    Shadowdark Unless I am wrong

    That actually sounds pretty cool. Does that mean, technically, that no one could really ever roll a really bad character?

    Shadowdark Gary con

    Yes, I did, but the parody was based upon an out of touch boomer (boomer being broadly applied here to simply mean an out of touch older person who has no idea what they are talking about, this boomer is probably more like a Gen X or even someone younger than I am) trying to mock others, when...

    Ryan Dancey & AEG Part Ways Following AI Comments

    I don't think AI is going to go away, but I think a more realistic approach of how it can and will be used effectively needs to be realized by many of the companies that are trying to push it on their employees or customers. I think that if there is a bubble, it needs to pop and the sooner it...

    AD&D 1E Redesigned and Rebalanced Thief for 1e AD&D

    The most effective way to make a thief more effective it to have the DM allow them to be played how they originally were intended to be played (but that got lost in the translation...err...the rulebooks later on). A thief will ALWAYS succeed with their abilities unless opposed. For example, a...

    Shadowdark Gary con

    Depends on the business, but no lie, I would probably hire her before I hire him. The biggest red flag I see with her is her unwillingness to come in earlier, but other than that she appears to have adaptability to learn new things and new tech. His tone and voice are grating, which indicates...

    I'm not sure that is true. We have people currently (I'm not part of it, but I know of them and they are not a small group) betting on AI being a lot less useful than what people on the top are trying to push. In fact, they are putting their money on it that this will occur in the next few...

    Legends of Avantris Announces Neon Odyssey, a 5E Space Opera Project

    The Video for the RPG On a side note, this should be interesting. Neon Odyssey was released (I think) 2.5 years ago as a VR game by Ayayu, obviously this RPG is not it).

    The Gates trailer

    I'm not a big fan of Van Der Beek for reasons which we really can't talk about on these forums. That said, maybe there will be some sort of massively major twist at the end of the movie that shows everything is the opposite of what it appears.

    Trailer Mortal Kombat II | Official Trailer II

    The First one (recent release) was kind of boring...tbh. I think I actually enjoyed MK:A more! At least it had decent music... So, going into this trailer I was like....okay...whatever...and then the end music started... and the joke about Johnny dying (massive sin of MK:A...once that...

    OSR Castles&Crusades Interview

    I enjoy C&C. I think it's an outstanding system overall and think the Siege system is easy to understand (and 5e blatantly uses it for their skill system with a slight twist). The only thing I houseruled were saves. For starters, all scores are saves (and 5e could benefit from this as well...

    I'm not sure about that one. It may not have affected home users as much, but the Open License on the Linux Kernal and the ensuing Linux OS has had a rather large impact overall. It's one reason why we have so many Android devices as well as the entire Apple Ecosystem descended from the...

    Currently, yes. He is wrong. AI can do many things, but it's not creative. Any creativity it has is based upon it being trained. However, many new Boardgame ideas are not something some can be trained upon in coming up with them. I am a massive boardgamer and there have been so many new...

    Your most pointless TV/movie/book nitpicks

    Depends on the Office. Various things I did when I worked in the office in very brief detail. 1. initially was there to look good. I waited for someone to show up so that I could talk to them and start their paperwork, then double checked the paperwork. Started work with clients and their...

    D&D General Hasbro CEO Says AI Integration Has Been "A Clear Success"

    They should add a phrase to AI... "I don't know." A few more that could be good. "I'm not sure, but this is a guess" "According to this, and I quote"
