Is the AP (Actual Porn) Debacle destined to be the Great Crunch Debate of 2018?!? I sure hope not. It’s lame.

What I don't find entertaining is being told I'm "not doing it right because Matt Mercer is the DM King of the right and true way of DMing". ... Chris Perkins is the King of DMing. I do believe the PAX Celebrity games predate Mr Mercer and his enterprise. (I actually don't care, as I'm a self avowed hater of D&D.) Plus if you want to get into who is really the King of GMing/Actual Play you have so pretty big contenders. There is Adam Koebel of Dungeon World/Roll20 fame. There is APGamingReal (look up his backlog if you don't believe me). You also have itmeJP and his whole enterprise (games like West Marches, etc). Plus you have the OneShotPodcast, HyperRabbitRPG (makers of Death From Above), and countless others. This whole 'Critical Role/Matt Mercer' thing is just today's iteration of "OMG, D&D is the only game that exists, I'm so new at this hobby!" You can be grumpy about it (as is your right as a grognard), or you can embrace the stream of new interest to the hobby. If anyone gives you shit about Matt Mercer, make them run the game. When they fall flat on their face (most people do), they'll learn to shut their pie hole or move on to another game to find their unicorn GM (and you'll be rid of them). You have to take interest where you can find it. When I bought my first bow, the shop had posters from the Hunger Games hanging inside. Wouldn't you know it, the sport saw a large spike of interest from teenage girls. Some people grumbled that they had to show up to matches with polo's on now instead of blood stained camo, but overall the community embraced the new blood (because that's the only sensible thing to do). Here is my Unsolicited Advice: You don't have to play with every random person. New people are great, but that doesn't mean they necessarily belong at your table. Find people of like mind (new or old) to game with. Trial people out. Game somewhere public and wait to invite people back to your home game until you are sure they are a good match for your group.

I get the sense people are missing the point of the "like watching porn to learn about sex" line. Porn sex is different from personal sex. You're cheating to the camera, engaged in a separate plot line, being extra vocal, and are in the top percentiles of physical fitness, attractiveness, and hungness. The production necessarily affects the playtime in both cases.
Ditto learning human social relationships from reality TV and casual conversation from a Joss Whedon production.
If you're not aware of the narrative and the showmanship, you could fool yourself into setting very unrealistic expectations about reality.

OMG remember when WoD was the new hotness and had its own video game and TV show, so the WWE brought out a vampire wrestler named "Gangrel"?

There are a lot of wrestlers with careers cut short by injuries or health problems. His is the only one I know that got put on the shelf through bad IP management.

The Brood had a fire entrance, surrounded by fire and rising from beneath the stage. And he would spit blood he drank from a chalice. Edge and Christian as his vampire kids that went on to be so much better as shitty jerks.
