Average TTRPG Experience

Player: I want **this** things

GM: Ok, here ya go!

Player: *Does the opposite of that thing and doesn't touch it.*

Also Player: Hey GM, we never get **this** thing. Why?

We're all dogs barking at our own reflection thinking there's someone else. There is nobody else. We're that dog.

I really didn’t expect them to address that rings are found in all the zones (like in the games), but also in hidden Lakes of Rings (like in SatAM), which kinda confuses me. Either they’re rare trinkets or they’re found everywhere!

Man, the Waves of Change cast were really something, huh? They’re how you do worldbuilding right! They’re all unique characters on their own, they help and bond with the Freedom Fighters, and their inclusion led to a whole new civilization the games had never alluded to before. Sonic had always gone underwater and has an intense fear of it, but having Meropis be located down there gave the narrative a nice change of pace, like a vacation away from all the troubles of the surface world.

I just greatly appreciate Ian Flynn and Aleah Baker for coming together and making this concept and arc a really unforgettable one!

Half-Blood Prince: Ch 10

Marvolo, Morphin, and ... I forgot the girl’s name (Meropi?). I suppose this history of Voldemort is important. It isn’t catching me. I dunno.

That ring again. What is it? ...a special ring...?

Sin vs JFC

Number one predictor for how a player first vibed to the High God of Sin: how Christian was your family?

Very Christian: SIN IS SO EVIL. He is not right in the head. We have to destroy him!

Not Christian: SIN IS SO HOT. He makes me not right in the head. We have to keep him around.

They turned my darling boy into Hades. Just like Hades, the traditional Christian notion of Sin rises up and bitch slaps the guy. In most religions, there isn't this traditional Christian conception of Sin. It's actually kinda weird. But people don't know that's weird and thinks its normal when it is NOT.

Just like how death and the underworld isn't necessarily bad (Hades), to sin (breaking divine law) isn't necessarily bad. It is a chance to learn and grow which is a part of life in many cultures. You are going to make mistakes and transgress which is like...part of the whole process.

Hades wasn't forcing anybody to die and Sin wasn't forcing anybody to transgress. They only manage the process and the results.

Fuck I wish the Church didn't take out the books where Jesus was a bratty kid and an absolute trickster god. Maybe we'd have a better understanding of sin and its role in life.

Today's question. Am I just spewing shit? Or am I actually speaking facts? Who knows?

[imatin3222]

Yeah she's bad, but she's also a baddie

Yeah she's evil, but she danced with me

Yeah she's making zombies, but that fish was fresh and cooked to perfection

Yeah she wants to destroy the universe, but think about it she was kinda betrayed.
