    Video Games: Nostalgia Vs Extinct Genres

    The Incredible Machine is an old friend I revisit from time from time. Some months ago I found an emulator to Lemmings. Lots of laughs again. Also, I found an emulated version of the Day of the Tentacle that I loved. One of the best adventurer games of all times. Not playing right now, but I...

    D&D General How would you redo 4e?

    Perhaps conflating it with boons and banes from the Shadow of Demon Lord?

    D&D General If A Nobles parents are A Duke and A Baroness and his mother dies sooner can he inherit his mothers Barony before he inherits his fathers dukedom?

    In this case, it is also somewhat common that the merged titles can be separated again as a gift for other heirs. For example, the duke/baron knows that his old son will be duke, but he likes his second son and gives to him the baron title. This is not automatic, however. There was lots of...

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Mysteries of the Multiverse Reveal

    Wizards of the Coast should really use this quote to promote the book. No kidding. :)

    Pathfinder 2E Free Archetype Variant Rule - if you DON'T use it, why, and how did your players react?

    I know a group of friends that plays without it (I am not in that specific campaign). The reasoning is that they prefer more down to the earth characters and versatility should come with a price: using one of your class feats as an archetype one. For the same reason (down to the earth), that...

    Planescape 5e Planescape- What would you like to see in the upcoming setting?

    In my games, there was usual to ask to someone that seemed new to the Outer Planes: "Berk?" (The person makes a face that does not understand the question or the word) "Berk!" (conclusion of the players).

    D&D General Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan complaint

    I remember that when I was young there was a Geography exam that displayed a map and then asked questions like "the river is east of the town", etc. The catch is that north was not up. And no compass rose either. We used just the numbers for latitude and longitude impress at the lines to now to...

    Planescape 5e Planescape- What would you like to see in the upcoming setting?

    I would really love if they give useful directions for those that want to play before the Faction Wars. Full rules for all the 15 Sigyl ruling factions before the war. I know many people like the Faction Wars and it is all ok. But lots of us (including myself) consider it what broke the setting.

    D&D General How would you redo 4e?

    As I said, mileage can vary. Different people have different expectations of fun and it is all ok. The group where I game (not the group I DM) drama is exactly that: not realiable. Because that is drama. :)

    D&D General How would you redo 4e?

    You can tell these stories if you assume you just roll dice when in doubt for the outcome. I would rule that Gandalf simply knows lots of things (something in line to the always take 10 or even take 20 on rolls) and just roll when in doubt. Usually the rule of "take 10" is enough for experts do...

    D&D General How would you redo 4e?

    It is in where we disagree. For me and my group, it tells great tales. As always, your mileage can vary... And we are also against juice it with magic. In most campaigns I play or DM, there is no items giving numeric bonus to anything. Magic items should do interesting things, not be required...
