Oh...oh, man. I think I need to go lie down.

Yeah, poor Laura if that’s true best 3 of 5d6 and still manages a 3.

My favorite of theirs is Walpurgisnacht.

Extra Credits did a 3-part series on JRPGs vs Western RPGs. It's worth a watch.

I’ve always liked Dragon Quest more than FF. Dragon Quest 11 is so, so good.

If people are interested in reading about Stoics and Stoicism, I'd recommend Ryan Holiday's The Daily Stoic and Marcus Aurelius' Meditations. The Daily Stoic is a daily devotional. Each day's entry starts with a quote from a Stoic philosopher and a short discussion of that quote with modern...

Exactly. The referee isn't going to protect the PCs from the players' choices. To me, that's as it should be. Likely from people who don't have experience with this style of play.

Sorry, but to me that's the opposite of good sandbox design. The world exists entirely independently of the PCs. There are no such things as "level appropriate areas." If the players pay attention, they'll be able to tell when they're in over their heads. Letting PCs run is also a great move.

That's me more excited to actually watch this.

It certainly can lead there, for some. There's a lot of toxicity in many Stoic spaces. But I think that's mostly the era we're living in and the internet rather than anything inherent to Stoicism. People taking the ideas and twisting them to suit what they want rather than learning from what's...

Yes, absolutely. Not a chance. As mentioned there are too many contradictory rules, too many exceptions, etc. You'd need a computer to run everything and feeding the rules into an “AI” and asking it to run a game RAW with all the rules would likely result in the robot uprising. It's dead...

$40k short? They’ll make that tomorrow easily. I dropped that into a converter and it spit out $1,175,365.25 as the magic number. That is a lot of money. Maybe take the win.

Same. Absolutely love that game. Still play it occasionally. Beaching your ship and walking across land to find treasure, attack towns, etc. The dancing...ugh. Such a great game.

Capitalism proving yet again that necessary services should not be tied to the profit motive.

Best of luck to your striking postal workers. Hope they get everything they want and more.

Of the Mongoose editions, I liked 1E because it at least looked and felt closer to the original. Of the various editions over the last almost 50 years there’s nothing I’ve seen that will pull me from the original 1977 Traveller. It’s just too streamlined, too light, too open of a system...

RIP Jane Goodall. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/obituaries/dr-jane-goodall-legendary-animal-rights-advocate-dies-91-rcna235001
