won a few matches of overwatch on ps4 but the highlight was using my headset and speaking at length exclusively in a austin powers accent bc life is too short for worries

vampires don't even need to drain humans to death is the thing and most vampire groups frown on doing that because it causes Problems and is another body to hide

hunter is about being a thin line against the night and the nature of the 'power' of the Messengers is that it will inevitably drive it's users more and more into the hunt until they're walking furious soldiers against the night with barely any person left in them

a full Zeal virtue is just a killing machine, stoic wall, or complete black-and-white judge (it's usually killing machine)

a lot of hunters in fact turn out as bad as what they fight after a while because they start to see the rest of humanity as a bit more expendable if in the long run it will destroy the supernatural

123
it's also old world of darkness so like
hunters have their Own Magic it's just kind of shit in comparison to the ability to turn someone into a chair or turn into a wolfman

but yknow, i got a gun and judge powers so i'm sure i'll be just fine
also yeah literally the exact 'super humans' you're on about is literally just Hunter: The Reckoning and to a far, far lesser extent Hunter: The Vigil, wherein they're blessed with spooky fucking pseudo magic/supernatural power and told to INHERIT THE EARTH and TAKE BACK THE NIGHT etc though hunters are so spread out and sparse that there's not really any coordinated takes on what that means beyond your own cells in cities, which are almost always groups of Imbued (hunters) who all got Woke together in the same incident.

so there are some hunters who honest to god want to help any monsters they can and see the good in the ones that have it, and there are the standard KILL EM ALL losers, etc. it varies a lot depending on your creed but only a few are outright Kill All Monsters Forever

for example i'm gonna be playing a judge creed, someone who believes in finding the guilty and the innocent and that there are monsters/supernaturals that aren't so bad and are relatively alright compared to some of the fucking corrupt, awful people given that yeah, most of society? it's run by the supernatural. vampire clans run cities and mages are constantly trying to do much of the same- they clash a bit- and vampires are frequently bogged down by infighting and politics

werewolves are like, furry hippies? not sure

demons are way too fucking busy for your stupid politics because the literal actual creatures from hell are making cults and our cult has to be way cooler than theirs also theirs is into human sacrifice and mass slaughter

demon is pretty fucking rad

one more edit: hunters are vaguely organized via a website called hunternet or some shit but they actively don't use it for 'meetups' or whatever because, well, it's on the internet and is as easy to browse as, say, this very forum so some vampire could happen to be posing as a hunter on the forum, meet up with you, and gun you down like the stupid bastard you are. however it's a general rule that most if not all hunters by a few weeks in know that other hunters exist and they're not the only Imbued out there hearing voices in their head or seeing words that don't exist

sometimes when i try to drift off to sleep, i'll be just about to fall asleep and half-dreaming before something happens to jolt me awake
today, i was drifting off to sleep and half-dreaming of just being in bed, half-asleep, vaguely aware of something near me or watching me. the thing that jolted me awake was when it felt like arms grabbed every part of me all of a sudden, countless of them all around me.

so you know a fun morning

could you perchance explain what was going on that they missed because i have no intention of sitting and watching overlord but am curious why so many people like it over all other isekai

it has almost entirely been used as a political thing by both sides and there are very few other jokes it has been applied to

I'd much rather be a non-player character than be politically correct. :P   
grow up

yea, he's doing some balancing around the three lines we're using to make them Not Broken in a mixed party. i don't blame him, since hunter vampire and werewolf are like the closest to the same power balance and even they need some tweaking

trust me if balance wasn't an issue i'd be popping some fuckin demon up in here but alas

i've been running The Sprawl for both irl and online friends

today i evoked actual emotional response from one player and thus i have concluded i have succeeded in GMing and may move on to bigger, better things
edit: also i'm gonna be playing a wod game for the first time and am moderately looking forward to it but cant pick between a hunter or a vampire, i'm leaning hunter

ironically, OG sao is barely isekai

it's also the worst shit ever made since b-train reared its fugly head and i took great masochistic pleasure in watching literally every second of all mainline sao content and the fact that the 3rd season has premiered has my whole body eager to burn in fucking flames

i am eighteen, am not going to college for another year, have no job, am a province away from all my friends, and do nothing but wake up at 1pm and waste the day doing nothing of value to society besides exist

this can't be all that life has to offer
this can't be.

there has only ever been one good isekai it's called log horizon and it's only good because it's got fantasy video game politics down fucking flat

all other isekai is trite garbage at worst and disgustingly mediocre at best
