    ZEITGEIST Worldres' Zeitgeist Campaign

    I'm intrigued that you had an article from 12 years on your mind. :D And how things go when you've got two separate unshakable 10% groups. I suppose I'm skeptical. Also, Worldres, I need to commend your players for all the player journals on AO3. I wish I had the time to read through all of...

    ZEITGEIST Worldres' Zeitgeist Campaign

    "Progress does not happen with a single voice." That's a good line. It adroitly sums up a rather long series of posts from Tim Urban of 'Wait But Why' which he sadly took down from his site in order to turn into a book: https://waitbutwhy.com/whatsourproblem

    ZEITGEIST Worldres' Zeitgeist Campaign

    This is amazing. I love all the art. I need to get around to reading the longer pieces. And I'm honored to have something I wrote get even a comparison to the ending of The Good Place. God that show was amazing. I am curious if, like, any of the action sequences in the later adventures were...

    ZEITGEIST Worldres' Zeitgeist Campaign

    My wife and I are in Kyoto on vacation for a couple weeks. Amid a lot of serenity and beauty, your post is like a snort of wasabi. Jesus, that “they won – and so did we” meme burns bright in the pantheon of D&D Lore. Also, yay for Owlbear Rodeo! It's what my group has been using for our remote...

    D&D General Crisis on Infinite Subraces! Suggest a plausible subrace that doesn't exist

    Dungeonborn. It's Dungeons and Dragons, and we have characters descended from dragons. Well we need characters awoken from parts of dungeons. Pittrapfolk. Spikewallfolk. Living sumps. Jailbarmen. Sphereofannihilationborn.

    Spoilers The Marvels (Spoilers)

    Man, I wish Secret Invasion had been used as a premise for, like, Avengers 4. Release it after The Marvels. SPOILERS FOR BOTH Giah (Talos's daughter) is shown in The Marvels as working for Fury on SABER, being friends with Monica, and being anxious about the Skrull-Kree peace talks. After the...

    WotBS New Game Plus in the Fire Forest

    I have mentioned elsewhere that my group needed me to fill in for a few weeks while our main campaign went on hiatus for the GM to plan his wedding. I filled that hiatus with a campaign I knew I could run with no prep: War of the Burning Sky. I knew my group was in the mood for something...

    Loki Season 2 Discussion - Spoilers

    I think 'cannot interfere' is a guess, one I suspect will be wrong. I mean, if Hiddleston wants to retire from Marvel and live comfortably doing Shakespeare in London, he's earned it. But if I had Disney money and a chance to write a multiverse saga, I absolutely would find a way to bring back...

    Spoilers The Marvels (Spoilers)

    Carol has a lot of small moments of frustration because she gets entangled with the other two, and so when she is confident she could whup ass, she sometimes ends up swapping places and so can't hit her stride. In the first movie I don't recall that much real, y'know, swagger. I'd say she had a...

    WotBS pneumatik's War of the Burning Sky

    Yeah in 2007 I had no idea how noble titles worked.

    D&D General Adventure Titles

    I am designing a megadungeon I might publish next year, which I'm calling The Bastion of Ten Dooms. Amid the sprawl of free-form delving there are ten nodes that can have adventures centered on them. Prologue – The Parade of Peril. Adventure One – The Befouled Oasis. Level 1. Adventure Two – A...

    D&D General What does the mundane high level fighter look like? [+]

    Some day I'll make a game where creatures have wound thresholds, where if your attack does at least X damage, the target suffers a wound. Normally you'd maybe roll to determine what wound you inflict (which might, like, temporarily blind, or hobble, or disarm, or apply some other condition)...

    Player Core and Gamemaster Core Remastered Review

    Are there any photos of the interior you could share? One of my qualms with PF2 was sort of the same qualm I had with 4e: the aesthetic being too blocky, too "we took items meant for a video game menu and put them in a book." I prefer the more natural language of 3e, PF1, and 5e.

    Player Core and Gamemaster Core Remastered Review

    This is a universe with magic and miracles. If someone gets shot and their heart stops in the real world, we can seal the wound, perform CPR, and sometimes resuscitate them ten or fifteen minutes after they apparently died. D&D and PF and so many other games make people die way too fast. Like...

    D&D 5E (2014) Justin Alexander's review of Shattered Obelisk is pretty scathing

    I agree with your premise. Just chiming in for pedantry, because that figure of speech is actually spelled in an unexpected way due to its origin: Why Do We 'Bury the Lede?'
