>Start game of Magical Burst (it's a magical game game based loosely on Madoka Magica)
>DM introduces a bunch of cool concepts. Tells us that in ancient times humans prayed to goddesses who created these things call "Catalysts" that allowed those in their image to use magic, and that catalysts took on the personality of the last person to use them and could be used again by someone with a similar personality and lots of cool world building like that.
>As the campaign goes on, we start finding these hidden caches left behind by a magical girl who apparently came before us, detailing experiments she had performed on catalysts, youma (the enemy monsters) and even live humans to try to find a way to undo magic.
>Further terrible implications happen when this and other evidence basically points to the goddesses being beings that seed planets with life, fuck off to sleep for a few millenia while their seed grows, then wake up to consume all life on the world as their way of feeding, and magical girls are basically just pest-control to keep the other eldritch horrors out of the goddess' vegetable patch
>Campaign is literally ramping up to us having to fight magical gods for the sake of our planet.
>And then... the character who's caches/journals/research we've been following shows up... still alive.
>Things basically turn into DMPC hell.
>DMPC tells us theres a "resistance movement" already planning for this apocalypse, instead of us the players figuring out what to do.
>DMPC also basically tells us no, we can;t join the resistance, and to fuck off and leave her alone
>DMPC is also wayyy stronger than us
>Next 2 sessions are us just floundering around, getting hard-locked out of doing anything interesting, and the DM wanking over his Sue effortlessly killing things that are tough for our party then talking shit about it.

I think he is misunderstanding the situation to be that this guy could no longer attend, so you gave up.

Guy, it's not that their friend couldn't show up anymore, it's that this was the only time they could all get together and friend could not be around games because of his mental issues. They elected to hang out without games rather than socially isolate their friend.

My DM decided to integrate all our back stories into the campaign as plot threads for us to follow. A pretty important thread was that one of our characters was running from a continental criminal organization. He also happened to be a greedy cunt and tried to murder a PC in their sleep over a bag of holding, which the rest of us assumed was assault and very quickly killed the fucker. It turns out the organization that was after him was kind of important to the overall story since most of our backgrounds tied into it to some extent and the DM didn't plan for him to do that. We played like 3 more sessions before we all realized that this wasn't going anywhere.

>Okay anon, your story goes like this, you are a paladin who lives in the mage tower with the wizards, you are like a bodyguard where your friend also lives, Jimmy on the other hand is part of a thief guild

>So I lost all of my equipment? because you clearly said I had nothing but religious clothes
>Oh right, let's go back in time and pretend that you guys had all of your equipment out

It's the same thing as writing normally, to be honest, except with erotica, getting a boner while you're writing isn't distracting, it's motivational. Just don't blow your load before you finish writing, or at least writing the sex, or you'll never finish it. Not like I've written that much erotica but that's what I remember from the experience.

Personal choice would be hard pounding and light strangulation for climax that fades into blacking out.

Really, it should cover all of the things that are important to the characters coming in right now.

And their NTR obsession. Though I suppose West is similar with our Cuck obsession. Pain in the ass to have good characters turn around and pull that and they -not- act like it would be a horrendous experience. It is somewhat refershing when they act in a normal fashion though (a-la NOPE, or in the case of rape actually get messed up).

Speaking of Rape, that has killed more then one session for me. If you are doing it, don't base it off hentai, it downplays it so fucking hard.

The problems could also be different levels of investment.

This happened to my group recently as well. After doing a campaign I decided to take a break to work on some homebrews and be a player for once, while one of my friends ran a short game himself, then I'd bring up my next campaign.

Started in the beginning of March, then about five or six sessions later we finished it. Last month.

The worst part is that a twist like that could have actually worked if the GM had a bit of subtlety in his body.

Have the campaign start out exactly like described. Tensions rise and the crew slowly but surely split off into unofficial factions. Let there be betrayals and intrigue, culminating the first act with a heavy atmosphere that open fighting is imminent if the PCs can't figure out a way to placate all sides.

And then vital systems start breaking, obviously sabotaged. People start to go missing. There's invisible, difficult perception rolls done on the GM's side, and if a character passes, they get privately told about how they -- just for a second -- swear they heard a creaking in the vents, a hiss from inside the walls, or saw something move in the now ever-present darkness, but whatever was there is gone by the time they do a double take.

Put on a shit-eating grin as you explain the reason "no to low combat" was specified is because if the thing that's now hunting the crew finds you, it'll tear you apart before you can scream.

It was a pretty good campaign. It just ended in the same way. Never being finished, which is the biggest utmost piece of bullshit.

Also, it turned out the the magic user was a lawful evil Warlock. When ever he cast a spell he would describe it and the GM knew exactly. He only wanted to kill evil beings as they counted as a sort of sacrifice to his god. None of knew, we were only informed 3 months afterward when the campaign was officially canceled.

5e DnD yeah yeah, I know

In this setting, magic is twisted. Wizards Implode and there are no more sorcerers to be found. Divine magic is still there, though it is cast through the seeking of spirits that suffuse the world all around the characters. Warlocks drain the power of the spirits to cast their spells, which is why they are hunted by clerics, paladins and druids and shunned by bards, all of which make deals with the spirits to cast their spells.

