Yeah I’m 100% not giving WOTC money. Fuck them. I wonder how easy it is to pick up Pathfinder

Yeah that’s 100% going to be gifted to him and his social group for xmas due to the recommendations in this thread

I’m not careful with how I word my opinions. The internet is a cesspit, I’m not going to stay clean. I only ever get banned by trump lovers. They’re so fragile… it’s kind of pathetic.

They’ve taken over moderation too. I criticized a local restaurant that got passed down from father to son, and got banned. I did call the son a trump loving shitstain so that might’ve had something to do with it.

I’d say the main hangup with any tabletop game is availability. My family is already planning to do dnd sessions at home.

I hope they do the redacting in pdf form again so we can just delete the rectangles

That’s 100% the plan. The robloxocalypse occured as a joint venture between myself and the other parents.

Yeah I love Terraria. I’ll see if I can get his friends interested in it too. Heck I’ll buy them all copies for xmas.

Why do you think I am not trying to be the best parent? Do you know my child? No? Then you don’t know what is best for them. In this case, it is the best. Roblox is garbage tier games on a platform made by exploitation of children for the exploitation of children. Just because I am man enough to call that out and make the tough decisions doesn’t mean people need to personally attack me for it. Dangers to our society evolve - it’s like slapping a crack pipe out of the hand of a family member… just digitally.

WetBeardHairs OP , 6 months ago to gaming in I banned my kid from Roblox.... what next?

I might as well just hold the crackpipe for him and light it

WetBeardHairs OP , 6 months ago to gaming in I banned my kid from Roblox.... what next?

Yeah that’s why I let my kid do specific chores to earn money for mtx. So he has his dripfeed to support whatever costumes or other mtx he sees - but not enough to get truly addicted. Plus I have been very forward with him that the money he spends on mtx is literally worthless the moment he buys it - so I give him normal allowance at a higher rate than his small mtx earnings. My goal is to balance it out so he can have non-standard skins and not feel made fun of for it, but also not grow psychologically dependent on them like some kids.

Beyond All Reason

That game looks awesome. I need to check it out.

Personally I have played dnd with those virtual tabletops and… they’re pretty bad. You spend about 3x as much time fiddling with it than you do playing. Plus you then get distracted by electronics when you should be getting into your character.
