I find it very funny when ppl comment on the morality of a ship that features immoral characters. Like, this goes for any ship in VTM and isn't restricted to just the shilo/grefgore one. Let's be honest with ourselves, this is VTM. The handbook literally starts with "there are no heroes". Every ship in The Suckening is toxic. Like, by nature.

It's just really weird to be trying to call out ppl for shipping characters in a context in which everyone sucks (literally!). It's fine to be icked out by a ship but don't like. Try and make a point abt the morality of it. I promise you that we're aware.

Thinking about Vyncent's character makes me genuinely upset and not in the way where it's because of how sad or interesting his character is. (This rant will have references to important PD episodes through-out the entire series)

Vyncent's character in PD was robbed. Almost every character moment was either a forced in flaw that took one episode to overcome or it relied on the other PD members to be there.

During the S2 Training Arc, Vyncent had a mini-arc about overcoming his trust issues. Trust issues that had never been brought up before that and still haven't been mentioned after. Even ignoring that, trust issues make absolutely no sense for his character and even go against his characterization.

Vyncent's biggest flaw wasn't ever trust issues, it was his indecisiveness. He'd always had somebody to listen to or turn to when there was a problem and because of that, he never made an effort to make decisions on his own.

This flaw makes sense for his character as it builds off of the fact that Vyncent had always been mimicking somebody or following orders from them and never was the one to decide his own actions. He had The Greats when he was younger, and S1 and early S2, to guide him. When he didn't have the Greats, he had William.

This flaw was also brought up in the S2 Grayscale Arc, where when William made the decision to help David, Vyncent wasn't sure if he agreed but went along with it anyways because he trusted William's directions. Vyncent was later shown regretting this while hiding in the elevator, and wishing he could think of a plan to fix things. (This is specifically brought up in the Vyncent in a Vator song.)

This moment could've been the perfect catalyst for an Arc about Vyncent's Inductiveness, but it was left there.

Not only that, but as I said earlier, trust issues actively contradicts his own characterization. He was actually very trusting throughout the entirety of PD, which also builds off of his indecisiveness and how he trusts others to make decisions for him.

He had a perfectly good flaw that made sense for his character, but instead they chose to railroad one in for some god forsaken reason.

I didn't even bring up how Vyncent has almost no meaningful dynamic with anyone besides William, how them going to his home world that he had been ripped away from lasted only a couple of episodes, how his character is often used to develop William's instead of his own, or how generally inconsistent his character is.

Vyncent Sol isn't even my favorite character.

Sincerely, Anonymous

People will hate on Grizz for the dumbest shit and I'm so tired of it. "He always plays the same pretty boy character!"

No? Neither Dakota (PD) or Taxxi (Fated) are even close to that.

(Also, even if they were all the same, they are his characters.) "He always plays cis white men!!" He is a cis white man and those are his characters.

(This is also just not true)

"He always plays the pretty boy and since he always plays cis white men it means he's racist!!!"

See point A and point B. (Yes, I have actually been told this and it wasn't even on JRWItwt)

People are really expecting him to be making the most ground-breaking, interesting characters and it's annoying. JRWI, despite being called The JRWI Show, is not a TV show. It's a D&D podcast with four people who just want to have fun, and thinking that you have the authority to try and tell somebody that they are wrong for making a character that they'll enjoy playing is incredibly entitled. Grizzly could make the same character for every single campaign and he still wouldn't have done ANYTHING WRONG.

I like one-shots and more layed back campaigns. I feel like riptide has that issue, that the pre-planned story somewhat brudens the flow sometimes, where it has to stop to check off a plot point. Campaigns where there's more derailing and overall freedom from the dm (and players themselves) are much more enjoyable

Maybe it's a bad take but I feel like people expect a bit too much representation wise from jrwi

Like don't get me wrong representation is good and it's not wrong to push for more diverse characters but jrwi isn't the first place i'd go to do so

To elaborate: I feel like a lot of people put a lot of pressure on the crew to make more diverse characters and then get upset when the representation isn't great. If you make someone rush writing a character with experiences vastly different then their own (especially if that experience is that of a marginalized or otherwise minority group) there is a high chance that it won't be up to par with your standards.

There's a lot more that I could go into but it's already a lot longer than I meant it to be, sorry 💀
