    D&D General Do THIS, WotC!

    A player option book, but one that is focused on less on species and sub-classes and provide more options to customize characters through feats. More opportunities to pursue a facsimile of multiclassing through feats rather than traditional multiclassing rules. Get us closer to that fabled...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Oh damn, then I'm all set!

    Doctor Which

    You never forget your first, and for me that Eccleston. I get why he left, but he was absolutely phenomenal; and I agree with @Riley's assessment, to take nothing away from Tennant's run (which was also quite brilliant)

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Millennials are ruining the white bread industry! But what if I have been shot repeatedly in the face and neck with lasers and can no longer provide my own? Girl I am a diabetic trans woman, I have a literal weekly pill organizer. Last I took the time to actually count I think I take 18 pills...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    RIP to my 30's Where do I sign in for my complementary neckbeard and Greyhawk box set?

    General video game discussion

    I mean, I've been singing the praises of both Blue Prince and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 in this and the other thread and as far as I can tell they both in the Steam sale. Both are GOTY candidates (and the latter is the clear frontrunner right now). Not new, but Control is also included and is...

    Congrats To 2025's ENnie Nominees!

    There's a couple of factors, as far as I can see: First, and I think the most important, is the available design space. When there were a handful or even a few dozen TTRPGs there was plenty of design space for a game system to be a "toolbox and some broad guidelines" and be popular and...

    Phase 5 of the MCU is over

    Yeah, looking at that list I can say that I only actually saw one of them: The Marvels, which I thought it was an absolutely blast. I do want to check out the Thunderbolts any eventually Guardians 3 but very little else in the MCU (including the TV shows) holds very little appeal anymore. I am...

    Video Games You Wish Existed

    I would love a newer Magic: The Gathering game with a single-player mode; I loved the classic and it would be a great way to get back into the game since it's changed so much from (the last expansion I bought was Weatherlight)

    Congrats To 2025's ENnie Nominees!

    I have been meaning to check out Triangle Agency for some time now. As a fan of Control (and Alan Wake 2) I've been super pumped to get to play a Federal Bureau of Control/SPC-style game. Nice to see it nominated for so many awards!

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Congratulations to all the Texans who will now be able to enjoy as many McFlurrys as their hearts desire.

    General video game discussion

    We're reaching the end of the AAA-studio system as it buckles under its weight and the AA and indie studios continue to run laps around them producing higher quality games at a fraction of the cost and much higher overall job satisfaction.

    Optimization and optimizers...

    Well, I was responding to someone talking about poor balance in what, I think at least at the time, was a reference to 5e. I agree that 5e is the most balanced version of D&D. Especially the 2024 version. That's a really low bar, and one it doesn't clear by a lot, but I definitely think it's...

    What do you want him to say? The man has a voracious appetite for set dressing.

    Civilizations, RANKED!

    Well, you've already discovered the one thing Civ VI definitively has over its predecessors: you can play it on the go. If you compare it to Civ IV one-to-one you'll walk away disheartened, but if you have that itch for "one... more... turn...", and if you're a Civ fan you absolutely do, it's...
