Can't say I'm a fan of femboys or any of that weird fetish stuff.
But I also don't fancy the termination and deplatforming of individuals who are lied about, harassed, stalked, targeted and bullied.
This is the unfortunate reality of TaigaxHolic.

Yeah, might as well just stick with Tasha's. Half the new class is ripped from that book anyway.
Welcome to 5.5E: It's all just Tasha 😐
Pakistani Brit tries to explain the Greek of D&D 5.5e and I am *incredibly* confused; good grief, this edition *also* reads like a text-based MMORPG.
I'm sorry dude, it is to late. I and the 49 people that have viewed this video so far already started the harrassment campagin in your name.
The world ain't ready... Have mercy.
@@justhero Really good video though. Keep up the good work. Me and the boys will harass whomever you want.
Lmfao thanks bro, I'll keep it in mind.
I laughed so hard. This was amazing.
all I want to know is how can someone get paid to design this? there are like 10 better ranger reworks by randos on youtube and the official release is this?
Should rangers not just be the best at archery? Isn't it an easy fix?
Well, see it depends on what you think of when you say Ranger. You might point and say "archery", but personally I imagine like a Wildlife Ranger ya know? To that effect, a Ranger doesn't necessarily need a bow and arrow, they just need to be themed after that and have Ranger-y abilities. You could make the Ranger the best at archery, but imo it still wouldn't FEEL like a Ranger in terms of flavour and such.
@@justhero fair but atleast rogues and warriors should be worse.
Rangers ought to excel at guerilla warfare.
for the love of god please never use the hyperealistic lips and teeth ever again. I mean this in all seriousness I haven't seen something that unnerving in years. aside from that absolutely 100% to every point in the video and thanks for bringing attention to it!
Retention is hard these days... The hardest choices require the strongest wills. I will do what I must. Also, I think I looked quite dashing personally 😤
Solid video. Yeah, ranger is a bummer.
no
Yea they essentially turned ranger from fighter/druid/rogue hybrid to "hunter's mark: the class". Oh and those things from tasha's that actually bumped up ranger to "acceptable"? Yea, lets NERF that stuff... as if ranger needed NERFS for some weird odd reason. You know how hunter is the "ranger ranger"? Instead of the hunter's mark nonsense... what if they just added the hunter options and the hunter subclass gets a second choice on top of the original choices? That would increase the baseline effectiveness of the ranger and make the hunter range shine REAL nice.
Amazing, a face reveal to tell the liberals that are calling you a white supremecist to shut their mouths and maybe actually accept that "normal people without mental disorders" also includes other races. You go dude, love the channel. On a more constructive and less political note because i actually want to add something of value to the comment section here: As a DM i'm going to resort to just allowing anyone who plays ranger to just pick some homebrew ranger rework or subclass as long as it doesnt feel too overpowered in my games but remains fun to play. Personally have a druid/ranger multiclass that is a ratfolk and collects and uses rats. Titled "The Sovereign Bound Together (or The Rat King for short)" he uses rats and turns into rats for all manner of spywork, espionage, infiltration, distanced communication, disruption, and theft, best used in City locations like Waterdeep based out within the sewers. A scottish author named Alasdair Gray wrote: "If you want to know the city, ask the rats." So i need ranger to be good, and it's just not.
Cheers bro, thanks for your support. And yeah, I wasn't a fan of the 2014 Ranger to begin with so I allowed a player to start testing some homebrew versions and UA revised. UA is most definitely busted but gives good ideas on how it SHOULD play. Also, Rat King sounds like an absolute blast lmao
I've avoided clicking on nearly all 5.5 stuff, but this one got me. Good stuff.
Personally the Ranger class should just cut out spellcasting and hone in on the survivalist wilderness tour guide. It would have given us another martial class.
I kinda agree. Idm minor cantrips tbh and then the option to choose a spellcasting focused subclass would be a nice choice later on... As opposed to it being the crutch of every possible ranger build.
@@justhero Watch Mr. Welch's video on the Ranger and why it has the problems that it has (it goes back to the 1st edition). He also suggested the same solution that I mentioned above and put a solution that really works. I would say that I came across this solution from his video, but I've seen similar suggestions before. Side note he's got videos on fixing the Barbarian, Monk, and Warlock classes that are very interesting. His channel is mostly focused on the Mystara setting of D&D, but hes got several videos on general fixes for 5e.
@@SilverDragoon7395 Honestly what needs to happen is that the ranger needs to go modular. Personally, my favorite rangers are stealthy gishes- something that it cant do without spellcasting, and no other class can really do outside of subclasses. Rangers have such a wide reaching identity, that you cant satisfy everyone without giving them lots of choices.
