    What RPGs genres are lacking?

    I think SWAT/or R6-likes would be interesting. In the game Ready or Not, players lead a police tactical unit to respond to emergency situations. The players are given the 911 distress call, intelligence about the culprit(s) (giving information about what tactics or arms they might use and...

    Diamond Distributors Asks Bankruptcy Court For Ownership of Publishers' Consignment Inventory [UPDATED]

    Optimization and optimizers...

    Optimized for me means Optimized within the confines of the entire game, not just a class. I.e. you play Bugbear Polearm Master Sentinel Opportunity Attack Fighter because it is broken because there is a 0% chance this happens naturally without browsing Reddit.

    Optimization and optimizers...

    If optimizing wasn't encouraged behavior by default the game shouldn't make optimizing good. Case in point: Swords & Wizardry Complete Revised Does having high dex matter? Yes. Does it matter all that much above a 14? Also no. Here's 5e Do higher ability scores matter? Yes. Do they ever...

    I already ran this a month ago. I liked the layout but yeah the final rooms are a bit flat. Definitely needed more coloring in in advance.
