Is the "Geek is Chic" wave over in the RPG community

>>50277145
god i fucking hope it is, because most of the time, they are the lol look im a nerd, girls

>>50277145
It's pretty pathetic if your self-esteem is tied to how "underground" you perceive your hobby to be.

>>50277145
Haven't run into the type for months now. I'd say it's on its deathbed.

>>50277145
>68% of geek dads watch lolicon porn in secret when their kids are at summer camp

>>50277389

Wow, only 68%?

>>50277145
I don't think it even penetrated into the hobby unless your knowledge of it is exclusively college campus based. PnP role playing is pretty much group based so unless you're nerd chic yourself you'd be hard pressed to meet anyone like that. In my experience the TCG and Board game crowds have remained largely unchanged, their whiny minorities just got more noticble thanks to social media

>>50277389
>and 32% watch it with their kids!

>>50277145
The SJWs are too busy literally shaking over Trump to notice us right noe. Hopefully he's at least a little bit Hitlery so that trend continues.

>>50277145
Gee why won't all these blasted "normies" stop enjoying MY hobby! How can I be a posturing elitist then?

>>50277145
>kids at heart
>positive trait

Given how often manchild gets thrown around as an insult it is rather surprising that people would view being in touch with their inner child as a good thing. But I guess that it is one of those things where whether or whether not it is a good thing depends on how popular you're with other people.

>>50277441
>Hopefully he's at least a little bit Hitlery
No, Hitlery lost the election, remember?

>>50277527
>how popular you're with other people.
Exactly.

>If popular (and rich): "He's such a creative free spirit!"
>If unpopular (and not rich): "What an immature man-child!"

>>50277349
My super self esteem doesn't care about how popular is my hobby, my social anxiety is

>>50277546

You misspelled "attractive".

>>50277784

>"Geek is Chic"
If your social persona is defined by a single thing (such as your "niche hobby"), then you are a sad, sad excuse for a human being.
Constantly claiming "I'm a gamer" isn't any better than claiming "I'm a sex addict", because in both cases you let your hobby define your social interactions.

Yeah it was totally going to be an all-out nuclear frenzy that would scour the planet's surface clean of life.

It wasn't just going to be two years of impotent sanctions.

>>50277942
It's not about defining myself by my hobby. It's about other people barging into things that I enjoy and demanding that they change. And then they do because people whine really loud, especially the friends of the people who barged in. The ones that would never actually buy the product they're complaining about, even after it gets changed.

At least that's my gripe with it.

As a "geek" I can confidently say I am not confident in being a dad.

Those are just bad manners, and you are free to ignore those people, though.
>The ones that would never actually buy the product they're complaining about, even after it gets changed.
And then the product changes back or dies, because the old target audience doesn't buy it anymore, while the new target audience doesn't buy it anyway.
I fail to see the problem.

>>50279079
>a bit of social anxiety doesn't make you a robot if you fight against it
Pretty much.

Every single day of my life is a struggle against my social ineptitude.
And judging by the end results, I'm definitely winning, if only due to my stubborness and refusal to admit defeat.

OK

>>50279426
>>your gaming group refuses to meet for their weekly session because D&D is "dead"

There are a surprising amount of people out there who only want to play the latest-greatest thing and disdain "old & busted" shit. Teenagers especially are prone to this.

Of course you can choose to avoid these people, but if they form a large or majority group in your area, you may not be able to find a group to play [some old RPG] with.

>>50279393

Can we specify Ancient Greek chic specifically? I'm not sure if I want crippling debt and hummus to be chic.

>>50277145
It's probably going to stay for a while, and it makes me sad. Just the other day on anews site that was talking about DnD's 5e new book of monsters and showing some beholders, a comment from some guy saying that creatures like that were why he stopped playing dnd, he preferred when things were better on the games he played when he was younger. When someone said Beholders were a classic creature he replied that it must be hidden in the end of the book, because when he played his group was all about going to the other side slaying demogorgons.

It just makes me sad now and they will probably keep sprouting now and the. Whenever some new series come out that as much as references anything /tg/ related.

>>50277145
It's not over, but it will pass. Hipsters will move on to something new, or entirely disappear. Remember: the hipsters of today are the emos of yesteryear. They'll find some other way to be non-confomist. Who knows, tomorrow they might lead a Christian revival and argue for the reinstitution of the nuclear family because at that point being morally conservative will be the most non-conformist thing you can do those will be dark times.

>>50277389
This is why I don't want to become a father. I fucking love playing video games, shitposting on the internet, watching Chinese cartoons with pretty girls of questionable age who have big boobies and are sluts etc. I can't do that shit with a kid around, I'd have to be a responsible parent and teach them proper morals and all that shit. I can't have my five year old asking me if K-Acceleration really works like that in real life.

