Well, it's a good sart

why did Dungeons and Dragons and Magic cards become so extremely gay?

kek it is a fantasy world. i dont want to be represented.
i want to be a badass warrior that kills monsters and shit. not the fat guy i am in real life.

what do you mean

thats made so us incels can lern to empathize with and masturbate to cripples
hopefully become cripple ourselfs

Then add a Mercedes E-Class Sedan instead of horse and carriage.

is it me or is the goblin cripple faggot obviously black?
did he throw his basketball up on some vampire dukes castle roof or is he just breaking in?

be cleric

literally have spells that allow me to regenerate limbs from stumps

literally granted to me for free by my God

"No my son, you must learn to live and grow as you are with your disabilities. Only then can you truly love yourself. :^)"

traditional rpgs have always been pozzed, hasbro is a jewish corporation that purposefully uses woke drama for marketing on top of that

It is because it is retarded in a world where most ailments can be cured and you can literally bring people back to life.
Why would you spend a ton of gold on a magic wheelchair when you can just pay the local cleric to heal you?

Disabled representation

Cripples have no actual skills and need magic wheelchairs to help them

likely stabbed in the leg by a racist guardsman

yes thats clearly and obviously and evidently a black vagina

nigga, just use mend

People with disabilities would have rather have cool robot legs or something of the sort. Not wheelchairs.

What's stopping an opponent from circling behind you and just grabbing the back of your chair, completely stopping your movement? It wouldn't even be particularly hard. Hell, you could say when defending against it they had... disadvantage.

People enjoy virtue signaling and getting upset at things (even if it has no effect on them) since the modern internet is geared to reward such behavior.
I guess the option is nice but unless you run some sort of low fantasy setting where magic is uncommon and high level magic is rare otherwise it seems stupid why a person wouldn't get it fixed unless they were dirt poor, but a combat wheelchair implies they are an adventurer so not being able to afford it seems unlikely at least after a while.

Be BBEG

Put stairs in my castle

Cripple laughs, stating that their chair can magically float

Cast greater dispel magic on them when they're halfway up the staircase

Regenerate is a lvl 7 spell. Thats some high power shit very few people can actually cast and they can do so a very limited amount of times per day

its just intersectionality being retarded as usual

fetishize being a victim and powerless

try and get the legitimately disadvantaged to hitch their wagon to your movement

theyve been trying to do this for like a decade now and it never works

Who is the combat wheelchair designed for? Regular people won't play it and can't play it, because that's cultural appropriation, and real people in wheelchairs don't want to be reminded that they're handicapped in a fucking fantasy game.

the chair canonically has stronger magic that protects it from dispel

damn, she fights no pan? that's hot

It's so stupid to replicate something like a fucking wheelchair when they can have a cool steampunk spider walker or a magical floating chair or some shit. Wheelchairs make no sense if you're going on a fucking adventure.

So the chair is just a bullshit I Win button, because it's too easy to counter that it just protects against everything. Stupid.

Paizosis, our response???

Unless it's a deaf weirdo

"Hi little Timmy"

"You can be a cripple in fantasy just as you are in real life!"

"Aren't you happy?"

Social games are very susceptible to being pozzed, unlike real games (singleplayer)

No but seriously

Walk around them

Grab chair so they can't turn it

Have advantage since they lack lower body strength and you can use yours to resist them trying to move it

They have no way to defend themselves as you stab them in the head repeatedly since they can't get up

Nah bro, you're referring to extra reddit and their worst video :
youtu.be/ymUEPKTEQaQ?feature=shared
It's not the only bad take they have, but it's the most infamous one for sure...What were they thinking?

what level is permanent levitation, permanent invulnerability, etc?

The combat wheelchair doesn't have hit points

Legends say Big Rope might be behind all this. Their sale numbers increased by 41% since the introduction of this!

"You vill sit in ze chair, you vill be crippled and you vill be happy!"

The worst part is that they put so much mental gymnastics and such a thick padding around the obviously BS concept that using a wheelchair is pretty much the optimal way for everybody. Look up the details if you would like, it's ridiculous but expected of current day WoTC.

These are all adventures published during DnD 5e. If i am not mistaken, not a single one of them has a wheelchair dude in them.

Fake outrage

the same thing with liberals asking "who's going to pick your cotton once immigrants are gone?"

Orcs and elves.

