I don't think I ever had orcs surrender once. They'd basically be killed by their own side for it. Also they're ontologically evil. Not even a paladin in any of my campaigns would have any problem killing an orc.

Can't have ontological or objective evil any more, it's problematic and a bunch of other buzz words.

I am fully convinced the only people on YouTube making good review and news content on tabletop games and especially anything related to Dungeons and Dragons are a handful of baby boomers that played DND in the 70s to early 80s. Joe from Seattle called fans toxic for saying the VGAs were rigged. The award show openly snubbed Hogwarts' legacy for woke points. Hogwarts legacy selling close to Skyrim levels. William SRD review of the werewolf The Apocalypse video game had a middle section where rants why is so few echo terrorists in real life when climate change is so bad. Yes. is a DND youtuber openly advocating for terrorism and his channel is still up. That's YouTube for you.

I tend to prefer relative evil for races in my settings personally, but there are objectively evil people and cultures can tilt that way even then. Also ontological evil is a straight up thing due to deities and shit.
But that's me.
But that's me.
Industry awards shows are just self-sucking wanks anyway, so trying to defend the autofellatio is just delusional.
It's the right kind of violence incitement.

I take the stance: If a racial description is "Orcs are retarded and evil" that doesn't mean EVERY Orc is retarded or evil. Just that if you encounter an orc, you can expect them to be retarded and evil.

If anything it cements my suspicions about Larian fully going AAA, and in the shitty Battlefield 5 "laughing at your shit fans cuz muh ESG score high" kind of way.
Guess it was a given that they'll become hitler if their aspirations is to become hitler.
Speaking of, apparently pathbuilder finally updated their shit to pf2 remaster rules. Meteor Swarm:Re looks fucking awesome. But it's shit that they nerfed ray of frost's range by half - though it is nice that cantrips aren't almost all attack rolls now. Gonna miss sniping as a caster with flurry of blows alongside it.
Also now that they changed the energy traits from negative to void it finally makes sense why pharasma is so pissed at people using the void to make life. Since that shit is eldritch levels of fucked up.

PF2e's inventor is a class I want to try, after reading about their main feature (innovation) and the phantograph gauntlets from that same book I think both would fit perfectly for a character inspired by Fullmetal alchemist, think of an inventor who lost an arm and added all sorts of gadgets to his prosthetic automail.
In general am glad pathfinder has guns and contraptions that, in my opinion, fit a fantasy setting. I was getting sick of perusing janky overcomplicated gun homebrews for 5e whenever i had the urge to incorporate guns into my games.
Gotta say, as someone who only played BG3 and a bit of NWN1, those old dnd games look neat, I tended to dismiss anything prior to BG1 as shovelware/shitty games.

Wish that guy wouldn't ramble about such topics, because he can't get his point across in a timely manner nor make it clear.

My general view of them was they were literally created to be evil and they universally adhered to form, just throwaway bad guys like a slightly less mindless version of skellies. Uruk-Hai were somewhat smarter and could at least be reasoned with but were just as unlikely to surrender and just as untrustworthy. So you could make a deal with them. You'd probably regret it though.

He not bad when he just sticks to talking about video games or DND settings. He gets retarded when Hasbro politics comes up.
You know what’s sad? I guarantee Joe from Seattle defending the VGAs for free. Most YouTuber defending corporate America are doing for free in the name of rainbow capitalism.

The only way an Orc could be not retarded and/or evil is if he got massive head trauma at some point in his life.

Well, not D&D in the slightest but that explains Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka. Dude lost half his brains to a bolt round and wound up becoming the most feared Ork in the galaxy since the time of The Beast of Ullanor by virtue of not just strength and ferocity but his rather un-Orklike ability to think of things like "taktitz".

Seeing as BG3 is so popular, I wonder if wotc will start to get their grubby mitts more involved in their future games, especially since they're pushing so hard to digitalize things. BG3 was predictably woke, but not as much as I was expecting it to be. You can still kill whoever you like and fuck around, unlike say Starfield. Larian will eventually go the way of all AAA studios though. It's only a matter of time.

Has anyone heard about what's going on with the Cyberpunk TTRPG? Supposed to be a few new books coming out over the next year or so.

Is there a website, other than 1d4chan and the /tg/ archive, with archives of /tg/ stories/greentexts? Used to have a few of them saved but lost them after formatting my pc

What bothers me is that most are imcomplete. I remember a bunch of homebrew stuff from a site called Middle Finger of Vecna being pretty good. Although the player changed his mind and went with something else so I never got it to the table.
If you're wondering, he ended up rolling a sorcerer with a spell gun straight out of Outlaw Star. I personally think warlock or wizard would've worked better, but he was happy with it.
That site had a bunch of tech related subclasses too. Again, never got them to the table. They seemed neat though.
Keep backups. A single external hard drive should be fairly cheap, and a USB flash drive cheaper than that. Just copy the important stuff over once every one or two months.

AGP is a classic. Hilariously given that acronym, there's an audio rendition of it on JewTube that I found out after listening to it was done by a tranny. He wasn't even trying to sound feminine.

Gentlexirs: gimme some advice on how to make a vaguely min-maxed Cleric feel a bit more scared/threatened without coming across as Rocks Fall On Your Head-tier lazy DM punishment. I'm running some Ravenloft and been enjoying that almost every character is squishy and feeling the heat but the one dude just has absurd AC and spell buffs going that at times I feel like is actively hurting his enjoyment of the game because most shit cannot hit him and he's doing so much damage that other PCs feel like side-kicks. The flip side is that if I crank shit up, it can feel too excessive on the rest of the party.
In the past I've tossed saving-throw based attacks/spells at people in similar situations with mixed results and I have seen Banshees used quite effectively but I am just seeking some general tips from veteran DMs who can advise as to how to put the fear of the Morninglord back into his heart instead of power-gaming/sleep-walking through every combat encounter. It doesn't have to even by a pure by-the-book solution either, more than happy to homebrew or mix-match as well.

In the setting I'm running, orcs were created in techno-magic vats by a mad wizard. They're beings of pure chaotic energy who get paroxysms of joy from destroying anything that strikes them as orderly. Now, your orcs don't have to be my orcs, and that's fine. Problem is the woke crowd says I'm not allowed to have a setting where orcs are animated techno-magic syrup whose brains are wired to like smashing things up the way humans are wired to like sex, because it somehow traumatizes black people or whatever for me to play that game with my friends. The castle of imagination doesn't need a hall monitor.
