The ideological posturing is part of the quirky appeal of the OSR to me

It’s kinda like hip-hop, always gotta be frontin’, but no-one but the asshole contingent takes it seriously

Whether or not “its a little bit fun to pretend to be a huge dick about this thing with zero actual stakes” is a thing you can enjoy with a grain of salt is probably up to personal taste

I would have hoped that the posturing in DCC was so blatantly tongue in cheek as to be obvious, but then there are always a lot of assholes out there who have to ruin it by not being so
