He's saying we are suddenly pro-war by conflating "we should stop going to war" with "we should stop foreign countries going to war".

It's not contradictory to be anti-war, but also think "Not our war, not our problem".

Must have been verbal; that's a lot to assume it can read.

Guys, I've got a great idea! Y'see, all the runaway hits have been small and/or passionate projects that did something new or explored it in an interesting way. So, what we're gonna do is... Focus test and run everything by committee to create the safest, most generic and least offensive content that was popular 3 years ago.

Furthermore, if we alienate our entire audience, I believe we could quintuple our profits by pandering to the pedo-communists with no money or interest in our product.

All communists look at what Stalin did and somehow think they would be Stalin and not against the wall with the other useful idiots.

I also wouldn't discount them wanting to fuck dead babies as well.

I think the idea of the 2014 rule isn't that anything before then isn't pozzed, but rather anything after is so likely to be a lost cause as to not warrant further investigation.

Haven’t I seen before that they love to file lawsuits

You might be on to something.

I participated in a session or 2 and been on the periphery of a few, but it can literally take all day just to roll characters- especially if you're new. I think people tend to bring their own to save on time, but it can take weeks or months of regular, lengthy meetups to get through a single campaign. Even assuming life doesn't get in the way, I don't have the patience for it.

The Associated Press does not typically identify people who say they have been victims of sexual assault unless they come forward publicly.

Bauer is literally the victim, but they won't identify the perpetrator.

I fucking hate journalists [not enough, but I can only try].

why there is a constant need for some central authority to regularly distribute a rulebook

I don't play myself, but a couple reasons off the top of my head:

  1. Consistency- imagine if you had to go over the entire rule set every time you join a new group.
  2. Laziness- most people don't want to spend hours, days, years developing speadsheets for their own OC.

Did the rules of the previous game just not work?

  1. Balancing- it's practically impossible to fine tune a game perfectly before public feedback. Even then, you'll never please everyone, but that's what home-brewed rules are for.
  2. Patches- I doubt they exhausted all creativity in existence before the 1st release, so new races, spells, actions or whatever you can imagine might get added in later versions.

I've heard the rule books come with their own scenarios/lore etc that could make it easier for new DM's or players to get used to. Some people might even buy them for the art.

What surprises me isn't how popular it is, but rather how few competitors there are. I've heard of Pathfinder, and that's about it.

He already said journalists and male feminists; no need to repeat it a 2nd time.
