Why does /lit/ hates the fantasy D&D /tg/ literature of gamebooks and D&D manuals and fantasy novels?

>> No.20139903

Because DnD is not a literary activity. It's just a way of easing autistic people into socializing with each other, by distracting them with a play-pretend childish fantasy, like pretending they're knights killing dragons. DnD would literally not exist if autistic people were able to socialize normally.

Gamebooks and manuals aren't literature.
No one in 50 years is going to pick up a copy of the 5e player's manual and think they've got a timeless treasure.

99% of seriuous literature is smelling the farts of progressive academics.

lmao.

No one is going to be reading that shit in 50 years either. People will still be reading Lord of the Rings 100 years from now.

Perhaps some of the novels, but probably not the manuals except out of morbid curiosity (and to do some hardcore grog shitposting).

well, I mean in general the whole D&D tolkien like jrpg world setting.

You're just saying random words now, but for the record I don't hate these manuals, they just aren't literature.
The same way I don't hate music, it's just that there are other boards for those subjects.

>> No.20140147

>>20140138
they're literature, because they're written books that tell a story.

May be shit, but they're still literature.

Try having your own kids, don’t invent fictitious cuckoldry to excuse inaction and childishness. The amount of abortion that goes on these days means that it’s very easy to meet single childless women so long as you’re under 40 and not a complete poorfag.

This happens or doesn’t whether or not you have a family

there's around 150 million babies born every year, I dont need to have kids.

There should be less babies born, we should at least abort any baby after 40 million babies born.

fuck you.

I just finished a D&D game about 30 minutes ago. I love this shit.

there's enough japanese and german kids born today to fill 18 century japan and germany population.

Also most of jobs will disapear in 15 years, we should have less babies overall.

And we should simply replace the economic system to be totally automated and implement some form of UBI.

and also bring the alien secret technology from the nazi UFO shit.
