Mortal Kombat is a franchise famous because its high level of violence but there was a MK cartoon for all the audiences that could be watched by children. There was a cartoon of Rambo and others about Robocop. The Toxic Avengers was also a cartoon for children. A franchise for mature audiences...

I guess most of players really only want the setting to be unlocked in DMGuild. If the adventure "Freedom" was too linear then we could start from zero with other adventure, an adaptation of the videogame Dark Sun: Shatered Lands. Here we shouldn't worry about the continuity or metaplot. I...

My point of view may be different because I am Spanish and my History is different. For example we are very used to a "romantic" image about the pirates but for a lot of Spaniards they were monsters who attacked our coast populations to catch slaves, and I don't talk only about England but also...

I bought Warhammer RPG 1st Ed, the corebook and some sourcebooks, and they are a little jewel within my collection, with a lot of retro or vintage vibes when I see the art in the pages. I bought the White Dwarf magazine during some years and I could see the visual change with each new edition...

(Demiplane of) Dementia Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad. In the beginning of time the primal powers ruled the creation, and the genies obeyed their orders. These were fed up with primal powers' arrogance and cruelty, but they couldn't confront them openly and directly. They...

I have learnt to untrust those experts because they can say a different thing if somebody pays enough. We shouldn't worry too much about those potentially problematic details when they can simply be omitted. We shouldn't suffer troubles about the crunch. About the lore we only need a chapter...

The part I find difficult to understand is the criteria for establishing that something is potentially problematic because it lends itself to a lot of subjectivity. Let's imagine for example the sorcerer-kings have used magic transgenic engineering to create a variant of yellow musk creeper...

I guess PCs are allowed to buy slaves when the intention is to free them, this means to pay their rescue. In the region of Tyr there is no slavery, only convicts convicted of crimes such as tax evasion. (Disclaimer, I was kidding) Here the true key is not about somebody may feel offended but...

Your comment has made me to remember the transhumanist TTRPG "Eclipse Phase" where PCs can use different bodies, or to download their minds into other bodies to be used these like "sidekicks". How would be Starfinder if transhumanism was possible? Of course you are free to create your homemade...

I said it time ago and I am going to say it again. We need a coherent and clear criteria about what may be potentially problematic. And we should avoid the double standars. I remember the cartoon "Exo-Squad". it could be watched by children and it didn't show explicit violence but the plot was...

In 2nd Ed dwarfs could be fighter level 15, cleric level 10 and thief level 12.

Dark Sun is like mixing Thundar the Barbarian and the pirates of the dark waters, but "darker", a mixing Conan the Barbarian, John Carter and Mad Max. I guess the adventure "Freedom" could be updated in a way like "Curse of Strand", with new elements but keeping the essence. WotC doesn't need...

Dark Sun could be "played in the wrong way" but that is also possible with the rest of settings. I can understand in the name of good sense somebody asking to avoid certain elements that could make somebody to feel too unconfortable, or for respect of victims from the real life, but some times...

Some times I suspect formians have been cancelled and they don't appear in 5e because they could be used like an allegory of certain faction from the real life. We are in 2025 and this should mean a great difference in the horror genre because today there is a lot of different lines from...

Ravenloft can allow some touchs of comedy, but it is mainly gothic-horror with a lot of tragedy. Here we should avoid troubles and controversies but I guess we are allowed to say when we may feel unconfortable about certain tropes, for example the abuse of "femme fatale" could start to sound...

If we remember the current strategy by WotC 5e books are focused mainly into crunch that could be used in most of homemade settings. Then this comingsoon Lorwyn-Shadowmoor would be more like "book of the dark feys". And then this Shadowmoor would work like a softer version of the Shadowfell...

Let's remember oldest horror movies are +13y or +7y for current standars. "Tales to tell in the darkness" could be a example of how horror doesn't need to be too explicitely violent. I was a child when I watched in TV the horror movie "the Crow" (1963, with Vicent Prince and Jack Nicolson'...

Carvoria. Journey to the Center of the Wildspace. This wildspace is different because it isn't a group of celestial bodies orbiting around a central star in the middle of the void but more like a giant natural sponge full of holes where the life flows. The most important zones are the nodes...

A sourcebook about Innistrad? (a greater space could allow vampire clans or supernatural faction confrontations) Lorwyn/Shadowmoor sounds logical, but if it has got new crunch then we should see some UA. Octuber is a good date for a horror-book because Halloween is near. My opinion is we...

In an update Dark Sun the sorcerers should be primal, at least as option. There was a variant of divine sorcerer in "the complete champion". I didn't like 4ed very much, but the idea of primal source was wellcome. I miss the psions because I like to feel my PC is different and today the D&D...
