    Polygon: Indie TTRPG Companies are "sitting in their own little corners of the internet and wringing their hands"

    Quinns' reviews are always fantastic, been following him since SUSD's early days and when he moved over to reviewing TTRPGs I was over the moon. This Mothership review of his immediately made me pick up a copy, and that has happened a fair few more times than my wallet can be happy about.

    Other Modes of RPG Play?

    Are there any games that focus on utilizing the benefits of asynchronous play? I think it'd be incredibly useful to break down the pros/cons of Asynchronous and try and smooth out some of the rough edges while highlighting the positives. My own experience is simply using DnD or whatever and...

    D&D 1E Favorite Obscure Rules from TSR-era D&D

    Discovering a secret like this would be amazing from a player perspective. Imagine you're just leveling your character as normal and your DM suddenly tells you that you've unlocked this whole side of your character that hadn't expected. For some this would feel bad because they hadn't built...

    Did the nerds win?

    No one hates they thing they love more than fans.

    D&D General How Often Should a PC Die in D&D 5e?

    5e isn't super well made for a meatgrinder style of game, and it doesn't really encourage the DM in that direction. Older players seeking a more brutal game will have a lot better luck looking at other systems, and newer players (and DMs!) just won't have the same inkling to experience it...
