    I think as long as you stuck to the actual show and game and not the author, you’d be fine.

    People have been discussing HP throughout this thread without resorting to the obvious stuff that’s against the forum policy. I mean, are you trying to get this thread turned into something else?

    Unpopular Geek Media Opinions

    There was a whole big long thread just a few months back about Howard and Lovecraft, and I don’t think either got a pass. I would actually say in probably both cases, both authors have had several biographical and academic papers written about their various issues and the impact on their...

    My two cents on the Potterverse: A lot more people would still be enjoying Harry Potter if it weren’t for JK Rowling’s personal opinions, but the latter is enough to dustbin the former IMO since there’s plenty of other fantasy to choose from. Harry Potter was popular, accessible, and caught on...

    D&D General 6E But A + Thread

    I think that’s because the flaws of previous systems were much more glaring after a few years of play and it created a rebound effect. 5e may not be perfect but it’s generally palatable to a lot of players and that’s after 10 years of play.

    Our Physical Fitness

    The one nice thing about taking a week off and eating a bunch of junk is that first workout when you get back to it can be absolutely incredible.

    D&D General 6E But A + Thread

    I think having a clock system for challenges, chases and the like would be a good addition, particularly if it gives rules for how it applies to skill and spell use.

    Critical Role to Use D&D 2024 Rules For Campaign Four, Expands to Three Tables and Thirteen Players

    I don’t like calling on anyone in particular but if they stumble across this and wanna offer their viewpoint, that’d be cool.

    Critical Role to Use D&D 2024 Rules For Campaign Four, Expands to Three Tables and Thirteen Players

    Such is the economics of game stores. There’s a lot of factors to their continued viability beyond just D&D. All I’m saying is that if I’m judging by the activity in the store, and the percentage of space dedicated to the games, D&D is probably not the primary driver.

    Critical Role to Use D&D 2024 Rules For Campaign Four, Expands to Three Tables and Thirteen Players

    If I’m judging by the games played in game stores locally and the space they dedicate to various games, I would say Magic and Warhammer matter more than D&D.

    Have You Used The X Card Or Seen It Used In Person?

    Only one case of an X card instance, and it was a fellow player with severe arachnophobia so the DM did a quick retcon on the monster for the encounter. Easy peasy, and play resumed as usual.

    D&D General DMs, how do you handle 'split party' situations?

    Our sessions are only three hours long once a week, so time at the table is more important for us.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I could answer that for you, however we need to determine exact requirements, meet with your ISSO/Cyber team, conduct feasibility studies, spec hardware, vet cloud infrastructure offerings, matrix out the synergies, cost out the licensing details (naturally we'll include Agentic AI and RAG in...

    Worlds of Design: The Problem with Space Navies, Part 2

    My space navy would be heavily influenced by a combination of Space 1889 and Silverhawks (alien gangsters driving convertible roadsters in space), so I'm going with Not worried about realism.
