Anon, I am not a superior GM or writer. My villains are admittedly shallow as fuck. I'm the type of person who when deciding how to throw a challenging wall of a foe at my players, I set them up against a martial artist god wearing a bear suit that talks in xian xia cliches for my amusement. I'm the type of game master who sets up their villain of the week as a demon playing at being a city's mobster kingpin because he couldn't hack it at anything more grandiose, and repeatedly taunts and harasses the party while sending many disposable minions and quirky mercenaries to fight them in his stead because he's secretly a coward afraid of the remote possibility of losing and being humiliated for it, solely because I know that my party will eventually smash through all of that and give him the most humiliating beatdown of his life. I'm the kind of hack that sets up a game where the players build an terrifying monster-filled dungeon filled with all manner of traps and treasure they designed themselves...and then sends a bunch of overpowered stupid teenagers straight out of the average isekai anime slop story to try and tear it down, and watch the party work overtime as they do everything possible to keep their precious dungeon safe from those brats.
None of that shit is getting a Pulitzer. Hell, I'm pretty sure I'm not even on the level of the guy who made that black knight BBEG up above. I'm a hack. I admit it. And I won't ever pretend I'm not anything more than that. But I would rather bash my brains in with a copy of the D&D Dungeon Master's Guide than ever use ChatGPT and pretend whatever it said was my work. Especially if it's to get one up on some other loser on 4chan. I don't have dignity, but I still have some fucking standards.
