Thread 96909592

Internet artist/tumblr funnyman Johnathan "Bogleech" Wocjik finally sort of made available for public purchase the (used to be)-edgy pokémon TRPG Mortasheen, first announced as coming out in a few weeks back in 2011, has finally temporarily released to the public - PDF and physical copies are being sold on itch 'til the 14th. Anyone else looked at the game? First impressions?

>>96909592 (OP)
He's a huge obnoxious faggot and the reason this took so long to come out is because he wasted years on tumblr arguing about feminism with random people. I have zero expectations for it to be good, but people who eat up his repulsive art will probably pretend like it's a good game because they skimmed through and looked at the pictures.

>>96909692
Fucking this. He's never finished a damn thing in his life and I understand what that's like as someone who has trouble with it, but the reasons for it are so stupid is infuriating. Maybe we'd have gotten this two decades ago if he didnt spend all his time crying about endangered parasites getting unfairly thrown under the bus because dolphins are cute, or turning his friend circles into witch hunty echo chambers, or doing a homestuck, or whatever else he did by the time I realized he was a cunt.

>>96909901
Except he did? He released this book? He literally finished it. Maybe it sucks, it probably is SJW wokeslop, but he demonstrably finished something. You can go buy it right now.

>>96909939
>You can go buy it right now.
I don't want to.

>>96909939
>buy my book
Go die of a parasite, John

>>96910165
I'm not saying to buy his SJW slop. I'm saying you *can* buy it, not that you ought to, you illiterate faggot. I'm simply pointing out he HAS finished something as evidenced by the fact that said finished something is available for purchase.

>>96909939
Even though it was finished, saying someone “can’t finish a damn thing” is absolutely a valid criticism if the project is almost a decade an a half past its intended release. Especially when the product is literally a PDF. The only valid excuse for a delay that long is if he had been physically prevented from working on it.

Is this like Pokethulhu but not fun?

>>96910223
Is Pokethulhu fun?

>>96909692
IIRC the original reason why the game got delayed was some issues with the original publisher. He then put the project on the back-burner and it languished for years without progress. It's not like he hasn't done anything in that time: he has an ongoing webcomic-thing and has published multiple books, so it seems he just lost interest on the project and stopped working on it until recently.

Ah yes the whiny little bitch who slid into my DMs tried to turn me and several other people against my friend because she watched MLP like 10 years ago.

>>96912829
Details?

>>96912870

Pretty straightforward, this girl I know and her weird edgelord girlfriend (not that there's anything wrong with that, she made some pretty good shitposts) were lightly active on the pony side of Tumblr back when it was in the first few seasons and Bogleech started reblogging their shit and calling them pedos for liking colourful horses.

Then he started contacting everyone who knew them and begging us to cut ties with them. I basically just called him a fag and blocked him.

Found out a while later he has some people working for him who make a lot of his website's content but don't get properly credited for it.

>>96909692
actually purchased the book and he rewrote the main villain to be an allegory for arguing with people on the internet

>>96913751
He sounds like a bit of an idiot. Everyone knows that you don't argue online, there's nothing that will force your opponent to concede, even if they're blatantly wrong. The objective is only ever to educate the "audience", by making your points as clearly as possible and clarifying them where necessary, but never to engage with the retard who isn't there to listen or learn but just to shitpost.

So if you find yourself replied to by some retard who argues against your points by "hydra-countering" with a bunch of tangential questions or distractions, you quite literally ignore them, repeat your initial post (if it's already clear enough, otherwise clarify your post first for the audience), and move on.

I can already smell the kind of thing you are.

I never cared much about mortasheen, but the Abathrael is a pretty cool design

So, who's gonna bite the bullet and link a PDF so that we can all see if it's shit or not?

>>96912904
Was one of them his ex? I remember him mentioning an emotionally abusive BPDemon ex girlfriend who I think was pretty active in the furry/pony scenes for a while.

