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.

Quote from: Aglondir;1103293I wonder if this might be the point that SJWs turn on him. The setting for Wolves is way off from Seattle Renn Faire. It will be interesting to see if they are content to live and let live, or if it will trigger a struggle session. There was already an attempt a few years back on TBP to accuse Crawford of racism (or insensitivity) towards Polynesian cultures for Red Tide. Thankfully it was shot down quickly. But that was before the "D&D is Colonialist" nonsense.
I doubt it. Kevin is a sane progressive. They like to eat their own over there but Kevin is very private, writes well, and makes decent arguments.

"You people probably need more help understanding the Christian perspective than the opposite." Both holds his ground and supports their egos.

That a very elegant aikido throw of a riposte, for sure.

Latest news on TBP is that a few posters are not going to back the WOG Kickstarter because... they are boycotting Kickstarter!

He'll still surpass his funding goals, and for a small loss in backing he won't have to worry about those few demanding some random SJW demands out of left field. This is fine.

I imagine that very few of these "boycott-ers" would have actually spent money anyways.

Eh, I own most things Kevin's written and was thinking of going in for the nice binding of Wolves - just mentioning the book prompted a fun argument with one of my sons last week about Kevin's assertion that England was fully Christianized (T. was thinking about the Danelaw, but Kevin's writing pre-Viking in 710, right?), 4 of the 81 projects I've backed on Kickstarter were Sine Nomine projects, now that we're back in England the history is more relevant even if I personally am more curious about bronze age Mesopotamia/Cyprus and renaissance Italy - but yeah, with the Kickstarter antiunion activities I was having second thoughts.

Does DTRPG has a union?


danskmacabre

Backed.  I probably won't run it, but I love reading the material.
Well, I might run it eventually, heh.

1. Some of you culture warriors are so committed to the bit you'll throw out any nuance or common sense in fear it's 'giving in' to the other side.

2. I'm a married homeowner with a career and a child. I won life. You can't insult me.

3. I work in a Prison, your tough guy act is boring.

I'll be waiting for it to come out on DTRPG.

At the rate this KS is going, it'll be funded within 24 hours.

I backed the level where you get the PDF and can order the book on DTRPG at cost.
That's the $35 USD level.
Perfect for me, as I'm backing from Australia and I can read the PDF as it progresses anyway.

Brad

Backed at $35, will probably do the $60 level before it's over.

So, after browsing the beta PDF, like why would I EVER give another penny to fucking WotC, Paizo, Green Ronin, whatever? This is a real roleplaying game, it's not some exercise in revisionist history.
It takes considerable knowledge just to realize the extent of your own ignorance.
