Is that maybe because WotC/Hasbro have been doing scummy things for 20+ years? They make products I sometimes like, but that's it. WotC isn't our friend, it's not the friend of the people that work there. To many people act like blind WotC fanboys/girls and not looking at the trackrecord, not...

Oh yeah, let's compare firing someone (a perfectly legal action) with raping someone (a horrible crime)... That's healthy! He's not a victim, he's a worker that's no longer needed and was let go. Was it done at a horrible time at a horrible scale? Absolutely! If you walk into the lions den...

On the other hand, how long has WotC/Hasbro been doing nasty firings, often around the holidays? 20 years? Dan Dillon knew what he was getting into when he signed up with WotC/Hasbro in 2019 or he didn't do his due diligence, but every fanboy wants to work for WotC and work on D&D... Getting...

That you get hired or that you won't get fired anytime soon after you're hired? Sidenote: Many, many comments made by people on Twitter aren't the most tactical, they are often emotional and posting something stupid on Twitter has a really low threshold...

I don't agree with that. Business should never do what their fans demand. They should do what is good business. The customer isn't always right, more often the customer is wrong, very wrong. Alienating their customer base is bad business, going back on that change is good business. That it's...

Extensive experience in IT at many different (big) companies over the last 25+ years as an outside contractor. At small(er) companies you can often do everything yourself, so very agile. At bigger companies everything has been segmented, what you did yourself at a smaller company, now requires...

4 of the 5 members that created our group 35 years ago. Meanwhile some new people joined, stayed a while and eventually left. Most of the core group is left...

Why not build your own VTT? Others have done so and have even gotten a D&D5e license. let's see how fast, how well and how profitable you can make this... A one man team is extremely agile/fast. A small team is already slower and less agile. A multinational is a slow cumbersome beast. When...

That is not how 'profit' works. You take all sales and the subtract all costs of the whole company, what's left is profit. Hasbro isn't making insane profits. They made a loss. And even before that, the profits they made weren't stellar. When you have a family, you also don't just look at what...

This is not an issue inherent to digital media. As others have said, a PDF is also perfectly usable regardless of platform or system. In this case specifically it's the DDB platform that's giving you issues, that's because you don't control your purchase or the platform you run it on. Other...

I don't know how dead the Terminator franchise is exactly when Netflix is doing an animated series: Terminator Zero The thing with the Terminator series is that it keeps coming back... Kinda funny for a time travel IP! ;) I like T2 even more then T1, the other movies I didn't hate, but were...

I suspect that changed when Humble was bought by IGN (2017)... I can't set the publisher to 0 either, it's always 1 cent minimum. ;)

When I try to open the product page I'm getting "Your loot is in another cave...", others might have the same issue... (In different browsers, logged in or out, even in private windows.) EDIT: It's not just this product, but all products, seems there is an issue on DTRPG...

You can, you can also donate directly. How many people do you think know of that and of that know actually do that every time? Edit: I did some math, and the people that adjust the pledge in favor of the charity, it's probably less then 20% of the people. Also keep in mind that Humble will...

That's just a whole lot of marketing, by default divider is: Default Donation (€27.65): €13.82 to Alchemy RPG €1.39 to Direct Relief €12.44 to Humble So most of the money go to Alchemy (and I suspect to FL via license fees) and Humble (Bundle) itself. It might act like a charity...

Yes that's on FL. What's on Alchemy is that FL even has this option on the Alchemy platform. They could of course pull product licenses, that should stop new sales, but shouldn't impact existing sales to customers. What if FL changes their policies again and ask Alchemy to completely pull their...

It's either that or the DM forks over a Bag of Holding, as they quickly get tired of me going: "I don't trust the neighborhood here to park my mule! Let's go somewhere else..." or "The parking is insufficient at that dungeon for my horse and wagon, let's move on..." ;)

Of course, you can download beforehand. But for most consumers, that don't have a backup strategy, when they accidentally delete their pdfs, loose their phone, burn their HDD/SSD, etc. They were expecting to re-download that pdf in case of failure. I expected to do that with my Humble Bundle...

Many folks just bought that Humble Bundle with Free League stuff just for the PDFs. I find it interesting that they can remove things you already 'own' without your consent. Are they also able to do that on services like Humble Bundle itself, Bundle of Holding, or DriveThruRPG, etc? Or is this...

But that's because we're all invisible and we keep missing the critical strike due to this condition... ;)
