Transcription:

A picture of a skinny female orc with the side of her head shaved. She wears an armless red dress and a black shawl, as well as matching red bracelets and a black choker with a gold heart at the front.

At the top of the image is the text "You may not like it, but this is what" in large bubble font

At the bottom of the image is a screenshot from the new D&D changelog, reading "• Orcs no longer have the Powerful Build feature."

And below that, the text "Peak 2024 D&D orc performance looks like" continues the bubble font from the top.

I don't think they made the 5Essentials Orc Warcraft-color.

omg I love the term "5Essentials" to refer to the new edition.

Not a player nor a DM, so correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it basically photoshop human now? Grab a human, shift colors until skin is green...orc? :|

Yes it is. It’s like they wanted to do what PF2.0 did with Ancestries but also do a really shitty job of it. It’s fine though; 3.5e, 5e, PF1.0, and PF2.0 are all still out there for anyone who wants to run better systems that are still “DND.”

I'm pretty hyped for DC20. I backed the Kickstarter... now I just need life to fuckin' chill long enough for me to pull a game together to test out the beta rules.

I'm actually a fan of the general change to races and background. It's more role play friendly because all the tables available to me are run like we're power gaming. Which of course makes us power game to stay alive. So now I can be whatever I want without worrying too much.

Isn't that twink a Goblin, tho?

Also, I'm ok with this, helps diffirentiate them from Goliaths. And Orcs were never potrayed as Goliath-sized.

...No, it's too easy...

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

I was going to say "misgendering is bad" then I realised its a bisexual joke >.>

Joking about my sexuality and self deprecating humor...it's all I got

The fucks wrong with the hands? Is this ai generated?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Yes, blatantly. The earrings don't make a ton of sense, the overgarment doesn't make any sense, and all the metallic bits are kinda gloopy.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (2 children)

Nah this is hands drawn correctly but not well, AI draws hands well but incorrectly.
(relatively speaking, its still hands drawn better than I can)

Edit: Then again the ears are odd and the black thing vanishing under the clothes is confusing. Normally AI can't understand that objects going behind another object have to come out the other side and this passes that test but it also just looks weird in a way a human wouldn't do.

There's a fingernail coming out of the middle of her left hand, and it has a bonus floating finger behind it.

Count the Fingers

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

Not all races have 5 fingers?

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

Do orcs? The thumbs aren't looking great either, the righthand nail bleeds over and the lefthand thumb appears to point downwards.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago

I think you're just looking for things. It looks fine.