Doesnt exist

The wheelchair thing is a third party thing, it's not officially from Wizards.

plenty of fantasy units just sit on a throne casting shit

"its bad when the throne moves...because it just is ok!!??!"

There is no way you can refute my fallacy btw

Why would it even be a WHEEL chair? Why not a hover chair? It's fucking magic. Wheels would get in the way.

How did this purely optional, barely used addition break peoples buck THIS

You said it yourself. They did nothing with it. It's only there for gay virtue signaling.

Representation

1. It's a fictional world. Videogames aren't reality.
2. Representation is narcissistic. Get over feeling like you need to see yourself everywhere and in everything since it reeks of insecurity.

so who made the combat wheelchairs

bro, clerics can pull your spirit back from the nether and stuff it back in your lifeless body then cast shit on you that makes all your wounds instantly close up and heal while regenerating any severed limbs

If you don't gatekeep now, it will be added because they think it's popular or agree with the virtue signal.

I'd play a wheelchair bound assassin with a heavy french accent whose goal it is to make his ancient hometown of Kwebecc independent from the rest of the kingdom. There would even be a whole group of wheelchair bound assassins with french accents.
Then again, they didn't need to include wheelchairs into DnD so I can LARP as some obscure reference of a book I once read.

nurse working in a brain injury rehab ward

spend my days changing pads and wiping shit from the asses of people who jumped in front of trains or got into car vs motorbike accidents

there is nothing "empowering" about having to roll over so i can put the sling under you and then hoist you into your wheelchair and put the restraint lap belt on you so that i can wheel you out to the dining hall for another hospital tray dinner that you will just shit out into your bed again for me to clean up.

some people use wheelchairs to get around, but it's not the wheelchairs that matter. it's the people. but these companies don't give a shit. there's a thousand things that they could do to actually help, but that costs money and, worse, requires an uncomfortable confrontation with people we'd rather warehouse.

that's what i think about this.

If you cannot make a character that stands for literally everything you fucking hate and make him somewhat sympathetic, you're a terrible roleplayer.

truke.png

What'd stop any enemy from walking around them and grabbing the chair so they can't move? It's not like the cripple has any lower body strength so they're at instant disadvantage.

how do i know, they never put one in their adventures

People who fetishes this shit should be forced to move around in a wheelchair for a week.

That guardsman who stopped being an adventurer because he took an arrow to the knee must feel really silly after seeing this.

What were they thinking?

"We look at monstrous, innately evil orcs, and see black people. That means you're a racist for not seeing it."

Orx are not different than you or me, biigot.

The bigger issue is that it’s presented as a permanent and socially acceptable thing instead of something closer to a cast or bandaid. Every character should always be very vocally saying and thinking “I can get by with this, but it is BAD and I need to fix my body” - then it would make sense in the setting.
It’s like if someone went around with a diaper on because they always had explosive diarrhea and when presented with the option of treatment they said “no I’m good, shitting myself is just as heckin valid”. It’s retarded.

They should make a twisted metal like game but it’s just dudes with crazy wheelchairs blowing eachother up

normal person in wheelchair because they won't accept a heal

stupid

person bound to a wheelchair because of a curse

or a race of slugs that moves faster in a wheelchair

slightly better

This is why I don't understand all the vitiligo options in new games. I have a freakish skin condition of my own and I wouldn't want to see it in a character creator because it's unsightly.

meanwhile in 40K

I'm okay with wheelchair characters as long as they're affected by the world.

The group encounters a dungeon with a staircase.

wheelchair bound character needs to be carried up the stairs or left behind.

if they're carried up the stairs, one party member has to pass a strength check at every flight.

if they fail a check, they drop the wheelchair bound player down the stairwell, and they tumble to the bottom.

if the party gets attacked on the stairwell, the player carrying the wheelchair character has to pass dex check or else they'll drop them there as well

"We'll just levitate them up the stairwell."

If you can levitate the player, why bother with a wheelchair at all? At that point, it's just about the aesthetics.

because levitate lasts only 10 minutes and eats a level 2 spellslot. Unless you are some high powered big shot, your spell slots are a limited resource

Be disabled druid

instead of giving yourself tree legs or something you get fucking wheels

The party would never take the wheelchair nigger along in the first place. That's why the faggots made the wheelchair super OP, to the point where you should use it even if you're not handicapped, simply because it has too many benefits in place.

Because it's a texture voronoi noise slider that can be coded in 5 minutes and it gives companies ESG/DEI points.

