    D&D General WotC Continues D&D's Advance To Digital First Brand

    I prefer physical books to read but at the table, I still prefer D&D Beyond for general character sheet management. I’m not sure that I’m particularly worried that they’ll stop print books one day, in part because I think there’s always going to be a market segment that wants the physical book...

    Eggses!

    Fried, Over Easy but I usually need to order them Over Medium in diners instead because I’ve gotten a lot of runny egg whites before.

    Your most pointless TV/movie/book nitpicks

    My favorite nitpick is when a movie has an implausible chase scene in a famous city that ultimately takes people from one end of the city and back in minutes. Case in point: the famous car chase from Bullitt which starts in the Mission District, magically teleports to Russian Hill and North...

    D&D's Obelisk Plotline Was Supposed to Be Resolved in Vecna: Eve of Ruin

    Correct, it’s a tangential gripe about Wizards inclusivity policy. Thanks for posting it a third time.

    D&D's Obelisk Plotline Was Supposed to Be Resolved in Vecna: Eve of Ruin

    Anyways, regarding the article, it really sounds like they could’ve benefited from some internal story bibles if that was truly the intent. Also consider that possibly Perkins wasn’t as communicative as necessary to drive that point about the obelisks versus it being a mistake on the part of the...

    D&D's Obelisk Plotline Was Supposed to Be Resolved in Vecna: Eve of Ruin

    Both of the YouTube links in the last two posts I quote-replied to go to the same discussions of Wizards’ inclusivity review policy. 🤷‍♂️

    D&D's Obelisk Plotline Was Supposed to Be Resolved in Vecna: Eve of Ruin

    Okay really sounds like you want to have a debate about inclusivity in games without actually saying that and just linking to the same clip over and over. Kinda not cool.

    I don’t understand the context of the clip you selected to the article.

    Into the Halls of Sartor

    Oh gotta love it when they have easy returns like that! I’m going to guess with Gustin it’s because they crowdfund the jeans and maybe that makes dealing with returns more difficult? I may try it because the price is low enough that it’s not much more than some store Levi’s now.

    Into the Halls of Sartor

    The one that keeps coming up for me on this is Gustin, and I keep meaning to give them a try. My issue is I have this hangup around trying things on before I buy, but I really need to get past that.

    D&D Movie/TV There’s a Baldur’s Gate TV Show Coming!

    I don’t know if it makes a difference whether it’s tied to D&D or Baldur’s Gate 3 or whatever they chose. There’s always going to be expectations when it comes to movie or tv show adaptations.

    Taylor Navarro Joins Wizards of the Coast as D&D Designer

    Hmm. Trying to grasp emotional attachment to lore because to me, those are two distinct things. Emotional attachment can come regardless of the lore. To me, when one talks of lore or canon, it’s a very “left-brain”, analytical bent their taking on the material - not an emotional one.

    Taylor Navarro Joins Wizards of the Coast as D&D Designer

    Even if one is just reading the books or the modules and campaign books as a pseudo story, one has to be prepared to be maximally flexible with regards to lore and canon.

    Into the Halls of Sartor

    I am a pretty basic jeans and t-shirt type guy but even there I’ve noticed that the quality of clothes had dropped considerably in the past decade or more. Right now one of my favorite stores/brands is Buck Mason. They don’t have a huge array of color - here be whites, black, browns and greys...

    Which team will win Super Bowl LX?

    Someone said it on Bluesky and I agree: if you couldn’t find joy in the Bad Bunny show, that’s a skill issue.

    Taylor Navarro Joins Wizards of the Coast as D&D Designer

    Before people starting hating on Drizz’t (largely because 2e stats at the time made him into an untouchable demigod), the kids I was playing with loved the Drizz’t books. Dragonlance too. We couldn’t always play the games as kids but the books made us feel like we were still connected to the game.

    Which team will win Super Bowl LX?

    The game was boring but I was really just waiting for Bad Bunny.

    D&D Movie/TV There’s a Baldur’s Gate TV Show Coming!

    This was my issue. I did not want to have to think about the components of the PC at all.
