    Why the hate for anime? (Y da hat 4 anime?)

    I take anime title-by-title, rejecting some and accepting some, as a rule. When I toss something aside, it's usually due to one or more of the following traits: sophomoric in presentation, sophomoric in content, out of my demographic, out of my interest, or an utterly incompetant execution...

    Is D&D too complicated?

    Ryan's spot-on, as usual, about D&D. I don't see what the problem is about D&D, either 3.0 or 3.5. It's the simplest and most intuitive ruleset for the game in its history. Once you understand the foundation of the rules and master those general concepts, it's very easy to apply that mastery...

    Is D&D too complicated?

    You misunderstand the point of the Roper encounter in The Forge of Fury: There are encounters other than those balanced for the intended PC groups, and when it's a mismatch that disfavors the PCs then the PCs ought to run. Not all encounters are there for the PCs to beat.

    Reinventing Roleplaying Games

    Your way would drastically shrink the size of the hobby community because the people that would want to get into your brand of hobby already have far more viable and established outlets. The writers have a score of different publishing channels while the actors have the theater and cinema- and...

    Why RPGs are Failing

    Heard this line before. Still isn't true.

    Why RPGs are Failing

    There's a reason for that: the conservative approach is what guarantees that a gamer shall actually get to play the game, game it for a long time and actually get to make full use of what the game offers. It's been that way from the get-go, and 30 years of proven results is hard to ignore. All...

    Dungeon #112 has arrived

    I just got #111 a week or so ago! Once again, my FLGS has the new issue before I--a subscriber--get it. It is so much to ask that subscribers get their copies first?

    An Open Letter to Dragon and Dungeon Readers

    Dragon = The PHB magazine Dungeon = The DMG magazine This is how it ought to be, and I'm glad to see that it shall be that way. Good going.

    lost INT and affect on skill points

    No, their skill points are not changed- in either direction. Changes in a character's Intelligence score never create retroactive changes in a character's skill points.

    FYI: AEG Postpones Swashbuckling Adventures/7th Sea RPG Line

    First Shadowforce Archer, and now Swashbuckling Adventures. It seems as if AEG's doing some house-cleaning, getting rid of also-rans so they can make room for more new stuff.

    Subscribers receiving Dungeon 111?

    The FLGSs around here have their copies already. Shouldn't I get the damned thing before those that don't subscribe?

    Subscribers receiving Dungeon 111?

    Ditto. No #111 here either.

    Why we love D&D but hate d20

    Why not? There are only three classes: Grog, Companion & Magus. Levels are irrelevant; using BESM d20 as a development model is a good idea here. Deadlands was a deliberately bad effort done as a propaganda move because Shane hates d20 and wanted to "prove" it by "showing" that Deadlands...
