    So Much Art From the 2025 Monster Manual

    Wow... it's so horrible, my goodness. I'm amazed just how bad it's gotten... good grief. :D Too hilarious at this point, it's like a parody.

    Dragonlance New Dragonlance Novels from Weis and Hickman in 2026

    Almost everything wotc touches now a days turns to dust, so this might actually be Dragonlance Dragonlance and not "wotc dragonlance" which is somewhat heartening and causes some slight optimism.

    D&D (2024) Has the new PHB reveals made you want to stick to an older edition of D&D, or to move onto a 5e-adjacent RPG?

    100% without any doubt at all, 2024 D&D is not for me in any way, shape or form. I will stick with ShadowDark, DCC and 2014 5e when needed, also experimenting with C&C and some other "modern but have the feel and looks I find inspirational" rulesets. Getting off the wotc train as fast as I can.

    D&D Historian Benn Riggs On Gary Gygax & Sexism

    The accusations and innuendo were flying fast and furious... so yeah. But not feeling victimized, that was my point. I've stated numerous times my game scene rocks.

    D&D Historian Benn Riggs On Gary Gygax & Sexism

    And I think I made myself clear, no? Diversity of art content is not an auto fail. It's not anything... if the art is diverse by your specific definition above, and it's inspiring or in some way enjoyable, or creates a positive reaction, then it's good to the viewer. Being diverse by your...

    I love waffles! Belgian is legit, but there is a Swedish place by us that makes the most killer waffles I've ever had! :D

    D&D Historian Benn Riggs On Gary Gygax & Sexism

    Getting a definition here... one person's diverse is another's homogenous. Showing art that is not homogenous can be good, if the art is good to the person looking at it. That can be cool or lame. All depends on how well it is crafted like any other work of art, print, aural or otherwise...

    D&D Historian Benn Riggs On Gary Gygax & Sexism

    Seriously... the new art is often super lame and doesn't inspire me at all. It might be diverse or maybe it's not, but it's still often lame as heck. Are you telling me you can't have diverse art and making it cool too? Absurd... and what do you mean by diverse... does that mean everything, only...

    I'm speed posting here... lol so yeah. "girls" "boys" as opposed to adult men and woman, or whatever... I mean I was talking like 9-10 through the teen years. When we started playing the game.

    D&D Historian Benn Riggs On Gary Gygax & Sexism

    Because I didn't want anyone to think saying girls was negative or anything... I only meant it that at the time we were just kids... so it was just boys and girls... kids. We had girls play in our games since like day 1... I never didn't associate d&d with girls playing, even though they were...

    D&D Historian Benn Riggs On Gary Gygax & Sexism

    The only point is that I was being accused of "old views" and all kinds of weird stuff. gatekeeping... I can't even keep up... my very simple point is our games were always diverse and welcoming and that made them more fun and better.

    Response to the Maybe your new ways aren't working... and that's the problem... new doesn't always auto mean good. Again, you seem heck bent on the old v new thing. And that's the us v them thing... not my thing. I try and mix anything I enjoy. Again we were full onboard 2014 5e...

    D&D Historian Benn Riggs On Gary Gygax & Sexism

    haha... sexism is not an essential element of the D&D. Never was for me... heck we had "girls" in our game since day 1. My intro to d&d was in late 70s from my older girl cousin. I never say it as a boy only thing as a kid. Now was it like 85% boys... yeah... but I never didn't have "girls" in...

    And maybe the new ways aren't either... so yeah there you go. Old/New whatever... I don't need to split it up like that. Some new things are great, some aren't and vice versa... that's the hate thing. Us v them... I'd rather just be us.
