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

    Is this an either or scenario with sandboxes? When it’s my turn to DM I run my homebrew world. I know ahead of time how different areas are set up—how likely the militia may come to help or hinder etc. I have factions and maps etc But I do not know everything that’s going to happen...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    First of all…had no idea. How interesting. Secondly, aren’t things like cy min already not a big Mexican thing? Or am I imagining such an article?!

    D&D General The First Demise of TSR: Gygax's Folly

    A weird thing buck rogers… I bought buck rogers battle gor The 25th century in the cheap at KMart… It basically got my group into plastic dudes on a map and was the gateway to axis and allies and shogun. My friend just had the buck rogers map blown up and is playing anew… I associated with...

    Well if they don’t do that people are not going to see their money back, right? Thanks for the breakdown

    Goodman Games Revives Relationship With Anti-Semitic Publisher For New City State Kickstarter [UPDATED]

    So trying to follow along… Is the nazi dude getting paid if I buy this or not? I’ve got most of the OAR series so curious.

    Goodman Games Revives Relationship With Anti-Semitic Publisher For New City State Kickstarter [UPDATED]

    I ageee but also still think the gaming community is harder on their producers. Maybe a better example is music. I have no doubt many who would not buy a gaming product for good reasons would in the old days buy a CD or now iTunes or whatever file from creepy artist. Just an observation...

    Goodman Games Revives Relationship With Anti-Semitic Publisher For New City State Kickstarter [UPDATED]

    For me personally… I get both approaches. I don’t tend to want to buy from people that are blatantly antisemitic. Or whatever. I think it makes sense for the community of gamers to point out a bad actor. Sometimes they do it for reasons I don’t agree rise to the bar. Sometimes it seems...

    D&D 5E (2024) If Your Builds Not Online By Level 6 Dont Bother?

    I won’t play a build that does not make sense so to speak. As such, I want it online early. Played a dwarven warlock. His patron drove him half mad talkin to him through his axe. By level 3, he was barbarian 1, warlock 2. Now up in the teens, the rp dynamic is still available. I...

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

    I understand the premise of the OP. I get it. But I also get why we often are conservative. Imagine someone trying to change baseball not incrementally but in spurts. Not just infield fly rules or DH for the national league; but big things. Caught dropped balls always mean they are...

    D&D General The First Demise of TSR: Gygax's Folly

    Later in life I got an MBA. It amazes Me that any small business survives long. It is incredibly easy to tank an enterprise. As a younger guy I did not grasp a cash flow problem. How can you be wealthy and not have cash? I don’t think there are many saints in most scenarios but really get...

    D&D General The First Demise of TSR: Gygax's Folly

    All interesting stuff. Dare I fork out 13 bucks for a paperback book? A person can be heroic and villainous both in the same lifetime. There might be limits (I am not suddenly clubbing baby seals nor offering my family home to the homeless…) and a lot of what gets discussed loses this fact...

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

    We invest some trust in the DM to provide an interesting environment and challenges. Why the DM? Because they volunteered to DM and I may not feel like DMing. But more to the point—-you asked why it is set up this way. Well, the game was designed that way because the founders thought that...

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

    Sometimes we have to trust people. We choose who to trust. Often the person who wants to GM is taking on that role with good intent. What about ones that don’t? What about bad police? What about bad doctors? If you find you can’t trust one, their roles need to be torched? Up to us all to...

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

    The responsibility of the DM historically is to referee the game and provide challenges and a framework for the world and challenges. The players, historically, are trying to better their position in the game world. This means they will push for wealth and power much of the time without regard...

    One of my pets is dying so I can’t tolerate a lot right now. Drinking beer and listening to the Smiths. 🤷‍♂️

    D&D 5E (2014) I feel like the surveys gaslit WotC about """"Backwards Compatibility""""

    Here is where I am situated: I like 5e. It like every other edition is not perfect. I feel like what was added on layers made new problems. Not horrible ones but issues. I think the new modules will be good enough for use with 2014. That is not nothing but playing the game 2024 and 2014…it...
