    Spoilers Star Wars: Andor season 2

    Sublime stuff! I really loved the way the Force was represented in this arc. Also: they made droids feel terrifying. The show has already topped the high water mark set by season 1 and we still have 3 episodes left. This will be me waiting for next week:

    You'll never win any Star Wars trivia comps with that attitude. ;)

    Spoilers Star Wars: Andor season 2

    I'm excited for this weeks arc as it's written by Dan Gilroy who wrote and directed the film Nightcrawler which is one of my favourite movies of the past couple of decades.

    What Are Your Non-Gaming Hobbies/Interests?

    Movies and live music, but mostly art. I’ve been exhibiting my drawings for just over 20 years now. Just had my 40th solo exhibition in January this year.

    D&D General How Was Your Last Session?

    Played another session of Wild Beyond the Witchlight, in which we’ve converted our characters over to the new rules. It was a shorter session as we started late. In the end we finished on a cliffhanger where we’re about to fight the first Hag. I’m a sucker for a good pre-boss fight cliffhanger...

    D&D 5E (2024) What upcoming WotC D&D product are you excited about?

    As to the topic at hand, I’m pretty excited for most of the opening slate of releases. It’s interesting to see them using a similar formula to the 2014 product kick-off, but with a few tweaks. Dragon adventures: instead of a dragon themed adventure path/campaign it’s a dragon themed adventure...

    D&D 5E (2024) What upcoming WotC D&D product are you excited about?

    Nope, that’s not what’s happening. Also, you don’t seem to know what ‘dog whistle’ means. Interesting.

    D&D 5E (2014) Hypothetical: WotC goes under and Hasbro vaults D&D. Now What?

    It would bring me no joy to be right, but I just can't imagine it going any other way.

    D&D 5E (2014) Hypothetical: WotC goes under and Hasbro vaults D&D. Now What?

    I was just in the middle of writing something similar... I think that the popularity of TTRPGs would slowly decline without the brand name to bring in new people to the hobby. Also, without WotC around for people to hate, the scene would turn on each other as the fans of each game would fight...

    Spoilers Star Wars: Andor season 2

    I liked the spy-thriller vibes of this week's arc. It may have been the slowest burn so far, but I thought the pay-off was worth it. Plenty of great writing on offer as usual.

    D&D General How Was Your Last Session?

    I played with a friend overseas on Sunday, it was the first group I've played in where everyone else is live and I'm the only one zooming in. The DM is a childhood friend of mine, and is running a game using BECMI (or maybe a modern system based on it, I'm not 100% sure) It was heaps of fun...

    What videogames are you playing in 2025?

    The real question is whether to play the game in Kurosawa mode or not.

    Spoilers Star Wars: Andor season 2

    Superb start. Is it true we're getting another 3 episodes again next week? Edit: Really enjoyed the Dedra/Cyrill/Cyrill's mum scenes.

    Star Wars: Starfighter

    Yeah, I did think of him overall, it was more the modern films where I'd struggle, I'd have to compare rotten tomatoes. Prequels felt like a career curse to some degree.
