Well, hypernormalization continues - we're beyond parody. The comments are worth a laugh as well.
So in short, don't play the game to play an idealized version of yourself - unless the idealized version of yourself gets to live out your handicap fetish.
Mind you, it was written by a sensitivity writer.
I tried to post in the comments, that any setting that has the magic to create this magic wheelchair, has the magic to fix the underlying condition.
Haha, the bitch even has a hijab, y'know, so that we can hit two fetishes at once.
I look forward to watching them struggle against the most evil of BBEGs in my next campaign: stairs.
Okay, let's look up the person who came up with this on Twitter...
Oh no, her profile icon is a human with deer ears and antlers... And the bio...
Every. Single. Time. I've yet to meet a single "they/them" who isn't completely disconnected from reality and isn't a total narcissist.
I can't help but wonder what they would think of a long favorite series of books... The Guardians of the Flames.
A group of D&D (or similar game) players are transported to another world where they physically (and to some effect mentally) become the characters they were playing.
One of whom, in the real world, is a paraplegic... but in the other world is a normal character.
I've a feeling they would bitch because it's taking away his oppression points or some shit.
God fucking damn it As someone who loves dungeons & dragons this is bullshit. be a fucking orc that's 9 ft tall Keep your wheelchair for real life.
The message we've been force fed for decades is "you're already perfect just as you are".
This has to be one of the most retarded things ever shat out by the most overbearing, hyper-protective, beyond delusional Karen who maybe meant well in her retarded psychopathic ways.
You're not perfect. You're shit. Git gud, scrub
Imagine writing such an inane article about some 3rd party publisher's patreon-funded homebrew and then spending a week arguing in the comments thought policing while ignoring the glaring mechanical problems being brought up. Greatsword dexbased damage. Better-than-plate ac. At-will flying with an option to permanently ignore difficult terrain with no drawback, etc. Its trash and overpowered as fuck. People that arent handicapped would be mad NOT to use this.
Its not suprising - remember these people lack any real creativity - so naturally all their characters are just self-inserts.
Its the limits of the programming - we don't want the NPCs to become self aware otherwise they could not be relied upon to perform their assigned tasks in the utopia comrade.
Parody becomes reality.