Sort of like what Pathfinder did with them? I read up on it and it seems like they've made it so that the ranger can be built to be whatever your idea of a ranger is. TTRPGs are made up of the choices you make so I kinda dig that approach.
@@SoundtrackDetector I agree, one of the ways that could be done is if we took the weapon feat and skill system from BECMI system, plus the fighting styles from 2e. As well as the fuse the 5e sub classes and 2e Kit system to give player choices. Still though Rangers should still be the designated wilderness tour guide and not the diet druid. Seriously watch Mr. Welch's videos. He is one of the best DnD UA-camrs I've seen and has really influenced my views on game design. Though his main focus is being a lore channel for the Mystara Setting.

4:38 people are only using that first excuse to hide their homophobia. This is a universe where a man dresses as a bat and fights crime. Two women kissing is the least unbelievable thing here.
1. More Batman 2. Less wokeness. No one was that open in 1940. 3. No 2020s attitudes in a 1940s program.
1. Good Idea 2.Yes there were open people in the 40s especially in big cities, and anyone who wants less wokeness in a tv show (or even uses the word "woke")is a brain broken conservative who would complain about anything that isn't straight and white no matter what 3. If you care about historical accuracy then say that but don't mask your own bigotry, normal people don't open a point with "Less wokeness" that's just weird
There actually were several pockets of openly queer communities in the 1900's. It was still highly criminalized ofc but it was something that could and would exist as an "open secret" though it obviously let to a ton of police harassment. Also interestingly enough lesbians weren't AS stigmatized or even recognized at all around this time, it was mostly gay men that were perceived as a threat. If anything the kiss not leading to any discrimination is less surprising than the women in positions of power facing little resistance from their colleagues.
@@ClaireNighten exactly, and the reason this comment makes even less sense is because it was one kiss in one episode come on like you could easily just fast forward 5 Seconds and not have to deal with it if it breaks your immersion, another funny thing is we don't even know that it's the 1940s, yeah sure it has the Ambience Essence and Technology of the 40s but for all we know that's all it is this could easily just be a world with a 1940s aesthetic especially considering that the political landscape of DC and Marvel has always looked vastly different than our own
for me it's a matter like this If they explicitly stated that it's world __ With a comic book tie in then there's a already set world and you have to stick with it. they didn't do that If you say this is earth in the year 1040 ish then you're ignoring some of the best points of conflict about society and how we've evolved over that time. They didn't do that I think they just sat back and said 'Fuck it. let's use noire asthetics in a world that is socially near the modern age so we can still tell the character story we want.' and that was the right call. There are some gripes i have about the show but they're all minor. The internet freaking about the kissing scene would be at least somewhat understandable if the above 2 scenerios happened. they didn't. This is a new world for batman that still holds true and respects the characters. Harley has always been bi so it's not out of character for her to kiss a woman so logically who gives a fuck.
What bugs me is that Batman takes basically a backseat. The modernification of the setting is annyoing but was to be expected and I can ignore it. Batman being a pretty bad detective and also only a mediocre fighter... you could point to him still learning the ropes. It's still annoying. Him actually not having all that much screen time in his own show though annoys me the most. This is much closer to a show about Barbara Gordon and Renée Montoya. Which, if they would actually commit to that would be awesome! A show about Gotham's police department with these two at the forefront? Amazing idea! I would watch that. But it is BATMAN THE CAPED CRUSADER... and we see comparitively little of Batman. And he either heavily relies on others or his achievements get downplayed.
WOW THANKS FOR CATCHING ME UP!! I NEVER KNEW THIS NEW BATMAN THING EVEN EXISTED HECK YEAH!!!
Wow you telling me Batman needs to learn how to play with others? Lucky Robin may pop in in he future n help with that(dosnt have to happen S1/S2 imo as long as it happens because it's something that'll be past anything LA ever does since tehy are just so in love with forming the JL over n over again)
The editing is getting out of hand
Bro the racism integrated into the Races (specifically the drow) is VERY MUCH a thing Dnd orcs are only like Tolkien orcs in appearance, and even then that’s vague. But also, it doesn’t matter if they were inspired by Tolkien, they wrote them in a racially charged manner in DnD You’re just ignoring everything that’s in there One DnD is shit, but you are absolutely wrong
My only complaints were... 1) Yes, I agree with Deadpool; that one character DID need a dialect coach. And also needed to tone down his goofiness a bit. 2) What a waste of a compelling villain! If the multiverse Phase in general weren't so much of a clusterf**k, she could have been a major, if not the definitive villain for the arc! The rest were nitpicks like you said. Even my gf and I were wondering how Wolverine manages to get drunk. My guess is that maybe a psychosomatic element of his healing factor was broken. Kind of like his "whiskey dick" claws. But I'll end it here, 'cause I think I'm beginning to say too much!
