What You Love About RPGs Will Survive SJWs
RPGPundit:
I can't say how long it will take, but eventually, absolutely everything that SJWs have done to RPGs and every other geek pop culture will be erased.
PsyXypher:
The white pill people need right now. Stuff like this is why I joined this site.
Hi, by the way. ;D
Shawn Driscoll:
I see SJWs not doing so well in countries that arrest them.

C.S. Lewis said one time one must never wish gray to be black, because then it's a short distance to wishing white were black and then we have become devils. So, as pessimistic as I am on this issue, I see your analysis as hope-giving.
Theory of Games:
Well yeah, they'll get bored in this corner of the world and move back to politics, as they should. There's nothing here for them. Hell, the OSR appeared as a direct counter to what they were doing to D&D. Look at D&D V and compare it to AD&D. It's like looking in the mirror and seeing a completely different person.
Weird.
Let Hasbro placate to the Twitterati, it won't change how we play D&D because we have BECMI & AD&D to work with. What are they going to do --- go back and change older editions? Nope. They did good with 5: it drew OS gamers and new gamers. Can't discard that.
Bounded Accuracy, no racial limits, discarded alignment, Proficiency, CR levels and all the level bonuses. Hasbro made D&D V so attractive few could avoid it. It seems like such fun to new gamers. Plus, it's woke. "Evil" NPCs get questioned from the designer level, rather than at your table. Orcs can't be evil, right? The white man is to blame!!!
YoJust let Hasbro's D&D die by not buying it. You have people here who argue against WoTC/Hasbro BUT STILL BUY D&D V.
[Insert weak apology for buying a broken game].
If you support Hasbro, you're supporting the Twitterati again, and again and again.
If you run or play D&D V, you're supporting Jeremy Crawford, who hates the OSR & declared Greyhawk NON-CANON in order to make it more woke. Will you change your old D&D/AD&D settings to conform with Hasbro's "Fantasy Identity"?
As Tim Kask, D&D's first employee and editor of Dragon magazine, demonstrated --- FUCK HASBRO.
