Something like Buffy probably has many, many inspirations, it wanted to flip the Horror genre on it's head. Also keep in mind that 'Blade' first appeared in '73 in Marvel comics, predating the Rice novel by three years (but not the short story '68 vs '76). Something like True Blood seems to...

While I agree that glasses + magnifying glass for a sub 50 year old is a bit of overkill, but are your reading glasses actually recent prescription glasses? I'm 49, have been wearing glasses for most of my live for seeing things correctly at a distance. I actually couldn't read well ever without...

At the time of the fallout Rein-Hagen was in his early 30s, can't call that a kid anymore nor young (it's over when you hit 30! ;) ). Many folks going into business, especially pnp RPG business, have no business being business owners. They can be great people, great creators, but they are most...

And that would be a function I wouldn't trust LLMs with, most things outside of 'creative' writing I wouldn't trust an LLM with. Why? Because I don't know the actual answer, never ask a LLM a question you don't know the answer to, so you can check the actual output. So, if a book actually harms...

Looks at Pathfinder That game actually overtook D&D for a while...

Just like ENworld isn't representative of the RPG industry, neither is this poll. You're better off tracking product sales on something like DTRPG (which is difficult, but maybe track which ones get the bronze ranking and when). As an example, we have "Four Against Darkness - Expanded Edition"...

But isn't cash green in your part of the woods... ;)

You would be able to kick those privacy ending devices out of orbit and into the sun... Superman moves at Mach 9+, do you expect the high resolution systems to be able to track that? Superman has been known to fly faster then light...

Maybe start off by using the right terms and the right context in the description. I doubt that anyone would decline their lifesaving medicine that were developed with AI. Or all the decades old software tools for the disabled. AI is a very broad and old field in computer science, the more...

Unless of course you go Roger "Verbal" Kint on your 'normal' persona... Move totally different from you superpower persona to your normal persona. And you can avoid the cameras with the earlier mentioned IR LEDs, so there is no movement to analyze. I think that hiding your voice might be more...

In Britain they get equipped with sporks... ;)

But part of the Superman powers set is that they turn any pair of glasses into a hat of disguise... ;) We also have an issue in modern times, where to change? All the phone booths have disappeared or is that also part of the Superman powers set? Manifest phone booth... Instead of reporter, I...

I would advise that only if everyone agrees unconditionally. As that opens the door to all kinds of shenanigans.

The problem isn't D&D, the problem is overly hostile people when your propose something to 'improve' the game. And apparently the game wasn't perfect already because someone thought it was a good idea to propose... As for 'forcing' combat in D&D, I would say that it's traditionally been very...

I've seen that too, and trying to 'educate' that player during the game and out of the game didn't help. What did help was a session 0 with pretty clear rules and the group together building the party. The party group has never worked as well together, efficiency. Very occasionally there are...
