    Why is the WoW influence a bad thing?

    So in all things released about 4e, what about it are people excited about that you can't find in a good MMO like WoW?

    Why is the WoW influence a bad thing?

    In all seriousness. If the system is going to be wow on paper, why not just go play wow. There's no way that (the way wotc offers it up anyway) tabletoping is any cheaper than 15 bucks a month now, anyway. Also with wow you get a computer to run your game for you, as well as professionals...

    Magic : How streamlined do we want it?

    Streamline spells=simpler spells=boring I guess it's ok if all you really care for is beating up that bad guy, seeing how strong you can get, and getting all the phat loots(might as well just play an MMO at that point), but interesting and sometimes complex (but only complex and long because...

    Why is the WoW influence a bad thing?

    Because there's no real Rollplaying in wow? Also it takes a computer to GM WoW, I wonder if 4E comes with a cyborg implant. ;)

    D&D 4E New ways 4e encourages rollplaying

    Fair enough, I just haven't been keeping up with it, and I was wondering along with all the hype and leaks of technology and the such if there was a leak of some ways they're using the rules allowing room to really get back into rollplaying. Perhaps a special xp table where you earn just as...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Thanks Col for both of your answers and how good they were. :D I do realise I need to just bite the bullet and use other material one way I do do this is through reading novels. The hardest part I find about using other's adventures is the memorization. In my own world where I control all but...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Hmm good advice. :) I'm not too sure I have too much of a problem with predictability (I'd have to ask my players). I seem to stump them from time to time and try very hard to come up with twists to my adverntures. But I do believe in your advice that at times my ideas can become stale. I...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Gary, Sorry for posting another question so quickly. Please don't take this as an attack, and I agree on your ideas that gaming isn't an "art" it's a game. But I can't help but notice that you also write novels in the same like settings as you would play your games in and to most writing...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Hey Gary, As someone that constantly feels that's more rewarding to flesh things out and figure things out myself, I rarley use or seek out tools to help my gaming, such as magazines, modules, premade maps and the such. I pretty much game only using the corebooks, a pencil, paper...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Sure Gary, Just to let you know I fell in love with AD&D spellcasting and I prefer that over any other system I've seen. The plan I'm planning on using is as close to AD&D as I could get without any major conversions (unless Im wrong, which wouldn't be the first time). I plan on having...

    C&C Casting Time Hi Gary (or anyone else), I just recently purchased what I needed to play the C&C RPG game and let me tell you I'm somewhat excited to dive into it for it seems far better than that other table top game that will go unmentioned, that I currently play. I just have one...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Cool thanks for the reply. One of my favorite, although it's kinda far fetched, is the ole every player unkown to each other ( I guess this could only work for a first adventure for a campaign) have the same wierdo cryptic dream and all wake up together on a forrest floor or some such setting...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Hey Gary, I was wondering do you have a favorite "adventure catalyst", you know something to get the adventure started? I'm not necessarily looking for ideas so don't give me you best, just your favorite if you have one? And I apologize if you get this asked of you a billion times a year ahead...
