    Critical Role to Run Grimdark Daggerheart Miniseries

    Was that a custom ancestry that they created for that particular stream?

    The Last of Us (HBO Max)

    It also won't help if they take another two years to come out with the next season.

    The Last of Us (HBO Max)

    It's been a couple of years since I played the game, but IIRC, you experience the same dissonance in having to switch to Abby's perspective in the game, and I appreciate that the show is forcing the viewer to have to do the same thing. It's why if there's some attrition in viewership, I totally...

    The Last of Us (HBO Max)

    Yeah, I think it's a different situation than the first season of Game of Thrones and Sean Bean. That show had a pretty large cast with lots of characters to follow. Last of Us has three main characters - one's dead, killed by another who viewers haven't really had a chance to connect with yet...

    The Last of Us (HBO Max)

    I'm not terribly surprised either, but I also think part of that is a lot of people are bouncing back from the fact that they killed off a main character. Just like the game, the show is taking the same narrative risks.

    Critical Role to Run Grimdark Daggerheart Miniseries

    Oh, they definitely can be but I’ve yet to see anyone bring that movie’s sensibilities to their anthropomorphic character. The last Daggerheart stream where everyone played some form of cute animal certainly wasn’t. It very much felt like the game was geared towards those kinds of fantasy...

    Critical Role to Run Grimdark Daggerheart Miniseries

    I’m gonna tune into the new show to see how it goes. Hopefully this one has less frogs, rabbits and turtle characters.

    The Last of Us (HBO Max)

    I think part of the problem is that it's easy for someone to miss the Day 1, Day 2, Day 3 titles in Seattle, and realize that the timing is going to be important.

    D&D General The First Demise of TSR: Gygax's Folly

    His story strikes me as a perfect example of “right place, right time”. There’s a tendency to mythologize people who achieve success but there’s plenty of luck that goes into the mix, as well as an ability to recognize an opportunity. It doesn’t mean those people will always be successful -...

    The Last of Us (HBO Max)

    They’re really using lots of shots from the game. That whole approach to the aquarium brought back memories.

    I am surprised I am still excited for Daggerheart

    I think that makes sense since D&D is the 800 pound gorilla in the space - it's what people want to talk about. However, it's very possible that Daggerheart displaces other games rather than D&D. I suspect that would actually be the case, but there's likely not great metrics to say that for certain.

    D&D 5E Convince me that the Ranger is a necessary Class.

    Nevermind - didn’t realize this was threadcromancy.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    My jealousy knows no bounds. I’ve just started dabbling in some hats but I don’t always feel they fit me right or I look good with them. I’m trying to just push through that because damn, I just love the way they look. They make the outfit sometimes.

    Did Marcus Aurelius really say "worked up"? :LOL:

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I mean, it's easy to pick on one of the worst examples but does that really carry over to something like Dragonsbane. Do people really dismiss other games and put them in the "Will Not Play" bucket, or do we put them in a "Maybe someday" bucket with the full knowledge that someday may never come?

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Do you find yourself doing that for every game you haven’t tried, or was FATAL the exception?

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Higher is better unless you go to high in Blackjack and then you bust. Lowball is a game in Poker where you try to have the lowest hand. It's all kind of irrelevant. You either understand the math behind rolling high or not, or you don't.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Fletch was begging for a series versus a movie. Hamm was perfect for that role.
