Rings Of Power. No point in chucking good money after bad.

Conclusion: you are no.2 pretending to be no.1 to fashion a gotcha. Goodbye forever.

Ez Is you one of them there newfangled indy narratavistical types decrying the amount of DM control in D&Dish games even in those selflabelling as “sandbox”? Or is you some grumpy trad illusiionist sore at the sandboxers being mean about your shiny railroad ?

There is “no difference” between a buffet, a menu, and a set menu. All rely on a chef deciding what to cook. (note, some games are more like a potluck. Or a bbq where evryone brings food, but one person is the designated griller)

metric, im not a barbarian

Im gonna run module N5 next, but change the village name to “Creedence”.

If theres no support material how the **** was it playtested?

Id buy the IP rights to Shadowdark and Rolemaster and release them as “Classic D&D 2025” and “AD&D 7E d100”

Im saying that a trad game without support is vanity naughty word and/or a ripoff.

And GMs can just make their own rules as well.

A trad rpg without material is a waste of paper

Well heres the thing. Surely the reason to bother producing a new D&D-ish* rpg is that youve got this pile of setting and adventure stuff that doesnt quite work with existing systems and needs the new rules system to really shine. Otherwise its just tree murdering. *of course there are...

but origin is not that simple, if material gets further processed or combined then the origin can be changed.
