>>5887474>what is missing on the rpg consent checklist...?So for me, there is just one hard line which inspires unspeakable DREAD FEAR REVULSION it is of course ANIME it is just two terrifying and abhorrent but I am surprised that they did not include things like incest (maybe falls implicitly under other categories) or domestic violence, family threat etc. I am surprised they included a category weather ??? (maybe understandable if you were in a tsunami etc) also thirst (what does this mean? Is it like anorexia or something?)
For me personally I am not too into the bloodthirsty dismemberment / mutilation ruleset thing (those wfrp rules and random tables where your character loses hands or eyes or noses, WFRP, the OSR games or Lamentation Of The Flame Princess loves this stuff for some reason - but is it ever even fun to play?) I prefer to use just some abstract wound system Dazed/Shaken, Bruised, Bleeding, Injured / Mortally Wounded etc however I am ok with including gore violence visuals in games and settings and showing its consequences, I think it is paradoxically important for the imaginary fantasy to demonstrate verisimilitude or convincing realism in a setting (not those first person shooters where a bullet in the face comes out as helmet sparks or something lol, I want Soldier Of Fortune 2 hehe)
>why the storygaming rpg players are obsessed with CONSENTso there is this phrase you may have heard called SAY YES OR ROLL I think I read it first in Burning Wheel, but maybe it came from Vincent Baker pbta creator or maybe the Sorceror rpg Ron Edwards author before him, not too sure. Anyway the idea behind this is that the DM and players never say no, they just accept every imaginary situation and roll with it, no matter the catastrophe or harm that manifests etc. You may have seen this also in that Microscope worldbuilding rpg which insists that no participant ever attempts to overwrite or negate another player's imagined fiction, instead you can move chronologically to another era / scene etc where maybe the fictional reality has changed or is different. So the Say Yes Or Roll philosophy can obviously lead to some... perturbing situations hehe
Anyway pic related is where I originally saw that exact consent checklist table,
>>5886576this faery tale rpg book is terrible. I just thought it was funny the author obsessed with consent and safety also wrote in... this other genre, hehe
