"Why are you playing a female character then?" "Why are we playing any of these characters!? I'm also not a half-orc in real life but that hasn't bothered anyone so far."

[@TheMightyBattleSquid]

You just want to play a half orc so you can court orcs, halflings (ha because it's a half-orc, get it?), and everything in between OBVIOUSLY. /s

[@Rabijeel]

Yeah, pisses me off, too. Got so many good Backgounds/Chars where it just would not fit for them to be male. And everytime you get the same Bullshit females get plus the "You are a Man, so you asked fort it by playing a female Char!". NO I DON'T! Neither did any of the Women "dressing too sexy". Player Gender does not matter at all, else it is bad Meatgaming or simply "bad" Roleplaying.

[@thatoneVoidDemon]

Yeah sometimes one gender just fits better for another. Like I'm a girl and I played a male half-orc druid for a while, and being a guy just kinda fit more for him and his personality. Just in the same way that my female dwarf cleric works a lot better as a girl, despite how tomboyish she is it'd still be weird if she was a dude instead, and works more thematically.

... why does a male playing female characters mean they HAVE to be trans or want to be flirted at aggressively? I'm a guy who likes playing girl characters more often than not, literally just because i think its fun to mix it up like that and I think woman heroes are awesome.

[@kyledayton7829]

Yeah Im male and I play female characters from time to time.

[@marcusreading3783]

I know. I made a female character I intend to use in a future game and even made her a Bard and literally blessed (or possibly cursed depending on how you look at it) with incredible looks, but I certainly dont intend to have her sleep with everyone and their donkey. I wanted to make a character with an interesting background and built in plothook and the result was her.

[@WASDLeftClick]

People don’t think like that in real life right? At least, I’ve never met someone who got weirded out by me having some characters who were women and I’ve yet to see one in a comment section. Surely that’s just something a few trolls say to get a rise out of people.

[@Grigeral]

I'm playing a female character at the moment, as I feel female is more fitting for a sorcerer/cleric of Auril. Don't know why, but I think it's because back in Baldurs Gate 2 (might've been IWD tbh which would make more sense) when you come across a cleric of Auril she was pretty badass and a hard fight so I kinda based it around that.

[@sarafontanini7051]

as a trans woman even I think that logic is faulty. also: even if they were trasn 1) it wasn't any of their business 2) not all transwomen wanna be hit on by random dudes, in fact I doubt msot women do either and 3)really? you couldn't think of ANYTHING to do with a female player character that had nothing to do with sex? you're a shitty DM in that case.

Preferences asside I find it mildly infuriating to have people trying to take direct control over another pc's direct feelings and perception. Yeah there are effects like that... but for that to happen I feel like the person demanding that from me must be respectable irl as well. Which was not really the case here for me. To hear that female characters ( _and therefore females in general?_ ) can only exist to be seduced by someone. . Im a straight man irl and I get it, yeah I get it. Not one of those SJW losers either. But this overly direct objectification of women and their complete denial of personality which might involve not wanting to f°ck like a horny rabbit, it really was irritiating. . And just because the DM was the DM, he would throw a GOD directly towards a mortal to have some cheap rpg-porn happen.

First story: I really, really hope that person was actually a kid. Because otherwise, this is just painful. I DM for a table of kids sometimes, I know how hard roleplaying can be when you're both a) new to it and b) too young to know what makes a character good or bad. The copying is annoying, but if this was actually a child they were playing with then there's at least hope that they'll get better in time. I'm sure most of us did some stupid shit like this the first time we sat down to play. I know I did. Second story: OOF. First off, that was a hell of a play from OP. "They call me The General?" Gold. And secondly, in my main group all of my players actually were women for a long time, until one of my guy friends joined. And he has made an impact already, done a lot of talking to important NPCs and carrying the load in several fights. But the difference is, my friend didn't invalidate the others - they still do a lot of important things. The guy's character can't sneak for shit, and one of the ladies is a rogue. He's got no strength, and the other two are Fighters. He's a magic user, they're not, so he isn't stepping on their toes there. At best, this DM is sacrificing fun for the sake of "realism" in his D&D game, which IMO is already pretty stupid considering the very nature of the game. And at worst - and I suspect most likely - he's just an asshole, whether he's trying to be or not. Third story: ... Yikes. That is all kinds of uncomfortable. I've never had an openly non-straight person at my table before, (although I've been a player at one where the DM is pansexual, but we sometimes forget that because she's seeing a guy right now) but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say this is *not* how this person wanted to come out. Shame on their "friends" for making them feel like this. D&D is supposed to be an escape, and you ruined that for them. And before some incel comments on how those friends are right, (they're not) I'd like to invite you to read a couple of these links first so you can at least pretend to sound educated as you spout your bullshit. You might not inherently trust some of these sources, but trust me - if you honestly believe that asexuality isn't real, or is a political thing, then I can guarantee that they're at the very least better informed than you.

