SJWs Infecting Boardgames Again

If you ignore SJWs, they'll just get tired and go awa-

Pictured here is a newly released expansion to a "classic" boardgame released more than a decade ago. Now you are probably asking yourself what this has to do with politics. Well, to get straight to the point, if you were to look at the credits of the game you'd see among the names there, two people we're all familiar with; Zoe Quinn and Anita Sarkeesian. In this game, they wrote a scenario titled, I kid you not, "Make America Disintegrate Again" about, you guessed it, Trump's presidency. For some ill-conceived reason the lead designer for this game invited them to write scenarios for this game, fully knowing these two had little to no experience writing game scenarios for boardgames especially this specific boardgame.

So now, people who buy this end up with a shit quality scenario with forcibly injected politics (among other shit quality scenarios) in what is supposed to be a recreational activity. I just hope this expansion didn't do well at all on the market to send a message that this shit isn't ok.

WTF I didn't expect this move from Avalon Hill.

It's old news, but it's a shitty move. Why would a company allow complete strangers to make a scenario? Zoe Quinn isn't even a vg designer. I played her slide show quest and it was boring. The depression part was all clickbait to get attention.

Me either until I found out about it. What's insulting is they expect fans of Betrayal to give up good money for an expansion for the base game they've loved for years, but hope they impulse-buy and/or don't educate themselves enough to find out alot of the scenarios are written by fucking amateurs and guest "writers"

Anyway, the old Avalon Hill has been dead for years. This Avalon Hill is just a another product line and label for Hasbro.

>Why would a company allow complete strangers to make a scenario?
Like I said the Lead Designer vetted for them since they were friends of his and the suits didn't really care enough to check on the product.

yeah, that is the reason I dropped Netrunner
They brought in Leigh "Megaphone" Alexander
But from what I heard I didn't miss much and everybody seems to have dropped the game, due to shit design decisions

I really hope it dies and that the license reverts back at some point. The original was infinitely better

>They brought in Leigh "Megaphone" Alexander
Wait, what? What could they possibly have brought her in to work on in that game?

They braught her in to work on the "lore" and to write tie in novels, not game mechanics. at least not when i stopped caring.

why, beats me. but i did notice that quinns started popping up on alll netrunner related podcasts and shortly afterwards braught her along so that she could contribute by explaining that she wants the BBC of Keegan Lane.
That was shortzly before Quinns marreid her iirc.
I wish I was making this up

Fantasy Flight is in for rough times. They were bought by Asmodee a few years ago, and recently Asmodee announced that they were going exclusive with a single distribution company (they previously worked with 4-5 large distributors). Unfortunately for them they picked Alliance, a company every local game store fucking hates. That's caused a lot of fallout and I'd be very surprised if Asmodee (and by extension Fantasy Flight) actually gained anything from this deal.
In other words, if Netrunner's player base was dwindling before, it'll definitely start shitting the bed now that many game stores will refuse to carry it.

seriously I hope those two cunts die of cancer

>That was shortzly before Quinns marreid her iirc.
WAIT WHAT
THOSE TWO ARE MARRIED NOW? TELL ME YOU'RE JOKING
FUCK THIS SHIT THOSE TWO ARE GOING TO BE FUCKING OBNOXIOUS IF THEIR INFLUENCE INCREASES IN THE INDUSTRY

You know, they must give really good blowjobs.

Haven't people who need to sell things to make a living caught on to the idea that their names are the kiss of death to commercial products aimed primarily at nerds? Or is it really that they genuinely prostitute themselves to get weak side credits in fantasy media for weird vanity reasons?

It's so fucking weird. It'd be like a band hiring Gary Glitter for a track on their album. Or having their artwork done by Rolf Harris depicting Jimi Saville learing at a kid. Cosumer poison.

to be fair the only one with influence in the industry seems to be Quinns. If Leigh is at it alone she manages to fuck everything up before it becomes an Issue (read up on Sunset and her Promotion Company for example).
The problem is her influence on Quinns and the indirect influence she gets that way...

sorry to be the bearer of bad news
cancerous times ahead

Betrayal is a shit game anyway.

