Unless he just wrote himself a little fanfic.

The dude made hyper broken wizards that TPK'ed us. He also cosplayed in an SS officer uniform in his spare time, and a couple months after that incident he tried to ask me out over Facebook messenger. I'll just say that WW games certainly draw a particular crowd to them.

Nuns with Guns posted:My last experience playing a White Wolf game was with some furries who made vampires who had been hibernating for 300 years. They kept derailing every conversation by demanding we explain a word in the prior sentence to them, like "the 1980s" and "television" and "the n-word." My character left and I quit the game after that. I haven't had a great run of luck with dedicated fans of those games.

The incident got the "Head of Story" fired. He was a guy who worked for Paradox Games, and convinced Paradox to buy White Wolf after the EVE Online company decided to sell it. He was such a VtM mega fan he'd previously won a competition to cosplay as Dracula for anniversary art in a Vampire supplement. And he blew it all by deciding he needed to add some edgelord social commentary to a Vampire rulebook.

The only thing people say about it is "It is shockingly tasteful for... exactly as awful of a thing as it is."

I thought VtM sounded kinda cool in the late nineties/early aughts because I was young and stupid and enjoyed the card game. I tried three different cities groups throughout that time as i moved and they were all white supremacist accepting. That's my White Wolf story.

Nuns with Guns posted:Chechen authorities also arrested the hapless third party people translating and distributing the game in Chechnya over that. Lol, what a mess of a game. The more I think about it the more funny ill-advised poo poo I remember like "stake-launching minigun photoshoot art" and "implying that vampires did 9/11" and "released a documentary where they repeatedly poo poo on Vampire: The Requiem and say its a game for stupid babies and also sell their VTM branded makeup line". Also I always get Wraith and Geist mixed up. Grassy Knowles posted:I thought VtM sounded kinda cool in the late nineties/early aughts because I was young and stupid and enjoyed the card game.

Like literally they had some place on my walk home that they had sectioned out to play games at midnight. So I work a closing shift and just walk through idly not paying any attention to the weirdly dressed people sitting around because whatever it's a city and its late. Well they decided to incorporate my presence into their larp by declaring me a prey item. No one actually touched me or even really got that close or anything but they followed me around for half a block saying weird poo poo to me and each other and when I finally stopped and asked them what the gently caress it took like another two minutes to get some guy to just admit they were larping. Right afterwards he went back to saying he would drink my ocular fluids. Just a wild group of people
