That guy who keeps playing a specific non-human race that you know is his fetish

I'll never understand the nu-Veeky Forums mentality where we're supposed to live in constant fear that someone, somewhere might be getting off to something. If they don't do it in a way that makes people around them uncomfortable, what's the issue?

Because I'm here for a fantasy combat game, not to help you make contrived porn.

Do you also get upset when there is a gay person in your vicinity because you don't swing that way? That's basically equivalent to what you're saying. Neither one is bothering you, and both are being respectful in this scenario. The only time it should be an issue is when they are being creepy about it. In which case, they probably shouldn't have been in the game in the first place.

Ha ha, joke's on you, I am jerking off to heroic combat as we speak!

It's fine as long as he's not weird about it

Protip, dipshit, inserting your sexual deviency into any RPG campaign, much less all of them, is fucking creepy

kek

what do not get about the word fantasy's definition ? glide a finger in your hole dumbass

>fantasy combat game
>combat game
>This is all RPGs are to me
Sad. Also I think you people are all massive perverts and just deeply repressed. You don't actually have an issue with this stuff, you just resent anyone who isn't as ashamed of their sexuality as you are. Why would you claim innocuous fantasy staples like elves or ladyknights are inherently "fetishbait" if you aren't secretly, constantly, sexualizing them yourself?

user, think about it - people will waifu characters in an anime or a videogame that have absolutely nothing lewd about them, or they arguably weren't even intended to be looked at romantically. Basically anyone can take 'porn' away from something that was never porn in the first place, if they really want to.

I've never known a player like this. I have one guy who always plays a wizard, but he's been everything from a human back in 3e to an air genasi as of last week.

If you projected any harder they could string you up in an imax. Did it ever occur to you that even if you were being innocuous, which you fucking aren't, that nobody wants to think about your fat ass jerking off? Especially if it's a roll 20 campaign instead of IRL

And obviously the combat isn't all there is, but when over 90% of the rules are about preparing for and performing combat, it is perfectly fair to say that that is what the game is about. Now there are games and systems where this isn't the case, but we're obviously talking about D&D and co.

Except we're not talking about someone who happens to have a kink for something that shows up in a game, but someone making a half orc female every game (or whatever the fuck OP is supposed to be) explicitly because that's what they masturbate to. It's fucking gross.

Not that user but people who constantly broadcast their sexual preferences are just annoying autistic assholes who have to gaslight other people about being repressed losers in an attempt to convince themselves and other retards that their fetishes aren't weird adolescent paraphilias.

You clearly demonstrated with you can't distinguish between someone getting off in their head and not inserting it into the game in any overt way, and someone openly narrating their fantasies in nauseating detail. That sure sounds to me like someone who's terrified of sexual and paranoid about anyone finding out about theirs

Are they jacking it at the table? Are they making obvious attempts at forcing sexual content in game? Are they frequently drawing attention to aspects of their characters appearance purely for the sake of titillation?

If the answer to all three is "no" then I don't see what the issue is. So he plays Horcs because he likes muscle girls, so the fuck what? Even if I knew about it, as long as he's not being a distraction then I wouldn't really care about it enough to make a fuss over it.

But they never have to include anything lewd within the game itself. In theory they could even avoid any sort of romantic encounters or humorous hijinks that end in innuendos, and still get exactly what they want, which is having a cute half-orc girl or handsome dwarf man included at all. Can be a completely normal game aside from those personal motivations.

Is that really so bad, especially when compared to all the people who are far too overt about their fetishes, or only play a race beyond human because of stats and numbers?

It is never okay to do this. You are manipulating other people for your own personal pleasure. Do not use other people as a means to an end.

People like are usually just as fucked up as the people they complain about and the only reason they react so violently is because they're terrified of someone finding out what they jack off to.

Usually, they end up being pedophiles or closet /d/eviants.

bbc.co.uk/ethics/introduction/endinitself.shtml

It's not moral to use other people as a means to an ends. This is basic morality.

What the fuck does that have to do with anything? Who is getting "used" when a guy plays an buff orc girl because he thinks buff orc girls are cute?

The premise of the fucking thread is someone inserting it into every campaign

I jack off to (and with) big, hairy dads dude, I got no problem admitting it, I just don't make my whole life about it and make every one of my characters Hagar.

Consider that perhaps you're just an insufferable asshole that imagines everyone else is just as into dickgirls and diddling kids as you are.

>Is that really so bad
Yes. Everyone knows what you're doing and nobody wants to think about why you're doing it. It's like hosting a party and then leaving a sex doll on the floor. Sure, maybe you don't fuck it or even talk about it, but it's still there, unignorable.

>I'm a gross pervert so that means everyone is
Are you even sentient?

>I jack off to (and with) big, hairy dads dude
See, I knew you were a /d/eviant all along. Now all you have to do is be comfortable with yourself and maybe you'll start to calm down a bit.

I had one of those.
I pulled him aside and pulled his card.
He stopped showing up.
Nothing of value was lost.