And then there's the fact that I'll have to share my house with at least two other people, one of whom underage and at least one of them a woman. Balls to that. Sometimes the idea of being a father is appealing, but the more I think about it the more I realize I'm too autistic for that shit. And then there's all the shit legislation that fucks husbands and fathers harder than a ten dollar whore.

Really, if they don't get us pussy-addicted by the time we're 30, we master our nature. The wizard meme is not a joke.

>>50277145
The community doesn't exist. It is only a group of individuals. Some people might get into it for the wrong reasons, I don't really care if they do.

>>50279287
I don't really care if they die either.

Really, the only thing you should care about is the individuals that form your group. When you form a solid group on individuals with similar tastes and goals, the trends don't affect you. We're currently heavily mod Pathfinder, and play two games of a fan-made Pokemon Tabletop and we couldn't care less.

Not him, but you know many MGTOW become so because of bad experiences with women, right? Some of them are actually divorced men who know from first-hand experience how much courts fuck over men. In fact, what is your statement even supposed to achieve? Are your insults supposed to convince those who disagree with you? Or are you putting up a strawmen to discredit an entirely rational reaction because it makes you insecure about what society told you about your role as a man?

>>50280972

Actually him. Truth is, I don't care anymore.

My savings account looks great, I'm planning to buy myself a few hundred bucks of silver in case we face hyper-inflation, I work 25 hours a week, I live well, I've got two gaming groups and great friends.

I am not a slave to my dick anymore, most of those I know who are into relationships were either dumped or had the pin pulled off that fat grenade, including an ex of mine who had a miscarriage while we were together.

So yeah, every bullet missed me so far, doesn't mean it's not a good idea to dodge.

>>50281099
Addendum: Turd Flinging Monkey is right about the "Zen of Zero fucks given". Not giving a fuck and making the most of your situation is AMAZING on one's psyche.

I'm just sad it took me to reach the age of 29 to discover this.

>>50281007
Mainly I think it's funny that people can't just be at ease with being social rejects, and feel the need to go full Tumblr and make up a special-snowflake acronym. If MGTOWs were really comfortable being kissless virgins, they could be confident in themselves without the need to create a label as a shield.

>>50281194

Pretty sure he wasn't, he went on saying like in the old times all your group needed was go around slaying demogorgons and not those weird floating eyeballs. I truly believe he was trying to pass himself as an old school DnD player with all his knowledge being what he saw on stranger things.

You clearly don't understand the movement. Try spelling it out: going your own way implies, at its very foundation, going against the grain.

>If MGTOWs were really comfortable being kissless virgins
You didn't read my last post, did you? Some MGTOW still have no strings attached sex. How about you read up on it before criticizing it: unlike feminism, the entire movement is decentralized and many men fill it in according to their own needs and wants. The only common denominator is abandoning the societal male role of provider.

I think a number of them actually allow boys to sleep overnight

> Pizzey said that militant feminists – with the collusion of Labour's leading women – hijacked her cause and used it to try to demonise all men, not only in Britain, but internationally.[22] Pizzey said of the newly emerging establishment "I never saw Women's Aid as a movement that was hostile to men, but The National Federation, which quickly formed, made it quite clear that men were the enemy."

Nah, gynocentrism is a problem even in countries WITHOUT feminism. At best it would've delayed it. It's merely an example of how SJWs ruin everything they touch.

We could listen to TradCons / MRM, ruining our lives and chances for happiness in a senseless fight against the inevitable. Heck, if they succeed, I'll even eat my hat and congratulate them (after all, Trump is a major victory in this). But I am not sparring myself from the altar of gynocentrism just to die on the altar of Tradional Conservatism.

Shit's getting that way.
I get more 'alternative' value out of having no tattoos or piercings and leaving my hair in it's natural colour and state than doing any of them.
Everyone has a tattoo. MY MOTHER has a tattoo. As an anti-establishment statement, no less!

What is this, the 1920s? Look at the media, especially tv shows: fathers and husbands are depicted as fucking chumps. Higher standing is given to playboys who have a new honey (sometimes half their age) every other month. There's a reason why James Bond never got married: being a playboy is what makes him cool in the eyes of the modern audience.

>>50279221
The loudest voices are the ones heard, and these people bitch louder than the enthusiasts. Their whingeing eventually alters the product into a state where it is unenjoyable to me. Then something I once loved is corrupted and dies. It's like watching an ex-girlfriend I still had feelings for get cancer and waste away. Yeah sure, I can always play the old material, but any new stuff I have to create whole cloth. When it's dead, I can't buy material to supplement unless someone liked it enough to make 3rd party additions, which are inevitably of lesser quality.

