I totally get where this is coming from. But if you find you need to drastically change d&d to enjoy it, you might prefer a game by LGBTQ authors written with that kind of play in mind? So: thread of games by LGBTQ authors that are way better than D&D (feel free to add) https://twitter.com/miraclerats/status/1265271847207219200">https://twitter.com/miraclera...
1. Venture and Dungeon by @jaceaddax and @jdragsky are currently only available in playkit form, but they absolutely scratch the gay fantasy roleplay itch. Venture is a game of introspective heroic fantasy and Dungeon... Is about kids playing D&D! https://metagame.itch.io/vendun ">https://metagame.itch.io/vendun&qu...
2. Of course, VenDun in their current forms aren& #39;t playable if you aren& #39;t familiar with the system. Luckily, the original Belonging Outside Belonging game, Dream Askew by @lackingceremony is about a delightfully queer mid-apocalyptic community. https://buriedwithoutceremony.com/dream-askew ">https://buriedwithoutceremony.com/dream-ask...
3. If the apocalypse isn& #39;t your cup of tea, Dream Apart by @ben_rosenbaum is packaged in the same book. It& #39;s a fantasy game set in a shtetl, an eastern European Jewish market town, at the start of the industrial revolution. https://buriedwithoutceremony.com/dream-apart ">https://buriedwithoutceremony.com/dream-apa...
4. Ever wonder what the next edition of dungeons and dragons could look like, but definitely won& #39;t? The #6e jam on itch is full of works by marginalized creators that burn d&d down and build on its ashes https://itch.io/jam/6e ">https://itch.io/jam/6e&qu...
The @sanjenarocoop publishes a wide variety of games in our Short Games Digest, many by LGBT creators including yours truly! https://san-jenaro-co-op.itch.io/ ">https://san-jenaro-co-op.itch.io/">...
6. Speaking of San Jenaro, #iHunt by @machineiv is a witty and real game about capitalism, the gig economy, and killing the shit out of vampires and other monsters

I& #39;m sorry for forgetting to credit @filamena both authors clearly put a lot of work into the game and I don& #39;t want to erase her involvement https://twitter.com/machineiv/status/1265885830914035712?s=19">https://twitter.com/machineiv...
I know a lot of people like DND for it& #39;s old-school mechanical feel and that hasn& #39;t been represented much in this thread so far. Unfortunately that& #39;s not really my preference so I don& #39;t have many examples to recommend. So, LGBT #osr and #sworddream players/designers please reply!
