    Okay but normies don’t play Paradox either, so what gives? I don’t want to play “dwarf fortress” or some fuckin “blowjob factory 2: electrification” or whatever it is channers consider weird, but I like playing “The Fire Rises” for HOI4 and I can’t exactly talk to Jock Josh and his friend who’s into spider man and DND about “yoo in the game you can kill penguinz0 as atomwaffen division isn’t that crazy”.

    Honestly nothing ever has been more of a disappointment to me than anyone who plays Civ or tabletops of any kind, they always have absolutely no sense of fun and they’re always extreme turbonormies, especially if they’re fantasy people, good lord I’m sure there’s lots of good fantasy media out there and I’ve enjoyed plenty myself (Berserk), but it either attracts the most simpletons or being into it turns you into a simpleton over time or something idk. They only know their dumbass DND, no they won’t play something actually cool like Cyberpunk Red, no they won’t help me try to DM it, they only like their DND and that’s it, DND that, or DNDeezNuts this, it’s aaaaaaagh.

      In case you also wonder like op why no one likes you, it’s probably the elite snobbery and superiority complex.

      I play tabletop, paradox games, dwarf fortress and a lot of other stuff. I also play with lego and have played Warhammer etc, both fantasy and 40k and other miniature games.

      I don’t buy or play a lot of AAA games if any at all. Large companies can fuck off.

      What am I? An anomaly? :D