Everyone in existence has a kink user, the only difference between me and you is that I'm not wasting my time getting offended over it like a soccer mom.

But it's not, it's about someone repeatedly playing a race they have a fetish for, and we're specifically talking about whether it's wrong if they never actually bring it up or do anything overtly creepy. You people keep asserting that it is, even literally conflating playing a specific character with bringing a literal sex object into the room. You're clearly uncomfortable with the very IDEA of sex even if the act itself is so much as hinted at, and that's why we're calling you repressed

But...who knows? Really, it's not as if I go into a game going 'hey fuckos I masturbate daily to half-elves, guess what sort of paladin I'm playing.' Are you going to get mad at a person for a reason you can't even really confirm?

>I got no problem admitting it

Also what the fuck do trannies have to do with hairy bara dudes? Seriously man, stop projecting so hard it's embarrassing.

The premise of this thread is whether or not there's anything wrong with someone playing a character that you know they're attracted to.

Most people ITT say no (with the caveat that they aren't being overtly creepy about it) while you're saying that it is inherently wrong, even if the player isn't doing anything that would red flags and most of the issue is on YOU for being skeeved out over the fact that they are turned on by their character while also playing through the game normally.

It's more the fact that you're a faggot.

>and co.

Is he disruptive and/or annoying/creeping out other players? If not, there isn't really anything wrong with it.

No one is offended by your perversions, but by your insistance on involving others in pretending to act them out

If you make your character something you are specifically physically attracted to , especially the same thing over and over again, your character is a sex object

When do you gamers sit down at a table and start discussing eachothers racial fetishes?

The mind-boggling part for me isn't the fact that hes inserting his fetish into your games through a pc, but the fact that you know what his fetishes are. I don't know any of the fetishes at my table of 6, and i'd rather keep it that way or else i'll end up triggered like OP

Do you all discuss your fetishes with your party?

When someone plays a burly orc woman 6 times in a row its kind of hard to not at least speculate why

What is with this board's fixation on people's fetishes?

The huge proportion of /d/ crossposters

>No one is offended by your perversions
You're clearly uncomfortable with the knowledge that somebody is playing a character that they would sleep with if it were possible, even though the guy isn't actually causing problems at the table.

I play nothing but tortles, dragonborn and fishfolk. It's not because i'm a fucking scalie but its because i think dinosaur/fish people are rad.

I'd use this as my rule of thumb. Expect nothing of a character unless the Player goes into detail with just about everything involving the characters appearance and mannerisms. It'll help you focus more on the game and less on what the player whacks off to when he goes home for the night.

>When someone plays a burly orc woman 6 times in a row its kind of hard to not at least speculate why
Assuming this was a case where we didn't know their fetish, I'd just assume that he likes playing strong women the way I usually gravitate more towards bare-knuckle brawlers in the games that I play.

I think that you're just overthinking this.

>that guy who keeps playing a specific non-human race that you know is his fetish
So you mean human players?

Yes, I am fucking uncomfortable that someone brought their porn to the table. Not that they have kinks, but for whatever reason decided to put them out for us to see

Nobody brought their porn to the table, you just found out that the player in question likes jacking it to monster girls.

You're hysterical.

You must be so fun to play with.

>>Is it okay to do this?
No commandment against it, so I guess it's fine.
>>Does it take away from the game for others?
Well, you gotta ask the "others".

As long as his fetish stays there and doesn't interfere with either the setting (ie; the race he wants doesn't exist and wouldn't fit the 'vibe' of the game) or the other players, I don't care.

So what are your games like, if you can't include anything that anyone could possibly be attracted to in even a private way? If the guy is into half-orcs, obviously you can't include them as NPCs since he'd just lewd them as well.

>So what are your games like, if you can't include anything that anyone could possibly be attracted to in even a private way?
Clearly he doesn't have any humans in them.

doesn't take away from it for me, although it is fun mocking him for wanting to fuck catgirls

There are no characters in the game. Since lewd dialogue can be arousing, communication is done through a series of pencil taps to simulate Morse code. Nobody is allowed to look at or touch one another either, as these simulate feeling. Anyone who doesn't follow these rules in their games is honestly just a pleb.

>Morse code
>making use of vibrations

I didn't come to play an erotic adventure sir.

Yes. No, as long as he doesn't masturbate furiously at the table I guess.

He was teleported home, right?

>that guy who keeps playing human males because he's gay
Why's he gotta bring his fetish into muh game?

>So what are your games like, if you can't include anything that anyone could possibly be attracted to in even a private way?
No one said that, you disengenuous faggot. I said I wouldn't want to play with someone using a shitty /d/ tier waifu as a PC. Luckily, it's never come up.

It's alright user, he was teleported to a nice farm upstate.

>but its because i think dinosaur/fish people are rad.
Fucking FINALLY!
Everytime I've played a race like that I get accused of having some absurd fetish.
Is it so hard to believe that someone is just playing a race they think is cool rather than wanting to fuck it?

