Oh man. Sometimes I miss being in college where I could have been in that thread laughing while it was live. Now I'm stuck just watching it like an old movie.

This is just as wrong as the other thread, and I was one of the people telling that OP they were full of shit.

Especially the troll claiming a fighter is superior to 3 bears and a companion. And the faggots trying to make then fight eachother.

Is shit. It's a 3.X knockoff that still suffers from the same systemic issues.

>It's a 3.X knockoff that still suffers from the same systemic issues
OK. I was just going to let the guy say it was worse than 3.5 and not care. But I have to know why you're calling it a 3.X knockoff.

Honestly, I find 5e to be worse. In 3e, even if playing the game quickly became a chore, at-least the character building process was genuinely fun. Hell, I'd go so far as to say that it's the most entertaining character-building game around.... it's just that actually playing it at the table once you've build the character is boring.

5e, on the other hand, takes 3e's playstyle, format, and aesthetics, but removes the engaging character-building process for something streamlined and balanced (which you'd think would make the actual gameplay better, but it doesn't.) It's like non-alcoholic beer. It does literally nothing well.

Now nothing will be as bad a 3E in my opinion, that was a shitshow all around.

Your honesty is appreciated, but your taste and opinions are both wrong and shit.

Playing "character creation thought experiment" is not "playing 3.X" and should not be considered a merit of 3.X
>>
>>44331895
>Tfw I find character creation to be a chore.

My problem with 3.5 is that most games I played in (as in most groups) it was all about numbers. Even when trying to get the game going everyone though mechanically. It was also my introduction to RPGs so that's how I started to think (I don't care about numbers so much now). Out of the 5 3.5 DMs I remember I can say that I only genuinely had fun with one of them.
>>
>>44331954
But it is the only saving grace of 3.X, and 5e is practically a clone, but with that one saving grace removed.

Enjoy your shit system where the best thing that can be said about it is "the combat is boring and downright unpleasant, but at-least it's over quickly.... like an angry stoplight handjob."

Exactly. Pic related plus one or two tidbits of information such as why they're there and what they want should be all you need for a compelling character.

Personally I need a bit more than that myself. I'd like some sort of categorization of what is the most defining and what is only a part. Maybe it's because I still have some of that 3.5 mentality. But the loosest characters I would want (for a player at least) would be Heroquest 2 or the knockoff (though I admit I don't know much about Other Worlds).

If 3.5 is bad, then PF is worse, I agree.

What's bad about number crunching, min maxing game? It's clearly not for everyone.

>>44332550
Different guy and I have no problem with a number crunching and min maxing game as long as it's balanced, see Anima and Fantasy Craft.

Hello virtoptim, why don't you praise the glories of FATAL so that you get banned again?
>>
>>44332628
Wait, I thought Virt loved 3.5 and hated 4e and 5e.
>>
>>44332647
Virt hates everything and doesn't actually play any games.
>>
>>44332647
Virt loves whatever the poster doesn't like and loves everything that the poster hates.


>There are people on /tg/ who care enough about name/tripfags to remember who they are

I say that but I remember a few: tohou because he got banned and took any 4e discussion off the site. Golden neckbeard because he posted a lot of pictures of himself. Lace because he was a little boy boogeyman and sergal because everyone hated sergal.

You've opened the can of illiterate worms anon.

I cannot wait for people to post builds that don't work or that are easy as fuck to counter

What.

I thank god we have a low % of tripshits, and that they've going down.

We still have super-cancerous shitwads like ND.

>>44331954
The fact that 3.X was not intended to be best at chargen is irrelevant, and the fact that playing "3.X chargen" is not the same as playing "3.X gameplay" is also irrelevant.

It's the same sort of thing as that stereotypical Christmas gift that the kid it was given to is so excited about, until he ends up having tons of fun with the box it came in instead. The gift that kid's parents thought they were giving sucked (at least, relatively speaking), but the actual gift that was given was great.

Or, if you don't like that example, it's like those Lego kits. They're meant primarily to be assembled according to the directions and then played with, but are often more fun as a pile of new pieces to build whateverthefuck with.
>>
>>44333000
Just some guy who always wanted to play a little boy. Or a little catboy. Who, IIRC would always want to make the little boy as feminine as possible. Possibly also a neko.

It also feels good not even knowing who ND is.
>>
>>44332690
Touhou was the rare example of an anon who wasn't a douche.

I'm really happy the troll got wrecked so hard in old thread that he still tried to post OP and >>44330493

It actually makes people feel like they won an internet argument.

Isn't that the good ol' colette?

NiceDaemonette, namefag. Basically think your denied fatso that will NEVER have sex and has to talk about sex 24/7.

If that's true why he got banned?

>Isn't that the good ol' colette?
Shit, maybe. In that case I know Lace was a name but no idea who it was.

Uh. I meant posting identifying pictures with all of your posts. Like being a namefag but with themed images.