>>96916196

Absolutely not, but that might explain why he had such a weird grudge against pony stuff.

>emotionally abusive BPDemon ex girlfriend
You know, I use to think this too, but after knowing Jonathan like I do now, I wouldn't be surprised if she was a completely innocent party.

>>96912904
I remember that. I tried to convince him not to do that shit and he ignored me.

He did similar to me and my friends when I blocked his wife for being a psycho. Then he threatened me personally to never tell anyone he did that. The only time he ever called me a friend was in the same sentence he called me a pedophile. Pretty sure he put a hit out on me that lead to a callout post that lost me every friend I'd had for 12 years, some of them irl friends.

With letters written in fire, fuck bog.

got screenshots/proof? don't like the guy either but I don't wanna repeat stuff without evidence

>>96917075
were you one of those people who was there when he let his wife moderate his forum and she banned a bunch of people 'as a joke' and it created a massive schism in his friend group cause he defended her completely?

and it was extra weird cause there was an obnoxious neo nazi troll on the forum who kept race baiting in threads for months that everyone was BEGGING him to ban, and he never touched him

reddit

I like how every time bogleech is brought up on /tg/ or /co/ the threads immediately fill with people talking about their awful experiences with him

>>96917229
He's a genuinely unpleasant sack of shit. It's no wonder that so many people have bad things to say about him. The only claim to fame he has these days is being somewhat popular on tumblr, a platform that has no fucking benefits to anyone on there, because he leaves snide replies on a billion posts per day.

>>96917175
Yeah. I dont know what was up with that. They suddenly shacked up with no fanfaire and the next day the entire forum burned down. The vibe was pretty damn friendly before that happened, even with the users that were sort of pariahs. He had this weird narrative later that we bullied him constantly, but he didnt interact with us at all. I think he had a total of like three posts there.

I use to think he was the coolest fucking dude as a teenager and grew up to see him as nothing but an insufferable prat who's constantly bending knees to the worst fucking people

also fuck him for changing harlequeen's design. probably was worried it was 'sexist' or some stupid bullshit. can't even find the original anymore cause he scrubbed it from the internet.

>>96919954
Takes literally 10 seconds to find lmao, far from the most egregious of design butcherings he's done over the years - look at like, any of the arthropoids

>>96919954
>>96920312
Nah the new design is better
Tit-mandibles are far more interesting looking visually than just regular misshapen boobs
The face is also an improvement, this one got weird-ass puffy cheeks that make it look fairly non-threatening
But I generally do not particularly love his older artstyle, it was just ugly-for-ugly sake, more Ren & Stimpy-coded and less biological

>>96920402
I agree
She's way hotter like this

>>96909592 (OP)
Overall I liked the Monster creation and related mechanics as well as the overall lore and aesthetic.

Bogleech is also still a fag

>>96917175
Also if you were on the forums too, nice to see you. Hope you're doing well anon.

>>96915853
I think it has some neat concepts and ideas, if you can ignore Bog it can be fun

I like the Stinkfishes personally

>>96909592 (OP)
>Johnathan "Bogleech" Wocjik
I thought he trooned out. Guess I was thinking of someone else.

>>96919954
I idolized him as a kid. He showed me that no matter who you are, no matter what your interests were, you weren't alone - someone out there would care about what you liked and thought. That your interests and your ideas matter. That you're cool for being different.

What a crock of shit.

>>96922962
I remember he was talking about identifying as "non-binary" for a bit but then some transmed cussed him out for being "appropriative" against people born with intersex conditions or DSD or whatever. It seems to have worked.

>ummm what if Poemon but everything is creepy and gross!
Fuckin lazy ass shit. I can't help but hate faggots who have zero originality in their bones trying to latch onto other peoples work by making an inversion of it. I hope this fag gets gelded by dogs.

>>96924047
how can anyone be this bad at tumblr

>>96924246
Nothing is original anymore anon