I just want to enjoy the stuff that I like. And I want to keep enjoying it and seeing it grow and get better. If you're okay with stuff you've invested money and time into up and dying, then we've got a pretty unresolvable disconnect in the way we see things.

Literally how? Who sits at your table is literally up to you and the rest of the group, if you are annoyed with someone chances are so is someone else and you should voice your opinion. No one is forcing you to play with new people. If you are worried about the product themselves being ruined by new people, then remember that there are a shit ton of systems out there and you can always just tweak new rules/throw them out completely/use a different edition.

>The guys that will cater to SJW / Trends are not doing it for the right reasons
That's a fairly broad statement, m8.

Yes, there are the EAs and Marvels of the world that shamelessly pander for cash, but don't forget that some people can be fooled by a loud minority, might believe they're doing the right thing and end up going too far, get subjected to virtue signalling lynch mobs and get pressured by their higher ups, or might get Trojan Horsed and subjected to frog boiling by certain groups claiming to be fans.
Then there's the fact that if a game dies a slow death, or is turned into a toxic mess at the time of death, a replacement may not be forthcoming.
Or the fact that certain things, like friends, might not transfer to a new system, regardless of how similar to what you originally liked it ends up being.

This is why people would prefer to be safe and tell new people to piss off if they are not primarily interested in the hobby they are trying to join, or if they whine about non issues.

I'm afraid I don't see the connection between "heard about D&D the old-fashioned way" and "is a good role-player".

>>50282995
Remain single and you can have all the shoes, purses, outfits, coats and cars for yourself (or actually put the money into savings and have a nice retirement fund or something).

>>50282996
> some people can be fooled by a loud minority
Then they're not doing it for the right reasons. Build it and they will come.

> Then there's the fact that if a game dies a slow death, or is turned into a toxic mess at the time of death, a replacement may not be forthcoming.
Be the replacement. We're having a blast with a 100% free pokémon game.

> Or the fact that certain things, like friends, might not transfer to a new system, regardless of how similar to what you originally liked it ends up being.
Intellectual laziness being removed by itself? I understand if you don't want that to happen, but in my case, it's a positive.

That word, I'm not sure you understand what it really means. Otherwise, correct statement.

>>50283384
>It's a funny thread!
And you need to get out. People like you are the reason the site is on fire. Hell I don't give a shit about mgtow or whatever, it's normalfags like you who flaunt and shitpost that ruin it.

> Ah yes, getting my dick sucked by three cute girls ten years my junior at the same time has left my ego raw and vulnerable to your upset noises.
>hedonistic approach to sex
Just a reminder that this is everything wrong with current humanity.
Even if we disregard pregnancy, heritage and all that stuff about bloodlines and children, and look at it from a purely emotional point of view, sex is still an instrument of bonding between people, and not a hedonistic activity that exists solely for pleasure.

>>50283418
Nah, let him speak. The reason Free Speech is so important is that he can show everyone how dumb his arguments really are.

>>50283450
This is the reason why we should ACCELERATE economical collapse. No better way to get rid of the degenerates' than cutting welfare and let the offsprings and hedonistic single mothers fend for themselves.

> You guys should marry because orgies!
Suuuuure. Enjoy those Nurgle/Slaanesh hybrids.

>>50283491
>This is the reason why we should ACCELERATE economical collapse
Are you fucking retarded? No I'm legit asking this, because why the fuck would you want the economy to collapse?

>>50283491
I disagree, the best way to eliminate degeneracy I'd with technology, we need a stable economy until such time as ai/genetically engineered ubermensch can take over and cleanse the world.

>>50283533
> Why the fuck would you want the economy to collapse?
Because it is the only way to defeat the welfare state in a gynocentrist society. The welfare state subsidizes bad decisions (like getting impregnated from a one-night-stand) which encourages the degenerate behavior and genes.

>>50283538
Not even the artificial womb will stop the degenerate from financing their offsprings with your tax money. Unless you're talking about another breakthrough?

>>50282517
>resorts to insults without actually coming up with a single defense for such an anachronistic holdover tradition as marriage
Why am I not supprised.

>>50283533
An alternative answer would be:
Because people are literally fucking retards.

>>50283594
>Because it is the only way to defeat the welfare state in a gynocentrist society
Or maybe, just fucking maybe, get rid of birth control?
>>50283602
Oh, so we shouldn't have laws in general? I mean it's such anachronistic belief that laws should exist.

>>50277945
Made me chuckle. Here's you're (You)

>>50283594
Human degeneracy will end with humans. One way or another science will create a final solution to the human problem and stop degeneracy once and for all.

>>50283661
Still not seeing a single argument here, just false equivelence.

>>50283418
>And you need to get out. People like you are the reason the site is on fire.
I've been here since February of 2007. Maybe you're the one who doesn't belong on the board.