​@@destroyerinazuma96 Yes, yes they can. There are at least two orientations, sexual and romantic. For most people they either overlap completely or they think they do, however, some people are asexual and alloromantic (allo is the opposite of a, including heteromantic, biromantic, homoromantic and more), and some people are aromantic and allosexual (allosexual, like alloromantic, includes all sexual orientations that are not on the ace spectrum), and finally some people are aromantic and asexual. Also, just to make sure you know, aromantic and asexual people are both capable of platonic non-romantic love. I wish that went without saying, but not all people understand that.

I now want to design an infernal dungeon, where the party is accompanird by an NPC and "the solution" to each puzzle is something sexual but each time the party figures out what the intended solution, the NPC gets outraged at the unknown builders of the dungeon and "breaks" the puzzle, getting through some other way, so the players never have to actually engage the sexual solution. Example: a teleportation needle that when you prick yourself your body, but none of your gear, is teleported I to the next room which can be seen behind a wall of clear quartz. But when they figure that out the NPC gets infuriated and casts shatter on the quartz wall, allowing them to pass without it. An in world dungeon self-titled "The Dungeon of Lust."

I don’t understand bringing any kind of sexual encounters into Dnd to be honest. It kinda just brings the story to a stop.

Yeah I mean a part of D&D is how well you gel with the group. I usually take some of these stories with a grain of salt. I'm not saying the Ace Fella is a sensitive snowflake and I'm not saying the table was all douchebags. Mostly cause I wasn't there. See in my group we have all kinds of people, who I am happy I became fast friends with. I'm a the only Christian in my group and I don't get mad at the religious jokes. I have a great sense of humor and I'm not being singled out. We literally make jokes about everyone. One of my friends is a lesbian, which will come in handy later. She is one of the sassiest ones. Well I've had a rough year, my brother died and we almost got wrongfully evicted a few times. So I figured I'll ask them to let another friend(Let's say Newbie) of mine into the group, she really loved the stories about our shenanigans and wanted in. plus I'd she can be a substitute healer while I deal with IRL stull. I figured it was a sure win, so I vouched for her. I gave them my word I was wrong... Newbie only showed up to 2 sessions and one day in the server she posted she MIGHT make it to a session. My lesbian friend made a really tame and light joke about her not showing up and the Newbie friend I let it taken it VERY personally. It sparked this horrible fight that so bad that the friend who got me into this group had to come get me (Keep in mind I was worried that our shitty land lord was gonna throw my family out illegally so I was looking up law stuff and looking for a lawyer). I was appalled at Newbie's behavior. Newbie says she's in the right cause she shouldn't being any sass cause she "Has a rough patch she's working through and doesn't need this negativity!" I won't even go into what she was going through cause it stupidity on her part and D&D would've helped her distracted herself from it. She also tried to claim my lesbian friend was phobic of her sexuality being bisexual. Needless to say Newbie friend left the group. I felt like shit for her attacking my friend, so I was super apologetic to her. I'm still pissed that I vouched for newbie and she utterly wasted it making my word look bad. Thankfully my D&D group is chill and they understand it's not my fault and I'm still friends with newbie and I do regularly give her shit about it. Also our landlord stopped his shit so we're good there for now lol The moral of the story I learned is for a group to work you need to make sure everyone gels well together.

7 Deadly Sins guy probably sounds like he's on the spectrum. 1. Childish outbursts and inability to focus on one character. 2. Lack of truly creative thinking and having to heavily reference if not straight up rip creative ideas 3. Lack of planning ahead. 4. Getting angry and argumentative when his plans don't go his way. My son is autistic, and introducing him to DND went very much this way for a while. It's been 3 years working with him in order to get him to the point where he's "almost" ready to really join in one of our games. In the past we had to; simplify his character builds. He excells at playing characters that are basically one-trick-ponies with simple backstories. We also tried to make plots about his character so that he felt central to the plot and engaged. But he also doesn't have to make any crucial decisions for the party. As with anything that requires social interaction, people on the spectrum will require different levels of patience and compromise and that won't always fit with every group. If you're willing to host someone like this, try to be understanding that they may take a LOT of effort to get to the point where other players are capable of roleplaying or thinking of truly original ideas, or some of their ideas might be a little too outlandish. (in one of our games, his fighter used his handle animal skill and a portion of his rations to tame a cockatrice... The same cockatrice that previously petrified my Drow cleric, who basically acted as a heal bot, and a voice of reason while his uncle acted as the DM for us.) I mean, there's always the chance that he was just some creepo weeb, that happens a lot, too, but I just felt like I recognized some of the tell tale signs, and wanted to write this up.

