    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    No. See, ladders exist in Star Wars. What bothers me is just the way the scene flows. The dialog feels off, the scene doesn't flow well. This is by far not the only scene that has that problem. I don't do doubling down, if I know I'm wrong. But I can't shake the feeling that something about the...

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    Star Wars never really explores the tactics of the empire, and I guess they don't really need to. But it would make sense to surround a planet with more than just one Star Destroyer, if you want to prevent your target from escaping a planet.

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    That's what gets me with this show. It is charming and feels like Star Wars, but in every episode there is always something that is kind of clumpsy. The Leia chase in episode 1, with a bunch of adults trying so hard not to immediately catch her. The slow unnecessary rooftop parcour in episode...

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    Oh, on second thought, you're right! We do see the ladder! It was all so odd. I think what makes it so jarring, is that ultimately it doesn't matter how she gets up to the vent. What matters is that Obi Wan trusts her, and wants to convince the rebel in charge, to trust her as well. We don't...

    How Do You Organise Long-haul Campaigns?

    My pirate campaign has been running for several years, and I've gathered all my lore in 4 books. I have a chapter dedicated to the setting in general, describing factions, regions and certain islands. Then I have a chapter every big location. Every one of these starts with a basic description...

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    I think it was mostly jarring because it was a bad line. If instead the dialog focused on "just giving Leia a shot, she's smarter than you think", it would have been fine. Obi Wan asking for a ladder is just oddly specific. Also, weren't the vents pretty high up? Out of range of most ladders...

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    The question was: is Hayden in the Vader suit in the episodes that feature Vader? And the answer to that is: sometimes.

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    I don't know, but apparently according to an instagram post of someone who worked on the show, Darth Vader is actually played by 3 different people, including 2 stunt men, and Hayden himself. Apparently for most of the fight scenes, it is not actually Hayden.

    Thwarted campaign ambitions

    Well, that's another thing. Jurassic Park isn't really about fighting dinosaurs. Giving the players weapons kind of goes against the spirit of the IP. So is it all just a bunch of chases then? That might get old quickly. I fear the tension of JP simply might not translate well to tabletop...

    Thwarted campaign ambitions

    Jurassic Park. I'm a big fan of the books and the original movies, but if I were to run a campaign set in Jurassic Park, there wouldn't be a whole lot of surprises, unless I completely changed the story. Players should also be able to make their own characters, who should be central to the...

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    I was looking mostly at the shoulders. It seems like Vader has the same body frame as Hayden, so I think it's actually him in the suit.

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    It definitely seems to be Hayden in the Vader suit. He's no longer as tall or broad as David Prowse. The show isn't great, but it is entertaining enough to keep watching. Ewan is great, even if his character always was (and still is) boring. But occasionally there are fun character moments, so...

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    But at least the rebels used a giant Ion Canon to temporarily disable some of the Star Destroyers, allowing shuttles to break the blockade. In the episode there's nothing stopping the Empire from opening fire on the ship really, or using a tractor beam to bring the ship in. It bothers me how...

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    No doubt this show has a huge budget, but is it big enough to pull off some kind of Game of Thrones level battle? It would have been incredible to have a bunch of AT ST's attack the base, and not just another shoot out with Stormtroopers in a hallway.

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    An enjoyable episode. I think this might be the first time in live action, that we see the force being used to pull a spaceship out of the sky. I remember first seeing it in The Force Unleashed. It was fun seeing Vader wipe the floor with Reva with just force powers alone. They kind of copied...

    D&D Celebrity Satine Phoenix & Husband Jamison Stone Accused Of Abuse Towards Freelancers

    Who would have thought a porn star would screw people over? :D ...I know... I know... low hanging fruit. I'll go sit in the corner now.

    D&D Celebrity Satine Phoenix & Husband Jamison Stone Accused Of Abuse Towards Freelancers

    What baffles me, is that they would risk their own career and reputation by not paying the people they hire. Sure, it will get one product out quick and cheap by not paying your artist... but then they'll never work for you again. Surely you want to keep producing products? Apart from just...

    D&D Celebrity Satine Phoenix & Husband Jamison Stone Accused Of Abuse Towards Freelancers

    All I see is two DM's sitting at the same distance as they would be when playing at a table, discussing D&D. I don't see anything in that video that raises a red flag. She seems like she usually is in her videos. Excited about a hobby, with a bit of a sexy attitude about her, that seems part of...

    D&D Celebrity Satine Phoenix & Husband Jamison Stone Accused Of Abuse Towards Freelancers

    I have watched a few of Satine's D&D streams before. This came as a surprise to me, since I know nothing about her apart from those few videos I've seen. It is a shame too. We need more lady DM's representing our hobby.