Some funny reviews lul

Fuck off magic faggots. 90% of your are libtards. Find a real hobby.

I mean, I was aware there was kind of "relationship" going on between them back then (since I spotted her in one of his video reviews), but I didn't expect it would go well and develop into something more over time (given that she's an alcoholic). I was hoping she'd end up being one of those 30-year old bachelorette suicides.

Go suck a black dick, that's your specialty

lol. I hope that part with Buld that hall and the other shit are true, at least.

>I was hoping she'd end up being one of those 30-year old bachelorette suicides.

Believe me so did I. The worst part is, I kind a liked Quinns back in the day before RPS went to shit. If he was a libcuck back then he at least didn't let it affect his writing. He just seemed truly enthusiastic, even if he was a giant manchild. At least he wasn't John Walker

>tfw working on a Living Card Game for the last 2 months
>Fantasy Flights is my only mainstream major competition, yet successful enough to make the product type viable to companies for co-publishing
>See this post
>Sales pitch gets that much better
Every few months this place surprises me with how helpful it is.

I used to listen to rebel FM, but somewhere around 2013 they went full cuck.

TowerFall Ascension has Anita as a bonus playable character.

Fuck I loved this game too. I bought it about 12 years ago and played it all the time.

Actually its funny how many "liberals" play boardgames. There is this local bar by me that has 1000s of boardgames that u can play and drink beers. I decided to check it out with a few friends and it was full of SJWs, gay/lesbian couples, and a ton of fat bearded trannys. It really took me by surprise as I don't ever recall seeing such a concentration of these types.

I wonder why that is

The funny thing is I moved to board games and away from video games and TV because they were awash with this shit.


It's true; you can't give any ground to these people as they'll just spread like the AIDS they are to the next area of culture.

What's funnier is how much energy he dedicated to hyping up and evangelizing people to play Netrunner in his videos on it, when I (and anyone else, to be honest), being experienced in playing collectible card games could see where that shit was heading. Not a surprise he burnt out on competitive card gaming.

I have Widow's Walk and it came out before Trump.
Also fuck you for implying the scenarios in this game are shit, it's the most replayable board game ever.
Should I flip through the mission book for the Make America Disintigrate Again scenario?

I made a thread about it the day it came out on table top simulator, old news.

I won't play your game unless it features an actual game system that incorporates giant tits and dickgirls into the game mechanics. I'm also a whale when I really get into a game.

related side note just to prove I'm not shitting on OP for no reason:
The new edition of Paranoia is littered with SJW newspeak which I find very ironic since it's about living under an authoritarian computer dictatorship. You're encouraged not to misgender clones and such...when anyone familiar with Paranoia knows sex doesn't exist and gender roles aren't a thing. Your genitals are blurred out and you're on hormone suppressants constantly. So there is some truth to that.

Is she a merchant? Does she promise a dozen items and give you 4?

Games that have SJW influence get the boot. I literally added this game to my cart, but when I found out it had SJW all over it I dumped it. I think I will pick up the baldurs gate version since from what I understand it's being made by another team and they fix a lot of the issues of the original game.

From my experience people who are into DnD and "occult" shit tend to be anti-thiest because of how religious groups went after them in the 70's. Basically they got pushed to the left and then banded together with other groups that were marginalized by the right. Enemy of my enemy is my friend logic.

>wife's son

Kek almost got me.

Yes, I'm aware of them infecting shit in the video game world. I was shocked they jumped to the boardgame world as well

Honest question, but did you ever try to visit that bar with your mates while wearing a MAGA cap and try to play games there? You can gauge how much of a liberal those people are by how they react to that. You could have even gone solo with the MAGA cap and tried to see if you can join in their games or not (if it was that kind of open gaming bar)

>so now, people who buy this end up with a shit quality scenario

To be fair, that describes about 75% of the scenarios in Betrayal, especially in the expansions. The game basically boils down to hoping you get whichever side is the cakewalk for this haunt.

