    Critical Role Announces Two New RPGs

    You could say that about literally every game company that exists that isn't Wizards. They're likely making it because they want to make it, they can make it, and they think they'll at least break even on it or hopefully make a profit on it. It doesn't need to unseat D&D as the most popular RPG...

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    It shows that his lawyer is way out of his depth. His lawyer is the one who should have known how to go about filing and where to file it. For LaNasa it mostly shows that he's not good at picking lawyers or that he kept going to lawyers until he found one who didn't tell him "you don't have a...

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    I would like to see a lawyer weigh in on how typical this is. It feels like something you'd want in a bankruptcy proceeding. I certainly would hope that in a bankruptcy proceeding you have someone with accounting expertise to unwind everything. But I agree that any deep dive into his financials...

    D&D General DMs Guild and DriveThruRPG ban AI written works, requires labels for AI generated art

    Maybe, but get a good enough lawyer and you can argue that you've made a copy though. I mean, you have taken it one pixel at a time but how is that that much different from how our TCP/IP technology breaks files down into packets and sends them over the internet? And it's not that much different...

    D&D General DMs Guild and DriveThruRPG ban AI written works, requires labels for AI generated art

    Somewhere in that process they made a copy of the image. They had to - there's no way to read an image file and not have a copy somewhere on the computer that you're reading it on. Even if it's just in the RAM and it never touches a disk. Our entire Web usage has skirted around the issue of...

    Where to find Morrus, EN World, & EN Publishing

    He did, actually. X Corp. is the holding company he used to buy Twitter last year. In April he merged Twitter into X so that the company named Twitter no longer existed: Twitter “no longer exists” as a company, merges into Musk’s X Corp Musk has been obsessed with the letter X since the 90s...

    Spider-Verse Expansion Coming For Marvel Roleplaying

    Yeah - I downloaded the errata last night and looked at it all. I hadn't been paying attention after the initial playtest document other than hearing that they changed quite a bit in the first update. The folks who said that there was a lot of changes were not kidding. They scrapped the entire...

    Yeah that was pointed out to me earlier - completely forgot about that one.

    Spider-Verse Expansion Coming For Marvel Roleplaying

    You're right! I completely forgot about it even though it's sitting on my shelf next to the other Marvel RPGs. Dan Gelber worked on that one. There was a core of a good idea in there, but I'm not sure something that experimental was a good fit for a licensed property. They seem to be taking the...

    Spider-Verse Expansion Coming For Marvel Roleplaying

    In addition to what @Umbran pointed out - the company making this game is actually Marvel comics. This is their first outing into the world of rpgs but they have a lot of experience marketing comics. And announcing things in this way is exactly on brand for Marvel - they'll probably re-announce...

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    I think if LaNasa were to basically hold his hands up and surrender it all over to them, the story shifts from "garbage person thinks he's found the one weird trick to soaking a company for a lot of money" to "big corporation beats up on little guy". From a PR perspective I'd think that Wizards...

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    As this saga has gone on for a long time it's useful to remember that what started it is that LaNasa sued Wizards of the Coast and not the other way around. Wizards brought their suit on him after he started all of this. So IMO if LaNasa's attorneys are at the point where they're mitigating the...

    Renegade Studios Sends C&D To Stop Small Creator Using The Word 'Renegade'

    Dude. Dude. If you're really from Renegade for the love of Rao let your comms team handle stuff like this. Do not post on your own on an internet forum to try to clarify your company's position. It's literally the worst possible thing you can do from a corporate perspective. And if you don't...

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    For some reason my mom was really into Fibber McGee and Molly when she was young. Probably because where they lived they could only get signal for a handful of radio stations and they didn't have a tv until she was older, so you just learned to like to whatever was on.

    That reference is older than I am. Actually that reference is almost too old for my parents to get (almost but not quite, which is why I got it).

    TSR NuTSR Declares Bankruptcy

    Honestly with the way that folks have talked about LaNasa's corporate veil shennanigans, I could see the Museum being pulled into all of this and considered an asset that needs to be sold to satisfy creditors.

    TSR NuTSR Declares Bankruptcy

    I was literally just going to ask this - how can they be having a sale when they're going into bankruptcy? I don't get it.

    TSR NuTSR Declares Bankruptcy

    I'm not convinced that this isn't some kind of scheme by LaNasa to restructure things to hide assets. Not that it would necessarily be a good scheme. Just I have a hard time believing that anything he does isn't some kind of scheme.

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie Hit or Flop?

    Since it's a Nick Cage movie, Renfield will make it's money back once it comes out on streaming and every single bad movie podcaster on the internet watches it for their podcast. Easily tripling it's box office take :)
