>You and your friends gain telepathy.
Could you still enjoy playing traditional games with each other?
I probably could, but they couldn't.

Sweet, now we don't have to worry about disturbing other people while gaming. And it's a lot easier to send secret messages laced with profanity.
I think it actually might improve our ability to game
As in, everyone is constantly reading eachother's thoughts at all times?
Yeah probably, most of us are brutally honest. It might make secret character motivations and GM planning and the like kind of lame though.

"Hey guys, wanna hear the most annoying sound in the world?"
>>47698491
What friends?
>>47698491
But is it that shitty "always on and uncontrollable" telepathy or the cool "Like talking but in the head and you can choose what you listen to" kind of telepathy? Because if the former, I'd rather not. Like, shit man, you know reading someone's mind would give you a headache with all the signals firing off? Stream-of-consciousness books are already confusing enough. On the other hand, cool streamlined telepathy would be nice.
As in we can read each others thoughts? But I'm always thinking lewd things, so that would be bad.

This. I don't want anyone knowing that I didn't actually randomly roll a Dragonborn Centaur and that it's actually my fetish.

>Play with an obviously closested homosexual who is also /pol/ incarnate
Imagine that every time there's a silence, you can hear, in your mind's ear, the sound of recorded hitler speeches just barely covering up The Village People's YMCA. That's all I can imagine the inside of this guy's head to be.
I want out.
It would be the same shit flinging as before except we are quieter now.

Is that a drakkoth, or an actual centaur with a draconic template?
>>47698962
draconic template centaur

Oh god no. I've built up a reputation, among my group, as being the one that's not a kind of skeevy, porn-drawing magical realmer like the rest of them, and can be trusted to bring competent, effective characters to the game to move things forward.
Telepathy would mean that they would learn my dark secret. That I'm just a lot better at hiding it than they are.
>>47698491
YES
>>47698491
So I gain telepathy.
Honestly that might improve my chances to get into a game.
I definitely could but my friend probably couldn't. I've made several therapists and psychologists straight up refer me to their colleagues and simply not pass on the notes so they don't know whats coming. Thats assuming its that shitty always on telepathy which i honestly wouldn't even notice, the change in mental noise density would be a drop in the bucket.

This guy gets how to live
i wouldnt have time to play RPGs if i gained telepathy, because i'd be too busy using it selfishly for excessive wealth and power
