Yes, sadly. Not just geeks arguing over Star Wars or D&D vs. PbtA either. There's nastiness over dog training, knitting vs crochet, Ford vs Chevrolet, growing roses, and on and on!

I love playing and running a variety of games. I do have more games than I'll ever run but have enjoyed reading them. I have eclectic tastes and play everything from OSE to Brindlewood Bay to Ryuutama to Star Trek. I like Trad, Neo-Trad, Narrative and Story Now.

As people, it can be hard to change the way we have always done things. This could be part of the consistent PbtA misunderstandings? Brand new rpg players rarely struggle with games like PbtA or Fate or any other games that we more experienced players often pull our hair out over. We think...

The book was late, and they did go quiet for a while, but after complaints, they communicated fairly regularly. They were hoping to be more in sync with WotC 2024 plans, but once again, responded to backers who told them, please don't keep delaying book for that reason. You really should read...

Love this book too. I laughed out loud at choosing the GM as a warlock patron.

Easy to do!

My picks: Wonder Woman Matrix Pirates of the Caribbean Raiders of the Lost Ark I like Jurassic Park 2 well enough but 3 is awful Frozen My Girl

I am so sorry to hear this sad news. Jenelle was a pioneer in the RPG industry and will be sorely missed. Condolences to her loved ones.

I haven't bounced off a system in many years. There's some games I'm not interested in because of the topic. Dune and Alien sound like amazing games but not my jam. I can't seem to click with Savage Worlds and Mutants and Masterminds but that was quite a while back. Okay, this isn't true...

Our local independent bookstore has a shelf for rpgs. Someone working there is a fan. They carry 5e, but also Coyote and Crow, a good assortment of Free League games, Pathfinder, Call of Cthulhu, Vampire, Zweihander, Blades in the Dark, Warhammer, plus others I'm forgetting. It's amazing and I...

I have not read Riggs book. I don't agree with the points he makes in the article. I have no problem with people debating the merits of the essay and disagreeing with him. I'm just startled at the sarcasm directed at Riggs himself. I read the essay, thought about it, disagreed with most of it...

But I really don't get this. He's making a prediction, which can be tricky. I mean, if I had to agree 100% with all the authors on my bookshelf, it'd be a pretty small, if not non-existent collection. Industry experts often make poor predictions. No need to beat him up personally. "Slaying the...

Ben Riggs wrote an essay citing his feelings and predictions. We can agree or disagree with some or all of his points. I do not believe that he's just shouting gloom in order to increase his profile or sell more copies of his book. I don't believe he is being click baity. It is probably genuine...

I'm in BC. Our copy just cleared customs and is beginning its journey across Canada from Ontario. Going to arrive just in time for my return to work.🙄 Very excited to get it.

Very dramatic session! Thanks for the update. I've no experience with Burning Wheel so these session updates are interesting.

Yep, that's under my tree too. 😁

We backed this on Kickstarter and just got our physical copy. It's a gorgeous book. The illustrations by paleontologist/paleoartist, Dr. Mark Witton are amazing. My husband and I are delighted to see his name on a game book since we are both huge dinosaur fans.

As my husband pointed out, it's pretty much yet another redo of Seven Samurai/Magnificent Seven. Only in space wirh Star Wars backdrop. And not well done. None of the characters are given room to grow on us, except Kora. And the sad thing is the characters do seem like they could be interesting...

Have a nice selection of different coloured pens, so players can choose a colour or colours that matches their character (for the permanent bits of course). Keep the pencils sharp and have decent quality erasers on hand. I enjoy the process of filling in character sheets. I never use digital...

That's just cruel! 😂
