This is a /v/ related article, which we tolerate because it's relevant and/or popular on /tg/... or we just can't be bothered to delete it.

Vidya gaems are games played with an electronic device, instead of paper, pens, dice, boards, anything traditional, and most of the time omitting your imagination too.

Many traditional or tabletop games (like WH40K and D&D) can now be played as using electronic devices to substitute for their tactile components like maps or minis, proving once again that technology continues to screw up everything that we all wished had remained as it was.

In the dark of the night, when the mods are asleep and the only lights to glisten off a neckbeard are the moon and the monitor, threads of strange, electronic games played by strange, electronic fa/tg/uys may sometimes sprout and grow. While vidya gaem-related gubbins are usually discussed on /v/, /tg/ has accepted that any game can be traditional, and so this media fits right in with the old board games and Tabletop Wargames we all know and love. Some video games are tolerated and even enjoyed by /tg/. Many, however, are not. Video game threads in general, especially games with no corresponding /tg/ version, belong on /v/ instead.

If you are feeling kinda ronery, you could use the electronic heresy device as a virtual tabletop so you can play a tabletop game with your friends out of town.


Games that at least part of /tg/ enjoys

Games that can be used to troll /tg/

  • World of Warcraft
  • any other MMO, but a special level of Baator is reserved for WoWarcrap.
  • jRPGs like Final Fantasy XXXVI-2 "No Really This One's The Final One" edition
  • If you have to ask, the answer is probably "we hate it."
