    Critical Role to Run Grimdark Daggerheart Miniseries

    I'm surprised how I haven't seen anyone yet bring up Age of Umbra's similarity to Tainted Grail. In AoE society has fractured because of a mysterious entity (The Umbra) that is only held back by small communities who tend sacred pyres in the Halcyon age. In Tainted Grail society has fractured...

    Anyone played MIR (now on Kickstarter)?

    What I'd like to understand is a bit more about some of the powers you can have and the different types of characters you can play. I've seen quite a bit on the world and the inspiration behind the game which is great but I still don't know really anything about guardians and diplomats and the...

    Anyone played MIR (now on Kickstarter)?

    I haven't seen any talk at all on this rpg unless I missed it. MIR - Oath It's apparently originally a French game so this is mostly a translation as I understand. I'm not sure what to make of it. The artwork is gorgeous and unique (to me), but although I read through it I'm not terribly...

    Embracing AI in TTRPGs - Enhancing, Not Replacing, Creativity

    I think many people's exposure to AI in the rpg space is AI generated art, particularly companies that seem to have generated art, done minimal work and slapped it on a commercial product. That is not an ethical use of AI. I'm seeing AI used ethically (IMO) to do the initial portions...

    How well can a dedicated RPG GenAI perform?

    I am really keen to see how AI might be used for computer games, particularly for NPC behaviour. If developed well it could be quite revolutionary in that space.

    How well can a dedicated RPG GenAI perform?

    I believe this in a lot of industries now. It's the idea of the "co-pilot". Excuse the Microsoft term, but I think it's apt. I'm told a lot of commercial artists use AI to generate a number of concept storyboards for inspiration and then either work fresh or modify one to make their own works...

    Hey @Gorgon Zee this is interesting stuff. Please continue to share your experience. As long as you aren't distributing any protected IP it's fine to share information here. Ultimately we are in an uncertain space in many domains of AI and it's better for us to increase our understanding and...

    D&D (2024) You're not planning on getting 2024 D&D? Why is that?

    Count me as someone in the "meh" category. It's not really a significant change enough to make the purchase worth it to me. However I'm certainly not the target market. I'm trying to play anything but D&D these days. Nothing against it but there's so many other good RPGs to explore. And it's...

    MCDM's New Tactical TTRPG Hits $1M Crowdfunding On First Day!

    I think maybe people are a bit too hung up on the always hit aspect. If there's sufficient variability in the damage roll there's still be a big difference in feel, for example rolling double sixes vs snake eyes.

    Weird character advancement idea

    I had a draft of a game where instead of a proficiency bonus you increase the number of d20s you roll (from 0 at disadvantage to 5 at 5d20) and you take the best result. It still provides progression as it skews the numbers much more towards the higher end and improves consistency, but keps the...

    Evil Genius Games Sues Netflix Over 'Rebel Moon' Roleplaying Game

    Great analysis. I'd also like to see a copy of the contract. Note there is also "contract by performance" (if i remember the name) where if they can prove the work was request and done it creates an inplied contract regardless of anything written down. Arguing ownership of the work carried out...
