    AD&D 1E Whatever happened to the 1E Iconics?

    Only reason it ever seemed uphill on the way back was because we were all drunk on the walk back. It wasn't just uphill, the world itself decided to make it tougher by spinning and teeter tottering. That's just how it was back in the old days when we could have beer for lunch and 1/4 of our...

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D 2024 Player's Handbook Reviews

    I don't know if a majority use feats. I KNOW a minority uses them (obviously, many people on these forums). I know they add complexity (and that along with weapons and other items make the new rendition of D&D more complex), and more complexity adds a layer of headache for many DMs. I'd...

    Eric Noah's 3rd Edition Website

    I believe I had a registered account. It's an account that I lost (along with my Dragonsfoot one) from back then as I got super busy for a while and much internet accounts and other things were lost during that period of time. Most of the others are from my return, of which I've been able to...

    Pathfinder: The Dragon's Demand Reveals New Trailer, Kickstarter Launching Soon

    Well, as I became an official supporter when they updated to include a GoG release, I hope they get the game finished, and after that hope that they actually DO release it for us GoG players.

    D&D 5E (2024) Best AP for 2024 Game? Can Include Paizo/Older Editions.

    I own it in hardcopy. I haven't read it yet. Looked at some of the overviews of it and am excited about it. Too much gaming stuff and too little time. My next APs I'm running will be Abomination Vaults 5e, and then maybe Waterdeep Dragon Heist.

    Hasbro Hit With Layoffs, Wizards of the Coast Impacted

    Which would you rather have though, layoffs before Christmas so hopefully you know that you are going to have less money, or layoffs right after Christmas after you've spent all that holiday money?

    D&D 5E (2024) Best AP for 2024 Game? Can Include Paizo/Older Editions.

    I would hope it is. As I comment in my post, it's one I haven't run yet.

    D&D 5E (2024) Best AP for 2024 Game? Can Include Paizo/Older Editions.

    They ported two into 5e. One indirectly and one directly. They ported Kingmaker indirectly, by releasing Kingmaker as a PF2e hardback and a supplemental 5e book that had the monsters as such for 5e. They ported Abomination Vaults directly into 5e. It is currently available in hardback. If...

    New review critical of DUNE: PART TWO based on the depiction of Chani

    I agree, that could be true. I didn't see the director commenting on this, so it could be that she saw what was happening differently than what the director saw. As I saw the interview before I saw the film (at least I believe I saw it before the film), it's also very possible that what I...

    I AM KING OF THE WORLD! Ranking James Cameron's Films

    I think it should include movies written and/or produced by James Cameron because it changes the dynamic of the list quite a bit. As the list is...no problems with it. As it could be with the above items...could be a much more dynamic conversation.

    New review critical of DUNE: PART TWO based on the depiction of Chani

    I think what people are trying to carve Chani into in this thread is extremely confusing. In the interviews the actors gave prior to the movie it was explicit that this was going to be more about female equality and empowerment. The explicit reasons for her leaving were not due to some...

    New review critical of DUNE: PART TWO based on the depiction of Chani

    I have to admit, I don't see it that way. I think more people will see it just as @Hatmatter stated, she is upset that Paul is not going to be a monogamist with her as his solo partner. In fact, in the lead up to this film, I recall they did interviews with Zendaya who expressed similar...

    Trailer Love Hurts - Official Trailer (2025)

    Nice music. Unexpected. I had no idea what to expect when watching this trailer, and my expectations at the beginning were absolutely subverted. Rian Johnson could take hints from this trailer on how subverting expectations actually works. I wonder if he kept his #1 Realtor status?

    The Smurftastic Smurf RPG is now on KS.

    It wouldn't work with the rules I read on the KS, but it would be great to run this game (since they include the most notable smurfs) as a killer campaign where as each smurf dies you can replace it with another. Death is frequent and plenty. It would simply be to see how long it would take to...

    AD&D 1E Whatever happened to the 1E Iconics?

    And this is how you know they used the UA way of creating character stats (even for the non-human races, which isn't according to the rules in UA). Just LOOK at those ability scores! When was the last time you saw a character with THREE 18's rolled in 1e or even 2e???? (or even BECMI???)...

    D&D General Ever hear someone talking about D&D out in the wild?

    Enough that I don't reallly want to start listing all the times (partly because I can't remember all of the times, and partly because it would be a long list for me). I hear about it quite regularly in the wild. The last time was when I was out this past week trying to see if I could find...

    New review critical of DUNE: PART TWO based on the depiction of Chani

    Bombadil (and other elements) reminds us of who the actual audience of the book was. The Hobbit, and it's ensuing sequels (the Lord of the Rings) were written for children...or more specifically...Tolkien's Children. It's not supposed to be heavy, it's not supposed to be full of adult ideas...

    New review critical of DUNE: PART TWO based on the depiction of Chani

    That could be a fun twist and actually bring an end to the movie trilogy in a more conclusive manner than basing it off the end of Messiah.