Dinosaurs or fish people are weird enough I would actually be inclined to believe that it is "because they are cool". But It would mostly depend on the character art, if provided

Here's a theoretical scenario.
>person picks a race that could be furry/fetish fuel (catfolk, kitsune, wolfman, etc.)
>person writes out their own backstory and ideas for the character
>plays well with the group
>is respectful to everyone
>doesn't do anything weird regarding their character
This is fine, yes? Or will someone still find issue with this?

If it's not done every fucking time, sure. That's the hang up. Nobody cares about you playing an orc woman, they care about you doing it 90% of the time

So would you also get mad at someone playing a rogue 90% of the time because they like Rogue?

Nigga classes aren't even races. The fuck you on about?

Depending on the circumstances, maybe. It would mostly depend on if they were hogging the role.

Obviously, fuckhead. But it seems to me that you wouldn't be bothered with played a class they like all the time. Why the hell does a perfectly good member of the group get shit on if they play a race they really like? That's my point. There is no logic to your views.

>There isn't a single person out there with a fetish for priests, witches, knights, muscled out barbarians...
Anything can be a fetish, and those are pretty fucking common. Why is someone who tends to play a certain race automatically under suspicion when classes aren't?

You're talking to multiple people. But more importantly, you're conflating two different things. In most medieval fantasy games, you're going to need at least one sneaky person. But the party definitely doesn't need your shitty monstergirl waifu

>talking to multiple people
with equally low intelligence apparently
>conflating things
nope. you're wrongly equating someone always playing rogue with always playing the role of the sneaky person. Ignore roles. Lets say sneaky person is already covered. They are playing more of a martial, but they always play the same rogue. Can the party do without that role they play? Totally. Are they hurting anyone by playing it? No. In fact, this person is a pleasant addition to the party. Why is someone playing properly and being a good addition to the party a detriment? I haven't seen any logic pointing otherwise. Just namecalling.

Fucker, the conversation was never about /d/-tier waifus. It was only about including a specific race, which could be anything from as crazy as some sort of bugman to just a half-orc - and the latter is decidedly not /d/-tier.

who are you playing with where they accuse you of wanting to fuck your character? Veeky Forums?

Everybody else at the table. Just because you're not actively fucking them over doesn't mean you're not using them.

If he keeps making it sexual, then probably. If he's not making a thing out of it but someone else is sperging out then it's on the sperg.

>Non-human
>Fetish.
Playing a character based on the traits of personality Vs. playing a character purely on race traits.

Human is a great choice for race because if it's done well you know it's on the merits of the PC and his/her role play abilities and Character development skills.

It's the people who demand that they play anything else that prove that depend on lame race traits to be "relavant".

A fa/tg/uy in the gaming club back in college always played female centaurs. Always.

I was running Cyberpunk 2020. He wanted to join the game. And he wanted to play a female centaur. He suggested that her lower half, the horse part, could be mechanical.

I politely rejected this idea. He politely declined to join my campaign.

That guy knows how to be subtle about his fetish. Clearly an expert. No one will assume he true intent with that guy.

>t. another faggot who believes only humans have personalities

Everyone knows human characters have no personalities
The only people who play them are special snowflakes who want to be edgy, only to end-up playing the same old boring "brooding and grizzled" fighter, who ultimately does not bring anything new to the table outside of being a prick to the other players

Let me guess, it's thief and/or assassin

>He suggested that her lower half, the horse part, could be mechanical.
...That's halfway to interesting, desu

>...That's halfway to interesting, desu

Oh, I agree. But it's not appropriate for a Cyberpunk 2020 character for a variety of reasons (not the least of which is play-viability). It'd be a great character for Rifts, though. Hell, for all I know, it's already an OCC.

Your post is hardly worth a response because you make it very clear you get most your "experience" Veeky Forums, if you even play any TTRPG at all.

I didn't even imply that. Playing human with personality shows you can play a character without being dependent on a race trope. Where as depending on a race trope only shows your inability to play a actual personality.

Humans are perfect for a vast array of diverse personalities. If you can't make a human interesting or different then you clearly have a handicap.

To be clear with your assuming asses, you can easily play anyone well with good RP. I'm not saying you can't. I'm just saying race tropes arnt a good personality traits and depending on a race trope is bad Role play.

But being able to play a non-human character without resolving to race tropes, while still acknowledging them and taking them into account shows an even greater degree of roleplaying skill than the "everything goes" human

Wrong, it shows an equal amount of skill. And what you describe isn't a problem.

The problem comes with how you literally say playing human is bad because it's not interesting when you shouldn't have any issue playing an interesting Character as a human. A disapproval of human Characters under the idea that humans are boring only shows (not proves) an inability to role play well.

There's something weirdly charming about this Firbolg. I mean, the stats aren't bad and that helps, but she seems like a nice lady that just wants to stop an undead meteor from crashing into the planet so she can go back to being a hermit in the forest.

I must have more of this. Please provide sauce for my spaghetti.

Ever ran into the guy who insists on playing a jap or injun in a medieval Europe setting?
