I did but I didn't like it so all pizza is bad.

I keep reading and hearing that we are in a golden age of TTRPGs where people can choose from multiple different genres and systems, including D&D and if that’s not to their taste, a number of D&D lookalikes that all have their own variations.

But no, we need to discuss the next version of D&D. Again.

Better yet, a subtle nuance that may or may not be happening in the D&D-o-sphere.

Well, at least here, just remember where you are.

I've gotten so used to the pizza being a metaphor I get genuinely confused when people start talking about actual pizzas on this site.

Oh yes, yes, sorry…PIZZA.

Trust me, I get it, I just had to tell myself "Self, you're about to post this sort of response in a D&D thread; all you're going to do is come across like a crank."

We have parallel conversations about real pizza and metaphorical pizza going on right now. Someone’s going to rip out a page of the DMG and put it on top of an actual pizza, if we’re not careful. “I think you’ll find the heavier stock used in Daggerheart has a vastly superior mouthfeel”.

This is the answer. Since that sleepless night and being frustrated and stressed with all that is adult life right now, I've made real good progress in framing out what I like, what I want, and some of the basics for my own little game.

I just wrapped up a drive this afternoon looking at a property and was able to put some thought into it on the way there/back.

Progress!

What about pitching pineapples at my players?
