You’re a publisher so of course you know what’s what. No doubt. I’m saying there are a lot of Monday morning coaches that are trying to out expert one another. That’s a sports metaphor so it’s probably wrong.

I think it’s a fairly universal truth.

I think the general expertise people think they have with OGLs and SRDs isn’t quit what they think it is.

What is and isn’t difficult is relative. With different personalities and learning styles…saying something isn’t hard is dismissive. Not only that, some people just don’t like the same things other people like. It should say something that of all the “sacred cows” D&D held onto…Thac0 wasn’t...

There are an awful lot of people talking. It can’t all matter. 😳

We all have to make our own choices when it comes to mockery and ridicule. 😉

There is no conclusion to come to. That’s why the temperature goes up. There’s nothing to be right about. 😂

I’m waiting to see who gets the prize for being right about any of this stuff. 🥳

I'm an older gamer and i couldn't care less what WotC thinks of me. I'm middle aged and I approved this message.

I played during the Thac0 years and I still don't know what it is. 😳

My nostalgia comes from the shared narrative. The story we create. The rule set is at best a crutch to help facilitate that narrative. I’m not much of a nostalgia person anyway. Our best times should be ahead of us.

You're right. no one on the internet has over reacted to anything before. What was i thinking for having my own opinion on the matter?

All of the top D&D talent should leave and start their own company. Easy for me to say though right? ;)

I’m sure when they knocked on the door and identified themselves; the family looked up the company history. Not everyone is the know it all people on the internet pretend to be. I’m not sure what the outcome of this conversation is supposed to be so…you win I guess.

I don’t want to minimize the fear and confusion they may have felt at the time. Was the situation FUBAR…of course. But just saying “Pinkertons” doesn’t mean what people think it means.

Isn't that what playtesting is?

Hang on….someone on the internet agreed with me?!! I have to call my mom!!!! 😉 While I’m sure D&D will always be the Kleenex of RPGs….they kind of opened the door to obsolescence when they (oh man, not this again) started giving away the milk for free. And now I’m counting the number of...

I’ve got 1e books from the 80’s that have seen years of abuse and are still in excellent condition. 🤷🏻‍♂️
