Depends, what kind of story is being told, what kind of atmosphere is being set, and what kind of technical designs are being implemented. What would Star Wars be without the X-wing and Tie fighters? As for nuke it from orbit, why don't we do that now? We have the capability, we threaten with...

Yes both split their product lines. FFG only on the 40k side and not on the WFRP side, which at the time made a LOT of sense. C7 is imho only 'splintering' 40k with W&G and IM, as HH might be the same setting, but GW also made that a distinct game from 40k (one might even argue multiple...

WFRP4e (2018): 31 distinct physical products/books (not counting special editions, etc.) (WFRP2e had 29 physical products) Soulbound (2020): 15 distinct physical products/books (not counting special editions, etc.) With the big difference being that WFRP had 3 editions and 32 years of content...

Shees, can't we have any fun before someone rains on our parade... The art in the twitter post is obviously inspired by a parade, Mardi Grass or the Rio carnival. Those are all inspired by far older European events/parades that were eventually exported with the colonization of the 'new world'...

Don't you mean your fantasies... ;)

Isn't there just a lot of negativity on Twitter in general? Drama seems to drive 'clicks'...

Quite a few actors get a flat fee, regardless of how well the movie/tv series does. Singers are a special case due to how music is distributed these days. But back in the day of records, tapes, and CDs, many music makers only got paid a flat fee. And even if they got a royalty, record companies...

Does the lineworker that made assembled your phone get paid every time you make a call? For a corporation like Hasbro it's way saver and cheaper to just pay the artist for their work without royalties. Cheaper because if they have to pay royalties they need to keep a whole administration to keep...

Because the convergence between D&D fans and Taylor Swift fans must be huge... ;)

It's on my wishlist to GM, but after Spire and a couple of other niche RPGs. They've raised £150k+ already with almost 2k backers, so they are doing well!

I really like the design and illustration. That said, I do NOT like it as a Topaz dragon in D&D: #1 The floating spine crystals, while cool make the dragon look too fantastical for it's 'family'. And I say this fully realizing that the Topaz dragon concept is already pretty fantastical... #2...

BG4: Who would make it? Give it to a new unproven studio like Giant Skull and the audience will have zero confidence in it. But which of the established game studios would want to make it without being 'booed' out of the room by fans? But blind fans will probably preorder it anyway, so it's up...

A couple of caveats: The English version of Shadowrun Anarchy is less 'good' then the French version (or so I'm told), and there's an Anarchy 2.0 being worked on. Personally I found Anarchy the other extreme, where SR 1-6 are incredibly crunchy, Anarchy is so rules light you might have to use a...

We're all our own problem! ;) I'm from the Shadowrun side of things and have similar issues as you have with Cyberpunk. I do not like the new Shadowrun 'world', I would prefer to keep it 2050-2060. There were issues with the old rules, and issues with the new rules. So IF I ever run SR again...

That's because you don't take into account how long a generation is. In PHB 3.0 the 'adult' age of a human is 15, 40 for a dwarf and 110 years for an elf, you can directly translate those ages as generations. So for every 120 years, that's one elf generation, 3 dwarf generations, and 8 human...

Netflix Apple TV+ (part of family subscription including music, and storage) Prime TV (probably killing that later this month due to a massive price increase) Disney+ (already killed that almost two years ago due to a massive price increase or ads) Crunchyroll Viki Rakuten Someone else at home...

But you need to eat so many of them to feel full! ;)

I'm 49, so pretty old. It really depends on the quality of the remakes. And as we are deep into RPGs, the idea of alternative realities is an easily accepted situation. For Superman I actually prefer more recent TV series 'versions' to the movies, I really liked Smallville and the newer one...

Zelda want's it's main protagonist back! ;)

No, it isn't, but paying for something that you don't need for a price you're not otherwise willing to pay, is charity. I see often people talking about products they'll buy to 'support' either their LFGS or publisher xyz, even though they don't actually 'use' either the gaming support at the...