He apparently took this as me saying I just couldn't bring myself to because I'm introverted. So next week he then FORCED the npc on my pc, and I proceeded to mentally breakdown.

[@destroyerinazuma96]

And I find it funny when so many other "anime" systems already exist. Anima, Double Cross, Ryutama, Maid Rpg, that one magical girl dark rpg..

[@PikaPenny17]

@@destroyerinazuma96 Is there another magical girl dark rpg other than the World of Darkness fan stuff? If so, I haven't heard of it.

Ah yes, the universal LGBT+ experience: allocishet people acting like you're bringing politics into something by refusing to bow for bigotry

[@Vearru]

That was such a frustrating thing. I simply can’t comprehend allos especially those who are intentionally ignorant.

what is allocishet?

Hetero here who does not give a fck about other people orientations, but calls them out of trying to put it into dragon hunting demon fighting game :D sex does not belong into ttrpg if not specifically told before head

[@rob3at896]

@@histkontext Understandable. But in this story it is the heteros who start putting sex in the game, aren't they?

[@FoxGoddess]

To those who will/already have flamed about Seven Deadly Sins being called "Mediocre" a) it is his opinion, and b) not everyone enjoys the same anime, so what is mediocre to some isn't to others. As such, don't try to justify the anime to Lord Crab or others, because if they don't like it or didn't enjoy it, some random on the internet yelling about it certainly won't change their mind.

Amen to that. I might disagree with him, but he's well within his rights to think whatever he pleases about whatever series he pleases. People having different tastes is part of life.

As someone who identifies as ace, that last story was painful. I feel for OP. You're valid and there are others out here like you.

[@vijayanand6650]

Even though it's horrible in context, the delivery of the line "He do be spittin facts doe" was perfect

[@Ahrpigi]

"Ah yes, the two genders; Straight, and Political." Technically should be sexualities, but pure golden truth nonetheless.

[@gokuxsephiroth4505]

Lmao asexual "bringing LGBT issues" into the game- Asexuals are literally the least trouble. Like *any* sexuality is trickier to handle than asexuality- they're just good as they are. Tbh, I have asexual friends and sometimes I'm low key jealous I'm such a sexual person.

[@Vearru]

Yeah I pity you allos. To be slaves to sexual desire seems like such a cruel fate and a sad life indeed. (Also thank you for your comment. I just always love being over dramatic)

[@squidcultist0022]

Fellas, is It political to not be sexuality attracted to someone?

[@pyroboss1013]

I have an idea, I play a character that wants to be the most evil ever by killing all the other bad guys so technically he’s the baddest by being the last one. Eh?

[@Mericlen]

Yo Critcrab. Just wanted to say that i found your videos pretty recently and have not been able to get enough of them. Keep up the good work!

[@Mathee]

Hope Ace OP found a DnD group that respects his sexuality. I'm aro-ace myself, and I remember how happy I felt when I saw my DM post ace-positivity on her tumblr^^ Unfortunately, there are people who think anything that isn't straight is "political", but the only reason why LGTBQ+ is considered political, is because people who are against us made it political by denying us our rights

[@Ashtari]

Yeah having a dm who respects that is a good thing. When I told my dm, they quickly asked what was my personal lines were for relationships and backstories. My dm's never crossed the line and even made a special effort to ask if something was okay to do if they knew some bit of the story would come close to the line. But it all comes down to communication and dm's should do this with every player, regardless of sex, or sexual orientation.

[@minnion2871]

Well I don't think that's the only reasion.... (Part of it is some people take it too far by trying to use LGTBQ+ Labels as a political shield to defend themselves from criticism.... and the whole thing ended up being associated with people that persecute anyone who doesn't like their work or disagrees with them on how many genders there are, or what genders even are as being some stripe of bigot....) The confusion on gender is understandable since I still don't think there is a consensus on what the word even actually means.... Is it another word for sex? Another word for name? Sexual orientation? Social classes? All of the above? None of the above? Heck it's hard to even discuss what it means without being called a bigot....

[@Sophia-vk5bq]

Why?! Seven Deadly Sins wasn't even that good. At least make it Dragon Ball.

Eyy frankly both aren’t that well written but I gotta agree that at least a Goku Expy you could at least play around with the whole blood knight aspect of having a merciless hero character who just wants to fight Also oath of glory I guess could work with the above take

I think I stumbled upon this post in the wild at some point. Nice to finally see you cover it.

[@machspeed5025]

I found and subscribed to Critcrab a few weeks ago and, as I do with every channel I sub to, I've gone through and watched all previous videos. All I got to say is, you are doing a fantastic job man. Loving the vids and love how much you've improved since your early stuff. Keep up the great work!

[@CritCrab]

Thank you so much! I love when people notice how hard I've worked to improve the quality of videos on this channel ❤️