Come on man, you can't expect everyone to know 100% of all news all the time. Gimme a break

>the baldurs gate version since from what I understand it's being made by another team
>being made by another team
>another team
OMG I fucking hope so

>evil spirits
>ITS ALL TRUMPFGHS FAULT!!!

Liberal genocide now, and I mean now.

Is it in playtesting yet?

>Make America Disintigrate Again scenario totally has nothing to do with Trump guys!
>A scenario that completely parodies Trump's campaign tagline has nothing to do with him, I swear!
Yes goy, it's just a (((coincidence))). He he he...

...

Nah work stole me away but I make sure to make adjustments every week. I'll be posting on /tg/ when it's ready, but it's card-based. Condensing it down to a 4-player game that could actually sell for $40 or under and not clutter the place was Hell, I lost a lot of features I liked but made up for it with other ideas.

Perfect is the enemy of pretty good, and all that

Found this from last year kek

warosu.org/tg/thread/46830318

I just didnt' believe they'd write that so long ago. I flipped through and it's there, written by Zoe Quinn xirself.
Yeah it has a Lich running for president and creating a suffering based economy and blowing up the son so the earth can fly into the heart of a dark cosmic entity.
Also it implies Hillary is just is bad if you win and doesn't specifically name Trump as the Lich.
>However, your peace of mind quickly vanishes as soon as you see their American flag lapel pin pulse with a familiar darkness...

4 player game sounds already like a dealbreaker for me. or is that optional? card games should always focus on 2 players imho.

And if your design is better suited to more cards you could always consider a digital version. digital card games are still pretty popular. and a game with actual complexity is still sorely needed

>but it's card-based
>upcoming LCG has to be card-based
Wow user you're fucking amazing!!!

[spoiler]just kidding, but really why would you need to mention it's card-based when you already said that it's an LCG?[/spoiler]

But like I was saying in the OP, the scenario IS connected to politics, specifically that previous presidential race. I don't know why you honestly convinced yourself such a blatantly titled scenario wasn't connected at all

It's absolutely optional. The idea is a D&D-style of play using cards. It's to for all the casual players + experienced players who lack time. Having a visual aid offers some cool utility for effects too, like the Ward card. Drop it on top of a card that you or an ally has and that card can't be used by anyone, including monsters or NPCs. Block people from teleporting away, block a dragon's firebreath, block someone from scrying you while you sneak in, etc.

Holy fuck just realized beamdog fucked the pooch hiring an SJW writer on the baldurs gate dragonspear expansion.

If I wasn't retarded I wouldn't be making this.

I didn't believe it was in the book. I thought it came out before the lefties were so salty.
That being said it's clearly only a playful jab at Trump and Hillary both and not nearly as bad as some of the shit forced on us in other games.
For example the "evil Lich running for President" to a Trump supporter would be Hillary Clinton, whereas a Clinton supporter would think of Trump. So it's all right in my book.

I'm a bit out of the loop, what happened with the Netrunner game?

The ultra-jew in charge of this game. He's also Paizo's bitchboy and had a mini-breakdown when people demanded to see the rules for apocrypha when the kickstarter first went up.

Play mah games goyim

Yea there were a ton of threads on Sup Forums and probably alot of posts on /vg/ about it. It's really shitty when these "writers" can separate their feelings and politics from their output

Have you tried shopping around for publishers? How long have you been working on this?

Dude. DUDE. The fact that the fucking scenario is called "Make America Disintegrate Again", clearly means that evil Lich running for President is meant to be no one other than Trump. STOP deluding yourself.

Just remember to name the Jew when the push to restart the draft and send all the white males to war is made.

