    Looking for a Cyberpunk Genre Game

    What was your beef with Cyberpunk Red? I like the genre, but outside of the videogame 2077, I've never played the TTRPG, or any other TTRPG in the genre, for that matter. I was thinking of picking up Red and suggesting it as the next thing to play once we wrap up our D&D campaign. Also, since...

    WotC Apparently an FR fan that also happens to be an investor asked CEO Cox a gew questions.

    This is of course unsurprising, but saddening regardless. The people most catered to by the company couldn't care less about the actual products they're making.

    "I'm a [BLANK] kid!"

    My first CD and my first Cassette were the same album.. And I got the CD first. My brother bought me Stunt by Barenaked Ladies. It was Christmas 1998, or maybe 1999. Fast forward ten years or so, and my first car was only five years younger than I was, a 1997 Dodge Neon, and it had a tape...

    D&D 5E (2014) Hasbro CEO Chris Cocks Would Like To Explore Kara-Tur

    Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty is one of better received sets from Magic's current standard line-up. It was an all around good set. The cards and the mechanics were fun, and the setting and art was all very flavorful. I wonder if they gave up on the MTG-D&D crossover products. I'd buy a Kamigawa book...

    That looks great.

    "I'm a [BLANK] kid!"

    My hometown actually still has an operating Drive-In Theater. It's not as good of a deal as it used to be.. It's $10/person now, rather than charging per car like they did when I was younger. But that's still a heck of a deal for two movies. And their concessions are super cheap too.

    "I'm a [BLANK] kid!"

    I often think about how I got to live through a really interesting transition period as far as phones went. As a kid I used to have to get off the internet in order for my mom to make phone calls. I remember being able to call phone numbers without dialing the area code. My parents got cell...

    How Do You Feel About Published Adventures as a GM?

    I was more clarifying for the sake of ENWorlds large international population.. But yeah.. Isn't it wild that that Borders closed over a decade ago? Remember how back then Barnes and Noble was like the "Big Bad Guy" as far as bookstores went? And now they're like the last bastion of retail...

    "I'm a [BLANK] kid!"

    I was a Dexter's Laboratory, PowerPuff Girls, and Ed, Edd, and Eddy kid. Dexter's Lab was the first time media exposed me to D&D. When I was a kid Space Ghost had retired to become a late night host. Then Moltar went on to host Toonami. I was very much a Toonami kid.

    How Do You Feel About Published Adventures as a GM?

    This is something I've noticed. A lot of people complained about this with Baldur's Gate 3 as well. The beginning of the game makes it seem like you're on a two or three day clock. I was afraid to take a long rest for the longest time because I was worried about it, only to find out I was...

    How Do You Feel About Published Adventures as a GM?

    When I started playing in the early 2000's I didn't know there was such a thing as published adventures. We bought all of our books from Borders, which is a now defunct chain bookstore, similar to a Barnes and Noble. It was cool that they carried these books, but they didn't carry a wide...

    D&D General Thoughts On How To Get a New Race Over

    I'm surprised Goblins, or to a lesser extent Kobolds haven't gotten the PHB treatment. It seems to be a universal experience that parties will adopt an NPC goblin, and I've played in tons of games the featured Goblin PCs. At heart everyone just wants to be a funny lil guy.

    D&D General Thoughts On How To Get a New Race Over

    I love this so much. I just now decided I will also have a Goliath Kingdom in my world.

    At My Most Burned-Out in 35 Years

    I can certainly understand that. My group is similar in the sense that I'd have a very hard time removing any one individual player. Something you could maybe try is to give some of your enemies the same powers that your players have, and show them being used more effectively. Like have the...

    At My Most Burned-Out in 35 Years

    I've told my players that I give them gold from monsters as a short cut to this. Like would a dire rat have two gold pieces? No probably not. Rats don't do commerce or have an understanding of currency. But you did the rat room. You went in, killed the rats, and as a way to short cut the whole...

    At My Most Burned-Out in 35 Years

    Do you tell them they finished the adventure site? Just say "Hey gang, good job. The goblins are all dead, the gold is all looted." Some people will claim it breaks verisimilitude but I think it's an often better option than dawdling.

    D&D General Greyhawk to Faerun and Beyond: A Multiversal D&D Lore Book Is Coming This Fall

    Well this is a neat product I didn't know I wanted. Perhaps this is a way for WOTC to take the temperature of the consumer base and see what they're interested in. If this sells really well maybe they'll take it as a sign that there is a desire for more setting products.
