What is with these fucking content creators that are like, "oh, I think I get what he's saying, but" shit. "I know diversity is important but", "there needs to be more blacks at the gaming table but." Have some fucking balls and call him a self hating white cuck for fucks sake. Is it really that hard? Who cares if "blacks are at the gaming table." Blacks can buy their own gaming table- but they won't. Your product doesn't appeal to the vast majority of blacks; stop being a self hating racist and blaming your actual customers.

There's nothing stopping women from going to their local gaming store, buying some books, and starting up a campaign. Yet, mysteriously, they don't.

Yeah because their 4th grade teacher told them that gaming is only for boys. /s

four are two couples. And one guy there has been hitting on her for quite awhile but she's only just come out of another relationship. They are nerds. They spend half the time 3d printing miniatures.

I did, when I found a game that spoke to me. But trying to get other females into it just wasn't going to happen (and most males I knew at the time didn't get it, either.) Though one of my group was an older woman, who also worked in the store I shopped at.

Exactly. I always hated the “we need more…. In the hobby” mentality. If they want to play they will find a way. I saw this with Star Wars and comics with them pushing more women in the hobby.

I always that mentality was because of greed- a.k.a. we need more women to spend their money on our products that usually appeal only to men. Corporate avarice using feigned morality to increase profits.

True. On one hand, trying to expand your customer base is fine but when you crap on your audience or when you see certain groups aren’t interested for the most part but you still market to that group why keep at it

How about asking those demographics why they are or aren't interested, and ask them what they might like to see as an addition to things (rather than altering or taking away what's already there.) When it comes to tabletop gaming, a lot of people just can't grasp the concept, even when presented as "collective storytelling".

Good idea but like you said collective storytelling may not appeal to everyone. When I played it and some similar games it took me a while to really get into it.

The bottom line is, not everything is for everybody, plain and simple. Like downhill skiing.

And I don’t get why companies struggle to understand. Like with comic books. Generally speaking women aren’t as into them as men are. That is fine. But they refuse to accept that. Also reminds me when people say “not everything has to have white people” or “not everyone is straight” I just say that that saying goes across the boards and noticing a massive overrepresentation doesn’t make you a bad person.

But you nailed it. Everything doesn’t have to include everything

There is synergy between infinite growth capitalism and anti-white cultural Marxism. The executives are desperate to grow profits and collect exorbitant bonuses, and the leftist middle managers have the “perfect” solution: “broaden your appeal” by radically altering your product to capture untapped markets full of people who don’t actually like it.

Of course, the problem from the point of view of the anti-white cultural Marxist isn’t suboptimal profits. Their problem is that white peoples exist and enjoy something. So carpeting and destroying that thing is the actual goal. They accomplish this goal by duping stupid executives into sabotaging the product for “broader appeal”.

He's anti-White.

Wizards of the Coast / Hasbro are anti-White.

They exist within a social and legal framework that is anti-White.

It's far more clear and accurate to identify this as anti-White hatred.

Ahh, I'm sure all the white women and the bodies of color will pick up the slack after they finally got rid of all these evil white men that have conspired for millenia to keep these poor minorities out of the hobby.

Anytime now ... anytime ... please?

You could always find women or minorities who play D&D. But this person seems upset because a lot of white males enjoy it

I am aware

But this person seems upset because a lot of white makes enjoy it

I actually believe he got high on his own farts and really thinks that white men keep loads of people from D&D. Can happen if you surround yourself with shrieking feminists (that are actually upset that white men enjoy something)

Makes sense. They love to have some feminist tell a sob story about how she wasn’t welcome to play D&D or get into another hobby. But this is like a rite of passage for them to attack their white male customers and at some point you would think that they would stop believing the idea that evil white males are keeping people out of hobbies but I’m continuously proven wrong

Even if white people were a minority of players it would still not be morally acceptable, now is both immoral and dumb.

He's trying, apparently by absolutely demolishing D&D with himself still inside.

Speaking on a podcast, WotC Executive Producer Kyle Brink says white men can't leave soon enough."

Haven't they literally been pushing "DND is for everyone?"

I switched to the storyteller system shortly after 5e came out, I will never go back. I've never played a system this good before. D&D doesn't even come close.