Wizard of the Coast be like:

Why do retards on this site have to bring up years old drama every day.

You either abandoned these people when this happened or you didn't. Either way why are you making it your personality.

I never understood this
Why would you roleplay as a character who still has disability?
If I was in wheelchair, my fantasy would be NOT being in a wheelchair

wildshape into a spider

ok so do i have one large wheelchair supporting my body or 8 rollerskates

dopamine hit by getting mad at the same age old culture war trigger topics.

Fantasy versions of a disability should be cooler than real life, like somebody with a wheelchair can basically have it turn into a exoskeleton with the wheels being like rollerskates they can move really fast with.

demoralization campaign / generating outrage and division

But i want to be in a wheelchair because im just such a god gamer i need the handicap(able)

Yeah, except that divine intervention exists and happens almost daily. Most of the original lore has healing at major cities because their god demands the charity. The problem wasn't even the fucking wheelchair. It is at least somewhat possible that a character could become permanently crippled from a curse and if they were a wizard, sorcerer or warlock, that shit isn't slowing you down much and it makes for some good flavor. The problem was Wheelchair accessible dungeons. As if the fucking Lich is going to make it so a crippled adventurer can get in to smash their phylactery. Oh, I'm sorry, Spirit Vessel

If I was in wheelchair, my fantasy would be NOT being in a wheelchair

there are blind/deaf people who create communities around their disabilities and demonize anything that tries to help them / cure them, i guess it might be similar to people in wheelchairs

Leftists are inherently escapists so they gravitate towards fantasy. The last decade saw a huge schism in general political philosophy and it broke them to not wanting to escape any more but to spread their mental hangups onto everything they touch

Smarter way to do it is one character carrying the cripple, another one carrying the wheelchair up.

Weird attempts to culturalize disabilities - it's 'accept yourself for who you are' taken to an obscene level, where people are encouraged not to better themselves, or hope for normality.
There are deaf people that consider attempts to cure their condition to be genocide, etc.

This wasn't made for cripples. This was made for liberals to post on Tweeter. The irony is that non-cripples are the only ones playing with the wheelchair.

divine intervention

need to be lvl 10 to do it (you are a big shot at this point)

small chance of actually being heard by your god

if your god hears you, cant do it again for 1 week

How is this "daily" in any way, shape or form to you?

Your attempt at ragebait is nice, But I will not be ragebaited.

phylactery. Oh, I'm sorry, Spirit Vessel

Did they change that too? Is phylactery too many syllables for the modern audience?

anon, you need to roll a d100 and roll 10 or below to actually succeed at divine intervention

It would depend on how many floors are in the dungeon. It doesn't matter to me, even if someone enchanted the wheelchair to levitate multiple times per day to address this, it'd still make the whole point of the wheelchair for aesthetics only.

If there's no mechanical difference in how the wheelchair player traverses the world, and it's just there for window dressing it feels retarded to me.
As a DM, I wouldn't want to deny any player's agency/creativity if at all possible. By that same token, I wouldn't make mechanical concessions to fellate someone's wheelchair fetish. If someone wants to have a crippled character, that's fine, but that decision will impact how their character moves in the world. Otherwise, the decision has no weight.

phylactery CAN be used as a term for a jewbox, but it has an entirely separate name.

even if they couldnt heal it, no party is bringing a cripple when your life is on the line, stay in town

I agree, representation is important and fantasy role playing is the perfect arena for it.

The irony is that non-cripples are the only ones playing with the wheelchair.

it's the disabled "blackface"

Not the "game mechanic" you fucking moron. I'm saying IN LORE. Trying to make Game mechanics deigetic to say it is ok to have cripples that don't live out in the boonies is stupid. No one in fucking Neverwinter is going to be unable to walk unless they were cursed by a God. You would need to be in Red Larch and those people aren't going to be adventuring anyway.

How about a wheelchair bound person because using magic is against their beliefs

Like any diversity addon, it was made by and for straight white males/females. They want to feel special, that they are doing something to help the less fortunate. Since doing something with a real impact is a lot of work... well, this is the best they have. What else do you want? To bring vegan food to the homeless? What's next? deliver vaccines to africa?

that picture is amazingly gay and lame

amazingly gay

hell yes

lame

Fuck off bigot.

In a game of the mind where gods, magic, demons, and magitech exists... You decided to spend your limited time and budget on combat wheelchairs?

