    D&D General WotC Continues D&D's Advance To Digital First Brand

    What Geek Media Do You Refuse To Partake In?

    What Geek Media Do You Refuse To Partake In?

    Romantasy. I find it to be complete flaming garbage. I enjoy romantic fantasy like Valdemar or Rhapsody but romantasy is awful.

    Watch the last half of season 1 or just s1 finale into season 2. The first few episodes could be slow but overall, one of best series of all time.

    Cosmere picked up by Apple TV

    Cosmere is a slow burn versus novels like Mistborn. It has an excellent set of characters and I like the unique magic system but it takes a long time to peel back the layers.

    Good. He learned the lesson with Wheel of Time and has been very public about not letting his IP get damaged.

    Goodman Games: Our Efforts Have Been Mischaracterized

    Agreed. I am more scared of the silent ones who hide and are primed to explode.

    Goodman Games: Our Efforts Have Been Mischaracterized

    I prefer them to air out their dirty laundry so it can be countered. Ideas that fester metastasize.
