Short answer, he's exceedingly good at manipulation
Longer answer, despite his propensity for lies and betrayal, his behavior is actually extremely predictable. He always has to win the most and lose the least, to the point it's pathologic for him. No matter what scheme he's involved in, be it one he's cooked up or just stuck his dick in, he'll do everything in his power to make sure it'll benefit him the most.
A side effect of this is that if a scheme benefits you too, he won't change it as long as it benefits him more, though if he catches even a slightest whiff of a way for him to gain even a tiny bit more by fucking you over, he will. Likewise, if he thinks winning is impossible (or he realizes he won't win the most), he'll promptly try to fuck things up in a way that leaves him losing the least.
Sounds easy to work with him then, right? Make an ironclad agreement to split things 49-51 in his favor and he won't stab you in the back, right? Well, remember he's REALLY good at manipulation, and if he thinks letting you think you'll get 49% will net him 52% he will, much less if he thinks he's found a way he can take all 100%, and if he won't tell you if he thinks there's no way you can win if you thinking victory is possible will leave him the least punished/imprisoned there's a reason The Ebon Dragon is noted as the least crippled and imprisoned of the Yozi in 2E

Revelations aren't necessarily the only forms of proofs (unless we're going in that direction of a system, but that's highly doubtful in the context), and as such we can try to have karma be provable to some extent used the tools available to us.
On the less abstract levels, you could have karma be provable in the same way other universal forces are. Scientific method, measurable repeatability etc. Think about how gravity is looked upon.
On a more abstract level it could be argued that if a moral universal rule exists then there could exist universal rules that cause the reality to be in a state where the rule of morality is probable. (Think about it a bit analogically to the completeness theorem.) If then the probability of the moral law was important (as the anon proposed, but I'm not entirely convinced) then we don't have any argument to reject that it could be.
Rather than going in the way of Torah, I was referring to the epistemological disputes of senses versus reason.

Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to TSR-era D&D, derived systems, and compatible content.

Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons as played in the game's first decade—less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching meta-plots and a greater emphasis on player agency.

If you are new to the OSR, welcome! Ask us whatever you're curious about: we'll be happy to help you get started.

The primer was flawed from the get-go. It gave downright bad advice worded in such a manner as to read as edicts. It never had any nuance of its own.

>>92703927
2E has two major eras people who have strong opinions about things they never experienced tend to ignore. There is the initial release which is a strictly better 1E, fixing a lot of the math and keeping what people actually used from 1E and relegating the shit nobody used to optional rules if kept at all. Technically the 2nd release is the same, but it came in a different era where everything surrounding it was what paved the way for the birth of D&D as fantasy superheroes.

It consistely misses the point and is even misleading at times. I think it does more harm than good, personally.

>There is the initial release which is a strictly better 1E
If you like 2e more, more power to you.

When it comes to facts, 2e has departed from
>Dungeons & Dragons as played in the game's first decade
In multiple fundamental ways. The main, in my opinion, are:

1. Exploration rules were largely removed and what was left was botched, for example by increasing movement speed tenfold.

2. The rules for awarding XP are in direct opposition to old-school D&D. There is gold for XP as an "optional" rule, but with a huge caveat against overusing.

3. The DMG is a pile of storytarded Hickmmannfaggotry.

4. Bowdlerizing by removing all remotely controversial elements in AD&D like assassins, demons, devils, prostitutes, and so on.

Why does Japan do classic fantasy so much better than the West, now? Look at Unicorn Overlord compared to M:tG, the latter's just trash in art and plot.
What caused the rot? I thought it was the West that pioneered the genre, which Japan later copied with stuff like Dragon Quest.

>>92697558
Because classic fantasy is to a degree, formulaic. Therefore, the fact that Japan copied it with JRPGs, and then further derived from those formulaic things means that their fantasy ends up following those standards most of the time.
Meanwhile, western games have instead focused far more on novelty. Rather than elves and dwarves, those are seen as too normal, and so there's a push for even more fantastical races like tieflings and whatnot. Combine that with corporations being weirdly concerned about racial stereotypes, and you end up with the case where any new western fantasy is designed to be flashy, but as safe and inoffensive as possible.

To use MtG as an example, what's the most recent set? A bunch of villains in the wild west? What are those villains doing? Not fighting natives, because there are no natives. Instead they're all just robbing banks and trains or getting into shoot-outs with their magical not!guns and wearing cowboy hats regardless of where they came from. It's a theme park loosely based on the wild west and is designed purely for novelty over substance.

>>92702499
Isekai isn't even restricted to the fantasy genre. Youjo Senki is isekai but set in WW1, how exactly is it "MMO-like"?

It is true that many isekai stories are told in generic JRPG fantasyland, but nothing about them is particularly similar to MMOs, they're far more alike to singleplayer Dragon Quest games. A separate VRMMO genre which has little to no overlap with isekai exists, which is probably what you're thinking of, a la Sword Art Online.