Hard agree with point number 2. She was brokenly powerful and Emma Corrin acted her ass off. Had some serious potential but ultimately led to naught. They might have even been able to reuse her in later movies but in typical Marvel fashion they killed her off. Shame.
well wolverine can get drunk he just needs to drink a FUCK ton of alcohol and even then it'll only be for a couple of seconds hence why he's always drinking.
Just about to go see the movie this upcoming weekend! I can't wait!
Yo have fun man, you're going to have a blast.
@@justhero Just saw it! I personally think DP2 was better, but I'm biased because juggernaut :P. Anywho, although the multiverse thing is beaten to death, I do think this one actually pulled it off in a better way than the others: cameos. These cameos were not just old beloved characters, but rejected characters, and seemingly "poorly done" characters. Old beloved like blade, rejected like Gambit, and "poorly done" like human torch and the xmen 3 Juggernaut. Gambit was meant to have his own movie or series and it just... never happened. So we have him here and properly done with his lore-accurate strong cajun accent! Sure, it was thick, but as a cajun myself I was giddy to see him being done properly.
I half agree. I think the racism discourse around orcs, drow etc is a mixed bag. That approach to the topic comes out of academic literary criticism. Around the 1960s critics became very interested in not just reading a text on its own terms but situating it in the larger context of history and culture, and seeing how that changes the possible meanings. Through that kind of lens, lots of things in literature take on more sinister connotations. Tolkien’s orcs are presented as an irredeemably savage and uncivilised race, in the same way that various non-white peoples have been presented throughout history as justification for violence and exploitation against them. The point, in that academic tradition, would be to recognise this as a source of tension in the text and an indicator of how hard it is to avoid entrenched ideology of the real world finding its way into even fantasy fiction. Pointing to it and saying “this proves Tolkien was a racist” is a more recent phenomenon, very common in online discourse, and a misunderstanding of that method of literary criticism. As you say, Tolkien was manifestly anti-racist in his politics. All that said, the question for D&D is whether most players want to engage with a game world in which irredeemably savage and uncivilised races exist. Clearly there’s a strong appetite now for fantasies that make a conscious effort to buck history and escape that kind of ideology, and they’re responding to that. As you say, that’s a business decision (and probably a good one). One place I think you’re wrong is when you say the fact is there’s a balance to strike being doing that and staying true to the original vision of worlds like Faerun. That’s an opinion, not a fact. If WotC want to move away from a vision for those settings that some fans are still attached to, that’s their prerogative, and they may well have decided that from a business perspective trying to balance the two approaches would be less successful than leaning in to the one that seems to have more fan momentum behind it. I think if the direction WotC want to take the game doesn’t appeal to you, you should just own that and say you dislike it, rather than present the balanced option as somehow objectively better than what they’re doing. And maybe see it as freeing: D&D is going in a direction you don’t like, so don’t buy the new books. Let your eye wander to the many, many alternatives. I’m very much looking forward to completely ignoring D&D 5.5 (though more for game design reasons than socio-political ones). This is an exciting time!
The OSR is great.
If 10 million hate dnd, I am one of them. If 10 hate DnD, I am one of them. If only one sumbitch hates DnD, That's me! If Billions unironically love DnD, then I will need 10 billion bullets If One person loves DnD, Guess they are the last incel. If the World is for DnD then the world probably has brainrot.
Your response to that last comment earned you another subscriber, rock on brother 🤘🏻😂
One d and d sounds like it's going to be a game for failed directors and improv actors. The 5th edition had its problems, and it looks like the 6th edition is just going to build on them. 5th edition was a bounded system where they really wanted everyone to play the same character. When they relieved the book that added many playable races, they proved that. Want to play as a centaur character? Well, we can't have you be a large character. You're going to have to roleplay as a medium-sized unit. Centaurs are known for their athleticism and strength. 3.5 knew this and gave them a plus 6 strength modifier. You can't have your centaur character greatly stronger than the rest of the players.
Homogenous races.
Yeah... anytime fantasy games add in real world concepts, it just ruins the game. Most real world concepts as of late have mainly been woke bullshit - but then we just homebrew it out, because EFF. THAT. xD
not sure how D&D is watered down considering space hamsters are a canon monster in D&D I think honestly you're upset that your cool lil game isn't niche anymore. Let people have fun, its wild how you're the only person that doesn't like that more people are joining the game and that WOTC is trying to make it more inclusive for other people.
