I organize by work type. Writers, editors, artists, thanks, and any special cases. I don’t mention hours. I’m putting their name in the book for credit, not to divvy up the check.

Okay. I can answer this. I do have enough of a background to have insight, and have a distinct statement on how I deal with such things. If they worked on it, they get credit. If I buy stock art, they get credit. If a guy reads and offers feedback. they GET CREDIT. See? It's not hard. The fact...

What your advocating is the omission of pattern recognition. The flinch response is based on previous data. My wife reaches for my face, I have a positive outlook on the result possibilities. A person who has hit me, even once, in the past? Not positive. In this case, we have a baseline of them...

If someone means to harm me, and only backs down because he's seen doing it, it is NOT no harm, no foul. That is, “cool. I'll now remove you as a future threat.” which is most of the point of the orc and similar licences. You are free to do whatever you want. I am also free to treat them as a...

The ogl fiasco.

Well, I can see where being negative all the time is bad. Let try this. I heard someone mention that wotc donated gaming materials to a school. Lets see what other good things they did? Anyone got anything? Seriously. Lets look at how they helped in the… lets be generous, last five years. We...

This is why I went to project black flag… I want companies to, quiet bluntly, steal wotc’s talent, eat their profit margin, and hopefully make an example to stop other companies, such as the management morons at unity, from copying this kind of… I don't know what to call it anymore. Comic book...

Oh. I LIKE this. Do it. DOOOOO IT.

A continuous stream of people, actually. Its more like background radiation than a loud voice, though.

Nope. But I've seen companies TRY to make complex things with that level of effort. I have no real issue with the company making this, and its not about if anyone wants it. Its about what I see as an odd trend in rehashing old IP. Feel free to ignore the old man in the corner ranting with a...

Honestly, with Modiphius, not as much? I have just noticed a trend of companies strip-mining IP with minimal effort... That said, I also found this, so bonus for players wanting to have a model to go with it...

I... huh... You know what? This feels like IP fishing. I don't know how else to refer to it. Get an old media, get a license deal, and produce a small run to see how it does. Dunno. Maybe I'm cynical?

We’ll have to wait and see, but honestly, tabletop game design and development is utterly alien to videogame development. Almost apples and oranges. I've done both, and they have about as much as common as novels and tv shows. Annnd, I just realized those differences might not be obvious to...

Giant space gnomes, perhaps?

Just to mention, keep in mind, "culture" in RPGs is never actual culture. It's a flavoring for the environment, characters, and story. A combination of social expectations and guidelines that offer a channel and worldview. And RPG players rarely, if ever, have the option to fully understand a...

<raised eyebrow> Shouldn't that be Nuyen, not gold?

So… battlestar galactic with the I’krl from star-drive?

<raised eyebrow> You are allowed you opinion. I agree that moving on and ignoring it would be the high ground. I also distinctly remember her being "in charge" when WotC broke faith, used what I consider obviously underhanded tactics to do it, and generally earned my ire on a level that...

My baseline reaction what a harsh "HA!", but that was petty of me. And it's not like she was the actual center of this fiasco. She was just the voice and face of it. The real... people... are still there, I feel.

Okay, here's my issue: If I'm playing online, it's useless. If I'm playing IRL, then... people want real miniatures. Tactile stuff. Dice. Books. No matter how you look at this: There is no market for this aside from "Ohhhh! Shiney!" And they can't sustain a business model. Not usually.
