I’m cool with roleplaying as an animal person, wearing a costume, the fetish aspect, whatever. Live your life.

I just don’t understand why they’ve all standardized to using the same terrible art style. It doesn’t look like a human, an animal, or even a sonic character (which I assume is the root), but a fourth thing. You can tell a furry by how they draw a normal human because of how deep set the habits are. Is there any other group as exclusively committed to an art style?

If I spent that kind of money on a wolf costume I’d at least want it to vaguely look like a wolf.

Edit: If you think these don’t heavily share a style (as compared to anthropomorphic characters from non-furry animated series, for example) then I don’t know what to tell you.

I was talking to a couple of friends about how I wanted to play the Dark Urge and recruit Minthara in BG3, but I never could because I couldn’t bring myself to be that mean. One of them said “Hey man, I’ll make the tough choices, no problem. You just tag along and watch.” So we started a new playthrough.

Right as we get back to the grove and are about to wipe out the tieflings, both of them start in with “I don’t want to kill the tieflings! This sucks! Why are we doing this!?” So we loaded and changed our decisions.

And I’m thinking “This whole operation was your idea!”

Close, they actively fight success. Legally obligated to, even. It’s their fiduciary responsibility to keep you using the app.

.2% per year? So we should expect about 10% of people to be murdered by 50?

I was going to say .2% is better than I thought, but that’s pretty dire.
