    D&D General [rant]The conservatism of D&D fans is exhausting.

    He says it right there that it's not disparaging, so I guess you just aren't reading the posts you're quoting. Can you explain what part you find to be disparaging, if you don't have hangups over it being described with traditionally feminine terms?

    D&D General [rant]The conservatism of D&D fans is exhausting.

    lmao this thread has gotten completely unreadable when logged in now due to ignores (both toward me and by me). funny I'm astonished at this thread going for 1540 pages in complete circles. I really wonder what value the people so vehemently insisting that non heavily prepped hypersimulationism...

    Hacking Blades In The Dark With John Harper And Deep Cuts

    Having original Blades is helpful to understand some shared design ideas, but the only games I can think of where it's intended that you use Blades as a resource are Rebel Crown and some older ones like Sea of Dead Men (that may not be the name lol, it's about being whalers) and maybe Court of...

    Will AI replace Dungeon Masters?

    Top physical games tagged Solo RPG Here's a whole beautiful world of games you can play solo. I highly recommend Hardcase, Anamnesis, Cartograph, Ironsworn and Starforged are in there... It's really easy to find people to play with. Why would you ever be bothered to play a game nobody ever...

    D&D General [rant]The conservatism of D&D fans is exhausting.

    I love how you've turned "it's good when events continue moving forward when you fail" to "these damn MILLENIALS think you should NEVER FAIL!" i have no idea how so many people in this thread are just completely ignoring the actual topic to to -CENSORED- themselves about how Good And Pure And...

    Pathfinder to Release Lost Omens: Draconic Codex in December

    Red dragons are now cinder dragons (coming in Monster Core 2). The Horned Dragon is identical to the Green Dragon. These creatures did not suddenly cease to exist, they're just getting new designs and lore instead of copypasting DnD's ideas.

    Mass Layoffs At Polygon, Major Gaming News Outlet

    The gaming industry is absolutely cooked. 8 year dev cycles with violent, nightmarish crunch, where they lay off half the staff every year and then get bought by venture capital vultures are the norm. Journalism outlets got scammed by Facebook in to killing their already functional and stable...

    GM fiat - an illustration

    Imagine the beautiful world where the people in this thread adamantly insisting that it's impossible for an RPG to do [thing] would just go read a game where it's expected that you do that thing. I do not see any difference between solving a mystery that is pre-authored by the GM versus the...

    Guns & Gears Remastered Review

    Paper and shipping costs have exploded since 2020. 70 bucks is about what I would expect for a 260 page hardback book with a ton of full-page color illustrations. Like, these are luxury entertainment products. You want it cheap, get a PDF. Andd if you already own Guns & Gears, there is no...

    When did the "C" drop from CRPGs and when did "TT"RPG spring up?

    Polygon: Indie TTRPG Companies are "sitting in their own little corners of the internet and wringing their hands"

    How do you define character "weakness?"

    I can only envision a game where weakness (in terms of "power") is defined by not being capable of doing the things you should probably be doing very well due to what your character is. This is generally a design flaw. I'm more interested in like, emotional weaknesses and parameters other than...
