I started playing with 3E. I read a ton on older editions and old-school D&D. But to be honest, it's all a blur in my head. I know there's some of the games where the races are classes, where some are not. I know some have THAC0, and others not. I know there's ten foot poles, and gold gives XP...

Obviously, there's dozen of different examples of fudging and we would probably all have different opinions on them. Let's look at other examples. Some from this very thread. One of your players has missed his attack three rounds in a row. He rolls a 15, you look at your notes, that monster...

Fudging is very bad. Your players might never know you did it, but it many cases it robs them of their agency. They make some choices, you have to make some rolls and you just outright decide the outcome. It's very unfair and there's very few players I've DMed for that would have appreciated it...

If it can reassure you, I've always had very adequate shipping speed and customer service from Free League. But as others have mentioned, every non-mega corporation RPG publisher right now is struggling to get their product on shipments. All kickstarters were late, and the last two pre-orders I...

What I want is evocative art. I find most art that's published in the books of big players to be certainly adequate and technically impressive, but to me it has no soul. It almost all looks the same, different artists all brought under a very inoffensive and bland art direction. I want...

Kevin Crawford (Star Without Numbers, Worlds Without Numbers) does a spin on this. You can get the books for free, but there's deluxe editions that have some additional stuff in it. For example, in Worlds Without Numbers you get all the stuff you'd expect from a core rulebook for free. The...

Wait, you guys get hoverbikes?!

I've seen this suggested often. But I really dislike it. I don't think having people not roll the dies and use their high bonuses is especially rewarding for being good at stealth.

I'm a bit uncomfortable at the idea of casting an actor for a role of someone that's actively defending his country and might be assassinated any day.

Anyway, these art piece from Beeple are absolutely incredible for a game with sci-fi themes. Couldn't ask for better art!

I am very excited. I was not impressed with most movies and shows that Disney released, but the rumored Kenobi movie/show has always been at the top of my wishlist.

Some of his work, prior to a specific year is Creative Commons to my understanding. The creator of 24XX wrote en email to Beeple to ask for permission and Beeple said something along the lines of "naughty word big companies, but if you or other indies want to use the pictures, that's all cool." If you...

The truth is that I personally don't really enjoy playing TTRPGs. It's not like I don't understand, I see why people enjoy it. But I don't. I don't dislike it, but it's very meh. I'm a forever DM and I'm pretty critical of other DMs around me (I won't tell them) but I think I just never played...

I'm interested in this bundle. Does anyone know if they just dump 493 products in your library, or is it all under one umbrella bundle? I don't want to flood my library with possibly 400 products I'm not interested in for a few dozen I am.

I received the order today! As I mentioned, I printed a ton of other TTRPGs, but the cover of the 20XX stuff are gorgeous. Here's a picture.

The name also doesn't say much. It sounds more like an adventure, or a setting than a game. The name also kind of implies somewhat dark, maybe gritty? Where Dungeons & Dragons is much more neutral and describe much better the general fantasy genre. For years I thought Shadow of the Demon Lord...

I just bought them on Itch.io on creator day and sent to to get printed at my local print shop. Bought a couple of micro-RPGs too. Should be receiving them on monday.

I'd argue that the newer generations of player are already looking for something similar. We probably don't live in the same country, cities and are of different age, but the social circles around me have ton of new players brought to the game through Critical Role and they're pretty...
