Dungeons and Dragons

This is just a random thought that popped into my head.

How many of you feel that D&D is a bad thing? I know there are quite a few people who feel that Dungeons and Dragons is basically Satan's board game (like Chutes and Ladders with a fiery lake at the bottom!), but what do you all think of it?

Personally, I have no problem with it (though I don't play it), but I know my parents sure do 🙂. The mom in particular (heh) believes that if I ever touched D&D material, I'd become a die-hard Satanist.

What are your thoughts?

(Feel free to incorporate video games based off of D&D.)

Heh, you're gonna become a die-hard Satanist, LOL, that'll be interesting...for a change, why don't you post as you imagine a die-hard Satanist would for the next 48 hours! Liven things up,mix it up.

people read too much into things now. we have become a country of wusses and gun slinging cowboys with a john wayne syndrome. a game is just a game until you put something else behind its meaning.

Is it absolutely positivly nerdy? Yes

Is it satanic? No, no its not. but its nerdy

*proceeds to de-nerd self*

I dont play it, but i dont think its nerdy or anything...i just wouldnt play it 😛

D&D is awesome, I used to play with my buddies alot last summer. It's fun. It has nothing to do with satan and anyone who thinks it does is a retard with the logical thoughts of a toothpick.

mmm never played it.

Actully i never seen a D&D board game???

Can we actually get them in the UK

Yeah, D&D isn't a board game...

Anyways, it's probably the nerdiest activity on the face of the earth, but it kicks ass. I play it all the time, and look at me, I turned out fine! *twitches*

My friend's whole family plays it. It's pretty funny, actually.

im a pretty religious person, and i play the game. its not corrupting me or anything

😂

I've played it before, it's fun...definitely very nerdy, but a ton of fun. And not at all satanic 🙄

Play Hungry Hungry Hippos instead--its much cooler.

I used to play a marvel version of D&D it was pretty damn fun, but I didn't love the devil till I played twister with him..so which is truly evil?

I agree with most other oppinions, it has nothing to do with Saten, in fact as a fantasy RPG it has no real connection with real life religions. Also fantasy is usually classic good against evil with good always winning, at least in genric terms. Reminds me of my first game, I was a half elf mage, lawful good. He was eaten by Gnomes in the first half hour. Still, its a lot of fun, and somewhat trendy at uni at the moment.

sort of off topic, but doesnt the rock (wrestler) play D&D? ive heard that he does, id never expect that! what a legend!

Vin Disil, or what ever his name is, the action guy from XXX and Pitch Black is also apparently an avid D&D player.

D&D is about as Satanic as a gardening club, though you may well consider Tulips to be fairly devilish.

What is also isn't, however, is a very good RPG... not that that stops me playing it, because a game is what you make of it, a role-play twice so, but its potential is extremely limited. It actually works far better on computer (e.g. the Baldur's Gate games) where the number chasing and monster slaying doesn't tire as fast.

In my experience, the finest and most intelligent Moderators that I've ever known have all had BtVS quotes in their sig. Coincidence? 😊

My point being: To Ush, you must listen.

D&D is cool tho i do not play it, but d&d has inspired many good rpg game makers to produce great games

FM... what makes you think that?
