>Gamers want escapism >But playing a non humans isn't the right type of "escapism" >"good luck being killed on sight bro xd! why is this so common I just want to play something not human looking for once...
>>2922 Alien morphology makes it hard for newbie DMs to deal with the various extra abilities and needs you may have, thus classic humanoid shapes are preferred since most DMs are newbies/shit.
Please just talk to your DM. You can suggest that he put the campaign in a more fantastical setting where extravagant creatures aren't killed on sight.
>>2956 mostly Americans >>2966 most of these dms are closed minded and nothing like how they're depicted as lol
>>2922 Run a game for your friends that isn't like this. Simple solution. People run what they feel like they can invest in, maybe they can't invest in a buncha quirky alien chunguses, maybe they do. Perhaps instead of having an adversarial relationship with people, you accept the premise that you are coming to play a game together and have fun together.
>>2922 I feel this pain. I envy people who feel 'at home' in their body.
>>3023 He could offer to be the DM but then he wouldn't get to be the snakeboi himself. Unless he self inserts as a DMPC.
>>2922 Racism is a thing, especially if you look like a monster race. Get a high diplomacy skill so you can talk your way out of difficulties and see if you can dress in a way that is less likely to engender hostilities.
>>3643 Ok faggot. Is this just a tranny thread?
>>2922 How about YOU run a game with non-human(oid) races as playable? I swear to god, there's nothing more annoying than a player jumping into a game asking for speciul shit. Sure, your average GM may be a basic bitch but at least isn't an entitled bitch.
>>3643 Lose weight.
