    WotC WotC's Chris Perkins On D&D's Inclusivity Processes Going Forward

    Sorry, I don't get your question, I think a typo slipped in there? Back home for me is Wales now, by the way (was Hong Kong when I used to visit NZ).

    WotC WotC's Chris Perkins On D&D's Inclusivity Processes Going Forward

    Well, this already happens to some extent in China, for example with different endings to films to reiterate that crime never pays, the bad guys see the error of their ways, etc. That's easy to do because it's usually in the form of text after the movie finishes. Most of the time the main market...

    WotC WotC's Chris Perkins On D&D's Inclusivity Processes Going Forward

    Māori culture is indeed pretty cool from what little I was exposed to in NZ, though I believe there are quite a lot of differences even there and certainly across all the island communities so covering all those details in a sourcebook would be monumental (i.e. how could you decide what to leave...

    WotC WotC's Chris Perkins On D&D's Inclusivity Processes Going Forward

    From the viewpoint of the growing indigenous TTRPG industries outside the US, disinterest in sanitised, idealised Americanised products is a good thing. Unless they also want to sell to the US market, in which case they'll have to abandon local preferences for the bigger spenders overseas...

    Which Social Media Platforms Do You Use?

    I've just joined Mastodon (dice.camp server) which at the moment reminds me of Google+ somewhat. I don't plan to leave Twitter as yet because there are still many people I follow on there, and vice-versa. Is Whatsapp social media or just a messaging service? And do people outside the PRC really...

    The Design Mechanism Announces Autumn Releases

    The Design Mechanism's Autumn releases for 2022 are looking rather interesting - I'm particularly looking forward to Mythic Gwynedd.

    Henry Cavill is back! Not about the Witcher.

    These thread titles need to be more specific - I've already clicked on this thread twice expecting to see an announcement that he's been signed for season 4 of The Witcher ... :p

    Dragonbane: An Interview with Tomas Härenstam

    Now waiting for more details of their third-party publishing license. It sounds good from the little snippet in the KS campaign (quoted for convenience below), of course, but still interested in the small print.

    Arcane netflix series

    There's been some discussion of this on anime forums (as they usually talk about all kinds of animation, not just japanese, as well as a lot of related live action stuff), and in a few other places, just not as much as I would expect. Anyway, that's not really important. What is important is...

    What to run when you are done with D&D?

    Having had a recent experience with the pre-publication quickstart, I think the answer for a generic, accessible fantasy RPG after D&D might be the upcoming new edition of Dragonbane (or Drakar och Demoner, as I wish they would also call the English edition) by Fria Ligan. It seems to have just...

    Arcane netflix series

    I'm even later to the party. It's rare for me to really get into a series these days, but for some reason (or, I suspect, a whole host of reasons), Arcane has hit the spot. I find myself re-watching it even though I just finished it a couple of days ago, which hasn't happened since ... Aliens...

    OSR What's Going on with Goblinoid Games (Labyrinth Lord)?

    In case anyone hasn't heard yet, it looks like Dan and Goblinoid Games are making a comeback with a second edition of Labyrinth Lord. Quite a pleasant surprise given the likelihood that GG was going to be either sold or shut down completely. He posted the announcement on Facebook:

    OSR If you were going to commit to one clone of older edition D&D going forward, what would it be?

    The one outlier is Holmes Basic D&D, which for some reason hasn't been added to the D&D Classics catalogue in PDF or PoD. That's the main reason I first wrote a retroclone for it (well, it started out as an errata document, and then it snowballed). I and fellow admirers of Dr J. Eric Holmes's...

    Blueholme: A Simulacrum

    Time for another update on the Blueholme Brochure. Creating this guide for the eponymous city of the Known World of BLUEHOLME™ is a complex, back-and-forth affair. I started with a broad concept for the city on an island in the Crystalmist River, followed by a few sketches of what it might look...