First the SJW's ruin entertainment in an attempt to get white males to get out of the house. Once those white males start getting fit, the Jew masters will push for the draft to come back so they can get them die. Then all the brown males divvy up the white women and the Jew doesn't feel so fucking ugly compared to all the mulattos.

>mini-breakdown when people demanded to see the rules for apocrypha when the kickstarter first went up.
Why would he have a breakdown for a simple question like that?

The title of the story does hint that it's Trump but if you read the actual scenario it never mentions anything related to Trump or his policies or supporters even other than that they're evil.
It's actually kind of clever for a worthless SJW because depending on who's playing they'll imagine a different Lich. Plus it encourages the villain to talk like the Lich, which probably would be fun for people even if it's anti-Trump.
This is not nearly as bad as what they did to Paranoia with their "male-identifying persons" bullshit

Because he's a fucking mental schizo jew. He's always a total weirdo at gencon too and creeps out the female interviewers.

You can see his kitchen on some youtube video and it looks like he and his wife I think live in squalor.

>Why would a company allow complete strangers to make a scenario?
Because Zoe sucked their dicks. That's how she operates.

Are you telling me I can get free blowjobs if I started my own company? Hmmm...

There's 50 scenarios in teh expansion. Another 50 or so in the base game. In the expansion at least almost every scenario is written by a new person.
Make America Disintigrate is one of them.
I think they just got whoever was willing to write them to write them for a small amount of money/free.
Minimal dick sucking was involved here, most likely.

>Because he's a fucking mental schizo jew. He's always a total weirdo at gencon too and creeps out the female interviewers.
>You can see his kitchen on some youtube video and it looks like he and his wife I think live in squalor.
Uhhh...wow. Those aren't good signs (if true or there's no alternate harmless explanation for such circumstances).

yeah sadly dragonspear turned out to be a euphemism for shoving tranny cock in your face and then lecturing you for misgendering the paladin.

the fact that the character chooses to be a fucking tranny in a world where gender switching rings and girdles (poor Edwin) are the most common magical items speaks volumes about its mental state. sadly I do not believe the writers intended to make a cleaver statement, they were just to retarded to even realize what they are doing.

>Have you tried shopping around for publishers? How long have you been working on this?
Only a couple months but it's my 3rd try or so in making something like this, so I've got the jyst. I gave myself a hard deadline of Halloween to have a physical set of cards for playtesting, and I do have one publisher in mind, I know a guy higher up in Laywaste Games so I'd run it by them, they only have one major product right now so it's got promise, but if they fall through I'd venture out to others. Can't let one pitfall be a deal breaker.

Is that supposed to be her? Because it looks nothing like her.

What is it with feminists and men that won't fuck them? These SJWs claim to hate Trump but won't talk about anything else. Is it just sexual frustration that they'll never have an alpha so they're just lashing out?

sounds interesting. but very similar to the Pathfinder Card game if I am getting the right picture.

Can you murder him?

No one would buy the game if they accurately used her actual face

Well, looks like you have a plan. Wish you well on your endeavor. Make the art megasexual like Kingdom Death. I guarantee you will sell a ton of copies and they'll be worth alot in the future even just as collector's items

i hate faggots who try to force politics into everything

to be fair she did have sex at least twice.
she even put the sextape online to proof it. Roleplaying her "rape"

These bitches won't go away until companies learn that hiring the likes of them will hurt profits. Thank you for raising awareness, OP. I hope this ripples into conversations on other, related sites.

not sure, I did not buy the game. I already boycotted Beamdog before it came out. And when I read up on all this trash it didn't really change my mind.

It's funny, but if you look closely at the pic, I think they actually listed their names right there on the left section of the front cover (correct me if I'm wrong), as if that would help sell more copies.

top analogy user

i dont do board games but if i ever see your product on a shelf user ill buy it knowing its helping a polack

This happened with comic books too. You can't infect a niche market then tell the people in that niche to fuck themselves.