If someone had said this was made as a joke, it'd be cringe. The fact they seriously present this as a meaningful addition meant to redress a cultural wrong is what's woke.

We do not look at the people who ride mobility scooters at the grocery store as superhuman cyborgs who can never tire and carry more than the average man. Why would anyone think combat wheelchairs would be treated any different?

Is it really bait if it's real? That WoTC really is that lame and gay to actually put in the combat wheelchair earnestly and not understand why it breaks even the idea of fantasy?

These people aren't smart, they just pretend to be.

They literally force you to stay crippled when you wildshape? What about characters infected with lycanthropy? Are they also forced to use their wheelchairs in their beast form? Does their curse also cripple whoever they bite?

How about instead of doing it "For representation" you do it for the sake of roleplaying?
Maybe I'm a crippled rogue who's trying to find pieces of a magic macguffin so I can wish for my legs to work again while hanging around my wizard friend who uses telekinesis to throw shit at people really fast.

Why is it always cripple legs and moo cow skin with these disingenuous fuckwits and never cerebral palsy or downs syndrome?

240k subs

that's it?

Then you're giving two players a disadvantage. It'd keep the one wheelchair player from tumbling down the steps, but they'd be stuck to crawling up and down the stairs if a combat encounter occurred and everyone had to drop what they were doing to fight.

This would depend on the player in question. A small goblin/gnome could ride another larger player as a mount and let them act as a mobile parapet of sorts. That'd be cooler mechanically, and you could forego the wheelchair altogether. I think this would be better than the wheelchair fetishization.

Be a large Paladin boi with your goblin sharpshooter perched on your shoulders.

Feel his goblin dick get hard against the back of your neck when he scores a headshot. no homo.

or

Riding your large orc warrior mommy into battle.

Lay on hands healing as a petite shota preist.

Keep your "mount" in the fight longer with buffs and healing. You hated it this role...at first.

I could see it happening in Ravenloft or, to a limited extent, in Dragonmech. But being in the wheelchair is a circumstance that can be improved or changed, not something that is just a magical tank that happens to only work for cripples.

I shapeshift into a wolf

ok, roll for wheelchair durability

Huh?

your shapeshifted form is also crippled

What?

it has a shitty wheelchair made of sticks and bones, roll for durability

Most of the original lore has healing at major cities because their god demands the charity

Are you telling me D&D is Catholic/Islamic?

Why is it always cripple legs and moo cow skin with these disingenuous fuckwits and never cerebral palsy or downs syndrome?

For an answer, you need to understand white liberalism. Like, you don't actually think they care about cripples or people with vitiligo, right?

they dont play the game or know anything about it

no game with combat wheelchair

Sly 3

Interesting. As a teenager in the early 2000, I played a lot of tabletop RPG and MTG (on top of vidya of course) and most players were your usual SF/fantasy nerds. We didn't talk about politics at all btw, we shared porn during LANs and shit like that, we didn't care at all about the serious real world issues. We didn't try to change the world or anything like that, just to have fun with the bros. I wonder why escapism isn't the norm anymore. Maybe the politicians and the corpos are trying to weaponize autism, idk.

If we're going to make the point that a Cleric can heal your legs easy, what about characters with scars, eyepatches, burns, and other shit like that? I don't hear retards screaming about those being unrealistic in a world without magic?

Escapism made people too happy and it's very important to those in control that everyone is miserable.

quests from the infinite staircase

Yeah I wonder why there's no wheelchairs in that one.

it's lamer and gayer than a faggot with two broken legs

Makes too much sense, sadly.

I fucking hate whatever art stlye that is. Is it like the modern cal arts for homos?

I want to cast fireball.

A better fantasy disability would be using the magic or tech of the setting to make them functional

I think every disabled person would jump at installing tech that makes them walk again IRL, nobody wants to be a cripple

Combat wheelchair is only good if it's basically a munitions platform or full of gadgets and it's piloted by a cantankerous old person.

man imagine being in the party that has to resort to recruiting a cripple to check for their dungeon traps

Its not actually for cripples, its for blue haired liberal arts students to virtue sognal

I feel pity towards people with no legs. But I do not enjoy these changes.
If you want to play as a cripple that should put your character in a worse state, not give you a magic mount that let's you bypass obstacles, imo.

It's too easy to spot those fags. The shapes, the colors. The mayor of my city is a leftist and now we have pastel coloured posters everywhere, that sucks.

According to liberals, the moral thing for you and everyone around you is to gaslight you into believing it's not a problem.

