SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
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.

When PC-ness of a setting runs mad...

Quote from: boulet;354308It's not that it's terrible. It's just that there is a potential bait and switch here.

Do you really think that when most gamers pick up a book such as this one, they care about whether it gets the little details right as opposed to the broad strokes?

But, as we've seen, it did get them right, at least in terms of the issue the OP raised.

Quote from: Simlasa;354325So of course you'd be fine if that priest (the male one) was wearing pink tights, a tutu, fairy wings and holding a sparkly wand... because that's fantasy too. (he'd still have the collar so you could tell he was a man of the cloth) Howsabout if they were both riding magical ponies?

Shrug. If the game's setting included such things, then whatever. I don't expect games to be completely accurate. I'm a roleplayer, not a Civil War re-enactor; I'm not about the minutiae.
