Real shit I know I'm years late but why do the Empire stooges have infinitely better chemistry despite barley being people outside of their jobs than the rebel lesbians we're supposed to root for lmao

I hate how even people who like the Star Wars prequels feel the need to go "I know they're flawed, but..." when talking about their prequel love. Screw that. The prequels are wonderful. They're fun and engaging and they fit in well with the original trilogy.

And compared to the terrible fanfiction Disney Star Wars has been putting out for the last 9 years, even the worst prequel is Citizen Kane and The Godfather all rolled into one.

This is about a player I've discussed before, but it's a shorter one.

In our VTM game I allowed him to take the "Ear for Lies" upgrade to his Auspex ability (characters need to be exceptionally good at lying to even try) explaining to him that using Auspex can be a risk as it significantly increases your senses to the point you can hear sometimes miles away clearly. He said he understood, and all I tried gently reminding him was "you will take damage if you try using it 24/7, as the noise of a city is already loud without the added ability, please tell me when you plan to have it active." Ignoring me he just asks "does ear for lies go off" when speaking to NPCs, and when I remind him, he says he understands. Skipping ahead he gets into say, a gunfight, and proceeds to get upset at me as the gunfire is harming him based on sound, as the power mechanics are designed to do this for loud noises.

I do let a lot slide, but out of all the players he's the only one that expects every ability to be passive, full power, and for me to know what they all do all the time. It's difficult.

One of the hardest things in any tabletop game is players who ignore warnings and get mad at you for enforcing the rules

The caipirinha is a classic Brazilian cocktail made with lime, sugar, and cachaça, and it can be customized with mint for a refreshing twist. Here's a detailed recipe for a lime and mint caipirinha:
