Fuck off, you weird troll.
The entire rest of the internet understands the BrOSR to be the weird retards who think there's only ONE TRUE WAY to play OSR, and those are exactly the retards who've ruined the /osrg/.
It's really this retard in particular, who I'm assuming is you.

The thing I still really don't understand is why it's not just a hate boner for 2e, but a gay boner for ACKS.
It's such a weird combo, particularly with how untraditional ACKS is and how it's so mediocre quality-wise. The Pro-ACKS trolls and the Anti-2e trolls probably wouldn't have made it clear that they were one small group without them attacking everyone who criticized ACKS in the same manner that they attacked everyone who wanted to discuss 2e.
The whole anti-2e business being core to the BrOSR identity makes a certain degree of sense if they grew from the K&KA forums, but them also promoting ACKS is such a curveball that it's almost impossible for two independent groups to have reached the same extreme and bizarre conclusions independantly. Looking at the BrOSR blogs, the level of shameless shilling they did for the game almost feels like actual money was exchanged.

https://bdubsanddragons.blogspot.com/2021/11/bdubs-essential-guide-to- patron-play.html?m=1
Between the general BrOSR concepts and ACKS, aside from maybe vague politics, the only thing shared is the general unpopularity of their ideas within the OSR community, combined with outsized efforts to make themselves seem larger than they actually are.
It might be much less about the games, and just the methods. The K&KA trolls first tried to promote OSRIC by starting flame wars on Dragonsfoot and the TLG forums, resulting in countless bans and even any mentions of OSRIC being banned entirely from the TLG forums. And, the ACKS trolls managed to get their entire game banned from rpg.net and Reddit because of their brigading. These trolls being part of the same BrOSR group makes sense when you look at things that way, and also helps explain why the /osrg/ is likewise beset by a group of trolls that are particularly aggressive.

Any thread stuck with fishfag will eventually realize how much he is fundamentally a net negative: never actually plays games, spams shit about his gangstalking conspiracies and alt-histories, tries to round up people for his loser army, whines about off-topic shit constantly. He has never made one useful post in the history of tg.

>>98141372
You really spend way too much time trying to build up your fishfag mythology, all just to try and create a reason why you think it's okay to hijack the /osrg/.
Everything you say is always just some sort of lie. Even the whole "there is a singular fishfag" thing is just a lie built on a lie built on a lie.

It was never hijacked, Fishfag. Get it through your head that literally everybody else in the threads voted to exclude you, for this exact reason.

>>98141686
Weird you'd even try repeating these lies when we've got archived evidence of you lying your ass off about all this, including your hijack.
You don't seem to get it. You think 4chan doesn't have a memory and that if you just lie and keep lying your lies can replace the truth somehow, despite the archive being a permanent record of your falsehoods.

Dude, you need to just give up.
You're down to just denying things even when the proof is right there, hoping to jump to a new lie when you realized you're pinned, and all while hoping that there's anyone left who's willing to believe your "it's all just one guy" bullshit.
You're neither as clever as you imagine you are, nor is 4chan dumb enough to fall for your shit. You probably should just cut your losses and jump ship to some other website and hope that they're actually dumb enough to listen to you. Maybe find one without an archive that can be used to reveal what kind of shitstain you are.

>and OSR-adjacent games.
I've been looking for something older to try and run a game based around Final Fantasy 1 and was recommended Retro Phaze in another thread. I like what I've seen so far and am very interested in playing it so I was wondering if anyone has any experience with it? I was also wondering if anyone has the Advanced stuff John Higgins was working on for his next addition before he washed his hands of it and deleted it all from the internet. I'm really hoping to eventually meet someone who actually saved the stuff.

It's weird for an OSR game. Seems much more like just a generic light system.
It looks functional and slim, though not particularly good in any category. It's actually kind of dull, especially compared to something like Ryuutama which shares a similar light feel and video-game inspired mechanics but is just so much more inspired and flavorful.
It would probably work very well for a FF1 game, since that's basically what it was designed for, but I wonder how long its novelty would last. It's at least good that they had enough sense to put the best item into the game.

>>98143058
The guy who wrote it calls it OSR and even put OSR on the back cover. And this was back in 2011.
He's got a weird interpretation of Old School, but it's definitely inspired by OD&D, and it's also inspired by Final Fantasy, which was inspired by the Wizardry, which was inspired by OD&D.
>>
>>98143080
Not really. My personal definition of OSR is an emulation of Oldschool (pre 3rd ed) D&D. OSR adjacent stuff to me is stuff that takes that formula and gives it a new theme (stars without number)
This game is just a rules lite system, it's not emulating D&D in terms of playstyle, mechanics & goals. Still fun, but not paet of the OSR IMO. That being said don't seek permission to enjoy this, just play it.

>>98151020
Because fishfag >>98151075 hijacked your thread for his sperg jihad against /osrg/.
He was doing the same for months, posting altered versions of the /osrg/ OP as soon as /osrg/ hit bump limit, until the mods put an end to it.
Now he's doing it to your thread. How do you like it when it happens to you?
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>98151502
He hates /osrg/ for /pol/tarded reasons, wants to destroy it, and he uses whatever /osrg/ dislikes as an excuse to troll it.
He wrote hundreds of posts of alt history about 2e and Dragonlance, and then he was caught not even knowing that Raistlin was a playable character in the Dragonlance modules. He also clearly doesn't know the rules of 2e.
Some 2e fans here think he's an ally because he poses as someone who cares about 2e, and somehow they don't understand that he's just using them for his sperg jihad. But he's managing to alienate them as well, which frankly is hilarious to see.

>>98151480
>>98151483
Fishfag isn't real. I'm not the OP of this thread, and the proof of your hijacking has been demonstrated a thousand times already, while you act like you've got alzheimers and constantly keep asking for the same links in the archive showing how hollow your "consensus" was. You even trying to pretend a concensus could be reached on 4chan about any divisive topic points you as a guy who doesn't even care how ridiculous his lie is.
You're right in the middle of further proof that people disagree with your personal definition, while still acting like you can pretend everyone who recognizes a commonly understood fact is a single entity. OSR

Hard to tell, and speculating about staff motivations is basically against the 4chan rules anyway, so I won't do it.
What matters more is fishfag's motive: He's noticed that your thread title was more successful than his, so he's decided to take it over to use it in his sperg jihad against /osrg/.
How and whether janitors and mods decide to deal with it is up to them, ultimately.

It was nice.
3 days without any if his trolling in the real OSR threads, and curiously the /osrg/ also dropped to less than ten posts a day. It really seems like the /osrg/ troll is just a guy who treats being a BrOSR like a full-time job.

>>98151565
>He's noticed that your thread title was more successful than his, so he's decided to take it over to use it in his sperg jihad against /osrg/.
It's this. His own "OSR Thread" with the same OP text as this got pruned, so in order to push his insane assrage he just got in ahead of the real Open OSR posters in making a thread with that name but his OP text so he could keep screeching and trying to brigade against /osrg/. He did this exact hijacking shit to /osrg/ dozens of times, so it's hardly surprising.
That said, obviously "Open OSR" is pretty stupid and trolling to begin with and I'm not sure why the mods have decided to let that one stay, since all OSR games can be discussed in /osrg/ already, or you could start an /nsrg/ for nuSR games, /2eg/ for 2e and so on.

The BrOSR are weird losers who think they can speak for all of the OSR while dick-riding an imaginary version of Gygax, created by only taking quotes of his they agree with while ignoring all the contradictory and paradoxical quotes the man made because he hardly had a consistent philosophy regarding games.
The BrOSR are hated everywhere, which is why BrOSR like yourselves try to pin all that ire on the few BrOSR who are willing to self-affirm. It's like you being a faggot and pretending that the only people who are called faggots are people who call themselves faggots. You dumb faggot.

I’m replaying final fantasy 1 and I forgot how much OD&D was in it. I think some people describe brutal game-ism in TTRPGs as ‘old school’ but there are also a lot of specific things like the magic system, most of the spells and a lot of the monsters.
Also if a post contains the term “fishfag” it’s basically astroturfing. I don’t care if you call them brosr or you think they’re acks shills or whatever but they’re actually killing /tg/ even deader than it already was.

“People in the past /osrg/ threads never mentioned 2e unless they were telling 2e posters to fuck off.” I’ve seen them say that more than once, they never notice the contradiction.
Also, they say that gold-for-xp is downgraded to an optional rule in 2e and that makes it fundamentally incompatible with 1e (this is the best case they can make for noncompatibility) but they call ACKS a retroclone.
Do you see that guy saying that the /osrg/ is better than it has been in years?
>>98151520
>wrote hundreds of posts of alt history about 2e and Dragonlance
lol, you appeal to a fake history of the OSR in order to shut down the discussion of OSR games, so then people end up educating you about the history of the OSR and you end up trying to shut that down too, like you’re trying to filibuster yourselves. The term “OSR” was never actually used to refer to playing old D&D raw, and a real oldschool enthusiast would have never given such bad advice to a new player.
Which module let you play as Rastlin?
