"This is the Second Great Digitization of The Game. Contemplate this upon the Tree of Woe." --Doom

So, is that the 2d20 one or the 3rd edition Dungeons and Dragons one? Is there a 5th edition Dungeons and Dragons one? I played the 2d20 one once at a convention. I don't even bother to buy the books anymore. I just feel it would be a waste of money and shelf space. Especially since they are...

Sounds like a fair description of my middle school experience. Sometimes the geeks are eating each other alive in a futile attempt to gain acceptance from the preps. I don't know if that means anything but it sounds cool.

Sounds like fun. Were you playing Dungeons and Dragons?

Come on, that's not a fair characterization and you're kind of punching down on us here. We're simply lamenting from our position on the margins of the gamerspace that we can't find others of our kind to play with. Because, like you've indicated, space wizards and modern magic are more popular...

I ran the 13th level of Undermountain: Trobriands Graveyard as a Mad Max: Furry Road adventure complete with motorcycles, post-apocalyptic rat rods, and mechanical purple worms. I have to admit, it was such a blast that I ran it twice.

I like whatever lines Robert E. Howard was blurring in his Conan yarns.

Spoiler alert!!! I'm on my phone and I can't figure out how to do a spoiler tag. I was put off by the "electric" hotplates and dynamite (complete with plunger detonators) in one anthology of adventures; however, the rocket ship was so over the top I loved it. Only true nerds can stick to...

I'd guess about 90% of the names are from various myths around the world. However, probably about half are unique enough expressions of those myths for Dungeons and Dragons that they are protected. I probably think the dragon thing is easy to get around. For instance, I've never liked the lore...

We need to shout this from the mountain tops! To those who don't already know: We have the game, we can can continue to play Dungeons and Dragons without chasing the Dragon.

I drank my Ovaltine. Now I'm big and strong, or at least not as skinny as I would been without it.

The story they told in this article sounds like fun. The one about a bunch of evil Wizards trying to steal a powerful sacred text that turns out to be completely powerless. If you tried to publish an adventure based on this story under the new "O"GL, would the Wizards be able to shut you down...

We should pay attention to their eyes during the interview--to see if they're trying to send any coded messages in their blink patterns.

I'll see it when I believe it. 🙃

Hmm, what's that on my shoe? Did I just step in something? 🙃

True, but I think it depends less on the Dungeon Master and more on the idiosyncratic culture of the Table of gamers. In my experience, Tables develop a culture of gameplay (an unspoken set of house rules, to say it another way) together, without really thinking about it.

Wouldn't 3z7 make it less swingy and more predictable? Maybe I misunderstand what swingy means.

You're talking about the spell's they get from progressing in their class, right? Rather than the spell's they get from spell's books and schools they've collected and copied. Ever table is different. And I'd rather not put more stuff on the Dungeon Master's shoulders. No, I'm referring to...

It's nice because different tables like different things. Depending on what you like your table can just ignore them outright, make them so ubiquitous that they simply represent a number on paper , or you can search for and collect them as you go adventuring.
