    D&D General D&D Creator Summit--VTT & One D&D

    I agree. Some things Wizards/other gaming companies (since we seem to keep mentioning Wizards) can do: Keep working to improve material and get as many different eyes on the total material as possible, not just the sections they feel might toe a line. Be proactive policing their boards and...

    D&D General D&D Creator Summit--VTT & One D&D

    I wonder if we will see that, given that many states in America seem to be going now for transparency about what an actual salary is. I know NY state pushed through something where they can no longer say a job pays 'between $35-70k'. But, for the same reason companies in America don't want...

    D&D General D&D Creator Summit--VTT & One D&D

    I don't know if it's been said, but I feel comparing MMO in-game behaviors and consequences to what we're talking about about content creators harassment isn't equivalent. Blizzard or Square-Enix can absolutely lock down accounts in-game and on their boards. They can post 'that's not cool' on...

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie Cast Plays A Game Of D&D!

    It feels a lot of people felt the same way about the LotR show on Amazon. Probably dropped in to check it out and saw it wasn't what they expected and checked out. About the Vox Machina show, I wonder how many people tuned out after/during episode one and feel it was jokey and Bad. I told a...

    D&D General D&D Creator Summit--VTT & One D&D

    At no point did I say either should be permitted to be abused. I'll try another example: Writers. If I tell you I'm a writer, generally the expectation might be that I am a writer of fiction/non-fiction. If I tell you I write technical manuals, that is a completely different type of writing...

    D&D General D&D Creator Summit--VTT & One D&D

    I think the issue is that for a lot of people, a content creator and a freelancer are two different things. Think of Venn diagrams with overlapping circles - some content creators also write freelance WotC/3PP material, and some content creators only run livestreams, while some freelancers have...

    D&D General D&D Creator Summit--VTT & One D&D

    As an old white guy, I don't feel this sounds super weird. As an outsider, I related to Tanis as well for obviously different reasons. Do you think something like CR's mixed ancestries might work? In the new Tal'dorei book, they talk about mixed ancestries without using 'half-', and they talk...

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie Cast Plays A Game Of D&D!

    Since they obviously recorded it, I would wager we'll see it eventually, even if it is a DVD bonus or heck maybe during some re-release add a showing of the game. Clearly they seemed to enjoy it

    D&D General D&D Creator Summit--VTT & One D&D

    I didn't get the impression the question was about getting a speedier press release out as much as the impression people were going ballistic at Ginny Di (hypothetical example), or any other influencer. I didn't read that they wanted quicker answers; the WotC people were asked specifically for...

    D&D Movie/TV Free 'Honor Among Thieves' Bundle Includes Characters & Magic Items From The Movie

    I thought with his little belt thing in the Triabor scene where they went flying, he was some kind of clockwork sorceror and the little gadget was for working his spells

    D&D Movie/TV Free 'Honor Among Thieves' Bundle Includes Characters & Magic Items From The Movie

    I did also enjoy the fact that Simon was a sorceror was viewed as 'bad'. That this was a failure on his part, him letting his esteemed bloodline down. And for the record, I absolutely LOVED all of that scene during the attunement.

    D&D General Creating a Pride Flag for my D&D setting

    First, I find this to be some amazing world-building, so kudos to the amount of thought you've put into it. I liked your comments on Norse elves and genderfluidity. How many beasts alone is Loki the mother and/or father of? I understand what you're going for, but maybe as an outsider here (I...

    Which of these six is the best H.P. Lovecraft story?

    I thought it also would be a useful resource for a modern Delta Green, when you have the guy freaking out and shouting Pleasant Green into the phone because he knows, for some reason, it's an ECHELON trigger word.

    So, so good. Saw it opening night with the Q&A about it

    Surreal Conspiracy Horror: A Public Access Review

    I think this sounds awesome. In a weird way, it reminds me of a game a friend of mine used to run back in the 90s, I believe with Beyond the Supernatural. He had a National Enquirer day-a-page calendar, and each story had the possibility of being a hoax, having a different explanation or being...

    It tracks. More AI means more people are unencumbered by jobs and can enjoy the Maximum Utopia provided by the UFP

    How would you make a canal city work as a fantasy RPG setting?

    You could have some Innsmouth-type interaction here where the aquatic/'fishmen' grab people, or even better find ways to seduce and indoctrinate minions, leading to their followers developing an 'Innsmouth' look of their own

    Which of these six is the best H.P. Lovecraft story?

    In a weird way, they're almost a perfect CoC mini campaign I'd say, with the way they connect the stories

    Which of these six is the best H.P. Lovecraft story?

    I highly, highly recommend the BBC podcast called the Lovecraft Investigations. They update The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, the Whisperer in Darkness, and Shadows over Innsmouth and connect them under the premise of being a true crime podcast. It's well acted, it's really solid. And since...
