looks at his Shadowrun collection I absolutely love my 1e/2e/3e SR FASA physical book collection, the Fanpro ones a little less so, and I own most of the 4e/5e/6e in pdf (via Bundles). The issue with SR is all the different systems that are stuck together, yes it's crunchy, that's not the...

All I wanted for Shadowrun was a coherent rules set. But it's too much to ask that from FASA. All I wanted for Shadowrun was a coherent rules set. But it's too much to ask that from FanPro. ;)

That is an issue, it's an issue with any program with many features and options. But what people tend to forget is that not every DM is a techwizard, but it's perfectly possible for someone else in your group to manage it and for you to just run it. But manage expectations, if you want a lot out...

To be honest, there isn't really a VTT I dislike as a whole, there can be parts of it I dislike and things that don't fit with me, but disliking a whole solution? Not really. But that's not how I choose a tool, I choose a tool, like a VTT on what I find most important and what fits within that...

I just see chickens... ;)

I know reading can be hard... But oh well... I think the rules are 'interesting', but I don't see me playing it or my group wanting to play it. What people do with Barbies and shoes, before ending up in the ER is 'interesting', but also not for me... ;) I want to compare it to D&D 4e, it was...

That is the problem with the hype, we don't know the quality of DH (besides the beta), as it's not out yet. As I said, the quality of 'B', the board games from DP, is rated mediocre to average at best. But people are acting like DH is the best thing since sliced bread. I don't like CR, I don't...

Review numbers give some indication, looking at Amazon and DTRPG are probably two of the biggest indicators. No hostility. No, just sharing that alarms are going off. When famous people known for A, sell B which is received as mediocre at best, and now try to sell you C. And people are hyping...

When I look at Darrington Press, I see average to 'Meh!' board games from them on BGG. When I look at their 5e product "Tal’Dorei Campaign Setting Reborn", with 4 reviews on DTRPG and 80 globally with Amazon, sure they score high, but not a large enough pool of reviews to get anything resembling...

<insert meme> EMOTIONAL DAMAGE! </insert meme> ;) These days we play remote on a Sunday morning/afternoon. If they cancel early, I can sleep in! I still want to look for a fun boardgame we can play online that's good for three players for those days when we just want to chat/hangout online and...

I don't mean a single person, I mean an entity, could be one, could be 20 working together. So they are all looking the same way. The problem is that all the different groups making these modules don't work together as such. I know that Foundry VTT isn't made by a single person, they have a...

Using Theater of the Minds and art/images is a bit contrary imho. But I get you want to get away from the tactical combat element. I get that, while we use tactical combat in our D&D 5e game, I do want to use more images as the thing we're looking at instead of constantly a combat map. As...

That's because people have been trained to update-update-update. When a campaign in Foundry is running, you don't update if you do not need to. Is there a bug you really need fixed? Sure, update, but otherwise leave it alone! FG is a single developer. One thing to update, no conflicts. Foundry...

You mean over 20 years ago... Twilight Imperium 3rd edition was already $80 in 2005, we left the $60 behind us a long, long time ago! And sure TI3 was a big chunky box, but I have more like those big boxes from that era, all were priced at $80. And FFG was not unique in that pricing scheme for...

Massive Darkness is a board game, if you're not deep into board games, especially not KS board games, then it's not surprising people have never heard of it. Chances are that you only heard about it now because they're adding D&D 5e books to the KS...

I'm very interested in this, but I'm not backing this,but I might pick up the pdfs when they are released.

But does it need any further support? Shadowrun: Anarchy => core rulebook Shadowrun: Chicago Chaos (Anarchy) => adventure campaign Shadowrun: Anarchy 2050 => 2050 setting and adventure/campaign conversion of old (1e) adventures It's rules light enough that you can pickup any SR...

Have been a fan of SR since 1e and have most of the 1e/2e/3e books on my bookshelves. The more recent editions I have in pdfs via Humble Bundles and Bundles of Holding. I don't like many of the newer 'fluf' directions they went with, where the internet now is more like another form of magic...

Foundry VTT: Two years ago I went looking for a VTT as we were playing very irregularly (one of our people was not in the country and we would only play when they visited). One of my requirements was that it needed to be web based, no clients/plugins required. As we played very irregularly, I...

I think you're reading too much into that. People sometimes just stop posting due to all kinds of reasons, from avoiding a toxic environment to just not having the mental bandwidth to do it anymore. And maybe after a while realize that they can do without xyz (in this case Twitter) in their...
