Wait, they are charging for a playtest??? Red flags already...

Yep, and also most game worlds are written from the perspective of novels, not history books. So things like economics are (as stated) background noise. The other issue is when those issues do come to the fore it ends up being Star Wars, Episode 1, Embargo Wars... and I can't think of...

My nickname. I'm a former pro drummer.

Yeah, NBC did a real face plant in the coverage department. It felt more like watching the Today Show with highlight reels than the old ABC Wide World of Sports Olympic edition... I remember when ABC was the leader in sports broadcasting in the US. World Series, Monday Night Football...

Which is why I mentioned the upcoming and just past games. They 'appear' to be setting a new standard. Let us all hope it sticks.

It might be. That's the problem when announcements are made, often development and PR aren't on the same page. PR just has to release a statement and or pictures and some buzzwords to stay in the brain, development has to release an actual product.

I don't think it ever got past talks with M&M, I know they both did Hero Clix for a time and Topps contacted True Dungeon for a tie in before (the short lived True Heroes) Marvel pulled the license from Topps. That was about 5 years total (I think, I've slept since then. lol) and that seems to...

While I enjoyed your post immensely.... I really seriously doubt it. Marvel has tried to drop rules several times before (Even using Mutants & Masterminds and a failed attempt at d20 Modern) Marvel doesn't have the patience to support any gaming system for long. Air Bender might have a shot at...

This is what's wrong with D&D. the players... Now... D&D is 90% combat look at the PHB, Then... The DM is the only one that knows the rules, not fair!!!! I tells ya, it's enough to make a Rat Bastard DM pull out a copy of Tomb of Horrors and go Medieval on some players. Thunderfoot -...

I have never seen this before... I wish I still hadn't.. 🙄

I'd say for the small polling numbers your statistics are well within tolerances.

Sooooo, back when 4e was obviously pushing a large 3.X audience to start making torches and sharpening pitchforks WotC decided, right 5th edition should be pretty good.about now. I remember being at GenCon when they made the announcement and gave their road map vision of an edition that could...

It's more of 'outrage outrage outrage' oh look a butterfly. It's something to do until the next controversy. Frankly these folks were either: 1) Not around for the d20 3.X everybody on board system. or 2) They weren't paying attention if they were. Crying that it's not fair that a company...

The end of my marriage. 😥

To quote Jeff Goldblume in Jurassic Park. While we are asking ourselves can we do this, maybe we should be asking should we do it. I vote no, on zero death. But hey man, do I believe it can be done, sure.

How DARE YOU, sir! Bringing rational thoughtful ideas like this into a conversation. You should be horsewhipped!!! (I was thinking the same thing actually)

Best pick-up line at 4 am? (pointing at random person of interest) Let's go home, honey.

So I'm forking this over from the KV controversy discussion because it was obvious that a lot 9f people have issues/questions/concerns about these last Winter Games and the Olympic Games in general. And while I'm not an authority, I do enjoy the games for what they both stand for and their...

Um, I def do. However, your assumption is, its snows, so everyone here knows how to drive on it. You are missing the possibility of move ins, new drivers, old drivers and just plain morons. But I get the sentiment.

well, that's true...assuming the person knows how to drive in inclemate weather. Hell, driving in dry warm conditions can be dangerous. deer, reckless drivers, impaired drivers.... add weather and the whole thing can (if you'll pardon the unintentional pun) slide sideways..
