Tekumel, aka Empire of the Petal Throne I scored a big box with basically everything made in it. It was really cheap. That wasn't the issue, I had a similar find with a Traveller box and no issues. Problem was the setting is so alien. Low metal clan based Islamic-Aztec derived societies...

Not cool. Regardless of someones unpleasant views, piracy is still against the law and downloading still requires the permission of the copyright holder.

I can't bring myself to care much about Drizzt, not for lack of quality just personal preference but this was darn good.

Haven't played Divinity but I hope your K.S. does have a spot of a Pirates of Darkwater vibe to it. Good luck.

Grease Soundtrack I think.

D&D is for playing D&D which is what most people want most of the time and often enough, its fine as a compromise. Its also played so much that people use it for all kinds of things. In my experience very lightly modified Epic 6 Pathfinder made for really good gritty heist style play. Now...

I went with Ban the Bard though my preferred choice would be "play 2nd edition."

I'd watch that over a vampire driven one.

It had some very good moments though.

Prep. I rarely bother with it. Second, I basically refuse to use any tech more sophisticated a spreadsheet and rarely that. This may be because online play defeats the entire point of TTRPG, that is getting together with people.

Deleted. I'm not going to support even with likes something that is problematic on copyright grounds.

Ranger (and thieves as well but that is another conversation) only needed to exist as a class because D&D has until 3rd edition had inconsistent and janky rules for all kind of common adventuring tasks. Tracking? No idea. Stealth? No idea we uh got surprise rules lifted from wargames. Its...

Last time I was in Neverwinter I had the Owl Bear roast at the Five Quills. Worst of both worlds, greasy, bearish, gamey, chicken'y with a slight sparkly carbonated note since it was a magical beast . Safe to eat? Sure. Not recommended at all. Great Tavern, good drinks, food and company...

We were playing Rolemaster Standard System but it seems the time is pretty close.

I own most of the HARP books in paper. Its a pretty solid system but like every game in that line and its cousins char gen can be slow. Last Rolemaster I played back in the late 90's we made 5th level (about 2 or 3 in AD&D 2e) starting characters. It took me half an hour to 45 minutes with a...

I played Rolemaster nearly every time I got a chance not because of the rules which were decent enough but because its player base was one of the best I'd ever interacted with.

Laughing At vs Laughing With is exactly the issue. IMO BBT Is laughing at nerds not with them and to me its rife with offensive stereotypes . A lot of people disagree but I'm not a purist so like what you like. Also there was a Tales from The Loop show? Huh. I'm more than a little out of...

Minstrel Show. Ouch. I can't bring myself to hate any media. That would require me to be involved with it. I am therefore indifferent to media I don't like. I guess that qualifies as cold. Harry Potter is a good example, saw the first movie and was just "eh." after that. I can't blame other...

Take away cantrips like that and you'll just end up like 3E where nearly every mage carries a crossbow and after a spell or two becomes basically an inferior crossbowman.

Kind of beat me to the punch. Note I do not have the main book as I'm not playing D&D at this time but I have the freebies for the setting and they were quite impressive. Ms. Switch Swine Witch definitely hits the twisted faerie tale vibe for me.
