Problematic content is acceptable even if it isn't obviously and explicitly evil and/or meant to be fought. It just needs to be handled with a little more care, and isn't for every game table. Even then what is problematic is a sliding scale, what is problematic for some tables won't be for...

I agree I would go as far to say to some degree setting doesn't even need to be fantasy. There were a load of d20 variant games like Judge Dredd, and a Call of Cthulhu that I was put off by the level/class structure.

You would need to roll d% on the "flightless air shark table" applying the appropriate modifiers for starting altitude and surface being flown over to determine the result. Don't roll high.

I think Dread was influential, not in the fact you saw everyone playing with Jenga towers, but you did see more non-traditional resolution mechanics after it.

You might have noticed that about all those titles I mentioned.

I'm not sure I understand the question? Non-gaming hobbies, is that a thing?

Valhiem again, after finishing Satisfactory, and the available content for Enshrouded. Also playing HumanitZ.

Dune: Adventures in the Imperium Dune: Desert Planet Star Trek Adventures Walking Dead Universe RPG

Did any of the original authors or artists agree to it?

Sure hope the tariffs are gone by the time this ships.

Steve Jackson Games have blogged about the tariff situation, I've quoted it here as traffic seems a little heavy on their site since it got mentioned on Reddit. https://www.sjgames.com/ill/archive/2025-04-03

I wonder what will happen with places like Chaosium that have both US, EU and UK warehouses, will they put the price up for everyone or will there be a noticeable price difference between the US and other shops. Put it this way if they try and spread the cost across to UK customers I won't be...

Actually that already went on the 1st Feb, which affected a lot of boardgames back then.

I don't play D&D. Currently I play Star Trek and Dune in person. I previously played D&D online during Covid, but as soon as being in person was an opinion switched back to that.

AI art programs struggle to create anything they have never been trained on. A prime example of this is ask it to draw a glass of red wine full to the brim. It can't as it has only ever seen wine glasses full to halfway. Similarly it won't have images of collision like the one you want or dead...

Never had a tattoo, or know that many people with them to know what the convention is.

I would say tipping for served or delivered food, isn't even always expected, or at least it wasn't until say after 2020. If you have good service/food you might have left 10%, or just throw a few extra quid/£5 on the table after playing the bill. With large group yes it was expected. Now as we...

I think this is the most likely explanation.

Okay after listening to Hank I don't think I have an internal monologue most of the time, until I try and put ideas into words. I mean as I type I am thinking about the words, but really only because I am typing. I'm not really hearing them before I type them however they just seem to flow after...

What's the point of the GM then? Couldn't you all just be players and let the rules handle the GM side? But so can the players, because the DM has the flexibility to adjudicate things on the fly that aren't coded into the rules. If they are under strict rules then they aren't free to make it...