Don't accept yourself for being different; don't seek people who accept you despite or even because of your differences; just pretend really, really hard that you're not different at all, and cut everyone out of your life who doesn't go along with it. That's the moral and correct thing to do.

That's because YOU are the screaming retard and the gods that grant the players their magic can freely choose for it to not work on people they don't want it to. Clerics also often charge for their services and not everyone can afford that, nor does everyone have access to a cleric of sufficient skill.

Because it was enjoyed by straight white males. When they see straight white males having fun without them... when they see straight white males having fun without any care... they need to destroy that source of joy. And, as always, dnd and magic itself are irrelevant. They did the same with comics, games, movies, etc.

Good thing they haven't destroyed anime yet.

Lesser restoration is a 2nd level cleric spell that cures paralyzed, you don't have to go all the way to a 7th level to treat wheelchair characters

this
a bunch of westoid retards with major life-threatenign problemis not remembering every 112412 genders think that someone permanently chained to wheelchair wishes to also see it ingame and be chained to this tomb in fictional life, because these faggots cannot stop virtue signaling and be offended in someone else stead
obviously, they gonna find some junkie and pay him to lie on recording about how awesome wheelchairs are in fictional games

try using wheelchair and not using anything below your belt not for 1 hour or 1 day, but for a month i dare you. You will be screaming for everyoen to stop this experiment. meanwhile, some people are permanently in this state. Either by being a drunk fucktard in the car, getting hit by a car driven by drunk fucktard, or being unlucky while being born with damaged spine/legs not working. And now niggerfagggots want to remind me constantlya about being a cripple and how cool it is
no you subhuman fucktards, it will never be cool and people smile and play pretend so they're not conidered a little poor baby that constantly need help and pity from eeveryone. They just want money, if they really wanted to help, they would donate money to labs so lucky ones born after me would get an affordable mechanical legs and dong that doesn't need blue pills just to get ready for fap

Ah yes, doomer porn.

Due to the increased cost of living, you're not going to be able to support a family unless you make 250k a year (minimum)

All GMO foods are toxic. They're shortening lifespans and gradually sterilizing the populace (this is a good thing).

Due to resource scarcity, more proxy wars will be fought over diminishing resources in various war-torn countries.

Rape of women and children will rise as society becomes more low trust. Accept the fact every woman if your life is going to be raped.

You will wish you owned nothing, you'll be in debt before you even leave the womb due to increasing healthcare costs.

Gud stuff.

"I want my character to be a deaf-blind mute with no arms"

"And you're sure you want to be a wizard, knowing you have to cast magic using touch, sight, a vocal component or using hand gestures?"

"Are you telling me I can't, bigot?"

"No, just saying that what you're asking is going to be really, really difficult"

"Well you're the GM and your job is making the campaign fun for ME, so that sounds like YOU problem, doesn't it?"

kinda hard to gatekeep when the company wants money and will do anything for said money.

Combat Wheelchair sounds like a fun idea for a novelty videogame where you gotta wheel around dungeons and do annoying austin power 10 point turns and shit while goblins and skeletons are trying to beat your ass

It all makes sense once you remember that the root cause is always women, who can only self insert if they can make the thing 100% about themselves for attention

They have (and continue to) try... manga is probably the only medium safe beyond the usual english translators disease.

scars & burns

Could be simply a sign of pride like warrior's scars or "it's already healed, no reason to fix it"

eyepatches

A harder sell, would probably have to go with "I couldn't afford to get it fixed", a curse or a reminder of a past failure.

Scars are aesthetic and don't impede a characters actions. You can even argue that scares and burn marks are the result of magic instantly healing a severe injury due to how the skin mends.
Fair on the eyepatch though

The moral thing according to liberals is to drug yourself into a stupor on all kinds of medications to numb the pain of existence. Because all the talk about the usual gay faggotry just boils down to quite possibly a genuine hatred for existing in a flawed world and resenting having to live in it.

The solution is to make it so that magic CANNOT heal anything that isn't physical wounds. So you were born a cripple, there's nothing to heal because that's how your body naturally is.
But you're not going to be an adventurer because you're a giant liability and it's just as ridiculous as it is impractical and you need to fuck off with your stupid gay wheelchair.

Correct. 'Tefillin'. No religious Jew calls it a phylactery.
Please don't tell me that's why they renamed it, so as to not offend people who aren't offended.

