I did do a cursory check to see if this was a repost before posting. It is and has some pretty fun discussion so I recommend checking out the original post! But that original post has a broken image link both on ttrpg.network and on my instance lemmy.zip, so I figured it was fair to post again.

Not being given the option for alt text, so here's a transcript instead.

TranscriptA tumblr post by @normal-horoscopes.

Elf video games: 300 hour jrpgs with legions of characters and several novels worth of text. Labrynthine upgrade trees and customization options. The most insufferably unintuitive Ul possible. A single turn based battle can take hours. Every character has an ennui stat.

Dwarf video games: Basebuilding strategy FPSs that has a whole wiki page on the flexile vs tensile strengths of different building materials. Dwarven rhythm games have minigames where you have to manage supply lines. Mortals cannot comprehend dwarven grand strategy games.

Halfling video games: What appears on the surface to be a viscerally calming farming sim is actually an extraordinarily complex social combat game about cutthroat HOA politics.

Goblin video games: Wildly unbalanced collectathon gatchas where half the fun is finding new hilariously broken strategies. Zany uberviolent team shooters about bugs. MOBAs so bad it's almost art.

Orc video games: Addictive in-browser flash games with names like "Beast Crush 4" and "Borag Meat Game." The art is always kinda bad but in a charming way. The music always slaps.

#humans only have one game in this world and its counterstrike source

Also incredibly related is this tumblr post which I might go post here separately at some point. Or not.

Dice Time Out (thelemmy.club)

Not getting the option for alt text, so I'll put it here.

alt textA tumblr post by @memewhore, showing an Amazon listing: "DnD Dice Jail - Time Out Chair & Dunce Hat - Punish Your Bad Dice in our Chair Of Shame - Accessories / Gift for Dungeons and Dragons...." and the picture with the listing indeed shows a d20 in a small chair, with a red dunce cap on it.

@clickity-clack-math-rocks adds "I just need everyone to acknowledge this review of the misbehaving math rock chair" and posts a screenshot of a review. The review says "I've been struggling with some very poorly behaved dice during my current dnd campaign. So many crit fails, horrible luck on the wild magic table, and the list goes on. Even just having this chair present helps the dice remember who they are here to serve. I've had to make a few public examples, but after that the dice have been staying in line, even the d100s. My dm doesn't even know what to do anymore."

Hear ye, hear ye! Tales From the Tables is back with episode 59: Descent into Undermountain!

Tonight on TFTT: Eriawynn is terrified, IliadGPT provides exposition, and Redwen discovers echo!


Apologies for running late once again. Even though I no longer have my day job (well, NGL partially because of it), it's been a rough couple of months, dealing with little bean's school application paperwork... and a blown headgasket. Yay lucky me. ๐Ÿ˜ฃ

Aiming the next episode at April 3rd to cushion things a little bit while spreading them somewhat evenly. This should give me a bit of much needed time to breathe and take care of all the burning emergencies piled up around me ๐Ÿ˜…

Head = empty (thelemmy.club)

alt textMy brain coming up with mechanics: (smart) Patrick from Spongebob Squarepants looking through a microscope, taking some notes

My brain coming up with story and characters: (dumb) Patrick that accidentally nailed a board to his head

I know copying/adapting an already existing story/character isn't unheard of, but my goldfish memory can never remember any
