    TTRPG Genres You Just Can't Get Into -and- Tell Me Why I'm Wrong About X Genre I Don't Like

    I said "since 1E." As in, 1E was the last time it was simpler. My bad for being unclear.

    Ben Riggs: 'The Golden Age of TTRPGs is Dead'

    A Discord seems like a great way to make sure your fanbase is insular and ever shrinking.

    TTRPG Genres You Just Can't Get Into -and- Tell Me Why I'm Wrong About X Genre I Don't Like

    In 2E you had to generate ability scores and compare them to requirements before picking a race or class. Then you had to choose a kit and NWPs and WPs. Of course casters had to pick spells. Some classes had to distribute skill points. I don't think 5E chargen is any more complex than 2E.

    Right before it crashed, didn't we see minis for sale for Sigil? Or am I misremembering?

    Wizards of the Coast Head Explains Benefits to D&D Franchise Model

    I have friends that still play DDO every thursday night. And Neverwinter gets regular updates to keep it in line with the book releases. What does a new MMO offer?

    Wizards of the Coast Head Explains Benefits to D&D Franchise Model

    I wonder what the plan is. People already use Beyond at the table, so are they talking about making Maps easy to use on a table display? Or pulling back from VTT elements?

    TTRPG Genres You Just Can't Get Into -and- Tell Me Why I'm Wrong About X Genre I Don't Like

    If I recall, GURPS has lots of those dials, but you aren't required to use them all in any given campaign. It is meant to be customized for the specific genre and milieu.

    Ben Riggs: 'The Golden Age of TTRPGs is Dead'

    Eww. I mean, I like Discord as a tool for comms, whether with my game group or fellow collaborators on freelance jobs. But I really dislike it as a replacement for forums.

    Ben Riggs: 'The Golden Age of TTRPGs is Dead'

    I would argue that they indicate strong support immediately. This is a tough industry, and no one knows what 5 years down the line looks like. The thing about both Cosmere and Draw Steel is they do not appear to have the kind of adoption rate that we are seeing with Daggerheart -- but that...

    And we know that no company has ever burned through its cash reserves before... Look, I am not saying that these games won't be well supported. I am saying that we should not count our chickens. Based on the quality of the game as well as the adoption rate, I believe Daggerheart has real legs...

    D&D General GMing and "Player Skill"

    As has been mentioned many times on this board, folks should absolutely read The Elusive Shift by Jon Peterson for a great exploration of this spectrum early in the game's life.