>>50283697
This isn't an argument.
>>50283707
And all you do is support the fall of the site.

>>50283661
> Or maybe, just fucking maybe, get rid of birth control?
1) Good luck with that. Not counting the manginas that will support them, women are 51% of the voter base.
2) As long as they are subsidized for them, they can keep pushing out children.

Look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBqjZ0KZCa0

>>50283720
Pointing that an answer is not an argument is making the argument that you can't make an argument.

>>50277145
Is this actually a thing?
Coming from someone who has one foot in the normie side of things, I can confidently say that 95% of people don't know a single TTRPG besides D&D. And that's been relatively normie pretty much constantly.

>>50283731
>women are 51% of the voter base.
And a good portion of them would be in favor of it.
So that's what, 45% of it.
>As long as they are subsidized for them, they can keep pushing out children.
Then cut that shit out too.
>>50283745
No. It isn't an argument and you're an autistic redditor who needs to go back.

>>50283720
>And all you do is support the fall of the site.
That's not true, I also make out with lots of cute girls.

>>50283533
>why the fuck would you want the economy to collapse
Because some people believe you need to destroy before you can rebuild.

>>50283776
> Your second answer is "Get rid of the welfare state".
I've got great news for you: Unless Trump is a Godsent, you will automatically succeed on the later. Socio-Economic is Western Civilization's current destination!
> No. It isn't an argument and you're an autistic redditor who needs to go back.
Also, yes it is. The argument was "Any statement that requires no effort to back-up requires no effort to dismiss".

Also "autistic" doesn't mean "wrong", its often the opposite, so your insult have no grounds.

>>50283859
>you will automatically succeed on the later
Okay then.
>Also, yes it is.
But it's not.
>Also "autistic" doesn't mean "wrong",
No, it mean's you're autistic.

>>50283882
> No, it mean's you're autistic.
Meh. To remain perfectly honest, I probably am HFA or something.

> But it's not.
Then would you care to make an argument or would you rather show your quality as a debater with further name-callings?

TIP: You are currently being anonymous and you, yourself, will suffer no ill-effect whatever your decision is. Whatever, any position you may hold may be discredited by your inability to provide said argument.

>>50283731
Getting rid of birth control would be a mistake anyways, instead we should put some sort of (reversable) sterilization drug in the water supply. It won't stop degeneracy, but at least it will stop one consistence of it.

>>50283965
>Then would you care to make an argument
No, we're having a discussion. Sorry you need to get off to your wack ass fetishes to "arguing" with people on the internet.

>>50283988
You go full Mass Effect. Society collapse will probably happen beforehand with the magic of "you're responsible for your own decisions" to bring intelligence up.

>>50283995
Nigga, you throw shame and insults, this ain't discussion. Besides, I rocked my socks off a good hour and a half ago. I merely produce content I can screencap and fap to later.

>>50281650
unrelated, but that picture of John could make some pretty fantastic reaction images

>>50284167
That's already an edit of an iconic meme, designed to be used as a reaction image. That's like saying ketchup could be used as a good condiment.

>>50284125
Three questions:

1) What is the life expectancy for divorced men?
2) With the known divorce rates, what is the adjusted life expectancy of guys that choose to marry once or more?
3) What percentage of marriage are barely held in place because the man leaving would make it destitute?

> Go to Hell, Tom.
> Already there!

>>50284226
Wait, ketchup isn't just a condensed type of tomato soup? What the fuck, why did no one tell me this earlier?

>>50284226
No, I mean just the photo of John's head that's been posted into the image. I'm a newfag, but not THAT much of a newfag.

>>50284144
Pretty good. The PDFs didn't magically delete themselves when the company folded, and no skeletons have broken into my house and forced me to be more inclusive.

Yet.

that's all I want

can people stop being angry , pls I swear to god

>>50284365
Yeah, it sucks that we're forbidden from making our own content and wholly reliant on being spoon-fed approved official content.

And aren't new players the very thing you're scared of?

>>50284488
My anger is the only thing that sustains me at this point, if I stop being angry I really will have nothing left.

>>50284579

and at this point its ruining my gaming experiences.

I know you are probably being sarcastic but everyone at the local gaming groups and stores have just turned into these cynical, sarcastic, angry people over the last year and a half.

It's gossipy and catty and its dragging me down. I barely game anymore, I just grab the stuff I want to paint at the store and head home.

I wish people in the hobby would take the chips off their shoulders. Who cares if you were picked on at some point in your life? Who cares if it's popular now?

>>50277145

I think that anon didn't even bother reading the post or the comic and just saw that it was Assigned Male (which is legitimately SJW bullshit, although this particular comic that was shopped was actually self-aware and a little funny, probably the only Assigned Male for which that can be said) and didn't realize that it was edited
