Tabletop rpg's will never be as good as they are when I fantasize about them. Everytime I get pumped up and ready to play, I show up to meet people IRL only for them to be neckbeards with bad body odor or shitty roleplayers.

I don't even know why I DM anymore. Oh, right, I'm the only person I know that can competently do it.

I know this feel, this is why I never play serious sessions anymore. They're all comedic on the level of Maid RPG. I just gave the fuck up on people.

Don't lie, you never had a group.

First stop fantasizing, second the world is full of people you dislike, they dislike you too, but you can find good people out there, just do the effort and it will pay off

I don't deserve this group, but I'm glad I have them.

It's getting harder and harder to look him straight in the face, every time when he tells me that he has a great idea for a campaing and it's going to be totally epic. He's just fucking bad about it, and yet he's really into it.
Last time he bought 50$ of meme dice with numbers writen in comic-sans tier font. He insists on all of us using it because "it will help our immersion".

>>54415024

There are good players out there, it just takes patience to rack up a whole group of them.

>>54421945

And of he can't, then he has to take a long hard look at his own quality as a player.
