    Spoilers 3 Body Problem

    Oh yeah, one other thing I was going to mention is that the most unrealistic thing about the show: humanity finds out that they will be endangered in 400 years, and humanity collectively drops everything to focus on the problem? Would absolutely never happen. I do enjoy how they never even...

    Brennan Lee Mulligan to GM Critical Role Campaign 4

    I had zero interest in Daggerheart before I read this, but now I am that Leo DiCaprio meme from Django Unchained.

    WAR OF THE WORLDS Trailer

    Actually the best War of the Worlds iteration is 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim but not enough of y'all are playing peak video games so I don't know what to tell you. Tom Cruise running really fast a lot carrying a screaming Dakota Fanning wasn't too terrible though

    Spoilers 3 Body Problem

    I liken it to Umbrella Academy, where all of the characters are deeply broken morons but also I love them and they're my deeply broken morons.

    Wow this is an absolutely epic combination of poster name/contributions to this thread

    What videogames are you playing in 2025?

    Diving into Tactics Ogre Reborn once again; hopefully this is the time I finally do a full playthrough on all three paths and complete all of the Coda. New update for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 dropped I think yesterday, so it's a nice time to pick up what is almost certainly going to be the...

    There's A New Edition Of The Cypher System Coming

    I will have to checked out the revised rulebook then. I can't speak to all of the supplements and third-party stuff, but that level of guidance and empowerment to created your own focus is I think all that's really needed.

    There's A New Edition Of The Cypher System Coming

    My biggest issue with Cypher, at least from what I've been able to find, is how little guidance there is on developing character creation elements. Focii in particular are the most specific and character-defining aspect of creation, but they're the hardest to just make up so out of the box...

    Spoilers 3 Body Problem

    Just binged this show while my wife was out of town and... I'm having a hard time figuring out exactly how I feel about it. I mean, it definitely has some of those wild swings in quality that we've come to expect to from the makes of Game of Thrones. The pacing is all over the place and the...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I think maybe I was unclear; what I meant was that the whole "you play D&D? <scoff> You should play a good game instead" attitude is the security blanket. Like... everybody knows how counterproductive and condescending it is but some people just cannot let it go.

    Itch.io is shadowbanning or deleting NSFW and LGBTQ content

    Sweet baby is probably a reference to Sweet Baby Inc., a perfectly normal sensitivity consultation firm in the video game industry that became something of a rallying call for the sorts of folks who make lists of games to boycott because they might have a gay character or woman with any sense of...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I swear for some people this exact attitude is their security blanket. They fall back on it because they don't know anything else, and it's deeply comforting. Ah yes, the absolutely singular way in which South Carolina is superior is North Carolina; SC BBQ sauce is far and away the best BBQ sauce.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    "dork :):):) losers" will always remain one of my favorite lines, thank you to a real one for giving that to the world

    John Kovalic Looks Back On Over Two Decades Of Munchkin

    Our favorite was always to mix Munchkin Bites with Munchkin Cthulhu. Swarming cultists was like the new version of running the Elvish Mafia from the original game

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Time for one of my favorite games, trying to figure out how exasperated the mods are by what shade of red they're using for their text

    Itch.io is shadowbanning or deleting NSFW and LGBTQ content

    This is so important; the whole "do my homework for me!" is such a massive bad-faith tactic that it is difficult take it at such face value that you're willing to dedicate your own time and energy to appease somebody you can't even be sure is actually engaging you in good faith. Best practice is...
