SO how did this whole thing shake out after all? Did peeps get their refund?

Cesar ROMERO

Anton Chigurh and Tony Soprano are wildly disparate examples...

Ol' Freddy N...

It seems there is no argument there. He's arguing a contrafactual with no basis in reality. He's making up a non-existing AI that he thinks that by some process of iterative prompt building, he'll be able to arrive at something that he defines as creative. He's ignoring the fact that, by the act...

I'm trying to understand the argument on the table. Maxperson has a totally contrafactual process that, in his opinion may, in some future date, yield a process that is not just a series of complicated prompts. When pressed he doesn't give any concrete answers and says that he doesn't actually...

When is the last time Apple came out with a truly innovative Iphone? Just iterate on aesthetics and leave creativity to others.

What I don't understand is what is the business case for WOTC to come out with an innovative, real 6e? What they are looking to build is a subscriber base for D&DB. An iteration like 5.5 makes this possible. You don't have to use it if you don't want to but you can stay subscribed. And, as they...

Did I ever tell you about the time Caesar was captured by pirates?

Hey There. Is there still an opportunity to jump in? I've never played by post but right now my opportunity to play ttrpgs any other way seems to be 0. I have PB but haven't played...

Actually I'm on the same page. I don't want to have to make a decision on which one to pick up today when it won't be ready for quite a while and I don't know which one I want. I usually back everything from KP but I'm holding off on this one.

Why would you not wait to start promoting it when people can start buying it? If you promote it earlier, you get even more wild speculation than what you see going on here. I have a suspicion that this is part of a plan to avoid the downside of online TTRPG toxicity while building momentum for...

oooh. I have a bunch. Let's focus on 3 of the most egregious: Bergin's Book of Beasts - Penny Dragon Games. went MIA since 4/2024. 2c Gaming - Grimoire of the Grave - MIA since 10/2023. Quartermaster Games - The Gloaming Wild - MIA since 5/2023. I've backed 135 Kickstarters since 2020, mostly...

I'm relatively recently returned to D&D after playing as a kid but this time with discretionary income. I am also big into collecting things. I flatter myself to think that I am someone that a publisher would value. I toyed with the idea of collecting OAR. I even got started on that path with...

My point being that this is his excuse for getting in bed with JG. And somehow, he thinks this makes it ok. But it's circular. "Why are you printing this thing?" "So I can refund the original funders." "Why are you refunding the original funders?" "So I can print this thing." Which tells...