Yet there is an abundance of magic items in the world, still, as well as shops that sell magic items and stuff like that.

Same old, same old except you can't play wizard or sorcerer. What even is the point?

I can see the appeal of a story about dealing with, and overcoming, rape trauma for example.
("I include rape in my medieval games because I care about realism" is complete nonsense though. If the GMs who do this cared about realism there'd be STDs and a bunch of gross shit all around. Just be honest and admit you like the dramatic opportunities, cheap shock, or magical realm aspects.)

That's a bit different than what most people are worried about. If you had agreed with the players beforehand that the campaign would contain these types of themes then it's fine.

Most of Those Guys that include rape in games are doing it to be edgy, doing it when it's not appropriate, and/or it's their Magical Realm.

No, it's very rape. Her enthusiasm lasts for the first two scenes where she happily gives one guy a blowjob and another guy a titwank, but then she has to leave for some reason (I don't speak moon), and when she tries to go they grab her, throw her down, tie her up and then fuck her face while she cries.

Basically, we managed to set up a situation wherein everything in the arena place went to shit and staged a breakout. Except that like, that implies more of a plan than we went into this with: We had literally had no information about anything going on.

We end up managing to find a living, basically demonic ship that was imprisoned for being too powerful and too evil or whatever. It offered to be our ship in exchange for breaking it out and we crewed it with the rapidly dwindling friendly NPCs we had (NONE OF WHOM WERE EVEN NAMED. Just, "there are other slaves or something").

By this point I was mutating into a bird person, for reasons. Honestly everyone else was much worse off than that. I tried to take this opportunity to encourage the rest of the party to maybe try and make this awful ship we were on back into a nice place, but then the obligatory lolrandum dickhead decided that we should let some of the fucking awful and ubiquitous space beasts and aids that blanket every world lit by a sun on board. You know, so we can fight them or get sick or something???

Anyway, with order rapidly disintegrating, we basically set about along a trail of breadcrumbs and ciphers that retraced the steps of some investigators from 10,000 years ago who were trying to figure out why everything was going to shit (Or in our case, HOW everything went to shit), and indeed whether there was a solution.

In some respects this felt engaging at the time, but it is probably revealing that I do not remember *anything* that we did during this time. I think we found the precursor race to humanity hiding in an extradimensional closet at one point bemoaning how fucked everything was.

Anyway, we finally got to a desolate station in the middle of nowhere inhabited by noone except for the guy we had been reading about in the notes, still alive after all this time. He had basically called us out here asserting that he still had a way to unfuck everything.
>>
>>54952588
Oh, I should mention that my first character died ignobly a session or two prior to this and I rerolled as some technobarbarian hair metal dude.

Anyway, the big reveal of this super ancient dude? No, he actually had no way to unfuck anything. He'd spent the last 10,000 years contemplating that that might actually be possible, but no, it was not. The only salvation he could concieve of at this point was maybe that there might be something after death to look forward to.

*CUE FINAL BOSS FIGHT*

My character arguably suffered the worst fate of all. He got tossed into open space. Since everyone else either died or teleported to another dimension in an attempt to outrun the apocalypse, he was left there to contemplate the darkness of space for another century or two until the apocalypse obliterated space itself around him.

Dood, its a game about fantasy knife ears and bearded stubbyguts.

You can create whatever magical realm you fucking want, and you CHOSE this one.

Why?

More importantly, how the FUCK do you justify your character having 20th century enlightenment values in a 13th century fudalism setting?
My point being that if you WANT rape in your Elf-dwarf-dragon realm you can fucking have it, but its not a given that it should be there any more than the magic pixie who shoots glitterdust out her bunghole 'SHOULD' be there.

I had a character that was conceptualized as a rape trauma survivor.

People get raped, dude, it happens. In terms of roleplaying I saw it as an interesting opportunity to have a character grow from.

Rape in storytelling is somewhere between a bugbear & an elephant in the room. Considering that in our culture pretty much anything sexual is very much Not Polite Conversation there's this stigma attached to any sort of conversation about it.

Also there's the added complication with stuff like date rape where the aggressor can kind of talk themselves into thinking 'oh it's okay that's not real rape' meaning that, sadly, there's an unpleasantly large section of the population who see nothing wrong with rape.

So if someone at your table starts with "and then he just, like, totally starts raping the elf chick" sometimes it's hard to tell if they're doing it for narrative reasons or if they legitimately are playing out a fantasy at the table.

>Rape in storytelling is somewhere between a bugbear & an elephant in the room
This phrasing seems misleading. Rather, rape is a serious element that dominates any scene it arises in, as does even attempted rape.
Unlike murder, it's not easily trivialized.

