Here I was getting ready with a "Want some candy" joke, instead the van is filled with sex, drugs and rock´n´roll.

That's a very brutal game:

For first-time gamers, having some premade characters they can pick from overcomes this problem. Of course they miss out on one of the great things about rpgs that first time, but it means getting to the actual playing faster. Once they've played the game, they might also have an easier time...

The five very nice gentlemen is going to give the little girl a very good time!

It's a joke on this picture:

The video would also have fit right in on the "if player characters never die" thread.

It was a joke, in response to the post about how the Planet of the Apes game would revitalize D6. I could have posted it in the Fight Like Apes thread, but I choose not to. Not interested in Planet of the Apes, because I've never been a fan of the movies old or new. I own Terra Primate but have...

Exactly this. Non-lethal games also misses out on the heroic deaths, we often see in fiction. Stuff like Sturm's death in Dragonlance Chronicles or Boromir's in Lord of the RIngs. As a player, I've had two characters have such a death. One time, both I and my character knew our actions would...
