    DRM portability question

    Not according to testing that I've done. It does NOT work.

    Will you be purchasing PDFs from DriveThruRPG?

    While it was open on my work machine, I selected File - Save a Copy. This is what I sent home via email. When I tried to open the file, this is when I encountered the first problem. So I figured I would outsmart it. Tried to download the file from home, no dice. I think that this may be yet...

    Will you be purchasing PDFs from DriveThruRPG?

    I wanted to test it first, so I've refrained from commenting until now. My vote says NO, which really sucks, because I was looking forward to the newest Malhavoc product this week. :( Their site is slow at best, and the DRM aspect is crap. I can fully understand a publisher's desire to...

    Dundjinni adventure creation?

    Released to the web shortly after midnight last night. Store is closed now to allow those with preorders to download it. I got my copy around 3 a.m. this morning and am very impressed with it. The adventure creation piece of it is very easy to use. Take some time playing with the options...

    Problems with Gaming Group Member

    Pull him aside, tell him that his behavior is not conducive to everyone's enjoyment and that the group, as a whole, is beginning to enjoy themselves less with his childish behavior. If he doesn't take the HINT, then: BOOT HIM Seriously. This is supposed to be about having fun. People who...

    Drink up me hearties, yo ho!

    Based on what I've seen and read so far, Skull and Bones by Green Ronin is gonna be great. Already got my preorder in, just hopes it makes it out of "layout" soon and to the printers. This is the one game that I think my wife may be looking forward to more than me. Dan

    Arcana Unearthed or 3.5 PH???

    Hmmm, something completely new with variant game mechanics from a designer whose work I admire or a set of changes of which many I don't agree with? Lemme think for a minute....AU it is! Seriously, AU promises to be useful in a variety of ways. Incorporate the new stuff into your existing...

    Rant About Recent Dungeon Magazines

    Erik, As one of the people who was critical of the direction Dungeon had taken, please let me say "Thanks" for at least deigning to come on these boards and let us know that A) you're listening and B) you're going to do something about it. I look forward to a change in direction for this...

    Monte Cook reviews 3.5

    I fail to see how Arcana Unearthed (or any other Malhavoc product for that matter) is threatened by 3.5. All of the products that have been published and are to be published should integrate fine into your game regardless of whether or not you are running 3.0 or 3.5. As with any product to...

    Sinbad As Epic Game? (spoilers)

    Saw it last night with the wife and kids and loved every minute of it. To me, the storytelling, effects and overall mood of the movie showed what I aspire to in the campaign that I run. And, best of all, to have my wife, who plays, but really can't let herself "go" to roleplay, it was like an...

    *Almost* had the new PHB, darnit

    COMPLETELY tongue-in-cheek here, guys, but in this case LAWFUL GOOD = LAWFUL STUPID As I said, completely tongue-in-cheek, no harm or offense intended :D Dan

    Kudos for Talon Comics

    In the interest of not posting only negative comments to these boards, I want to give proper respect (and thanks) to Derek at Talon Comics. I pre-ordered the core rulebooks from his site on Thursday, and, by a wonderful snafu via Paypal, my default bank account was charged rather than the...

    Wal-mart and 3.5

    Well, as I somewhat expected, I just received notification that my order has been "Delayed". As I expected this to happen, it is Wal-Mart we're talking about here, I had already made up my mind to order from Talon Comics if that happened. So I immediately cancelled the order from Wal-Mart and...

    Meta-Buying

    Speaking only for myself, I agree with you whole-heartedly. There are several companies that no matter how great their product may look or sound, I will absolutely never buy. Two of which I think you're covering here. My money is better spent lining the pockets of individuals and/or companies...

    Is Ghostwalk any good?

    Didn't mean to bust your ****s there, Chef. Just seemed as if the whole thread was rapidly heading into the realm of an ongoing argument about the ethics (which I do question) of the suits at WotC. Hopefully, no offense taken as there was none meant, Dan

    Is Ghostwalk any good?

    None taken! :) While the above referenced article (from Sean himself, no less) indicates that he was laid off, it was my understanding that Sean effectively fell upon his own sword and offered himself up for being laid off. Once again, I could be completely off base, won't be the first time. Dan

    Is Ghostwalk any good?

    Feel free to flame on if I'm incorrect, people, but I believe that both Monte and Sean left of their own volition. It's my understanding that Monte voluntarily left well before the first pass of layoffs and that Sean left immediately preceding them as he was heading on to other ventures anyhow...
