    Mass Layoffs At Polygon, Major Gaming News Outlet

    Well, I got laid off from my job as a game designer at the beginning of the year. Several friends got laid off at the beginning of the previous year. Many of us have no jobs in that industry. I realized what was happening when I looked at the reports of thousands, if not tens of thousands in the...

    Where’s The Beastmaster Roleplaying Game? Part 1

    I’m betting it was about ip rights being in flux, or a single manager of the ip saying, “RPG? Why would we want one of THOSE things?”

    Voidrunner Let’s unbox an actual Voidrunner’s Codex!

    Hmnn. How well does it work with tales of the valiant?

    Do Tariffs Apply To RPG Books? Maybe, Maybe Not!

    There is little to be done about treading into political territory with this, as that’s what’s triggering these tariffs. For that reason, I’m going to nod, offer a good day, and move away from this one. Too volatile.

    Project Sigil 90% Of D&D’s Project Sigil Team Laid Off

    <facepalm> Oy. The gaming industry is in freefall, now. We’ve had studios closing left and right, thousands upon thousands laid off so often it’s not even being noticed anymore, and people with 20+ years of experience are unable to find work outside a Walmart. This is not a trend anymore. Way...

    Score +2 For Million Dollar Crowdfunders!

    And the woman in question looks more like the actress from Orville who played the doctor. Clare Finn. Might just be me, though.

    Score +2 For Million Dollar Crowdfunders!

    I have to wonder about the stupendiums music having something to do with the push on this product… they did a mini musical based on the setting.

    WotC 5E Designer Mike Mearls Talks About The OGL Crisis

    None of the facts here are making them less hateable. Seriously. It’s like they go around, proclaiming their face punchable, and wonder why their nose is bloody. That was NOT an advocation of violence. It’s just a metaphor for the absurdity of the given behavior.

    WotC 5E Designer Mike Mearls Talks About The OGL Crisis

    So, they sent out a meeting offer for early next week, on a Friday, and expected rsvp? If I’m reading this right, they would be hated for that alone…

    WotC 5E Designer Mike Mearls Talks About The OGL Crisis

    I just switched to project black flag, or tales of the valiant. I have no regrets. The thing to remember is, Wizards did not commit this single offense. They had been showing their colors for a while before this, and this just made me nod and say, ”I believe you.” It’s sad. I was steeped in...

    WotC 5E Designer Mike Mearls Talks About The OGL Crisis

    Well, that leaves us with hearsay. Some companies these were sent to say they had signatures requested of them. But we don’t have proof of the veracity of that claim. As far as Mike having no reason to toe the line, we don’t know that either. There are contracts that prevent speaking out...

    WotC 5E Designer Mike Mearls Talks About The OGL Crisis

    Hmnnn. Sent out for feedback? I thought there were requests for signings. I have conflicting data of that event.

    Evil Genius Games Attempts To Remove Bad Press [Update--And Then Adds Legal Threats!]

    Wow. I had almost forgotten about this. Nice of him to remind me.

    Worlds of Design: How Powerful Are Your Gods?

    Fact is, gods are VERY core to any setting that uses them. I'm not talking about the standard D&D world pantheons. Those are all based off the core greek and roman gods. And yes, I know they are NOT directly out of Bulfinch's Mythology, but they're kissing cousins. The lady of pain is one like...

    D&D General Watch the Baldur's Gate 3 Cast Play 'What We Do In The Shadow-Cursed Lands'

    Or... just ignore all that, and have them meet up and run like the dysfunctional trainwreck they are? You're applying logic to comedic buggery.
