Wow. That’s so rude.

Sorry, I don’t know what this paragraph means. :)

Next year, 2026, Monte Cook Games will be releasing a new edition of its in-house Cypher System rules system. Originally launched over a decade ago, the Cypher System powers games like Numenera, The Strange, and The Magnus Archives. It's a d20-based multi-genre game system known for its...

The scientific method has been applied to pretty much every supernatural phenomena you can think of, hundreds of times. There's a reason there's no proof of this stuff. Who was it? James Randi? I can’t remember who but somebody offered a million dollars to anybody who could show the existence...

I used to get that quite a lot. It used to take the form of an intruder into the bedroom, and me not being able to move. It's quite horrible. It hasn't happened in a few years though.

I don't know if it's funny, but it certainly provides an insight into human psychology.

I'm focusing exactly the right amount on the creator spotlight part. Like I said, I've heard it a dozen times before.

FWIW every other word being in italics just throws me out of any kind of reading rhythm and makes me start doing Shatner impressions. More importantly, it makes the text really hard to parse. Might just be me though.

Wow. This is not a thread about the Forgotten Realms, is it? In fact, when I squint, I'm sure I can see people debating a whole bunch of things which are not suitable for this forum. If you want to talk about world hunger or the philosophical nature of evil or climate change or eating meat, go...

And not being gatekeepy. Picking creators to highlight (and, by definition, creators not to highlight) is never a good idea if you are the de facto controller of the market. It's just another form of control.

I guess if people keep doing weird things like standing in front of your house and taking pictures of it, you might as well try and monetise it.

Sure, but noises in the night aren't magic. They're just things you can't explain.

I feel like I've heard that a dozen times before over the last decade or two. Plus DMsG Adepts again under a different name (and it was a terrible idea the first time round)? I'll wait and see.

What?

I’m so sorry. I’ve been there twice before and it’s the worst.

Also a logical fallacy known as “god of the gaps”. I don’t understand it, therefore it is magic/god/ghosts/aliens etc. it’s actually quite an arrogant mistake—the assumption that if you can’t explain it, that can’t be your ignorance, it can only be magic.

Are we still talking about half-orcs? Right, gotcha.
