    D&D 5E (2014) Will you continue to give WotC D&D your $$$

    After discussing it with my group, I've canceled my D&D Beyond subscription and have decided to not purchase any more D&D materials from Wizards of the Coast or the DM's Guild (3PP publications from DriveThru RPG are still OK, though). We'll lose the convenience of being able to update the...

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    I'd really like to know who those vendors are so I could never buy anything from them.

    My wife and I have been talking about that since all this hoo-hah started!

    Jamison Stone & Satine Phoenix's Apotheosis Studio To Wind Down [UPDATED]

    In this case, this WAS Satine's second, or even third chance, depending on who you talk to. I hope, and I mean this in all sincerity, that she's DONE in this industry. Jamison, too, after some of the stories a couple of the freelancers told.

    Jamison Stone & Satine Phoenix's Apotheosis Studio To Wind Down [UPDATED]

    IIRC, Kickstarter has an official policy of "no refunds." Any project that has issue refunds has done so because the project creators have integrity. So, I'll keep asking for a refund knowing it'll never happen because they don't have integrity, and until they block me, I will keep reminding S&J...

    Jamison Stone & Satine Phoenix's Apotheosis Studio To Wind Down [UPDATED]

    I'll stop snarking when they stop lying. I invested close to $150 in this Kickstarter. Previous updates indicated they were 90% done. Now they're taking time off until Dec., going to work only on weekends, and it's another TWO YEARS? Please. Someone has been lying about how much work is...

    Jamison Stone & Satine Phoenix's Apotheosis Studio To Wind Down [UPDATED]

    Queen of D&D Satine Phoenix and Jamison Stone have deigned to update their Kickstarter backers. TL;DR: They are working on it alone, but aren't starting until Dec. Their estimated completion is at least year after that. None of the backer questions regarding funds, refunds, the self-insert art...

    D&D 5E (2014) "I would play in a 5e game with no caster classes at all" (a poll)

    If I'm going to strip that much out of D&D, then I would play a different fantasy RPG that supported that kind of gameplay out-of-the-box.

    D&D General Keys for Planar Portals

    Planescape used a variety of different things to active portals in Sigil (and elsewhere in the planes) ranging from the mundane (a rusted key) to the metaphorical (the bottled sigh of a forgotten hero). What are some other good planar portal keys? (IIRC, there isn't an official list; it was...

    I'm sure Gen Con is wringing their hands over this one.

    Deinhart and the publishers of Giantlands. Aka Wonderfilled or Wonderfiled depending on the number of typos in their name.

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    One lesson Ernie has learned is that engaging as himself is a losing proposition, so he has adopted a ostrich strategy, i.e. burying his head in the sand until the danger passes. Sadly, he doesn't seem to realize that we can still see him. Ernie has had decades, if not a lifetime, of people...

    How Relevant is Gencon (or Any Con)?

    As an independent author with zero marketing budget, having the ability to safely attend conventions removed has utterly destroyed my sales. I'd have a trickle of ebook sales throughout the year, but at Gen Con (or Game Hole), I'd sell scores of titles, clearing enough to pay almost all the con...

    Sirens: Battle of the Bards: An Interview With Satine Phoenix and Jamison Stone (Apotheosis Studios)

    There's no significant IP here. This was a vanity project, through-and-through based on all the art of Jamison and Satine starring as major NPCs in the book. For all their talk about the Apoetheosis Studio team, it's just a couple of folks operating out of their living room pretending that they...

    Sirens: Battle of the Bards: An Interview With Satine Phoenix and Jamison Stone (Apotheosis Studios)

    And they've taken down their Discord where there was a Current Events channel where people were discussing this Kickstarter fiasco. Silencing their critics seems like good way to rebuild good faith.

    Sirens: Battle of the Bards: An Interview With Satine Phoenix and Jamison Stone (Apotheosis Studios)

    And it is utter, absolute HORSE HOCKEY that a media outlet got that information before the backers that contributed nearly $300,000 to the project. At this point, I will assume that I am correct in my assertion that a significant portion of the money was spent on cruises, personal luxury items...

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    The episode about the folly of racism with aliens who were literally half white and half black. It doesn't get more in your face than "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield."
