This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Let's throw Wonderfilled games to the red zone.
They've been working on Giantlands - supposedly a continuation of traditional D&D headed by Earnie Gygax.
But recently they've gone really woke on twitter, screeching about bigotry, then blocking people who disagree, and deleting their terrible takes.
Unfortunately for them, I have a screenshot button, attached is their most recent deleted tweet, to which I simply responded "never a good idea to antagonize your fanbase" and they blocked me over it.

If you're the kind of person that the above statement offends, you can fuck off. If you're the kind of person that pals around with wannabe culture vulture white supremacists like RPG Pundit, wannabe satanist christian conservative transphobes like Venger Satanis, rape apologists like GrimJim, or are one of the libertarian dweebs that do free PR for the above, you can also fuck off.

Yeah what do you expect from people obsessed with labels, badges, and identities? You expect rationality?
The worms crawl in and the worms crawl out
The ones that crawl in are lean and thin
The ones that crawl out are fat and stout
Your eyes fall in and your teeth fall out
Your brains come tumbling down your snout
Be merry my friends

Dayum Pundit. I don't think there's enough burn ointment in the entire world that they could put on that. Well done. I'd never heard of the losers before this either.

But maybe that was their plan, to shite on you three and Dragonlance to boot. LOL Then they could get their 15 min. of fame.

Sorry, I'm a bit confused. Is this company green or red? Who are they referring to when discussing 'whatever'ists, the SJWs???

Considering the line: "homophobic, transphobic, capitalist" I'll presume they're SJWs.

Talk about being nihilistic why assume the future is worse if not even more.

They deserve to get on the red list just for being depressing AF.

Huh. That name vaguely rings a bell from maybe twenty years ago. Did they do anything else?

Didn't cyberpunk hinge on the world getting worse in almost every way (unless you were one of the very few mega-rich fuckers)?

This seems to be a new edition of their original game Starchildren, which came out back in 2002.

According to the ashcan version of Velvet Generation, which came out around 2018 I think:

Quote
We’ve wanted to do a new version for a long time, but everything came to a head in 2016. In early 2016, the losses of David Bowie, Prince, Lemmy and other rock demigods who inspired the Starchildren made this a good idea. In late 2016, seeing the United States and other governments take a disgusting right turn into outright fascism made it necessary.
