  • I tried publicly messaging dating proposals (on both knees, as per tradition) to every confirmed woman on Hexbear. Didn’t work. Did the same for every non-confirmed woman or user with feminine-sounding user name. Didn’t work. Tried making a sockpuppet account that I’d use as a “is this man bothering you ma’am” ploy amidst this, which almost worked but as soon as I DMed them from that account they somehow immediately recognized my posting style from the love screeds I’d send them (it’s beyond love bombing, I’m a love terrorist and I’m detonating the vest). Got banned from all the Lemmies, so I can’t do it there. Reddit is all neolibs whomst I won’t even touch.

    wtf



  • Unfortunately, 5E’s class features and feats are very combat focused. Combine this with the fact that many of the abilities that are useful outside of combat in the ttrpg don’t have the flexibility to be used like that in a video game and you reach a point where the only meaningful choices you can make are barely, if ever, related to the mechanical aspects of the character you create. The most mechanics come into play is with ability checks and the occasional revealed dialogue option.

    TLDR: whether you help the deep gnomes rebel against their duregar slavers or help those slavers crack the whip is not meaningly changed if you’re playing a half elf ranger as opposed to a dwarf fighter or whatever.
