Tal'Dorei was the focus of the Critical Role "season 1." This is your "Vox Machina" stories. The only references to Wildmount I recall were a group from there factored into a key plot point of one story. (I listen to the podcast, haven't finished Season 1 yet, though. :) ) They DID travel to...

Bankrobber, by The Clash.

I'll see if I can dig up the old docs, but here's what I recall... For Over the Edge, I just wanted fast and easy rules. Nothing fancy in the hack. I used the core trait system. with a few bits I borrows from WEG. I permit a PC to have a central trait which describes a Jedi or similar, or a...

Regarding sexual assault... I've used it in the past, and don't anymore since having some things explained to me. But even when I used it, it was never the Big Bad. It's a low and cowardly thing that's beneath even my most evil villains, and so the perpetrators of such are worthless nobodies...

Villain in my game did his own eugenics experiments by secretly placing additives in pharmaceuticals his company made, in an attempt to make a literally super super race. This was the origin of supers in my setting, when the experiment went "wrong" and all sorts of people began to develop powers...

The Force Awakens - I like this movie as-is for the most part. Yes, it's basically a remake of SW, but there was lots to love here. But there's some nitpicks... More Max Von Sydow. I mean, really, you hire a legend like that and kill him in the first scene? Edit out Finn's lines about Rey...

If I had to pick a published SW franchise, it's be WEG. 1e for a pickup game, fast and easy. 2E R&E for something long term. But... if I had my pick among the world, I hacked Over the Edge years back and that's always served me well. If i want more gamey, I hacked Dogs in the Vineyard - which...

Good evening, long time listener, first time caller, love the show... First of all, I can't believe no-one else called you on this nonsense. Of course RPG's are cars! That said, I agree with the general point of the thesis, that cramming more and more and more stuff until someone explodes...

I enjoy the show, but really like the Tal'Dorei setting, which I played in before I knew about the show. I'm a little wary this new book is WotC - not that I dislike WotC, but how will the new book mesh with the Tal'Dorei book, which Green Ronin published?

My son said something similar when we watched our non-special edition. I expressed surprise that he didn't prefer the newer effects (notwithstanding Han Shoots First). He said those newer effects in this older movie stole half the charm of the movie away. Those digital effects inserted into the...

I can't pick just one, so I picked Other. I think because it all gels for me as a whole... very likely wrapped in a healthy dose of nostalgia. But... I watched the original the other day - the one I will always call "Star Wars" - for about the twelve-thousandth time. I watched the stupid little...

As a consumer, I have used PWYW as a "try it before you buy it" a lot. Something interests me, I think I might be able to use it, I grab it for 0. Why not? But when I like something... I always agonize over what to pay. Like... what's "fair?" This bugs me every time. I don't want to undervalue...

I'm running D&D these days, but in another game I ran years ago that wasn't D&D, I had large amounts of time between stories. Once as long as seven years, but usually between 6 and 24 months. Players in that game had a lot of fun working with me, playing out scene, advancing their characters'...

20th. Started at 3rd. Though the leveling up process was quicker for this GM than most I've played with in the past.
