I never said it wasn’t derogatory, and yes actually, acknowledging that different ways to play the game are fine does absolutely make it okay. “Tell me ahead of time and I won’t play at your table”
“You won’t catch me doing that” ya bro they want to play the game the way they have fun and not force themselves to play it a way they don’t enjoy for the benefit of others. And instead of letting that be, you have to whine and okay the victim.
Id say that we don’t know those things now because we live in modern technological times where you don’t have to know those things to survive. If this was the middle ages and you were an adventuring type who could hold their own out in the wilds, you would almost definitely know all of those things.
The person you’re replying too explicitly said that not playing the game the way they do is fine, yet you’re here telling them that they’re playing it wrong and should play something else. That is psycho shit. Just don’t play with each other, which by the way was the other person’s point all along. They didn’t once yuck the yums of people who play differently.
I mean sure, but I don’t think it’s like, bad to be included either. Still serves to make them fucked up imo
As in, Im reading it as the mother knows that’s what is happening and derives intense pleasure from it that it becomes physical elation
Nothing wrong with making a fictional race as disturbing as possible
I mean, yeah absolutely and I agree. I didn’t say you were being nice, but the double standard where they think they get to tell people who they accuse of metagaming (whether they are or aren’t) that they’re playing it wrong and to do something else when they would go absolutely insane if it was the other way around has always triggered me immediately. Just let people play the game they wanna play it
