Jesus, guys, lay off, Maxwell just prefers the action economy, customization, and strategic depth of the Pathfinder 2nd Edition system.

[–] givesomefucks 64 points 2 months ago

He doesn't like being confined by someone else rules, that's why he's been GMing the same homebrew campaign for the last 25 years.

Everyone else quit years ago, it's just him rolling dice then looking surprised into a mirror.

3 action economy is pretty sweet

[–] chemical_cutthroat 17 points 2 months ago

And just all around better monster design and a higher skill cap.

For those who don’t know, the guy on the left is a professional wrestler called MJF.

His whole persona is dedicated to being a tool, and he’s pretty good at it. Highlights include telling the world that he’s “better than Moses.”

What I’m saying is that he’s doing a bit in this image. It’s kayfabe.

[–] hate2bme 41 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Now please explain what kayfabe is.

[–] IonAddis 55 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Acting, literally. Playing a character to entertain. Some characters are villains.

I think this is why random wrestling dudes sometimes successfully slide into Hollywood acting careers.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

For more context. He was fueding with someone who was enthusiastic about DnD

[–] Norin 28 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Kayfabe is the wrestling term for always staying “in character.”

[–] hate2bme 10 points 2 months ago

Thank you also

[–] [email protected] 40 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He's already one of my all time favourites, he's so damn good at being a hateable piece of shit with one of the most punchable smug little faces.

Even his parents hate him!

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Just making sure - is he actually a bad dude or just one hell of a heel?

[–] madcaesar 25 points 2 months ago

Hell of a heel.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 months ago

Just one of the greatest heels ever. I've heard nothing but good things about him out of character.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] Chekhovs_Gun 3 points 2 months ago

Not all heels wear masks

"only nerds play that dungeons and dragons fantasy crap... Oh shit I'm late for my fantasy football league!"

-meatheads

[–] barcaxavi 2 points 2 months ago

Funny, but partly because I don't even know how would I even be late from a league.

[–] [email protected] 47 points 2 months ago

Guy who’s too cool to roleplay can’t find another human being to photograph him.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 months ago

Using computers, liking comic book characters and tabletop gaming have been mainstream for like 20+ years. Lifting is cool too though. I just let people like what they like.

[–] philthi 24 points 2 months ago

I mean, he looks strong, but look how hard he's having to work to hold up his phone... I can do that with one hand while on the loo and barely even have to flex!

[–] roguetrick 21 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Man, you play a session with a body builder though and they'll just never stop eating. Just peanuts peanuts and peanuts.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Same shit happens when you have sex with them. Extremely frustrating.

[–] Meron35 7 points 2 months ago

Ikr. Had sex with one and couldn't stop eating his nuts

[–] saltesc 18 points 2 months ago

The ™ against his name is 👌

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You don't play Dungeons and Dragons because you're dumb af

[–] [email protected] 31 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You don't play Dungeons & Dragons because it's too nerdy, I don't play Dungeons & Dragons because it's not nerdy enough. We are not the same.

[–] chemical_cutthroat 22 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I don't play it because Hasbro. I don't know where that puts me. I'm just sick of their shit. Paizo for life.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Paizo seemed like half measures to me. I'm a Steve Jackson man now

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

There's a name I haven't heard in a long time

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They stopped putting out new versions due to completeness. j/k, but I'd love to try out a GURPS campaign.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

No j/k, they pretty much decided that the base is solid, and shifted their focus to supplements. I'm having a lot of fun with GURPS.

[–] GeneralEmergency 14 points 2 months ago

The longevity of this image shows that kayfabe isn't dead.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

This looks like a virgin vs chad meme.

[–] d00phy 8 points 2 months ago

I mean one of these two was married to Sofia Vergara, so…

[–] aluminium 12 points 2 months ago

do whatever you want

Guy on the right's dice:

[–] Gradually_Adjusting 9 points 2 months ago

He seems like more of a WoD guy tbh, the drama kids always have one meat-head friend

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Dungeons & Dumbbells

[–] blanketswithsmallpox 5 points 2 months ago

This would be even funnier if the person on the right was the graphics designer or editor lol.
