I guess I don't understand that point of view, not only doesn't that make life easier for us but it also makes it actively worse for them and for the relationships they're involved in if they are not engaging as a real partner.
why would I wish that on someone else?
it always just makes me feel kind of sad and awkward
like sometimes my wife will get off the phone after having some long and serious seeming conversation with a friend of hers and thank me like it's some big accomplishment for basic things like doing the dishes and spending time with our kids.
The bar is low guys we got to step this shit up.
I definitely spent a frustrated 45 minutes trying to figure out why curl wasn't working when it was supposed to be supported in PowerShell.
then I hit tab a couple of times and noticed curl.exe was an option, that works exactly the same as I had expected with original syntax.
they do this to a lot of things though a lot of common commands end up being an alias to a powershell command with a specific option set that doesn't always line up
oh great I'm sure the training for this will not result in a bunch of things getting "reviewed" and no one being responsible for mistakes at all...
look I know there's more important things going on here but did they photo shop his hands smaller or is this just an odd angle or wtf is going on
just got the base, horizons sounds interesting thank you!
good to hear thank you!
yeah I feel like that is the minimum I am okay with.
like if a player just wants to roll dice but does not want to be involved in the story itself at all I don't know why they would be playing a role-playing game.
knowing what they're trying to get out of the situation or at least how they are sort of going about it is the bare minimum.
I will say though that makes it less fun for me personally. I am just more into the heavier character focused stories and if there is no role-play involved it just feels like basically playing a board game.
I like board games but that's not why I play TTRPGs.
I don't know exactly where I fall on this spectrum.
on the one hand obviously you want to be encouraging to your players and create an environment where everyone is having fun.
on the other hand if I wanted to play a game solely based on its mechanics I would play something else. the R in TTRPG is there for a reason.
some of my favorite moments in games I've run have been when players improvise something in character and completely derail.
I don't think I've ever run a game where we didn't have more fun when players act like they are their character rather than act like they are controlling their character.
to be fair though I moved away from 5e and Pathfinder and other crunchy games for that reason, I just have a lot more fun with games that are less heavy on the rules and more involved on the story were telling together.
so could just very well be my gaming groups preference that leads to that experience rather than not.
I need to know where you got that awesome picture for my cosmic horror TTRPG sessions lol
yeah I enjoyed it too, a couple of different friends mentioned it being funny I don't know anyone that was upset about it.
probably just another article about some random vocal minority complaining
