I was growing a little weary of all of the woke shite that 5E D&D seems riddled with these days, so I decided to have a look at the rules for Pathfinder on their website (https://2e.aonprd.com/Rules.aspx?ID=2469&NoRedirect=1), and I wish I didn't to be quite honest with you, get a load of this shit:

"Draw an “X” on a card, and you've got an X-Card. Place it on the table at the start of the session. Any player can silently reject content they find upsetting by tapping the X-Card; whoever is speaking then rewinds a bit and continues on, excising the content."

These cunts can't even help but introduce censorship into a game that is so fundamentally open-ended, it might as well be called "Make shit up and dice"

Theres more,it goes on and fucking on . . .

Easy solution, X-card tappers don't get an invite to the next session.

I'll stable it to their fucking head and they can tap that.

Pathfinder has been a woke dumpster fire for some time, now. Almost all of the more known ones are.

You have to go to the OSR to get anything sane. Check out Lion & Dragon, Lamentations of the Flame Princess, or Old School Essentials.

The OSR is pretty dope.

What's OSR chief?

Old School Revival or Old School Renaissance.

The original open gaming license let indie developers use the d&d ruleset prior to Advanced D&D. The OSR is built on these rules as a foundation.

There are a ton of projects ranging from just makng the original rules easier to read to building whole new campaign settings and layers of new rules. They are all generally compatible with each other and classic published d&d adventures due to the shared core foundation.

The RPG Pundit is an author and big promoter of the OSR. He's a bit of an anti-woke firebrand, as well.

I appreciate a good anti-woke firebrand it has to be said. Thanks for the tip chief, this sounds promising!

Is it even worth the headache anymore? It's not even the same thing with all the rule changes up to, what 5E?

Rule book explaining the system and sample character sheet PDF $5

Character compendium $5 - This is the book that provides races, classes, monsters and other content to kick start.

D&D only exists anymore because of Branding and momentum.

I think it is the community homebrew shit that makes it brilliant.
