    Which game books most inspire the "sense of wonder" in you?

    I am so glad this thread was created. I have been wondering why my reading since lockdown has been so lackluster. And I think my sense of wonder has been harder to achieve and more muted when I reach it. Something for me to ponder on (quite possibly with the help of an orb.) Lol

    D&D 5E (2014) Free5e on Kickstarter

    The key for me is foreign language translation. There are very few complete and "bring to the table and play" tabletop RPGs that can be translated into any language desired.

    Unbelievable Scale of AI’s Pirated-Books Problem

    It’s sad that my first response to this article is that no effort needs to be taken to trap AI bots in webs of useless AI generated webpages. That is already happening with all the AI generated slop pages, and without Cloudflares fancy tools.

    D&D General No One Reads Conan Now -- So What Are They Reading?

    I messed around with google trends and got Blades in the Dark, Dungeon World, and Shadow of the Demon Lord as popular. I probably did not include some of the better options. (Mork Borg, and Pirate Borg did not do well so I removed them.)
