    Goblin Slayer TTRPG preorder

    About the same as many Japanese manga books. Not newsprint quality paper, but certainly not heavy and bright white paper. I don’t know enough about all the technical ways to talk about paper but not tissue thin so it will fold or tear easy and an off-white tone but smooth. Ink is not intense...

    Goblin Slayer TTRPG preorder

    It finally came out this week and I have all 600+ pages of it in hand. Manga digest size - slightly smaller than A5.

    Jamison Stone & Satine Phoenix's Apotheosis Studio To Wind Down [UPDATED]

    That accusation is the reddest of red flags to me. The rest is just noise in the background in comparison.

    OSR WW2: Operation Whitebox - Fantasy Grounds version

    I played this game at a few conventions in the past and always likes it. It is a chance to use the original D&D rules to fight Nazis as a special operative during WW2z When I saw that there was a Swords and Wizardry ruleset available for Fantasy Grounds, I talked the developer into making White...

    DTRPG Says 'Don't criticize us or we'll ban you'

    There were more updates to their policy than just the hostile marketing one. My statement is in regard to their policy on posting strong political views in public without their written permission. It has zero to do with attacking them or encouraging others to attack them.

    DTRPG Says 'Don't criticize us or we'll ban you'

    That is the problem with the politics rule that was posted. You can post a very strong free speech belief and then get pegged as a Nazi afterwards even if that is not what you said. There are a lot of people whose views I strongly disagree with or hate. In the very narrow context of free...

    DTRPG Says 'Don't criticize us or we'll ban you'

    I think you certainly do have a line. I know of very, very few people that would want to open an RPG work and be confronted with something like child pornography. My personal views on politics and art/entertainment I enjoy are also pretty broad and there are lots of writers that I probably...

    DTRPG Says 'Don't criticize us or we'll ban you'

    You don’t know who Raggi is, but you immediately call him a Neo-Nazi troll. Because he was defending himself, so you know he is a Neo-Nazi troll. I don’t think he even mentioned the “hostile marketing” policy. His video was on the need permission in advance to state personal views in public...

    DTRPG Says 'Don't criticize us or we'll ban you'

    It is not that “xxx” does not like it. If they don’t like it, no one can. For reasons. And xxx will keep talking about it and point attention towards what they don’t like. Which is most of the point why a few people try that silly marketing style.

    DTRPG Says 'Don't criticize us or we'll ban you'

    The question being asked is about supposed “alt right leanings” etc. The question is - where do you draw the line on not carrying vs. not buying. I don’t buy Venger’s really weak attempts at satire because I think they are not interesting RPG material and based on other similar things he has...

    DTRPG Says 'Don't criticize us or we'll ban you'

    Second person to call others Nazis in this thread. I called the other on it and they blocked me. Tiresome - don’t like them, must be Nazis. There are a whole bunch of people that at least market that they are at different extremes of views (hard to figure out if this is just an attempt at...

    DTRPG Says 'Don't criticize us or we'll ban you'

    Dismiss other views and call them Nazis. I went to his blog site. More praise for them approving the recent one that was pulled to be examined. Found their review fair and reasonable. And the staff professional. I have found his marketing persona childish but a decent amount of his actual RPG...

    DTRPG Says 'Don't criticize us or we'll ban you'

    Almost all kickstarters that deliver PDF files to me have been through Drivethru. I always imagined that there is some charge to the IP owners for those discount codes. Enworld does have a large megaphone - this site. I think a large number of IP owners are much more dependent on DTRPG, but I...

    DTRPG Says 'Don't criticize us or we'll ban you'

    My views on OBS’ policy is that they are a private business and it is their right to carry what goods they want. I don’t think that that they such a tiny business as they are dismissed as, 40 full time employees is pretty large in the RPG space, they basically are the Valve/Steam of the RPG...

    DTRPG Says 'Don't criticize us or we'll ban you'

    Why would anyone care what you would have to say, if being dismissive of other’s views is your motif? I only mentioned it because of mention early in the thread of this being due to Venger. However, his reaction to the item being pulled was to say he thought that OBS’ system was fair. Does not...

    DTRPG Says 'Don't criticize us or we'll ban you'

    In case anyone cares, Venger said in his email after the latest product was pulled (before the policy change) that is was not OBS that pulled it, it was due to a complaint and that he felt bad for them for the extra work and generally the released what was complained about within 2 weeks. He...

    Wizards of the Coast Employees Walk Out Over Hasbro's 'Tone-Deaf' Response to Overturning of Roe v. Wade

    This is where I draw the line. I am pro choice. My company immediately added the benefit needed to pay for travel to do this procedure and the statement was stronger that Hasbros. This does not mean that well held points of views of others are invalid. The act of granting the extra rights to...

    Anyone has experience with Hyperborea?

    Sort of a mix of Basic and AD&D (AC goes to 9). Only humans. Interesting classes and a very well done theme. I always enjoy being in a game.
