have a beef against and Why.

Quote from: flyingmiceYes indeed! It's rare to see something so well done in this medium, particularly with nothing important at steak. I mean, this is just a place where we can all chew the fat together, which is marble-ous, but some take it too seriously, and make nasty, cutting remarks, which are hard to swallow. When I'm making a choice on a lean, trimmed-off, low-fat system, I want all the gristley details, with a minimum of spam.

I should have known my remarks would be a prime target for further ribbing, but I didn't think we would roast this topic so much, continuing to chuck even more puns into the mix. Perhaps we need to put this out to pasture and moove on. I'll shoulder the blame for starting this, but Clash and Rotwang were right there at my flank to round out things. Anyway, I don't want to stew over this topic any further.

Well, I'm not usually cowed by things like this, but I made a complete hash out of it compared to you, GO. I'm not loin when I say you didn't skirt around the issues, yet my puns were just chopped liver compared to yours. You got right to the marrow, with a fully fleshed out argument, yet left my sides aching. Apparently I'm rasher than you, and I didn't let my puns gel, instead of bacon them until they were done to a turn. Anyway, I concede! You are the RPGSite Lard of Punning.

Where were you guys when I tried to get a Dying Earth game off the ground, or is that pasture?

I think you're confusing the Dying Earth with Xanth here ;)

The only game I really have a beef with is Cyberpunk V3.

Because it is not Cyberpunk, it's Cyberpunk elements mixed with Anime and turned into a joke.

If you look at the review of people who bought this on rpgnow the majority of the reviews are bad.   People complained about it on the R. Talsorian forums and now they are gone.

Someone really needs to kick Mike Pondsmith in the nuts for what he did to Cyberpunk.   But then again he was away for awhile and in the time he totally lost touch with gamers.

I found CP3v to be more Transhuman themed than CYBERpunk themed.
More Dark Angel (tv series) than Robocop (movies).

TRANSpunk if you wish :D
