Bad DMs are universal, but bad D&D DMs are particularly lousy to me.

All this makes me even happier that I’m dumping this D&D danger hair hambeast for the leaner, nicer and more stable Mythras.

Makes me all the more smug that D&D was never my go to....

Conclusion: A person who never met a bad DM made this up for updoots.
It honestly sounds like they heard some old gaming urban legend and adapted it for the internet age.

this, reads like a /tg/ greentext, and we all know how authentic the stuff there is

clown tentacles.
now I'm curious, do they honk too? if so, how? is it a physical audible honk or telepathically induced honking to increase the suffering? if it's the latter case, would woketards getting raped hear a trump speech in their head instead?

so many questions!

In Darrick's case, he never plotted any of them out because he's an eternally baked coomer who doesn't plot shit out. It's one of several reasons why I made his thread.

In Grim Jim's case? Fuck if I know, probably it'd honk in morse code your safeword given he wrote a Gor TTRPG unironically.

Could be a Dwarf Fortress reference.
 
Saw this in the pictures thread.

For those of you who want to run Ravenloft, this is fucking Ravenloft.

looks beautiful.

Until you look a little closer.

There is an Aliens RPG book actually; made by the fellas who made Phoenix command. It's table-heavy like fuck
I ran this game last weekend and it was a great. I kept the game kind of casual because all the players were new and I didn't want to scare them off during the first session. Plus I haven't GMed in like a decade.

The marine PC played it like a video game and had three different situations where he should have died but like I said I didn't want to scare anyone off on session one. The next is a medic completely paralyzed by inaction when she has to make a decision. Last is a marshal who had never seen any of the movies and wanted to explore the vents with the results you would expect. They had great time despite me being a subpar GM but they have no frame of reference what good GMing looks like.

I really enjoyed the d6 system and can definitely see this being my go to ttrpg. Some information in the book can be a pain the ass to find on the fly but other than that can't recommend this game book enough.
 
I wanna play more and but I don’t like the online stuff and I can’t properly interact with people that do play dnd. I have so many campaign ideas that I want to use but I can’t.

I was in this boat too, but decided to join a couple of random online groups with positive results. There's all sorts of weirdos out there of course and you might have to bail on the first group or two, but I was honestly surprised that I managed to find a few groups of relaxed people who actually just wanted to play the game. All I did was join a bunch of random RPG groups on social media that weren't cancerously woke and looked for people trying to pad out their group with more players. Just put yourself out there, fuck it. It's the internet you can always ghost the group if it's shit.

I have a lot of minis my dad gave me so that’s why I like irl dnd better. However I was a spaz in high school which caused me to push some friends away, it was also a nigger majority school so not really a lot of dnd types.

I’m on the same boat as you, minus the minis and the blacks (it was mostly whites and asians). Of my irl friend group, three moved away (and one of those trooned out), leaving me with 2 guys from high school. I don’t really like online groups as much, only because you miss alot through non-visual communication.

Well I gotta find one way to do my Arnold “Angh” as my Conan based barbarian.
 
Loving all the cyberpunk talk and recommendations.

It's more that modern transplants don't understand that a world has a different set of morals than real life and can't actually roleplay for shit in my experience.
I don't know about that. My experience has been all over the place. eg. The critical roll fans I've played with have been perfectly fine. I find most people regardless of age or experience like playing good characters. I've not ran into a chaotic neutral murder hobo or a lawful good prick. That could be because I set my expectations for the party up front. Though my criminal campaign ended up more Robin Hood than mafia hit men.

It's kind of sad that even though cyberpunk settings seem like they'd be the realm of edgelords and fedora tippers, there's an inordinate number of troons and dangerhairs that are interested because of the magic plastic surgery and anarchist bent who just completely miss the actual themes of cyberpunk universes. Hence, you get a bunch of cuck GMs who sanitize the fuck out of the setting and it ruins the whole thing.
I talked about this in another thread, but troons love cyperpunk (the genre) for the reasons you describe, yet are hostile to the actual games like CP2077 and Shadowrun because it clashes with their utopian "Be gay, do crime, bash fash!" mindset.

Anyone who plays Shadowrun and doesn't know about the Chicago Containment Zone is someone I probably wouldn't play with.
I don't. I ignored Shadowrun because I didn't like the magic. I've been struggling for content for a cyberpunk campaign I want to run, and it sounds like Shadowrun has the good stuff. Only one I know of is Renraku Arcology, and that I only know from the Spoony episode.
