TTRPG Rulebook Made with AI Faces Community Backlash
kingpin000 · reddit · 2026-07-16
A tabletop (TTRPG) player with nearly 20 years of experience shared their journey of using AI tools to create and publish a personal rulebook. They used Claude for professional typesetting and ChatGPT for illustrations, spending about 4 months to complete a proof-of-concept book and open-sourcing it for free. However, after publicly disclosing their use of AI, they faced severe backlash and attacks from anti-AI factions within the community, even being mistaken for a professional writer about to be banned by the industry. The author expressed frustration with this hostile environment and asked if others had experienced similar malice for using AI.
