Unexpectedly wholesome. I love it!

Last night one player said of another, "wow, that cowboy accent drifted to southern real fast."

I was like, "we got a house rule: we don't talk about accent drift at this table, buddy"

What?!? That's the BEST part of dnd!!

We give the gm shit over this regularly, and it's so freaking funny.

I'm bilingual, and there are certain accents I can only do in Dutch, and certain accents I do only in English.

When I switched games with Dutch friends from an English to a Dutch GM, my friends were like "she does the BEST Russian accent".

Yeah sorry, I can literally only do it in English, just like my incredibly racist Arab accent only works in Dutch (and preferably not at all).

WAT NOU ACCENT!

This is hilarious. Now I am uber curious what other accent/language combos there are. Also, does your Nederlands influence your Engels? I mean, it must a little, right? So what would a French influenced English language Russian accent sound like??

does your Nederlands influence your Engels?

I'd like to think it doesn't, but yeah, I can ALWAYS hear when a dutch person speaks english, so it probably does. Also, "Dunglish" is one of funniest/worst accents.

All my accents end up Irish/Canadian/South African hybrid.

Lean into the silliness and you'll get over it faster. People should be more willing to be silly in general, honestly.

Ah that kinda role-playing. Friends should be supportive yep.

They showed up and are paying attention? That's a great player right there!

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (3 children)

So, anyway, first time players start with no clothes.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 18 hours ago

[–] okwhateverdude@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Oh! That explains why the dungeons part! I wasn't certain, so I packed my gimp mask just in case. Gimme a sec. Gonna go get changed! OMG you guys I'm so excited and nervous!

I remember my DM in an early game pushing and pushing me to do something stupid because I wasn't apparently good at roleplaying because .... i didn't do what my character wouldn't fucking do. I cringed at him the whole time he walked me through it and then was so proud for getting me out of my routine.

I know how to act motherfucker it's called dedication to a character, not do random shit to prove you're "creative"

I will be laughing at rather than with you, but i do that for everybody.
