    What is/are your most recent TTRPG purchase(s)?

    I broke down and ordered the Draw Steel core books. A little extravagant since I don't know for sure i will run it, but, hey, it's Christmas.

    Trailer Avengers: Doomsday | Only in Theaters December 18, 2026

    Overt 4th wall breaking "jokes" in things that are not intentionally surreal or post modern comedy really works me. It is never funny, and almost always the creators patting themselves on the back for being clever. Just tell a good story.

    Avengers Doomsday: We're out of ideas, but we know you don't care.

    CRPGs as the foundation for a TTRPG Campaign

    I was thinking about this in a structural sense last night while unable to sleep. The way I would do it is have a place like Fort Joy in DOS2 and create a bunch of two page spreads. On each spread, there is a overlay of the location. teh first spread is a Side Quest overview, with call outs for...

    That's a weird way to spell "hoard."

    CRPGs as the foundation for a TTRPG Campaign

    I am currently playing through Divnity orginal Sin 2, and it got me thinking about using a CRPG as the foundation for a TTRPG campaign. I have done this to a limited degree way back in the day, using the officla prima guid for Fallout 2 as my campaign "module" and doing whatever conversions I...

    General video game discussion

    I pulled the plug and reduced the difficulty of my DO2 game to "Explorer."

    It was on YouTube briefly. I saw it the same day the Cap one released.

    Trailer Avengers: Doomsday | Only in Theaters December 18, 2026

    Again, I don't want them to wedge the X-men into the MCU Avengersverse. I wish they had started over with the X-verse.

    What kinds of games do you like, and why?

    Note: this is in Geek Media because I am interested in folks' preferences beyond RPGs. This thread is about RPGs, but also board games and card games and video games and all the genres and sub genres within those media. So what sort of games do you like? Not just medium wise, but genre and...

    What is/are your most recent TTRPG purchase(s)?

    Today I went to my FLG/CS (that isn't so Local since I moved) and bought the Alien RPG Evolved Edition. I have always liked the game but never owned it in dead tree before, and since Alien: Earth I have strongly considered running it for a short campaign or convention campaign.

    D&D 5E (2024) Where Are All The New Books In 2026 (D&Dfans article)

    I think HAT is really good and easily matches mid tier MCU films in quality. But that wasn't enough.

    I seriously doubt anything like this happened. Do you have a source?

    Trailer The Odyssey | Official Trailer

    For me, the most disappointing aspect of Troy was the lack of supernatural elements. So I am perfectly happy to.endure Nolan's color pallette and sense of style for an Odyssey with God's and stuff.

    Trailer Avengers: Doomsday | Only in Theaters December 18, 2026

    Solo is a better movie than most of the post-Endgame MCU.

    D&D General Does WotCs “Happy Holidays” post confirm a Ravenloft book in 2026?

    I wasn't saying WotC will do that. I was making a joke about formerly creative companies going back to the well over and over again as well as "refining" their successful formula into obsolescence.

    D&D 5E (2024) Where Are All The New Books In 2026 (D&Dfans article)

    This last bit doesn't track because the movies you cited made tons of money during the same stage of the pandemic. D&D is not a huge draw at the theater. It's okay to accept that.

    D&D 5E (2024) Where Are All The New Books In 2026 (D&Dfans article)

    There is no way that there were enough people that knew about, much less cared about, the OGL debacle to significantly impact the box office success of HAT. HAT failed at the box office because as big as D&D is relatively speaking, it is still niche compared to things like the MCU, Star Wars or...

    D&D General Does WotCs “Happy Holidays” post confirm a Ravenloft book in 2026?

    Only if they abandon their legacy customer base.

    D&D General Does WotCs “Happy Holidays” post confirm a Ravenloft book in 2026?

    Maybe they'll update CoS for D&D 2024. I mean, it works for Skyrim...
