    I agree, Paranoia is great and gets very little love these days.

    ENnies To Ban Generative AI From 2025

    I am generally pro-Ai and have no issue with it in most context but I think this is appropriate. This is an award for best creativity and Ai will cheapen it and reduce quality.

    What are you reading in 2025?

    I am starting the new Stormlight Archive book and honestly having a little bit of a tough time getting back into it. RPG book-wise I'm reading some new supplements for Ironsworn Starforged to add to my toolkit in the game. Starforged is pretty awesome.

    What do you use Chat GPT for?

    I really enjoy using it to generate visuals for my solo rpg sessions. I input my descriptions and it (after some edits) produces something much more lasting than my imagined scenes. I've also used it to help elaborate on my recap writing. It really has come a long way in the last couple years.

    Henry Cavill's Warhammer 40K Show Is Happening

    Yeah, he would definitely need some personal attachment to take on that kind of project but I think his style could work nicely.

    Henry Cavill's Warhammer 40K Show Is Happening

    Henry Cavill is great and I think we have a good shot at a quality adaptation with him involved. I want to see Mike Flanagan join the team.

    GMing: What If We Say "Yes" To Everything?

    I think that players need something to bounce off of or friction in their role playing otherwise they will lose interest. If the game is just let's make up whatever silly story we want with no restrictions or guidelines, and the players figure that out, I think they will lose interest. Kind of...

    TSR Having multiple dungeons available to the players

    The only down side that I see with this approach is that it could be more work on the DM to prepare enough to run several options in a session. Could lead to wasted prep time depending on how fleshed out these dungeons are. If you are randomly generating or good on the fly then I think it's...

    Best Horror Movies of All Time

    I really like The Grudge. The Sarah Michelle Gellar one. It's aesthetic has stuck with me for for 20 years.

    D&D General What is your most prized Dungeons and Dragons Product?

    I really still love my 3.5 core rule books and Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting I bought when I was 15. I will always cherish those books.

    D&D General How Often Should a PC Die in D&D 5e?

    My gut feeling was PC death isn't really the vibe I go for in D&D but after considering it a little, with all the resurrection type of effects in D&D, I think it should be a more common thing. Kind of like it was in Dragon Ball. It was hugely inconvenient and people had to gather dragon balls...
