Out of curiosity, which youtuber?

Went to see Giants last week with my family and we too had a right laugh at the scales.

Also fascinating how many prehistoric aninals are basically named "big beastie" but in latin or greek or both.

They're very pretty games but I never found them very interesting under all that.

I like that. I shall definitely be doing that going forward.

Same. I've also started adding "...and everyone is doomed." because I'm kinda tired of people insisting "faction X will win in the end," when it very much will not.

Look at you reducing women to names, clothes and bodyparts, now that's old school sexism.
But what should I expect from a transphobe who only sees women as how they aren't men.
Are women even people to you or just vectors for your transphobia and misogyny?

You're the one who fell for the lies, that's your problem. Says a lot that your only defense is to assert you are all women. Classic transphobe misogyny stereotyping women.

What a desperate smear but what's another lie when you're whole ideology is based on them. You're projecting again, the entire transphobic movement is manufactured by misogynists. Transphobia is inherently thought terminating across all genders.
You're being misogynistic again, calling women men.

As ever you resort to games in lue of substance, typical, and mediocre. Your assertions aren't true by default and never will be.
You can't dodge from the Epstein links that easy. How does it feel to learn your beliefs were manufactured by the likes of him, and you bought it hook line and sinker?

You don't have either. But you do have a self deceptive belief based on appeals to emotion and misinformation.
Can't tell whether you're doing it knowingly or just a mark. Which is it?
You should ask your pals that, they're the ones who want it, they say so in the epstein files.

Projection is the only tool you have.

24.02.2026 22:38 ๐Ÿ‘ 2 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

You have it backwards. That's the world transphobes want.

That's why it looked familiar!

Yeah it's really odd how little support they get.

It's a mixed bag no doubt.
Personally I think more classes, like Inventor, need ways to interact with reload (and capacity) in an interesting way. Surely it can't be that hard.
For that feat I just don't get why melee weapons get to fly around but reload was specifically stonewalled.

19.02.2026 21:05 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

But that's not a reason to make the feats for weapon Inventor not work with reload weapons.

Like the feat I refer to lets a melee weapon fly around the battlefield. So a rocket powered great axe or maglev morningsar are okay but heaven forbid a jezail or arbalest fire more than twice.

I just don't understand why they made reload weapons bad on weapon Inventor. So you can be a ranged Inventor but crossbows and guns are always going to be worse compared to bows. Like there's a late feat that says to the effect of "your weapon attacks multiple enemies but not if it has reload."

Aren't the Tomb Kings the ones who have the ony skeleton archers in the setting because they use arrows that home in on the living?

Oh don't be silly.

Would a cyan or similar like a teal or aqua work?

07.02.2026 08:51 ๐Ÿ‘ 3 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

They did have me concerned, still am a little, but season 2 did clear things up in a positive direction. Still not sure why they had Shady Sands is in the wrong place in the flashback.

It's also a crippling inditment of the Empire.
At every level they fail and largely because of internally conflicting goals.
Vader wants to capture Luke and that actively prevents the Empire destroying the Rebels on Hoth.

Yeah tere's a fundamental issue with how it handles single entity units, especially heros, and how those deal and take damage.
Not necessarily that they modeled it but how they modeled it.

I thought its crime was throwing everything TLJ had done out the window and then trying to cram two movies worth of terrible ideas into one movie and doing it so badly it made all 3 prequels worse retroactively?

16.01.2026 07:44 ๐Ÿ‘ 0 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Ah, classic a Total Warhammer move.

These are very cool.

That is gorgeous. I love it.

Notably most of the anti-play rules in 5e are inherited from earlier editions where they weren't.
Goodberry solves hunger which enables more dungeon crawling at the cost of 1 spell per day. It becomes anti-play whe dungeon crawling isn't the primary gameplay loop.

I'm cautiously anticipating the reveal of who did do it.

That dichotomy of trying to have their cake and eat it too creates the desire for incap as a quick fix.

If it just prevented crit fails it'd be crude but inoffensive, that it actively makes crit successes even more likely goes too far IMO.

As a GM, it feels uncomfortable. Like LR in 5e.
