Avowed has one, genuine, real thing that bothers me so much. They tell you that you drop a coin into Rynud's pond, rather than payment, it's tradition
Then there's no way for you to do that, as far as I can tell!
I WANNA DROP A COIN, AVOWED

lrt: it's my experience that players are almost always right abt their pain points—it's not hard for a human being to accurately tell you what they don't like—but they're basically never right about what would alleviate those points.
it's part of why QA & professional playtesting works how it does.

We are currently playing, RAW, one of the fiddliest TTRPGs out there (WHFRPG 3rd), so all the usual bs of "never playing RAW" sounds particularly lame today

One of the best parts of the "Everett True" character is my favourite trope: the cumoedgen who is playing an act constantly to cover the fact he's a big softie

Content warning for conversion therapy, suicide.
One thing I'd like to add to this is that not only does conversion therapy not work, the academic work that launched an industry of abuse was based on fraud; Rekers and Lovaas' "Sissy Boy" experiment, the child subjected to it later took his own life

The problem of conversion therapy is, as ever, not that conversion therapy doesn't work (although that's true) but that it constitutes an act of violence to suppress almost exclusively vulnerable people's core psychological development and that is devastating.

You know I've heard a lot of black creatives and artists talk about the issues of "black struggle" movies - films that center the pain and trauma of, say, slavery or racism for white film goers.

This, btw, is true of basically ALL ART.
Again and again, people will fasten onto nitpicks or stupid shit some youtuber said about a movie being bad - but in truth, they're trying to express a feeling

Remember: When you playtest a game, never take players’ feedback/suggestions at face value. Figure out what emotion is underneath what they’re telling you, and then figure out what in the game is causing that emotion
there u go, bless

I've had a lot of fun making increasingly demented builds in Arcanum and, honestly, every single one worked (in that I was able to get through the black mountain mines, the hard limiter on builds)
gunslinger with spells? check!
summoner who plays an RTS? check!
giant mechanical spider? check!

Finally hiring more squad leaders so team members can take naps.
Turns out if you run squad leaders too hard they get sleepy (y'know from all the war)
