I started with 3E, and to me D&D never really reflected much of Lord of the Rings. There's obviously a huge and undeniable part of the DNA of D&D and fantasy as a whole that comes from it. But D&D was always too pulpy to feel Lord of the Rings. To me, Lord of the Rings always felt very coherent...

Yikes, indeed. But not surprising. Most of digital stores reserve the rights to close your account and everything you bought on it. Very often, they'll say that they are not selling you the product, but a license or rights to access aid products; and that's generally relying on you being...

I backed Horizon Rising!

Would anyone mind sharing the table of contents?

I also dislike PDFs. They're useful in some ways, but I can't be bothered to read on a screen and nothing comes close to the tactile experience of going through a book. I also buy my TTRPG books as beautiful objects in addition to the content and game they offer; not unlike someone would by some...

This is entirely off-topic. But does anyone know how the hell Landon Jamieson is? I keep seeing him posting stats about kickstarters non-stop in the comment sections whenever I go check comments for information on the products.

I'm not a big cartoon guy. But this already looked aimed at big of an older audience. I didn't watch the first campaign of CR, but I'm curious and will surely give this a try.

First Resolution: Try new systems I've mentioned quite a few times how during the first year of the pandemic I compensated my inability to play TTRPGs (in person) with buying systems and studying them. I put my purchases on hold for now. 2022 is the year I'll dig through and play these...

The tabletop game is one of my favorites and I fully agree that the art has a very huge part in the game's success (at least in getting it picked up the shelves). I didn't back the Kickstarter but I've been keeping an eye on it. I'm a bit torn, because I have little interest in PbtA system, but...

It's hard to explain why, but as a french Canadian, this hit really hard. We were all proud to see a french canadian in Hollywood, and I've received several calls from friends and family saying how horrible it is. Along with Denis Villeneuve, they both became symbols of french Canadian cinema...

I'm still at time in my life where things move so much from month to month that I hardly ever attain the goal I set myself at the start of the year, but I end up in a different and unexpected place with plenty else to show.

There's absolutely some benefits to having a very simple process. But for me the process of 5E is way too streamlined and uninteresting. The reality is that the players have almost no say in their skills and they barely increase over time. There's a bit of you made these choices during character...

Someone told me the book was merely a rearrangement of the bestiary parts of Volo's and Mordekainen's and not a brand new monster books. How true is it?

It's not the same in every country. A few generations ago, in Canada (or at least the french-speaking part of it) the common term people used moved from Indians to Amerindians. Nowadays we use the term First Nations or autochtones which basically means Indigenous in English. It's just...

The fact that the study of indigenous cultures is still called that in the US is in itself a problem.

It was one of my first thread on ENWorld. The vast majority of popular YouTube channels about D&D are really bad. I also found very few articles worth anything. The world of blogs is really good though, I found several dozen great blogs about TTRpgs.

Anyone has experience running M-Space? It looks interested, but the previews are pretty limited on DriveThruRPG and I have a hard time finding some reliable information as to what type of sci-fi game it is and what to expect.

I'm very curious about the next WoD releases. I just hope they really improve the editing and layout of the books. I thoroughly enjoyed the content but I found it near impossible to peruse effectively through it during play.

I'd like to nominate Orbital Blue by SoulMuppet Publishing (KS Link). Backed the Kickstarter, saw a preview. But I haven't received my copy yet! It'll likely become available in 2022 if I had to guess. I'm very excited.

Forbidden Lands does promote the use of a Stronghold with things to improve, their cost and a list of resources. There's also tables to roll on while the PCs are away.
