Humor, jokes, memes about TTRPGs
I had a bit like this once, though not quite to this level. I had a world where Gnomes lived in caravan groups like Romani, and there was a lot of racism against them. I thought my players would sympathize, but what actually happened was "let's not rock the boat".
In this video, doesn't Taliesin Jaffe misses the table, and they laugh at him?
op adding subliminal layers to the meme. ๐
In D&D, they're just objectively right. Older editions had certain races as being inherently evil. Even now, there's differences in intelligence between races.
Even now, there's differences in intelligence between races.
They got rid of that in 5.5e. They also made the orcs Mexican for some reason
They still have goblin warriors with higher intelligence than kobold warriors. And silver dragons are significantly smarter than white dragons. Did they get rid of the thing where you can tell if a dragon is evil based on the shininess of their skin? Or is it just not on the statblock anymore?
And I imagine very few people play games where demons and devils aren't generally evil.
"The Fantasy KKK is right about everything because there's an inherent intelligence difference in the default stat blocks"
See meme above
I don't see a problem to be honest, although only if the players are experts in really be in character
KKK is bad, wrong, ... Playing them should be discussed... I would have an issue with someone who finds impersonating a KKK member fun.
We should paste here the intro of Eat the Reich about nazi NPCs and how to deal with that.
You are right, there is however a difference when one impersonates KKK for fun, and a person who uses that as a character flaw to give the character some growth in the future.
There is also of course the thing where people play as a character in a setting where everyone is essentially a nazi, i.e. wh40k
I tend to believe that it is okay to play such characters, it is okay for a player to play a character who screams about purging the unclean, the heretic and the xenos.
And if it is just a usual setting it is okay for a character that is deceived to believe that this pseudo KKK is good. As long as it is made clear ooc that they are not even remotely good
