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.

What were they thinking? The RPG art cringe thread :D

I saw this the other day and thought it was a joke.  Nope, it's an Evil Hat game. 


But... Evil Hat is the joke.
And they always will be.

Not terrible, but it always makes me cringe.

Looks vaguely familiar. What the hell is going on here? Is the wizard farting laughing gas? 🤪

Perhaps it's just me, but I always thought that Exalted had bad cover art on their books . This one I find especially awful, the whole pose with the strange bow and all just looks awkward and fake.

Here is why this forum tends to be so stupid. Many people here think Joe Biden is "The Left", when he is actually Far Right and every US republican is just an idiot.

If you want awkward and Exalted...


I remember that one. The controversy and gnashing of teeth could be heard to the high heavens, so it was almost worth it 😀

I'd be completely fine with it, if only the artist hadn't been high on mushrooms while drawing the limbs on the guy in the chair.

Sometimes looking suave involves a little pain.

Totally worth it.

Yeah, Savant and Sorcerer is almost the gold standard for 'are you drawing an RPG cover, or are you drawing your fetish art?'.

I'm no prude and I love my cheesecake, but I remember wondering why exactly they'd use THAT image. Y'know, aside from 'sex sells'.
