    D&D Movie/TV Chris Pine tells Gamesradar+ he's "pretty confident" Honor Among Thieves sequel will happen

    Oooh I'd love a Ravenloft movie! Or a series, actually.

    D&D General Is DnD being mothballed?

    His rather flippant dismissal of the positive effects of a slower release schedule doesn't sit well with me. TSR made boxes, books, tie-ins with Diablo and StarCraft, and tons of other stuff, but that didn't guarantee a vibrant game. I also was of the impression that second edition AD&D...

    What Game or Publisher Would You Have Be Market leader

    It's an interesting question, and I can't for my life come to a conclusion as to what I think. :D But if I look back at the games that dominated my early gaming life, I'd go for Drakar och Demoner version 2 as the dominant game, and Target Games consquently as the market leader. If we look at...

    Renegade Studios Sends C&D To Stop Small Creator Using The Word 'Renegade'

    Wow. The Polyhedral Knights came out of this looking like real knights. They even let Renegade Game Studios pretend that they had won concessions, thus letting RGS save face. But everything is coming from The Polyhedral Knights, and not a word from Renegade Game Studios. Very disappointing...

    Renegade Studios Sends C&D To Stop Small Creator Using The Word 'Renegade'

    Well I live and I learn. I just learned that Twitter allows accounts to hide replies. For example, Renegade is now hiding replies on their Twitter posts mentioning this legal move. Well, the whole thing might slip below the radar if people won't learn about it, so I guess that's a viable...

    TSR NuTSR Declares Bankruptcy

    Well it seems as if their strategy of leaning heavily on being anti-woke made them go broke. Oh, the irony. (With apologies to Seth Skorkowsky for stealing his joke from Twitter)

    RPG Evolution - The AI DM: The Trouble with Art

    Interesting! Do you have any pointers where I can read more about this. All the Google links I can find retells the "monks copied books" thing. The closest I could find was this (from Who were these people copying manuscripts? The mysteries of medieval scribes - Medievalists.net):

    RPG Evolution - The AI DM: The Trouble with Art

    Didn't monks use to spend a lot of time sitting and copying books by hand? A situation that technology changed quite drastically.

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Direct: WotC's 2023 Announcement Showcase Livestream

    Watching this I realise I am too old for this kind of presentation! :D It's not bad, the presenters are very good and have a lot of energy. It's just ... strange ... to listen to a presentation that is not some awkward gamer telling me about why their game is the best ever. This is professional...
