if mike mearls designed gay sex he would want it involve his 15-year-old self's hand bc it would have to feel like it did when he was in high school

Come play Rogue Trader, some dudes level 1 first session ended with him battling on volcano against some demon dude over a planet which they just orbitally bombarded anyway. Its like dnd but without all the terrible but replaced with the 80s.

Considering there was no miscommunication, then, do you wish to actually discuss or defend Mike Mearls's many, many failings as a game designer and human being, or are you going to continue to make these grade school "no u" burns?

I'm fairly certain he's chiding you for your choice of insults. His, and my, issues with this are twofold:
a) homophobic slurs are not cool.
b) homosexuals have enough problems without being associated with Mike Mearles. That's just mean.

Uh excuse me I think you'll find that Next is the video game given it's dumbed down for babbies approach to all the parts that aren't literally ripped from AD&D SHUT UP MOM I'M NOT GETTING OLD.

oh and since this is my turf i can say battling a demon on a volcano and orbital bombing is just fluff, it has nothing to do with mechanics and doesn't explain the appeal of a system in anyway.

someone said in the shadowrun thread that they run shadowrun even though it's a bad system because of the setting.

as if it was impossible to divorce the setting from the mechanics.

Nah theres totally rules for orbital bombardment. Rogue trader gets super mechanics heavy. Also I've been shitposting the NEXT thread for a long rear end time now. Your going have to step up your a game a little bit Mr swine.

i'm a ss rank shitposter and hero of fyad-lite, i think you don't know who you are messing with.

racial priority in shadowrun lets you get bonus special attributes which are different from normal attributes. some races are only available at a higher racial priority, while e just means you are a human with +1 to uh, idk how shadowrun actually works, it's real dumb.

Wait wait wait, hold on. In shadowrun some of the races are just rated higher than everyone else. Like theres a measurable system for telling which race is just worse than everyone else? I'm going A priority so i can be a white supremecist but be factually correct at the same time.