Thanks user, I'll make at the least a few sexual ones, for you guys.

She self identifies as a tanned attractive girl with purple eyes that the boys from her high school actually liked.

If you think any "nerd" hobbies are safe you're sadly mistaken, board games, tabletop games, video games, anime, etc
Maybe that's a good thing though, they're doing nothing but creating more and more pissed off white men.

Mattress girl was an autistic weirdo with a gross chest and face, who would claim to love guys after meeting them once.

Some alpha fucked her and explained to her it was just 'casual' and had zero intention of dating her. While she claimed to also be okay with a casual relationship she kept saying she loved him over and over again and messaging him daily.

He responded by only allowing her to see him, come to parties if she brought along other girls for him and his friends.... which she actually did.

Until she finally 'stood up' for herself by making up false rape allegations.

This is why you don't put yourself inside crazy. He had proof he was innocent, and was found innocent by the university and the police department but his life was still ruined.

>Yes, I'm aware of them infecting shit in the video game world. I was shocked they jumped to the boardgame world as well
They are aware of the learning potential in games. The effects of such a medium, just like any other, have dramatic results on social behaviors. They aggressively seek control just as they did television, music, and publications to further their agendas. The solution was touched on by gamergate before it's co-opt: homebrews.

She looks like a kike.

Let me guess....

>Lead Designer vetted for them since they were friends of his
They fucked him.

>a few sexual ones
>a few
Do you want to be successful or not? Hell, you could put a girl with shitting dicknipples on the cover and people would buy your game JUST FOR THAT ALONE. Because you had the guts to release a game with a shitting dicknipples girl on the fucking cover. The fact that there's an actual great game inside would just be a super bonus.

Anyway, yea go work on your game and good luck

Waiting Zoe Quinn make PC etale cohomology.

This is the guy you say they fucked

It's Zoe fucking Quinn user, she does not fuck people for their looks, she fucks them for favors. GamerGate was literally about that exact person fucking 5 ugly game journalists for good reviews.

If ever someone fucked someone for favors, it was this exact scenario.

Its just weird, cuz I didn't assume these types would be I to boardgames. I figured boardgames arnt very mainstream and so it would left to people who arnt normies. I would have imagined a bunch of dads and more rightwing nerdy types.

Lol no I didn't try that. Its in LA and frankly its at the state where I would be endangering myself from spics and negroids if I wore that stuff; not worth getting jumped by feral shitskins for a hat. But me and mybfroends didn't fit in there and all of us are right wing with a few of us being former marines. Its funny how withdrawn they become in the precense of even a little masculinity. But Idk maybe I'm imagining things

>Its funny how withdrawn they become in the precense of even a little masculinity.
To be honest, alot of them were probably bullied as kids and adopted that as a defense mechanism to avoid any potential conflict in life, even as adults.

Also, you could have just kept the cap folded in your pocket or something and worn it only inside. But I'm just saying.

Because our society runs on both meritocratic capitalism but also loose associations of cronies that help each other out. The more mercilessly meritocratic we get, the less you will hear about the Sarkeesians if the world.

Armenian, actually.

actually have that expansion, its okay but some of the haunts are fucking walls of text. Its a nightmare if you are trying to introduce a person to the game, they become the traitor and they are bombarded by Two pages of things he has to keep track of.

...

Good luck user, hope the best for your venture!

I believe this game was out before Trump was elected. There is a copy of it at the gameshop where I play D&D. I'll check the back.

Do be aware, though, that FFG has some big products in the works, including a Legend of the Five Rings LCG (they bought the rights from AEG about a year ago). So they're not completely out, but their business model is hurting.

If I may ask, do you work for a publishing company, or are you making a game in your spare time that you may eventually sell?

>this will never happen to 40k
feels good

for now

How bad is netrunner? Been interested but not if they shoved a bunch of shit into it.

Any other good games?
