One of his otherwise-bland characters has Ye Tragicke Backstorye involving rape, because she's a woman and that's the only way to make them interesting (am I right fellas) and during the voting for said webcomic popularity contest, the most recent strip during the last round of voting was that character having a traumatic flashback about her rapist. So people clicked on the link and got a faceful of man-on-(snake)woman violence without any prior warning, which made someone complain that it was a) kind of triggery; and b) why so much rape and violence anyway? If there's one thing that nerds hate, it's something they love/enjoy/care about/vaguely know of being besmirched by Some Goddamn Female, and before you could say "men's rights activist" the shitlordery was in full swing. Hunt made a big blog post about it on the webcomic site, saying that this woman was crazy because the latest comic had nothing to do with rape! Which was true, since it had updated since her initial post, but never let facts get in the way of a good rant. He went on to say that she shouldn't be blamed for lying about his webcomic (or something along those line, at any rate), and here was her email address so all his fans could very pointedly not harass her. Which was either blithering stupidity or uncharacteristic subtlety, neither of which boded well for the poor woman.

Way back when in the history of the Internet, someone photoshopped and colourised a picture of Hitler and put it up on HotOrNot.com to see how people would rate history's greatest monster. Fuego Fish fucked around with this message at 15:39 on Aug 19, 2016 |

Between Goblins and Drow Tales, are there any webcomics focusing on D&D monsters that aren't terrible?

It's weird how the goblins in Order of the Stick manage to be far more likeable and sympathetic, despite being overtly evil, than the goblins from Goblins, who are currently learning that child murder is actually an objectively good act.

Rygar201 posted:Also, someone is going to have to explain the current Goblins child murder thing now. So the yellow lumpy turd goblin became a paladin and managed to get his grubby little goblin mitts on a magical axe, within which was imprisoned a lovely demon for being a piece of poo poo. This axe needed to be wielded by a paladin brave and true to counteract the evil poo poo that demons wanna do. I'm skimming over eighteen paragraphs of info dump here, them's the cliff notes. Meanwhile, there's this other paladin in the story, called KORE, who is a one-dwarf murder machine out to eradicate evil as a concept. Except he does this by assuming anyone and anything that comes into contact with evil must be burned to the ground, including children. How he manages to retain his paladin powers while literally murdering children has been a Just recently the demon-imprisoning axe broke due to the DM being a piece of poo poo, so now the demon is trying to escape, and one of the lesser demons that was trapped in the axe ("like the fleas on the back of a dog" apparently) pops up to tell everyone that Kore created the axe and is still a paladin because, hey, murdering children is only evil if you're closed-minded enough to assume that everyone who doesn't share your viewpoint is evil. And this is what I get for following the webcomics thread

Android Blues posted:Minrah was honestly extremely brave, because there's little more overwhelming than trying to participate in a fight with high level D&D characters when you're a low level scrub. None of your stuff works and you die in one attack. Meanwhile everyone around you is summoning forcefields and transforming into elementals and suchlike. Well, except for the fighter.

Hey. And I meant in a general "D&D 3.x/5e hates the fighter and by extension everyone who ever plays a fighter willingly" kind of way. Roy clearly has the benefit of being a protagonist in a story, rather than a glorified pack mule.

Cuntellectual posted:I always found it weird, having not played DnD until after stuff like WoW, that Fighters couldn't throw their weapons so hard that the victim burst into gibs and damaged other people or something. Fourth edition fighters had a lot of amazing builds, especially once the Martial Power supplement dropped. Playing a brawler fighter was absolutely amazing, you could grab someone with a single action and then use them as a shield, or a weapon. Throw 'em across the room? Sure, why not.

In the list of problems with Goblins (and Thunt), the drawing doesn't even make the top three. Unless you count "holy poo poo why is there so much unnecessary body horror" as coming under the umbrella of "drawing", but I'd say it's more to do with awful narrative (the number one problem Goblins has).

Clarste posted:I don't know anything about Goblins or its author, but from what I've heard from other transgender writers, body horror and transhumanism are both pretty common as ways to express/cope with the general feeling of being uncomfortable in your own body at all times. Goblins, as a comic, is like watching the world's worst, most grognardy DM try and simultaneously run three separate groups of players through the same half-assed homebrewed D&D campaign. While everyone's on meth, both in-character and out. It also has some incredibly bad takes on what makes a "good" or "bad" paladin, compared to OotS's stellar examples.

Patrick Spens posted:But you get that you could stop reading it right? I agree with your complaints about Goblins, which is why I stopped reading it after I checked it out a decade ago. Why do some many people give this comic space in their head if they don't like it? I don't read it

Sanford posted:I used to read Goblins out of morbid curiosity, and I just caught up with the last twenty or so strips. Abridged version: the main group of lumpy goblins has been fleeing from this evil Terminator paladin, and ran into a "dungeon crawl" for safety. They've been using the shittily-designed traps and gimmick puzzles to try and defeat this unstoppable plot device. Now, for seemingly no reason at all, said evil paladin has basically revealed to the goblins that he steals the souls of everyone he kills, and can use their alignments instead of his own. Which means the only reason he hasn't fallen as a paladin for the various evil acts he does on a daily basis is because he can somehow fool the god he serves by holding up a decoy lawful good soul. Like Belkar's lead plate joke but played serious and also way dumber. If you're asking "how the gently caress does any of that work" then you've probably put more thought into it than the author.
