Yeah the issue with F.A.T.A.L. isn't _just_ that it's text and mechanics are horrifically racist and misogynistic, it's also a terrible game. It's clunky and clumsy and it's difficult to play because it's poorly written. The author spent more time thinking about his rape fantasies than figuring out how to roll them out in any coherent way. Also, very minor in comparison, but the food section is batshit wild. It's like written by someone who never ate before, the ideas of what makes cuisines in F.A.T.A.L. is hilariously bad.

>Would be hell to play, though, there's definitely better horny RPGs to try My issue with horny RPGs is that if you can find people to play with that are into whatever kink the book is catering to, why would you bother to play at all? Just have sex. And on the flipside, if you dont want to have sex with the people you're playing with, why play the sexy game at all? Just play a regular RPG

I played a horny rpg at a kink convention that went fairly well. I suppose the nuance to the situation was "I probably want to have sex with you, but I'm not sure, why don't we engage in some nerdy sexually charged situations and find out?"

> My issue with horny RPGs is that if you can find people to play with that are into whatever kink the book is catering to, why would you bother to play at all? Just have sex. Because the point is role playing. You might as well ask what's the point of any kink, fetish or sexual situation that isn't two married adults having sex for the purpose of procreation. Building up trust and eroticism is the point for a lot of people, even in plain porn¹ ¹all porn media has a story, even if people like to joke that its pointless, but that's a bigger topic for a very different conversation

Sexually charged, though otherwise usual situations *are* also just a lot of fun. I would argue that just flirting around with friends is like, a top 10 experience ever.

"If you want to make a racist and misogynistic game, at least make it fun" - Gygax, probably

THAC69 is a an excellent reference in very small text

Tagging this as NSFW would have been appreciated. I filter those things out for a reason

I've really got to go to conventions more, I hear of so many novel things going on.

Yup, sorry about that, I wasn't sure if it qualified, but I'll keep that in mind for future reference, apologies.

kinda wish there was a 'suggestive' tag or something.

>the issue ... isn't _just_ that it's ... horrifically racist and misogynistic, it's also a terrible game It's funny, but it seems like I read this phrase a not, and not just about games (book series, movies, shows, etc). I can't think of any other good examples off the top of my head, but it seems that every time an artist takes a really cool or interesting concept and fills it with bigotry, they also fill it with poorly written mechanics, potholes, clunky dialogue... Sure, there's media with language that doesn't age well, but it seems like 9/10, when something is made with blatant hate, there isn't even an incentive to try to push past or ignore it; the content is garbage with or without the drivel. The initial concept is just good enough to get people to want to give it a shot.

Yeah, the dildo in the middle of the table pushes this one over the top

Shit. Forgot about that.
I need to pay a lot more attention to what I post

Was this Genesis or Deuteronomy?

Indeed, while I block NSFW content, because well not what I want to see during my morning commute. This is pretty mild, so not necessarily fully blocked

Sounds like you need to spice up your commute.

FATAL fixes thi... Wait

You can edit the post to mark it as NSFW retroactively for what it's worth

That one was specially focused on geeky kink stuff and was pretty good. I really enjoyed the rope classes I took and a kind man welded my glasses together after a mishap in a scene in the hotel room we rented to attend. I've heard it waned in the past years but I imagine there's others like it if you're near any metropolitan area. Nerds love a flimsy pretense for sexually charged situations.
