    Unpopular opinions go here

    Hey unpopular opinion here. All these posts that are actually about RPGs are interfering with my ability to enjoy reading conversations about trip-hop and pizza.😁

    I feel the cuisine of the green and pleasant Motherland is being unfairly criticised. In fact we have many dishes that are only a bit bland!

    Fantastical RPG Settings of This Millennium

    Bastion from Electric Bastionland is probably my favourite. Early 20thC technology level doesn't come up much in fantasy games. (I'm not counting CoC style games that are actually set in that there real 20th century)

    Critical Role Announces Two New RPGs

    I was one of those expecting Daggerheart to be more of a D20 variant a la Tales of the Valiant so I'm quite surprised they are making more of a jump. However from reading @DevL 's post about the odds and the fact TNs would be roughly convertible, maybe it's not as far away as it first appears...

    Illusionism: Where Do You Stand?

    You can get away with anything these days if you wear a high-vis jacket and carry a clipboard.

    Illusionism: Where Do You Stand?

    I haven't read the article so I can't say if I agree with it overall or not but I would say I would broadly agree with the above summary. However the topic is so broad and covers so many situations I could probably think of a bunch of exceptions. My general guideline would be - could you be...

    Official Adventure Time RPG Uses New 'Yes And' System

    My most frequently used optional rule is "Tidy up your Lego, then we'll see." But I find it gets countered a lot by "but I'm still playing with them!"

    Renegade Studios Sends C&D To Stop Small Creator Using The Word 'Renegade'

    (I know @Alzrius already got there with the Renegade TV show link but all I could hear in my head when reading the above post was this) "He was an RPG designer, and good at his job. But he committed the ultimate sin and released an RPG with Renegade in the title that annoyed another RPG company...

    Renegade Studios Sends C&D To Stop Small Creator Using The Word 'Renegade'

    You must have made a mistake! Surely a company that is such a beacon of freedom of speech as Twitter wouldn't allow the Truth to be hidden. Is there no large corporate entity/ billionaire's vanity project I can rely on in this crazy world? 😯

    Renegade Studios Sends C&D To Stop Small Creator Using The Word 'Renegade'

    While it is true companies do have to protect trademarks it is abused as an excuse for so much overreach. Especially when it can be done fairly and appropriately. See the below for a company pursuing a valid trademark issue reasonably. Percy Pig ice cream renamed after 'polite' M&S request

    How do you create an adventure when it can be about "anything?"

    Only if it means fighting them on the top of moving vehicals in a vest.

    How to be a Better GM

    Yeah. Too much "I'm a hero, I'm going to save the world whilst resolving my sad family backstory" right from the off. Whatever happened to spending the first 4 sessions in an Inn cellar killing rats - learning a trade? Kids these days want it handed them on a plate. It wouldn't have happened in...

    How to be a Better GM

    I think this indirectly brings up a point that gets missed when there are discussions about railroading and adventure planning. If players have signed up for an adventure they usually want to complete the adventure and for want of a better word "win" at the end so they want to stick to the...

    Knave 2 from Ben of Questing Beast. Update: Backerkit store is open.

    You make a good point. It's the tables and generators keeping Worlds/Stars without Number constantly in the bestseller lists at DTRPG. (And Kevin Crawford in caviar, champagne and diamond encrusted D20s)

    Knave 2 from Ben of Questing Beast. Update: Backerkit store is open.

    I believe I saw somewhere usually the first 24 hours is 50% of the total so the race is still undecided. I think all the core Questing Beast fans who were expecting it have signed up. It depends if it catches on with a secondary wave who find out about it from forums and you tube reviews like...
