This all reminds me of when I used to play mtg at shops in college. I met a friend of a friend who introduced himself as "gay lenny" and boy was he gay lol
Yeah im not surprised you think that.The whole "Now, now guys...let's just all be friends," approach has achieved absolutely nothing. In fact, it's allowed the wack jobs to push deeper and deeper into every aspect of culture.
I have a lot more use and respect for people that actively take an aggressive stance against the people/ideas that have brought us here.
You and frenzic have both made the assumption that he won't be able to find a game with players that already agree with him and that he should just walk in guns blazing. That's just as insufferable at the table as blue hair safespace wrong think nonsense.
Hey to each their own. And that's totally fine.~12 years or so TTRPG free at this point.
Yep. Literally every book. I had to buy from 4 different vendors because PF2 is incredibly popular right now.Damm every pf2 book? $$$. But that does sound pretty awesome dude
I was being a bit hyperbolic, but they're not far behind. Paizo employs a fair number of individuals that would be nuked from orbit if their social media comments/views were tweaked ever-so-slightly. And, of course, that trash makes its way into the final product.are they?
If you find a table, sit down and play it like youre a functionally social adult. Pretend it if you have to.
Paizo is 150% woke but the difference is that they don't allow it to affect game mechanics.are they?
They also banished the word "Golem" for exactly the same reasons. There are a handful of other completely innocuous words that Paizo has deemed verboten.Lich "phylacteries" were renamed to "soul cages" due to offending Jews or something but they are functionally the same thing.

All mention of "race" was removed from PF2 but the mechanic wasn't, it's just called "ancestry" now. (This wasn't entirely for a woke reason though, it also fits with their character building abbreviation ABC - Ancestry, Background, Class.)
Slavery is no longer present in official PF2e adventures but it still exists in certain regions. For example, Paizo will no longer print adventures about Halfling slaves in Cheliax, but slavery does still exist there, as mentioned by the lore books.
Lich "phylacteries" were renamed to "soul cages" due to offending Jews or something but they are functionally the same thing. Ancestry-based ability score penalties were determined to be racist so there is now an optional rule to ignore them, but that rule is optional and they are going to continue to print new ancestries with ability bonuses and penalties.
Paizo was the first to do "accessibility items" (i.e. battle wheelchairs) but instead of just saying "dungeons have ramps now," they designed the accessibility items with the means to overcome things like stairs and even ladders. Essentially you don't have to change the design/descriptions of your dungeons just because someone wants to RP as a vegetable.
Yeah I looked some of it up yesterday. Paizo is definitely infected with the virus but WotC is an order of magnitude worse.They also banished the word "Golem" for exactly the same reasons. There are a handful of other completely innocuous words that Paizo has deemed verboten.
WotC and Paizo are effectively the same beast with a slightly different coat.