6:00 with them trying to make the game less racist it always felt really weird to me that they decided to switch the term race to species. Like isn’t that reinforcing the differences between these people? If they were gonna switch it I would have preferred something like ancestries
Goes to show how they don't even know the meaning of the word. Labeling them as different "species" means hybrids and interbreeding wouldn't be possible.
Escapism is not when a silver platter is freely given; escapism is having the means and opportunity to pursue a silver platter.
In DnD's case, a sack of shite(The DM) is serving the Silver platter. Screw that.
"Humans in funny suits."
I hate how people always insist they're not gatekeeping. Gatekeeping is a good thing, a lack of it is a large part of what got D&D to the state where it's currently at. Almost across the board, the larger a thing becomes, the more shitty it is for the original fans who loved it from the start.
I think gatekeeping is a separate topic entirely, hence why I wanted to stay away from it in this video. More to the point, I think gatekeeping is good in moderation. There are some definite advantages as you pointed out, and people who wish to change the hobby selfishly to strip away its unique flavouring so its just another uninteresting mainstream thingie should definitely be shunned. That being said, aggressive gatekeeping is also negative. Rejecting any and all change should be avoided, as a fresh stream of newcomers into a hobby is what keeps it alive and dynamic. Change should be celebrated as long as it continues to keep in mind where it we started, the roots of the thing in question and how far we've come.
@@justhero A hobby should be just open enough to attract people but firm enough in character/feeling to the point where newcomers will have to make an effort to adjust.
Agreed. We shouldn't be changing the hobby to please newcomers, it should be changed for the sake of better storytelling and such, when and if necessary. Accessible, yes, but not done so to make it "digestible" to the mainstream media.
I mean old dnd orc's where racist. something doesn't need to be a one to one comparison to be racist the issue is that you ascribe a single trait to a whole group of people. I would also argue that making whole races evil or even good is bad storytelling and worldbuilding as it means you don't need to explain or justify there action in stead just hand wave it with there god is evil. this isn't even mentioning how races can be dumber then other raves even those that's not how brains work. now why is this racist while supporting a at best naive at worst harmful mind set on how race and culture work in the real word. also your argmunet about change is self deafting has options aren't being taken away it just there is now no wall for people to lean which means people aren't critised for changing thing
Does an mma fighter need to rest to change between muay thai and jujitsu? Makes no sense from an immersion perspective

My favorite Race is also Human. Mostly because many other races in D&D have stats, but they don't have culture. Elves, Dwarfs, Gnomes, I can take the best elements from other RPGs like Warhammer or Pathfinder and add strong Clan and Honor culture in Dwarfs or Bleaching in Gnomes, Elves are special in my eyes for longevity and reincarnation. Many other races don't have that, and because of it I don't gravitate towards them. Humans are kind a different for me, as I think of them more as a part of a culture (is this character from Waterdeep, or from Calimport) and I build them based on values of their homeland. I miss that in most D&D games, where most DMs or Players don't think too much about how alient to human thinking are different races or how incredible variable can they be just by taking inspirations from different real life cultures. Also I'm Polish and for some people I'm a POC. If you think that way, please go away from me.
Saiyans >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Humans(Frauds).
4:23 - what's the difference? less feet?
Iam so sad that they change so much of the rich story, to account for the 1% pissed people (of wich only another 1% even play the game). Still ... bit of a rant from you man :D
I think I might major in rants lmao Thanks for commenting anywho
I fully agree. It's strange how they are trying to make all races blank slates... It ultimately ruins the suspension of disbelief. It's just not really feasible. Of COURSE each race CAN be X, Y, or Z, but their nature and culture determine the likelihood of making said decision and how said decision was made. Let's continue with Orcs as an example. Orcs are most well known for being brutish and tribal. On average, they are fairly unintelligent, vicious, and physically strong in comparison to other races. This does not mean there cannot be an Orc mage. On the contrary, it is an important tool of character growth and development of overcoming challenges; racial challenges included. An Orc mage, being fairly rare, may actually be seen as a leader among the Orcs as they at least know this particular individual has more intelligence and thus has better decision making skills. This evolves the worldbuilding because the Orcs, once broken and tribal, are now becoming unified, organized, and tactical ON TOP OF their already superb combat capabilities. That whole idea, both the good and bad, made this one Orc outright AWESOME. ....But we can't have that if they are all just blank slates. Now it's a bunch of "ok, whoop-dee-doo, you're an orc and a mage. Anyone can be a mage. Moving on." A boring, sterile environment.
