Off the top of my head: 1) Adventure modules took way too much of my time to make work. 2) System designed to make players feel powerful and unstoppable; I like stories where the protagonists succeed despite the odd against them. 3) Attribute bonuses are too impactful. They should not influence...

Great list! This is also my favorite horror movie. Heck, maybe even my favorite movie. If you haven't seen it, this 5 hour deep dive into the film is amazing!

I can't speak for everyone, but for me at least, I think I've gotten better? Since the time I started my own thread on the subject, I've been trying really hard to "exercise" my "image muscles" to better play Dungeon World with my friends and now I'm at the point where I can at least visualize a...

All time favorite for me!

Lucky! How did it go? Did you finish? That is certainly is on my "bucket list". I haven't picked this one up yet. Any idea if it's worth while?

Realms of Cthulhu is a great product that not only has a ton of setting info and crunch, but also acts as a tool bag filled with adjustable mechanics to dial in the exact type of game you want to play. It is certainly worthwhile to pick up. It's been a very long while, but I recall running a...

That's a really good point. I'm seeing a version of the comic where she says she "loves seals" and then the sea lion pops up to pester her about her hate for sea lions. 😄

A hard "no"? I wasn't expecting someone to be so squarely in defense of the lady's actions, even going so far in saying she was validated! Understand the sea lion's behavior is bad, but if the topic expressed wasn't one of bigotry (since sea lions in this world are sentient) or there was a...

Also, understand the gist of the original sea lion comic, but wish the author used something trivial for the topic, like not liking syrup on pancakes or something. As is, what the lady said was a bit rude and kind of deserves to be called out, right? :sneaky:

That makes sense to me since it's a basically a verbal DoS attack. If that's what's being scrutinized, then I'm all for it. And understand the example was kind of silly, but wanted to use something "light" as an example rather than a controversial topic where these things tend to happen.

I chose Animal Handling, Medicine, and Investigation because those were the three I buffed in my home games. Animal Handling - Taking this got you a free, loyal, non-magical pet! Medicine - Includes use of poisons. Also, I was pretty generous what it could be used for when it came to...

As someone who joined ENWorld specifically to read about experiences and opinions different to my own, I would hope that in itself isn't something viewed as negative. For instance, I can't stand FATE or PbtA games. If I start a thread about what system I should use for a Halo campaign and...

@trappedslider I've never heard of that movie but looks really good. Rather than going to the theater, we've been enjoying rolling the dice and buying old classic movies in 4k we haven't seen before. Saves a ton of money and we have quite the collection of awesome movies now. This will...

I might have to take a look...

Shadowdark for me! Runner up would be Lancer though!

Grab the free versions of each! Both are practically complete games that have terrific tables that can be used with any system.

Wow, didn't know that about half of these authors and I was raised LDS!

Agree. As someone that has been reading forum posts for ages, it certainly seemed the culture was shifting organically and gradually overtime. It started as self-aware humor, then to personal campaign preferences, then to expectations for the game itself to change. I think another factor too...

That is truly awesome, good job.