There's something about it that reminds me of the Corporate Memphis dystopian artstyle, even though this is actual drawn art.

a ton

why yes, i have no idea what i'm talking about. how could you tell?

Read it and weep.
It's so ridiculously overpowered and cheap any character is better off using one regardless of leg status. Because making it cost what a magic item of that caliber would actually cost would be a heckin' oppression or something.

I don't agree with your disagreement, but your alternative is unquestionably superior.

Are you kidding? Adi Shankar already ruined anime by association even though it isn’t really. Plus Japan has not been putting out good stuff and half the series have trannies in now

That's literally it.
Please, keep in mind WotC renamed MTG's 'Kaladesh' to 'Avishkar' because 'Kala' - if you pronounce it wrong - can mean 'Black'

Here's what our consultants said. When we created the original Kaladesh set, we chose the word "kala-" (kalā, kah-LAH) as a word that can mean "tomorrow" or "art," combined with "-desh," meaning "home" or "country." Unfortunately, the term "kala" (kālā, KAH-lah) can also be associated with the meaning "black," and often carries derogatory colorist and racist connotations when applied to a person.

Rather than that, it'd be neater to set up with the DM beforehand that your character gets crippled in one of the early battles and then you spend the campaign building some kind of better and better rig.

Well they are all legs so you would probably just be an inmoveable round carapce.
Their mouthparts are what we would consider "arms" since they dont have jaws so thats all that would work

Is that the gay beholder who is currently mind controlling them all to be the biggest fags to exist?

Lol, this is fucking hilarious. It's just mechanically superior to having working legs. Bravo, wotc.

That was early 2000s culture before everyone had social media in their pockets filled with whatever confirmation bias they want

Unironically it has to do with low IQ. People with low IQ find it harder to understand people with different circumstances than their own.

It's actually very easy to gatekeep when you know who holds the keys to the gate. As amazingly faggalicious Reddit mods are, they are shockingly good at banning any and all who they don't like without hesitation. They make practically every forum on that site one big hugbox where even mere hints of disagreement gets autoremoved.

Isn't this the setting where an artificer could totally make mecha spider legs forna disabled player? Or like fantasy tank treads?

Why the fuck would you go for the wheelchair when you could be a fantasy spiderbot?

Why go for a wheelchair instead?

war wagon wheelchair

combat crutches

downs wizards that use spare chromosomes as a resource to cast spells

what have they done to the game I once loved

the armrests have "sensory stones" so if you don't have functioning upper body either you can go full stephen hawking mode

this is based. doing my next dnd run as a complete invalid

Why does sitting in a wheelchair give you the ability to use tinker tools?

Yes. And this is exactly why the entire concept is stupid and laughed at. Like it's literally only a thing so the creator can pat himself on the back and give himself an award for inclusivity while being completely tone deaf

Because in their proposed rulebook, its cheap and you can get it from level 1.
The better question would be, if the combat wheelchair is cheap, available to everyone, and offers a gigantic laundry list of overpowered benefits, why wouldnt roving bands of wheelchair using bandits be roaming the world?

Beholders are innately evil creatures

Perfectly fine with fags

What did they mean by this

No sane adventurer would have a dude in a wheelchair in his party in the first place.

This stuff reminds me of those schoolbooks from the early 90s where they would have all kinds of weird fucked up looking kids and one black kid in the illustrations

honestly yes, I am more upset by the fact DEI doesn't cater to disabilities like they used to in the 90s. Be retarded, be consistent.

Complete bullshit, just like all the other "oh it's just optional house rules" garbage that's now in the main publication. You are a disgusting, dishonest shithead and you have no credibiliy.

Fucking Mike Wazowski-looking Beholder

The funny thing is - it would be nowhere near as embarassing if they leaned into it as a genuine joke.
Just imagine a game developer releasing a 2000s action game-tier title where you play as a wacky woohoo whellchair man that is doing sick tricks on the enemies and parries them with his legs. I doubt even bitter retards here would hate that.

This picture looks like a 5 year old ate a box of crayons and then barfed on a sheet of paper

How common are granny lesbians?

What series does Plus Japan have?

Theres a lot of things to point to, one of the things that often gets ignored is that most of the artwork for the combat wheelchair pdf was made by someone with a cripple fetish.

sounds obnoxious

Fantasy devised by the Teletubbies.