I feel like they're just making the setting bland and lifeless. All the flavor, character and potential hooks are being erased. A blank slate doesn't help new dms run a good game. There's very little inspiration for new players and gms
Lifeless? I think all the races/species and setting are way more unique now and the illustrations showing several individuals of the same race interacting and living in a community says much more about the setting and gives many different ideas to the player who is creating the character. A way better approach than just a illustration of one individual
@@piratelego1Illustrations are not enough for any super in-depth worldbuilding and that's the problem.
@@piratelego1 They are just making them all the same. Drow used to be the evil edgy elfs from below, now they are ... elfs with dark skin. Orcs used to be savage monsters that where not so smart but plenty strong, now they are green humans.
I feel that. Its much easier to remove something from the books that you didnt like, than to come up with all the spice yourself. If i dont want Orcs to be savage .. i just leave that part out. If this continues, all we will have is humans in different colors and with some extra bits. (also Furrys, cause no one messes with Furrys)
@@CritSquid Following your same logic, if you don't want a civilized orc, just don't bring it into your game. It's very dumb an intellectual orc mage idea be discouraged by the system and lore because "orcs are stupid"
Why do you keep calling it One DND? They ditched that name over a year ago lmfao
One D&D 5.5e: Electric Boogaloo
Edit: holy fuck some people commenting on that previous video must be unhinged I'm going to be honest... turning Rangers into Hunter's Mark: The Class is not exciting, good or even funny. WOTC is on a big fat F- taking trip right now...
Variant human? Trash. Excellent points on the rest of the vid though. That clown deserved all the smoke! 🤣
I cry whenever I remember that the updated edition has removed them.
12:40 the greatest magical transformation sequence since sailor moon Also props for taking the time to better articulate your points and respond to comments! I still don’t agree since as a DM I really quite like the storytelling possibilities that emerge from “humanizing” the evil and making the whole aesthetic a bit more “soft” or idealistic. Regardless I quite liked your video! even if you maybe went a bit to far down the tangent of debunking the “racist orcs” trope, though that’s a nitpick from a random person on the internet on what is otherwise emblematic of good internet discourse!
I get what you mean by adding that element into your villains. Its definitely preferential from DM to DM, personally I feel like in recent years the trope has been overdone which culminated here. Ofc, a well done villain is a well done villain at the end of the day and I respect it if thats the way people want to run their games. In terms of the orc tangent- yeeeeaahhh, my bad. Second video in a row thats happened, I get way too caught up in talking about that stuff, but I promise that'll be the last time I talk about them for a while lol. But yeah, I wanna keep things civil and open for discussion round these parts. Thanks for commenting!
Stay strong bro. Good vids, don’t listen to the trolls. I’m subscribed and will keep watching!
GOAT.
i recently started dm'ing my first campaign and as ive begun absorbing content to get knowledge and such i started to notice how much people inject real life non-sense into a fantasy game. one video about how Orcs are problematic because they have the characteristics of evil, stupid, etc. and arent a playable race. A video about the new rules coming out about how its good that backgrounds decide stat bonus's rather than race because "its weird that elves would have more intelligence than other races". which on that note, now that they are distinctly 'species' instead of races because that is a more proper term to define the races of dnd, its not at all problematic to say another species has more intellect than another. easiest example is Humans compared to just about any other animal in existence. there is just to much of people injecting their 'problems' into a fantasy world that doesnt confine to their world view. even though with the power of homebrew, it always could have. It just irks me that some people are acting like this is something to concern themselves with. certainly by next release Goblins are just misunderstood and misrepresented because of real world racism.
I agree with you, race has gotten a ton of baggage lately and other people just project their damage into the game/world. Sadly if one person doesnt eat spicy, the hole dish has to be bland and you have to season it yourself.
Personally, I make races even more important. I like the old-school way of making a race and also a class. But then again, I have a unique way of introducing new races and classes in my game.
I thought "One D&D" was just the codename, but the actual name now is D&D 2024 edition?
Easier to refer to it as such, and has a snazzy logo to slap on for thumbnails. Purely for ease of talking about it. Once its out it'll just be "D&D".
@@justheroyeah but you lose credibility by referring to it as a name that was abandoned a very long time ago. Just say 5.5 or “new” like everybody else.
One D&D better lol I'm kidding, I'm kidding. I'll keep it in mind for future titles but credibility is not something I need to worry about at this point.
@@justhero given the rants you went on that is painfully clear
I like it to call the new edition "One D&D 5.5: Electric Boogaloo"

Just so you know, your argument about race will go straight over these people's heads because to them, all people with a certain level of melanin are one super race.
