Well, he sure broke that rule, then!

Correct. Regardless, it has been codified that he IS above the law in some cases. Slippery slope is not a fallacy in this instance.

Agreed, it’s a horrendous scam. Thanks, Microsoft!

But you can’t really blame console companies for doing it, because people pay for it. Almost free money for them.

The exception would be those people who are able to actually play all or most of the subscription games on the service. I can see it being a good value in that case.

“120 hour anime series” is fair, but “occasionally click a button” is not. If P5 qualifies for that, then every turn-based JRPG ever does.

Perfectly valid - the GM gets to decide the rules of reality. I personally feel like this guy didn’t think it through well enough for his “no will check” desire to work.

Ugh, Trump’s looking especially hideous in that picture!

Yeah, you can’t even pretend that Trump isn’t above the law when the Supreme Court has literally ruled that he is at their discretion.

I won’t belabor that point, because true polymorph exists, and if this character has that ability it can be assumed that’s the spell he means to use. If he doesn’t then it wouldn’t work if he tried.

All rules CAN be changed, but they need a good reason. This guy is trying to cheat the system (skipping a will check). “I said some words but didn’t actually get consent to cast the spell I’m going to cast” isn’t a good enough reason.

Sounds like you might be on the asexual spectrum.

You’d think he would have kept some younger clones around, just in case. But then, he also was sure that Luke would join him and Anakin wouldn’t betray him even though that’s literally how the Sith work.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen it, but why was the body he was in all rotting and gross if he had freshly cloned bodies to use?

What matters is how will saves with polymorphs work - if you’re taking a person by surprise the mechanics should be consistent. If a genie did the same thing there would still be a will save if they’re doing something that was not the intent of the wisher. Being creative is great, but you have to adhere to the internal rules of the world while doing so.

Yes, and their understanding was that they were going to be given a magical sword. It doesn’t matter if the words used were misleading, what matters is what the person thinks they agreed to.

“Inside every cynical person there is a disappointed idealist.”

The cynic in him would be vindicated by how absolutely shitty things have becomes since he died in 2008, while the disappointed idealist would be heartbroken.