Doesn't matter, no one plays D&D anymore and Hasbro is shitcanning people left and right. Everyone is bailing for other games. Troons are running off to Pathfinder, everyone else is wandering off to various OSR games like Shadowdark.

the chair canonically has stronger magic that protects it from dispel

I'm the DM and I get final say on virtually everything, as has been stated in every DM manual since the beginning of time.

Who are these consultants and just how much money are they making giving such silly advice?

In Hebrew, 'kallah' means bride. I wonder what language they're using here? I'm guessing Hindi or Urdu based on the -desh.

The goal of the combat wheelchair was inclusiveness. It's stats are geared to scale for high level play. It's stupidly cheap and loaded with permanent magic for low levels.

Pic related. It's the poster child for the wheelchair, in his native setting. That's right. He's a rouge in a wheelchair on a goddam spelljammer.

The INIITIAL design was by a player who wanted a character that looked like him. Nothing wrong with that as a concept. The published versions are promoted pretty much exclusively by disabled fetishists. You know that furry who deliberaely froze his hands off?

he posts a fucking mobile game from a third party chink publisher

Now show me an adventure published by WotC with wheelchar Npcs. Go ahead. The entire adventure list has already been posted here.

In a game with magic, why can't they heal their legs?

Are you kidding? Adi Shankar already ruined anime by association even though it isn’t really.

Literally who?

you are all wrong
this is far worse than you could have possibly imagined
all this wheelchair shit is a fetish
they get off - sexually - to hamfisting wheelchairs into video games
the culture war has expanded. you now fight both the blue hairs and the furry-wheelies.

Imagine thinking this isn't the coolest thing you've ever seen.

Oh, in regards to Kaladesh, it's indian. But yeah, """consultants""" are all grifters that will look to justify their position, and find stuff to complain about.

Imagine selling your soul to the devil and still not being allowed to walk.

The chair, as written in the rules that they published does not allow that.

It's been adopted by wizards since.

Shame you never see much wheelchair porn.

Among other things, he's the shit head who singlehandedly removed the only Indian character in the Simpsons by saying he was a racist caricature and shouldn't have been voiced by a white guy.
In more recent works he's the guy behind both the Castlevania and even more recent Devil May Cry animated series on Netflix. Because he is a poo himself, he naturally made it shitty.

Add mentally deficient character

Say it's "videogame journalist" representation since they seem to like it so much

I want someone to do this

At that point, it's just about the aesthetics.

Now you're getting it.

The goal of the combat wheelchair was inclusiveness

Eh, probably not. Its to please the twitter crowd and the press, farm some free PR win and be praised as the good boy, so people dont focus on you overpriced shit or its quality. Also probably because some consultant company told them to or they would start drama.

go ahead and ask WotC if you can remove niggers, faggots and magic wheelchairs from your game because you're the DM

The handicapped are the only minority you can join, so of course DEI doesn't want to make things that easy.

I now understand how the "crazy" sorcerers phenomena happen in society.
Meteor Swarm, to make sure the job is done.
I think the Tarrasque would get ill if he tried eating that bunch.

I can, because I am the DM.

If the goal was for both inclusiveness and for high levels, does that include making it so objectively better that you'd be stupid for NOT being in the combat wheelchair? The list of boons it got were so good that actually having functional legs was a net negative by comparison.

I was wheelchair bound for a long time before Jesus healed my back. The last thing I ever asked for was seeing wheelchairs in games with magic. It makes no sense, you can bring people back from the dead but you can't heal nerve damage? You can regrow limbs but you're still stuck in a wheelchair? The fuck? The whole idea is asinine to me.

Whoa now I hate indians even more than I previously did.

for me, everything that is past 3e is not canon.

you're not really playing DnD then, because you officially cant remove those things no matter what

The funniest part is the wheelchairs are both way better than walking while being virtually indestructible(they can levitate basically at-will, make you immune to being knocked prone, give you all sorts of bonuses for free, and take three consecutive critical hits to even damage), and are dirt cheap (because making them pricey would be problematic) to the point where there is zero reason for any setting that has them for every adventurer to be walking anywhere instead of zooming around in wheelchairs every single dungeon.

Also if you are crippled they bind to your soul so that even if you transform into something else, your new form is still crippled and in a wheelchair appropriate for whatever form you took.

What? The DM has absolute control.

Killer7 is the only time playing as a guy in a wheelchair has been cool.

meds, secondary

DM has final say, always. Again: It's literally in the book. It's common for there to be restrictions on what type of characters players can create, including races, classes, alignments... etc. There can be restrictions on what type of equipment is available as well. I get the feeling that you have never played D&D.