Off the top of my head:
>rape scene in Streetcar Named Desire
>implied rape in Lawrence of Arabia
>attempted rape in Crime & Punishment

In TTRPGs, it's more a question of "is this game actually going to be serious enough to involve a serious element like rape?"
Same reason I've never run a Poison'd game, nor had a group I would ever be able to run it with although I envy those who are able to. TTRPG players in general seem more interested in joking around and having a good time. The heaviest discussions we've had are theological ones hidden behind the screen of the setting's own deity system.
>>
>>54962442
>>54962332

Sorry, I meant the -discussion- of rape as an element of narrative.
>>
>>54962332
>>54962442
But, then again, I've read a fair number of fantasy/historical novels where rape occurs and it's not a serious issue. Black Company has men walking away with women captives slung over their shoulder. Some of Bernard Cromwell's novels have it mentioned while cities are being sacked, along with torture and slaughter of the defeated soldiers. Etc.

Setting depending, it actually can be put on the side. I retract my statement that rape is not easily trivialized, and instead state that the setting and style of narration determines the treatment of rape a great deal.
>>
>>54962469
As in, the nature of rape in a character backstory?
"Discussion" is a bit too vague.

Shit man, that sucks. I was in a long campaign a while back where every Arc had one of the PCs in the spotlight. One story arc we saved one character's adventurer parents from a deadly dungeon, another one we defeated a PC's nemesis, and all that. The last arc was supposed to be about my character, who hadn't gotten to make any decisions all game because That Guy was self-proclaimed party leader. That Guy, by the way, got TWO arcs just to his character and dominated the roleplaying in the other three arcs even though they weren't about his character.

Session 1 of my character's story arc That Guy declares he's going to kill my character in their sleep for something I did 8 sessions prior. He failed, so to spite me when we showed up to the location of my character's story arc That Guy started doing random shit that derailed the story completely. He then gave the villain the MacGuffin he needed to complete his master plan for no reason.

The GM skipped my character's arc and went right to the finale. Nothing about my character's past or life goals was ever resolved, and to this day That Guy has insisted that he did nothing wrong and that I shouldn't be so selfish about wanting the spotlight.

The only reason I still play with this person is because other people in the group like them and don't seem to mind how shitty he treats me.

Rape is real and a great story element. That group of bandits you're after? Why are you after them? They robbed someone? Or they robbed AND raped someone? The latter is much, much worse. Boom. Demonized robbers. The former might as well have been a poor fuck trying to get by.

What else can you not stand in your games? Killing? Why is that any different? Robbery? Murder? Horses? Rocks?

You can pretend every single thing in your games are a conscious choice instead of "meh, fits the setting" all you want, but you'd be a lying sack of shit.

Get real. Grow up.

GM who never does anything to immerse us or challenge us once ran a game with a mildly challenging first session, with great background sounds and decent enough voices for characters (Something we never get, usually). The actual interactions felt organic as well, as in, no one was just some Yes Man or was telling us No no matter the scenario just because the story demanded it. The combat was okay, bit more tactical than I was used to for this guy's games, but the point was was that I actually had to think.

Yep, great first session. Next two after that and we were back to the same old routine. Found the evil emperor, shot him in the back twice, and never once did he attempt to stop us. Just sat there and kept praying.

I stopped joining his games after that. After how much effort there was shown in that first session, he just had no excuse for being lazy.
>>
>>54991230

>they burned down a poor farmer's whole livelihood
At least they let the farmer get off easy

>they sent assassins after you because you've been interfering in their plans
Because they're totally gonna rape a party of adventurers, sure

>they kidnapped a kid and are holding it for ransom
Because rape doesn't get you money

But hey, good try.

Also, why are arson, assassination and kidnappings "allowed", if rape isn't? What's the difference? All of those are crimes that ought to fuck up a normal person, more or less.

Are you people really such spergs you can't handle anything even remotely sexual without either getting off or thinking the other person is getting off? How the fuck do you handle real life?
>>
I currently have a group that kills my enthusiasm to plau. There is a That Guy in the group who is running a game alongside his housemate (who runs the main campaign). Whenever something doesn't go his way, he says that he can't be arsed playing anymore and sits in his chair huffing and sighing. Then eventually joins back in.

Can't boot him since we play the game in his house. One of our players blew up at him after he said he was no longer playing for the 4th time and he just sat there, before turning on the TV.

Can't boot him 'cause it's his house. I thought stoners were meant to be chill.

Given that context it's not awful, just disappointing in that it turned into generic rape hentai.

The animation is good, especially for pixel art. I can't speak to the audio as I usually watch stuff muted for a variety of reasons that mostly stem from habit because I had no audio on my computer for a while.

Anyway, pretty decent until it turns into rape. I'd give it 5/10, average, overall.

It is a Roleplaying game, not rollplaying.

I tried to run a monster campaign with the idea that the players would be stuff like goblins and kobolds and be on the run from adventurers. Slowly evolved into them trying to destroy the world. Then they did an about face when one of the players, who I guess hadn't been paying attention for the past six months, became horrified that the party was evil, and made her boyfriend change his whole character on the spot. They spent the rest of the game slaughtering all the monsters they had allied with and saving the world for the humans . . . who still hated them and wanted to exterminate them.
