I’ve been curious about trying XV for a while, but your comments could’ve been written by me, and now I know I need to try XV. Thank you!

(Special shout-out to that dude who defended XIII by saying the sequel makes it worth it. I’m still mad over that argument. If I hated the first game, why should I pay money for a chance to like it’s sequel?)

That line is the Trope Namer for, That Makes Me Feel Angry!

“Attack of the Clothes” had an ending that I really appreciated.

Why did I read this like patch notes on a game?

I want to point out to anyone afraid of saying they love candy corn-

You fall under the Black Jellybean/Black Licorice rule. Every single person who hates candy corn will pretend there’s something wrong with you, but we all need one of you in our lives to take the candy corn/black jellybeans/black licorice. We may pretend to mock you, but without you, we either have to eat that garbage ourselves, or feel really guilty throwing it away.

Just remember, mockery over these things comes in the same form as mocking a beloved sibling. You might think we’re picking on you, and we are, but we love you.

I dunno if you could say that shareholders incentivized the sexual misconduct.

Thank you.

I’ve been doing TTRPGs since middle school and when Critical Role hit I was so frustrated with everyone trying to make games something you could sell! I don’t want a curated experience. I want the kind of drama you can only get when the dice are impersonal and the players are just trying to survive!

I’m so glad you wrote all of that, and so much better than I could have. Men have no idea of the ways in which breasts need support, or how generally the better it looks, the less comfortable it is.

I just want to say that I’m always grateful to be included.

gaming guides

I would like to remind the assorted that the official final fantasy 9 guidebook left out massive chunks of useful information to encourage you to go online to their website.

It was a dark time.

Oh, no, I have a prescription for ADHD medication. I’ve just always been curious about whether I’d have that experience.

I haven’t done it by now and I’m pushing 40. Don’t you worry about me.

I have pretty crippling ADHD and I always wanted to try cocaine because of all the stories of ADHD folks trying it and feeling calm and normal.

Just curious to see if I have the same experience.

Oh, that’s just Khoshekh.

My Dad died almost 20 years ago and I went NC with my abusive mother at about the same time. I never knew my grandparents.

I wanted to add my data to the set, even if it doesn’t help much.

Man.

Can’t wait to ponder that orb.

I saw all this fuss yesterday and checked on my laptop and sure enough, mine was unchecked.

I have a friend who I game with who has been known to occasionally dabble in head-assery, and when we were all talking about removing alignment restrictions on race this was his take. “These are fantasy races!” “You’re just being too sensitive!”

I finally prevailed by pointing out that it’s just bad writing. If you want to tell me your villain is a monster, have them do something objectively evil like laugh and poison the drinking water of the town of Doma. Don’t just say, “he looks like the eeeeevil race”!

I’m glad you said this.

I’m approaching 40. I’ve played TTRPGs since middle school. I’m a woman.

I’ve experienced this misogyny. A lot over my lifetime. When I hear angry men bitching about people just discussing this, what I see is men who would prefer we not acknowledge that it’s bad.

And I find myself wondering if that’s because they don’t want to be confronted either with how this wasn’t acceptable when they were a part of the problem… or if it’s because they don’t want to hear that their thinking is still part of the problem.

This is how I accidentally named one guy “ThisGuy” and the other, “Thatguy.”

On the plus side, Jim Bob the bridge builder is a long term friend I keep looking up when we visit town.