So, SBI sort of consultants, or 'the CEOs nephew needs a 6 figure job with no qualifications' sort of consultants?

Different guy, Shanker tried to save Apu, but his skin was lighter than the guy who complained so he lost the battle.

I remember a funny copypasta where someone points out that if you took out the wheelchair aspect and basically told the DM you want your next character to have a magic item for free that gave you all of that shit, you would probably get kicked out and never invited back.

It's actually horrifying - I see someone in a wheelchair, and I want to see science cure their ailments, and knowing that one day I could end up in that situation through circumstances outside of my control is terrifying.
But then I see shit like this, where it's a celebration of losing your autonomy, and becoming entirely dependent on the world catering to you, and it's utterly baffling.

Learn the rule 0 faggot.

Why in the fuck would you have a regular ass Wheelchair in Dungeons and Dragons?

Imagine selling your soul to the devil and still not being allowed to walk.

Now, THAT would actually be a cool concept. But no. This dude was just injured. Again, it's not the wheelchair existing, it's the implementation.

>The goal of the combat wheelchair was inclusiveness

Same thing.

What is little WotC gonna do? Remove my DM licence?

If I were disabled and for whatever reason wished others were disabled too, I'd want them to be more like this guy than in a wheelchair.

Nah. Just make Armored Core but you're in an armed wheelchair

Yeah the most recent critique that sent it home for me, is someone took all the advantages of the chair, but just changed it from being a chair to a 'breastplate', which made it the most overpowered item in the game.

literally healed by a cleric

There are so many fucking better ways to go about this. Ride a fucking battle beast, get carried around by a golem, move around on Invader Zim style clockwork spider legs, or make a fucking magic item that gives you permanent flight or something. Even a wheelchair that's setting appropriate or something, but stop making it a fucking modern day wheelchair.

What's the point of an "official wheelchair" in a roleplay game? Couldn't you just simply, you know, roleplay as a handicapped person that got a wheelchairfrom a carpenter or something? Isn't that what roleplaying is about?

Anon, please, just admit you could never finish a single RPG instructions book. It's better than pretending you know what you are saying.
It isn't even a DnD exclusive feature for the DM to have the final say. One example in my pic.

The funniest thing about wheelchair accessible dungeons is that the wheelchair is so busted that they don't even need to be wheelchair accessible anymore.

Reminder that you are supposed to play DnD with your friends. None of your friends has to play a wheelchair character. Your friend who DMs doesnt need to include any wheelchair Npcs.

fake

outrage

Since all the Combat Wheelchair stuff was pushed by fetishists into the game:
How would you put YOUR fetish into DnD?

It's published by WOTC, shows up in official art and in licensed products and you even try for this special pleading? The BG3 characters don't appear in published adventures either, and those published adventures are pure tg, so you should fuck off and shit up that place. You going to make the same sort of claims about Minsc? That was rhetorical. We all know you're just going to throw lies and bullshit anyways. You've been caught.

It was hell. People were either overly nice to me or really mean. I remember praying, asking God, either heal me or I'm going to die. It wasn't the wheelchair, it wasn't needing access, it's the people. People would run up and start pushing me around like I couldn't do it myself. I remember waking up with this terrifying pain in my legs. It was like pins and needles when your arm falls asleep and comes back but it was like 1000x that. Every so often I'll go numb again but I'll regain feeling. It hurt like that for years but instead of using the wheelchair, I walked. Like I had to prove to God that I wanted the healing more than the comfort. Then one day, it didn't hurt. Why? Idk. I don't question why anymore. God does what he wants. I'm just thankful not to be numb. I'm thankful that people aren't staring at me. Every so often I'll run into someone who remembered me and they'll ask if I was faking it. I just say Jesus healed me. I don't care who believes me. Being in a wheelchair and being celebrated, that's not fun for people in that situation. Like today right now my feet are kind of numb but I'll never sit in a wheelchair ever again. I'll eat a bullet first.

In a game where you magically heal, they can't heal that? That's so retarded.

doesnt appear in ANY published adventure

doesnt appear in Bg3, the biggest DnD vidya ever

doesnt appear in the movie

are you so desperate for your outrage induced dopamine hit. Its a complete and utter nothingburger.

Racemixing? Used to be in the game, but the WotC removed it because mixed race characters somehow went from progressive to offensive.
