Well I received nothing and I would like to know if Heineman received the money raised back in 2024 or that her family received it if not. Since the project creators stopped communicating well before then, I'm still going to stick with my previous statement.

The supposed fundraiser for Jennell Jaquays's family, Return to Perinthos, ended about two years ago and there's been no information about fulfillment or delivering the funds to her family since June of last year so I'm assuming that was a scam.

The only Kickstarters that I've regretted backing have been a couple where the people turned into really snotty and dismissive jerks to the backers after the campaign ended. Sure I've had some that didn't deliver what I was expecting and that was disappointing, but I just shrugged and moved on...

Never heard of Deathbringer, but I've also never heard of Professor DM so that tracks. Am I so out of touch? No! It's the survey respondents who are wrong!

I haven't seen any publisher with their entire line reduced to 75% off. I think it's various items like Chaosium's Pendragon Starter Set is reduced from $14.99 to to $3.75. Looks like they've reduced a lot of their starter sets by a similar amount.

I've run into this. I backed a comic book KS that included a "challenge coin". They ran into some sort of production issue with the coin that delayed the project's fulfillment for over 6 months. For a lousy piece of junk that is now in a drawer somewhere in my office.

The books from the City of Mist Humble Bundle can be downloaded as PDFs. You don't need an Internet connection to read them. I bought the bundle last night and saved them.

Yeah, in my opinion Dune as an RPG setting really suffers from Paul (and later Leto II) being such massive presences that it's easy for PCs to feel unimportant. Agents of Dune works around it by being set in an alternate timeline where the Emperor gives control of Arrakis to the PCs' House...

Out of that list of games, I would recommend starting with Dune especially if the sizable collection includes the Agents of Dune boxset. Dune is one of the simpler iterations of the 2d20 system and Agents of Dune is specifically meant to teach both players and the GM how the system works.

Yazeba’s Bed & Breakfast is the Deal of the Day on DriveThruRPG today if anyone wants to check it out for cheap.

Yeah, I was trying to be snarky about both that statement and the misrepresentation of "separate the art from the artist" to mean "buy whatever I want without considering the real world harm to others" BS. I think my sarcasm output failed.

But wait, I was told "sunlight is the best disinfectant" and we're supposed to platform these people and their hate?!

Duckin'-A right, it is!

Well there's a good example of who this new product is going to be for.

In fact, most data shows that adversity has the opposite effect.
