Do you have any stories of player betrayal?

PCs betraying each other, players betraying each other out of game during it, the party betraying people in the game, and so on.

Really well done, he was a fantastic player.

>scrolling through catalogue
>suddenly i imagine men screaming
>notice your image

Goddamn I didn't even consciously notice the image until I heard the mental screaming.

I was in a ten year long campaign that was filled with so much backstabbing that players spent more time alone with the DM in the garage(that's where the DM pulled players aside for secret shit he didn't want anyone metagaming on) than actually together when all was said and done.

We had PVP.
We had players playing current characters having to fight their old characters.
We had PCs attempting to orchestrate the end of the world and almost succeeding.
We had PCs trying to save the world and almost failing.

You know when a really long running show finally comes an end and they do a bunch of reveals about the characters and stories to wrap everything up before rolling credits? It was like that in our final session. There were schemes in play from the very first session to the last that were PC driven. I don't think I'll ever experience anything quite like it again. We can barely get a short campaign going these days with how busy everyone is. Getting old sucks.

PVP isn't for everyone though. We just had the kind of group where it worked out so well and made for an intriguing story.

Have you got any specifics you want to share?

i cant even kill good and neutral NPC's in RPG games, theres no way i could PvP in D&D.

>Do you have any stories of player betrayal?
I play VtM, half of my characters where Tremere.
I cannot recall a campaign where either I betray my group, my group betrays me, my clan-mates betray me or some combination of the above.

I was not unfortunate enough to have shitty players who think it's okay to betray the party. Those are the most cancerous That Guys that have ever walked the earth.

I thank my lucky stars every day that my groups don't have shitty people who will betray you in a fucking Cooperative Game.

Good on you for retaining your calm like that.

I would've been like
>slowclap.webm
>"Wooow. You must feel sooo smart right now. Good job."
That is, if I felt like playing the monk character that just died, more. If I was not disappointed that he died, then I would probably not give a shit. But that would also mean that I wouldn't give two shits about the campaign, either.
