The player is weeaboo trash and his opinion should be disregarded, as well as his right to remain in the game.

This. Beast races shouldn't be adorable comic relief, they should be monstrous creatures.

I'm fine with that, though I would feel a smidge bad fighting small and cuddly gnolls.
>>
>>54281515
Most of my settings are inspired in part by ghibli and miyazaki so I can't complain.
>>
>>54281515
As long as by "small and cute" he means "funny animal", not "small furry".

this guy got the right idea. look at this creature, it manages to strike the best aspects of both things while somewhat staying true to the idea of BEAST humanoid.
>>
>>54281515
Put him on a pre-kick watchlist, because having strong opinions on beast races is one step away from disrupting the game over perceived furries.
>>
>>54281635
>cutsie jap shit
No it doesn't.
Beast races should be as their name implies, bestial. They should embody the traits associated with their species. Dog races are fiercely loyal while being a bit dull witted, cat races are aloof and have honed killer instincts etc.
They shouldn't just be an animal head on a human body but an animal reimagined to stand upright, so no tits.
>>
>>54281672
that's literally a fursona-tier characterization.
oversimplified and cliched

it's like you are afraid of playing around with the trope of the "beast" race
>>
>>54281515
I don't give a shit.

If the DM says that rather than a player, I make a lil' bat with big ears because I want in on that.

That's not "funny animal", that's "kemonomimi". "Funny animal" is like Donald Duck.
>>
>>54281635
That's just loli furbait.

>>54281515

I think it raises questions about what kind of game they want to play in. I'd certainly rather know sooner than later.

Both of these are excellent positions.

I had a gm that had a setting where gnolls had been enslaved by humanity and selectively bred into a race of corgi people that act as house servants.

Nu mou are pretty Totoroesque

They have to spell it "smol". If they can do that without puking, don't game with them.

Actually several japanese RPG include at least one "cutesy" animal race.

I'm fine with that, it's at least better than gnomes.

Personally i like to include the whole gamut - huge, weird and bestial for your usual savage beastmen, kemonomimi people for civilized beastmen, small and cute for magic-focused megalomaniacal empire of small fluffy creatures who had ENOUGH.
>>
>>54281515
I'm fine with beast races, as long as they lean more towards legitimate beast than anthros.

Non-humonoid features and proportions, maybe even quadrupedal.

>>54281515
Player should shut the fuck up and listen to the GM.

I like those that have something like GURPS' "Semi-Upright" disadvantage. They normally walk on all four, but they can also stand up and walk at -40% speed, and use their hands like any human when they're standing.

I don't really care what kind of abominations are there in the world as long as it isn't fetish shit.
>>
>>54284563
Anything can be a fetish
If it exists, someone gets off to it
>>
>>54284587
There is difference between jerking off in your home and bring it to the table. If you can't separate your private life from game you should talk with your psychiatrist about it.
>>
>>54284619
I'm just saying, if there's a guy who gets off to tile patterns, it's impossible to avoid evert fetish
If someone's jerking off at the table, that's a whole nother set of issues

It was bound to happen eventually. If you're gonna be forever GM, law of averages says you're going get drawn into the magical realm eventually.

So they all agreed on this dark, post-apocalyptic world with mutated creatures and packs form just so they can brutally take down other packs and monsters just to get food.

And one player wants all beast races to look cute.

Yeah, that's a no go.
>>
>>54284492
Fuck you, find another GM, I'll keep playing with the others. Good luck.
