    Elon Musk Calls for Wizards of the Coast to "Burn in Hell" Over Making of Original D&D Passages

    This is something that has fascinated/amused me about this tempest in a teapot from the mild disclaimer noted at the front of this huge celebratory book of reprints. When WB released their Loony Tunes with their disclaimer prefix, I saw a lot of lauding and applauding. "Yes, let's not burry...

    Elon Musk Calls for Wizards of the Coast to "Burn in Hell" Over Making of Original D&D Passages

    Great news! They didn't, and it wasn't an attack (smug or otherwise) on anyone. We can put those concerns to rest now. Fortunate too, because then I'd have to question WotC's attack strategy around this destroying Gygaxian legacy thing. Because putting out a 576 page book (Tome? At what page...

    Elon Musk Calls for Wizards of the Coast to "Burn in Hell" Over Making of Original D&D Passages

    Sigh. Beyond the eyeroll-y ness of how just factually inaccurate his false outrage is (0.18% of the book that lavishly reproduces the original works of Gygax et al gently mentions that some of it may be discriminatory), it's also late. Passé. This book (and the brouhaha that happened on...

    I must be too much of that time/era... none really jump out as being specific, just expected... :D

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    And the fact that in the span of 3 posts they call it both ONG publishing and ONB publishing I'd say doubly confirms it. Competence, it is not them.

    Do you need Archetypes, Classes, and Villains?

    Our group has lots of experience with classless systems, so not necessary for us in the least. :) Yes, they are very helpful to illustrate the type/style of game this is and the activities the PCs are expected to be pursuing and how. And thus this provides another layer of world building...

    Why a rapier is bad for an adventurer

    I've always been partial to the version of Whisky in the Jar by the rock & reel band Tempest... sadly (surprisingly!) they don't seem to have it on YT for easy linking.

    D&D General DALL·E 3 does amazing D&D art

    Having your pants drop in battle is super embarrassing... and he wasn't going to let that happen again! (Nevermind that none of said belts are actually on his pants... :P)

    GMs - Do you get bored when you're a player?

    Huh, it's super interesting to me to see so many "yes" replies. I rarely feel bored as a player, I think the only times I've felt bored are the instances at an unfocussed table with an unfocussed/ill-defined campaign (leading to lots of non-action from the players and hence the characters)...

    .... ok, now I want to play a pixie monk as my next character. :)

    D&D General DALL·E 3 does amazing D&D art

    That's a neat style. Gave it a whirl to see what it is like in Dall-E 3, using nearly the same prompt (only change was to remove 'create' from the start): More variation in the style than I would have anticipated, but 3 and 4 are pretty close to the same.

    Trying to Describe "Narrative-Style Gameplay" to a Current Player in Real-World Terms

    I think I've run that adventure... :) This has been a fascinating thread for me to read through. Introducing players to something new and outside of their previous gaming experience (no matter what direction that might be) is a task unique to each player, and can be even more tricky if their...

    Eric Noah's 3rd Edition Website

    Old enough to be "here" from nearly the beginning of Eric's Third Edition news, reading every single new tidbit of information with great interest. Discussing with my new D&D group (I had just moved too). Funnily enough, it is very similar to when I first started playing D&D, when 2e was on...
