The idea that some players and designers stay rooted to a past is still a predominant one; and with some good reasons. A setting's name has no consequence to how one plays in that setting. Both of these topics, above, are well worn and less than desirable to pursue. There's much more in common...

This may be. But the underlying truth is that this is a struggle to see who controls the estate and, secondly, who shares in its profits and manages it.

Well, I am more interested in it as a new conceptual system never before organized and promoted in history and that has wider application than just in an RPG, which, coincidentally, has been shown to be true many times over. In late 1974, for instance we received a letter from two Unv, of...

As always you are very thoughtful. OK. TT Games preceding RPGS are not a good comparison. This is a new game form. We are adding to it and have the ability in real time to change it, sometimes drastically, depending. It is of itself an evolving, living design and play form and is unlike...

Part of the problem with this Us & Them attitude (between what is referred to as OSR and those "New School" adherents, 3.0 edition onward to present) has been in large part not just a philosophical reaction but a defensive one. As I read it, and as quoted from a 2015 interview I gave prior to...

First I will state that I do not accept being grouped in the OSR mindset. I will clarify this statement below. I have stated this as far back to its foundation when vociferous voices within the community were attempting to lump designers and adherents of certain historical RPG lineages (thus...

Great movie and a terrific script by William Goldman.

Bad break. Hope more good work finds it way to you. Here's to the future and putting Covid behind us. It's been surreal to say the least.

I have a lot of friends in the film industry, working with three right now, and all of them have been slowed down to one extent or the other. Still, with America poised to come back online it's going to be a weird shift after all this time. I believe part of the problem is perhaps related to...

The ratio of noise to substance has increased these past years. And it's only getting greater as the massive and ongoing call for content in all mediums increases.

Yeah. On Nathalie's computer only, though. That's OK. These things work themselves out. The KS looks to be doing well so far; and I made an announcement of it at our FB page!

Backed for all the softcovers!

So I clicked on your KS link again from page 1, and just so you know I'm not gaffing around here, this the page I got (snap shot).

Yes. A woman with a hoody KS, didn't read it. Odd isn't it? Also odd that a direct link doesn't work for yours but if I access the link off the G search it does!

OK. In desperation I went to google and searched KS ACE and clicked on the link which took me to this page (snapshot illo below). Is this the page that gets updated when you start? If so I'm not MOVING from it. Gawd! It states in French that (quickly) it's a temp page for commentary as the...

OK. No go. We even logged into TLS page there and tried to search for KS starting soon and the page would not allow changes. Disabled Flash and it still did nothing. Something's rotten somewhere. @Morrus What are they levels of support (general dollar amounts)? This really sucks!
