| | Violenceâ„¢: The Roleplaying Game of Egregious and Repulsive Bloodshed (Tabletop Game) |
comment |
Violenceâ„¢: The Roleplaying Game of Egregious and Repulsive Bloodshed is a dark satire of conventional dungeon-crawling Hack and Slash Role-Playing Games created by Greg Costikyan under the pseudonym of "Designer X". Players take on the role of a sociopathic killer, stalking the streets of a major urban center as they assault, rob, rape, and murder innocent people and take whatever they have.Although it looks like a conventional Tabletop Game, Violenceâ„¢ is actually a Genre Deconstruction and Author Tract against the mindless violence of popular RPGs and Video Games. The author, known only as "Designer X", holds naked contempt for his audience, his publisher, and himself, admitting openly that he's only writing this game to make a quick buck and insulting his readers for wasting their time with such puerile entertainment.The game was published in 1999 by Hogshead Publishing, but has been released as open source under the Creative Commons license. It can be found here. |

comment |
The Sociopath: Players are forced to take this role. Notably, while there are pages of rules for weapons and combat and treasure, there are no rules whatsoever for relationships or human interaction. The closest the game gets is a "Sports Lore" skill which can be used for making small talk. |

Collateral Damage |
| | Violenceâ„¢: The Roleplaying Game of Egregious and Repulsive Bloodshed (Tabletop Game) / int_85c7446b |
comment |
Collateral Damage: The section of Combat marked "Innocent Bystanders" makes a point about how slinging bullets in a crowded city can lead to people getting hurt badly, through pointing out the consequences of a gun battle (if it can really be called such) between a violent scumbag with an Uzi (your typical Violence player character) and a little old lady with a revolver in her apartment. The old lady got two shots off before getting cut down, and neither one of them hit Uzi guy, but they did go through the wall (made of cheap modern wallboard which can't stop bullets worth crap), and some poor immigrant in another apartment packed full of them is now without much of her lower arm. Meanwhile, Uzi guy got off twenty shots of which maybe three hit the old lady. The prewar brick wall behind her absorbed the impact of most of the bullets, but the rest went through a window, shattering it and resulting in casualty number two, a bike messenger who was riding below the window when it shattered and is now bleeding on the sidewalk and screaming bloody murder. Meanwhile, whatever bullets didn't go halfway through the bricks of a building across the street went through another window along the way, grazing the head of the kitty sleeping on the windowsill (casualty number three, currently bleeding and yowling beneath the couch) and possibly also hitting the personal trainer who lives there, who is now prone on the floor and calling 911 on his cellphone. Needless to say, there's a reason that the law frowns upon firing weapons in city limits. |

Competitive Balance: Painfully averted. While there are rules for standard RPG mechanics (character creation, weapons prices, skills, etc.), it's clear that "Designer X" simply wrote them via stream-of-consciousness, with no regard for how the game would play on a competitive level. Then again, how many rules do you really need to chop up innocent bystanders? |

Drugs Are Good |
| | Violenceâ„¢: The Roleplaying Game of Egregious and Repulsive Bloodshed (Tabletop Game) / int_f0f69743 |
comment |
Drugs Are Good: Played with. The section on Drugs is basically an extended Author Tract that can be summarized as "Drugs aren't that bad, but they can be addictive and dangerous, so stick to alcohol because it's safer," along with some guidelines for roleplaying various effects. |

You Bastard!: Sure, there are rules, but Violenceâ„¢ is more accurately seen as a long and detailed rant aimed at hack-and-slash roleplayers, with tables and game mechanics sprinkled throughout. |

Get-Rich-Quick Scheme: "Designer X" points out the various ways RPG publishers (and the readers) can make more money selling needless game supplements and accessories. |
