The Dumbest Thing in New Woke Ravenloft
RPGPundit:
There's a lot stupid about WoTC's Woke Ravenloft setting for Dungeons and Dragons. But here's what I think is dumbest!

I already had my mind made up that this was going to be horrid based upon what I’ve read from the writers’ frequent posts about their “changes”. So this video wasn’t that enlightening. However, it did serve one good purpose. It reminded me that I had yet to purchase Star Adventurer. So I remedied that about two minutes into the video. Settling in to read now.

Excellent! Thank you very much!

I suppose in hindsight it was inevitable -- "safe spaces" and the horror genre are really very hard to render compatible -- but I admit to still being surprised that nobody quite grasped the idea that telling people to make a horror setting not scary is the single biggest self-own I've ever seen.

That would be because you have a functioning brain and you perceive the inherent contradiction.
I'm starting to think I'll need a version of Q's famous line from the Star Trek: TNG episode 'Q Who' when I run something darker than PG.
"If you can't take a little bloody nose, maybe you ought to go back home and crawl under your bed. It's not safe out here. It's wondrous, with treasures to satiate desires both subtle and gross. But it's not for the timid."
