Reacting to review comments on Pathfinder 2nd edition
“It’s politically correct”
“Woke BS”
Plenty of people commenting this on there. But the truth is the leftist leanings in entertainment are your fault. At least to some extent anyway.
You abandoned comics, and games as you grew up. When you decided to come back to your old favorites. You found out that Woke folks took it over.
How many of you took the time to develop creative writing skills? Someone with those talents wouldn’t care. They’d either rework the lore a bit for a homebrew or make their own ttrpg. But that takes time, and effort. Something you didn’t want to do.
You could’ve also supported alternatives or looked for like-minded communities.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m sympathetic to your outrage. I wrote a response to Jacobin about it.
But you can’t complain about it, and expect change. Will you support lesser known projects, and creators? Will you make your own? I’ll help you find what your looking for.
Just follow my blog, and buy my e-book when I finally publish it. As a way of thanking me in the future. I discuss crypto, independent wrestling, lucha, and politics here.
Comics:
These will most likely be more your style. Fits with your preferences. I’m definitely sure of that.
TTRPG:
Lamentations of the flame princess
This blog for you truly old school DND RW bros
All of these would most likely appeal to people with moderate or right wing ideals. It’s out there for you to enjoy. You just choose not to get involved with it.
I plan on writing my own short story & campaign setting that could fit into any game. Will I try to appeal to as many people as possible? Yes. Am I going to pander to score social points? No.
The simple truth is culture, and entertainment is the way it is. Because there wasn’t any resistance to change. But change isn’t necessarily bad either. It depends.
