| Topic | Meth is extremely scary. |
| Doe 04/07/21 4:30:46 AM #1 | It causes overwhelming levels of dopamine in the brain. 1,250 times the amount created by sex. Just one use of meth is habit-forming and severely damaging to the brain. After even minimal meth usage, dopamine receptors can be permanently damaged and the brain can no longer create its own, relying on meth to produce any at all. Meth basically trivializes any other experience you've ever felt in your life and rewaires your brain to do seek out meth Of course subsequent uses are never as powerful as the first dose and eventually the addict doses just to avoid the agony of the withdrawal. --- |

| Topic | Evil Races are Bad Game Design |
| Doe 04/05/21 9:59:49 PM #76 | So This video felt a little all over the place. This video probably should've been "The Good-Evil classification is Obtuse". The art keeps relying on slimes as an example, which are basically animals acting on instinct. They eat people because people are a valid food source and all they do is search for food. More care should've been taken to differentiate between deadly creatures and intelligent humanoids, because seriously, who really cares if you kill a slime in DnD? "If the players' characters are able to make moral choices, but an entire class of NPCs is inherently evil regardless of their choice, then the game is either telling the player that moral choices don't matter, or it's simply driving a wedge between the player's morality and the morality that applies to the rest of the world, blocking the player from further becoming a part of it." This assertion just doesn't make sense. As in, I'm not sure what they're trying to say. That if someone acts 'evilly' toward you even though you acted good, then there's no reason to ever act good? A moral option is by definition an option that appeals to high ideals like honesty, integrity, and fairness, regardless of the material outcome of the choice. Morality is not transactional. The closest we get to how EC sees "Evil" is that someone who chooses to destroy a house can be called "evil" because they made a choice to do so. If you can always predict creature X will destroy your house though, it's a force of nature, not an intelligent race. I think this is fair, but again, it's ultimately a problem with Good-Evil classification and not having hostile creatures to fight in an RPG. When they start talking about tactical games, they use "ethics" interchangeably with morality. That uh, isn't how that works. At this point they argue that 'Evil Races' doesn't hold up in a war-game (a game where the point is to have fun fighting and not to tango with moral or ethical dilemmas) because a player might feel some empathy for them anyway. Their solution is that bad guys should be people that wear an Evil Badge. They pledged themselves to the Organization of Evil (examples being KKK, Nazis), so it must be okay to kill them. What's not discussed is the fact that evil organizations often use underhanded tricks and indoctrination to recruit people, or that organizations often get branded good or evil for political and economic reasons outside the scope of the player party. In other words, their 'solution' does not negate empathy or questions of morality any more than an Enemy Race will. In that case, the reason to actually not use an Enemy Race must come from somewhere outside of player empathy or morality reasons. That reason is the very one EC swears the video is not about: Evil races are problematic because they assign traits and assumptions and moral valuations to an entire race of people. --- |
