    Here's VIN DIESEL Playing That D&D Game!

    Couldn't watch it. Everyone was too into their RPing and not enough humor. Not trying to knock it. I just found it uncomfortable to watch.

    "Tabletop D&D Has Lost Its Way" Says Pathfinder Video Game Exec

    I beg to differ. I could go into more detail summarizing a quote a few sentences long but then it wouldn't be a summary anymore.

    "Tabletop D&D Has Lost Its Way" Says Pathfinder Video Game Exec

    To summarize: D&D is great but Hasbro is impossible to deal with.

    Isn't this exactly what happened to Anakin Skywalker?

    Do alignments improve the gaming experience?

    My view of the D&D alignment system (which I am in favor of): Lawful Good: "I borrowed my neighbor's lawnmower with his permission. I accidentally broke it. I will pay to have it repaired and I will mow his yard for a month to make up for it." Neutral Good: "I borrowed my neighbor's...

    D&D 5E Initial D&D Next Releases Showing Up on Barnes & Noble Website

    Considering that video games cost upwards of $60 not including the DLC's that can be purchased on top of that, the amount of value you get from the books far outweighs the 15-30 hours you get from the standard single player game. $50 for a book that you will get years of value from still seems...

    D&D 5E Why I Think D&DN is In Trouble

    Battleship was so wonderfully bad. Hollywood is officially out of ideas.

    D&D 5E Why I Think D&DN is In Trouble

    Oops. Perhaps I misread the announcement. From a D&D Insider renewal email announcement from Jan 28th: Starting in March of 2014, the DDI tool set (Character Builder, Adventure Tools and Compendium), will no longer be updated with new 4th Edition game content. It seems that the tools will...

    D&D 5E Why I Think D&DN is In Trouble

    Let's just hope for the best. I am, however, a little miffed with announcement that they will be removing all 4e tools from DDI once Next is released. Perhaps I can convince them to rethink that decision.

    D&D 5E Why I Think D&DN is In Trouble

    I'm not trying to convince you of anything. All I said is that we don't know what the final product will be. You know as much as I do, which is nothing. I am only making the assumption that they won't make managing encounters more difficult than it is in 4e. Of course I may be incorrect...

    D&D 5E Why I Think D&DN is In Trouble

    Without having seen the final product it is difficult to make those sorts of final judgements against Next. I think min-maxing character choices is a wasted effort that only takes into account damage output. Damage isn't everything and it should never impact your choices and the narrative that...

    D&D 5E Why I Think D&DN is In Trouble

    Rules Wars Personally I think the ruleset is secondary to the fact that no matter what the rules are it provides a framework in which to tell and interactive story. As long as the rules don't get in the way of that story then it's fine by me. I played Basic/AD&D from about 1980 until a bit in...
