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

[–] [email protected] 40 points 1 month ago (13 children)

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

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

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

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

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

I spent a good while trying to find it before posting, so I could include proper artist credit, but I just don't have it in me to scroll through so much porn rn. While I was looking, I found a very (very) similar work by the same artist tho :) CW: Porn Site

THAC69 is a an excellent reference in very small text

I did a read on FATAL's book in a Discord VC not long ago, and it just keeps going and going and going and going...the jokes about rolling for anal circumference actually do it justice. Would be hell to play, though, there's definitely better horny RPGs to try ~~any RPG is a horny RPG if you try hard enough~~

On an actual comment, mom could really be player 4 there, they clearly need someone to tank those hits

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? Just play a regular RPG

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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.

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

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?"

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

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

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.

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 lot, 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.

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

Was this Genesis or Deuteronomy?
