    D&D General Bob World Builder Recreates WOTC's "Do You Like Me?" Survey!

    I don't think the results will surprise anyone familiar with the past year at WotC. I think its worth noting that Bob recognizes and explains the survey population's bias in the very beginning of the video, and consistently reminds the viewer of this slanted framing throughout the video. He...

    D&D General Bob World Builder Recreates WOTC's "Do You Like Me?" Survey!

    Please elaborate so that others can make an informed opinion. Using a specific example of toxicity would be helpful.

    D&D General Bob World Builder Recreates WOTC's "Do You Like Me?" Survey!

    Is there a reason to take this video in bad faith? By reading this topic I've seen implications of toxicity that remains vague and undefined. I've seen moral grandstanding denoting Bob's use of clickbait titles is a significant immoral offense that earns him their ire regardless of its...

    ZWEIHÄNDER Reforged: Talking With Daniel D. Fox (World of Game Design)

    My intent isn't affected by your opinion, no. You'll have to either believe the truth or tell yourself a lie.

    ZWEIHÄNDER Reforged: Talking With Daniel D. Fox (World of Game Design)

    I'm making an inference based off criteria I described earlier. I specifically asserted that I'm only speaking for myself. Prior to that, I agreed with another poster's feelings. At what point do you feel I presented this as more than my thoughts, and you needed to remind me that its my opinion...

    ZWEIHÄNDER Reforged: Talking With Daniel D. Fox (World of Game Design)

    Speaking to that makes little sense in the context of our conversation, which was about Daniel Fox and their friends using carefully chosen words to muddle past actions and skirt acknowledging them as well as being dishonest about their original intent, rather than being open and honest as I...

    ZWEIHÄNDER Reforged: Talking With Daniel D. Fox (World of Game Design)

    Sure. I imagine quite a few people also share the sentiment that they wanted a change in attitude rather than phrasing. And don't worry, I need no assurance that its good to favor honesty and accountability over carefully worded deflection and dishonesty. You'll have to pardon me, however, for...

    ZWEIHÄNDER Reforged: Talking With Daniel D. Fox (World of Game Design)

    1. I am not "people". My mind has not changed. Speaking for myself? I wanted him to speak with honesty, not change his patterns. 2. The "shade" is accounting for things he definitively did. I think someone who feels bad and acknowledges their mistakes would get more good will than someone...

    ZWEIHÄNDER Reforged: Talking With Daniel D. Fox (World of Game Design)

    Witnessing the topic, I'm inclined to agree that there's a lot of carefully worded posts in this topic from either Daniel Fox or those who've announced themselves as his friends, all with the goal of downplaying or muddying his past transgressions. This does not express accountability or a...

    ZWEIHÄNDER Reforged: Talking With Daniel D. Fox (World of Game Design)

    Acknowledging that WFRP was an inspiration for Zweihammer is fundamentally different from acknowledging that WFRP was foundationally the same game as Zweihammer.

    ZWEIHÄNDER Reforged: Talking With Daniel D. Fox (World of Game Design)

    I don't see a reason to support someone who's historically unkind. I do not believe there can be a separation of an artist and their work when the success of the work also extends the artist's presence and reach. If you do not agree with the way Daniel Fox aggressively and intrusively promoted...

    D&D General 50 Years of D&D On a Single Chart

    Thank you for making and sharing this cool graphic. Also I'll have you know that there are clear reasons 3.5e beats all of them, and with this 6 paragraph essay I will...

    D&D (2024) D&D 2024 Core Rulebooks: 'We'll Still Be Working On Them In May'

    My understanding is that kids are a specifically small part of the audience, and that physical books don't make much money. Its mostly young adults paying for D&DBeyond. Perhaps you've seen different statistics, but everything I can find all seems to deny what you said...

    D&D (2024) D&D 2024 Core Rulebooks: 'We'll Still Be Working On Them In May'

    I don't think unknowing parents and grandparents are the ones driving D&D book sales. Especially when the primary audience is not kids.

    D&D General No, Hasbro Is Not Selling D&D

    Youtube is pretty bad because its full of people who hate things for money, and they're all trying to become the voice or driver of the community. Like instead of people moving on from D&D or away from Hasbro, they've chosen stagnation. They want D&D 5e to be a hugely successful and unifying...
