    Free League Announces Anime-Inspired Twilight Sword RPG

    As far as I know, 2LM also haven't shared too much. But the Discord is definitely a good source (at least Rico is active there quite regularly). And there's 2LM Adventurer's Club Facebook group, where 2LM also post news.

    Free League Year Zero Engine

    I have the impression that pushing rolls is basically always factored into the game design. That's not a problem for me per se, but it does mean that my enjoyment of the game hinges on how well pushing is implemented. Which is a bit hit and miss across the portfolio. Yeah, it's quite swingy and...

    Free League Announces Anime-Inspired Twilight Sword RPG

    Also, IP considerations aside, it feels a little too close to its sources for me to enjoy. I think 2LM are great people, but I'd prefer if they were willing to give things their own spin a bit more than they do. I might still buy the game, because I'm curious, though 🤔

    Diablo RPG Kickstarter signup is live

    Yeah, these were pretty good indeed. I'm not sure if they will do it, because this seems like a D4 TTRPG, but finding a Skin of the Vipermagi (or similarly well known items from D2) would give me some joy :)

    Diablo RPG Kickstarter signup is live

    I guess that really depends on when you play(ed). I bought the game when it was out and played the campaign in the following weeks, and I quite frequently had other players show up for overworld events. Now it was never hordes of players - I don't remember there ever being more than three random...

    When you play in person, where do you play? (Poll)

    When I still played in person regularly, I was driving to a player’s house. Mostly because the majority of the group stayed in the same area, but I had moved away. Before that we switched places semi-regularly (mostly because most of us were students and one home was as good as another). These...

    Diablo RPG Kickstarter signup is live

    Yeah, that's a pretty impressive roster! I'm wondering a bit who gets to be Diablo makes the final call for design decisions, but this certainly looks more interesting rules-wise than I expected.

    What are your thoughts on roll-under/roll-high mechanics?

    I generally like the mechanic, but I tend to agree - while you can do additional adjustments, I feel roll-under generally works better if stats for PCs and NPCs/monsters are in the same range. @vivsavage : If you are not already familiar with them, it might be worth checking out Pendragon and...

    What's Your Price Limit?

    I think this is the key point for me, too: like many people in the hobby, I buy more stuff than I read, let alone play. Theoretically, I can sustain my TTRPG needs completely from what I have in my shelves and on my harddrive. I continue to buy more stuff, but that's mostly because either I find...

    John Kovalic Looks Back On Over Two Decades Of Munchkin

    Even twenty years after I first played, I'm still a fan of Munchkin, and Kovalic's art is pretty much ingrained in my mental Munchkin image. I doubt I will buy the new box, though, because unfortunately, with three players (it's one of the games I play with my parents), the original game simply...

    D&D General 70% Of Games End At Lvl 7?

    Tend to agree. While we did have power level issues around level 11 or 12 in 3e, and I also found 5e to become less interesting even a bit earlier, the major factors for campaigns wrapping up or falling apart were rarely system-related.

    Which Chips (or Fries) Are the Best?

    This thread is generally really good at increasing my appetite for fries (of any kind) 😅 That being said, while I picked steakhouse fries, really most of them are fine (and crinkle-cut used to be the canonical fries for me for a long time because that's what we usually had at home when I was...

    Mortal Kombat 2 - Official 'Uncaged Fury' Teaser Trailer (2025) and Mortal Kombat II | Official Trailer

    Looks fun! Not sure if I will really go to the cinema, but I'm pretty sure I'll catch it on Blu-ray or whatever thing it's streaming on.

    Free League Year Zero Engine

    First statement is true - Dragonbane and Symbaroum do have their own engine (d20 roll under), as has The One Ring. The second statement, however, is IMO only kind of true. It's correct that T2K has its own system which (mainly) uses two dice which go from d6 to d12, however, Free League has...

    Tomb Raider RPG Cancelled For Creative Differences

    I think Evil Hat even mentioned at some point that FATE is well past its peak, at least sales-wise. At least if I remember correctly, especially Blades in the Dark was selling well, and generally Forged in the Dark titles as well as PbtA stuff was doing ok.
