Connecticut special: mustard, bacon, sauerkraut, and relish. Yum!

You are lazy and basic. I told you where to look. Learn how to use Google. You don't have to be on Twitter. I'm not. You can still read Tweets.

What about "check the Alexandrian twitter" do you not understand? If you insist on specific posted links, you are lazy and basic. I'm not here to do your homework for you. Do you not get Google? It's not hard. Make an effort.

3e D&D. The OSR is typified by rulings over rules and is rules-lite as a result. So a rules complete version like 3e or Pathfinder fills the bill.

As a 1e completist, I would fully admit war dogs as long as some PC had the Animal Handling proficiency to handle the dog. I am in favor of players understanding the rules and then employing them in their favor. This is a great example.

Adding the tavern is a serious cliched plus. Hackneyed as hell.

This is a very wise comment. I do think a "serious" D&D movie is possible, but I agree that such a movie must omit many gonzo D&D tropes.

This isn't about WotC dumbing down, it's about many game designers dumbing down their own rules. Read what I wrote. Check out the Alexandrian Twitter. Low rules players entering the game is an issue, whether you see it or not.

There already exists a great D&D movie, It's not a great movie (far from it), but it hits every required beat for a D&D movie. It brings a party together. It has recognizable classes: 2 barbarians, a fighter, a thief, a magic-user (perhaps even a wu jen), and a patron assigning a magical NPC to...

Are you kidding? We are moving to a world where game designers don't care about whether their own rules work during playtest! This development was reported by the Alexandrian on Twitter. 5e D&D's explicit objective is to make D&D as accessible as possible to as many players as possible. That...

No, it reflects badly on you to forgive people's blatant ignorant racism, what you call the "limitations of ordinary people". It's vile that you forgive this. I expect people to be informed about what they can see with their own eyes. It has noting to do with the Monster Manual. People of...

A built world exists irrespective of the players. The players are free to pursue what interests them, but the world grinds on. If the game is nothing but player wish fulfillment, there is no surprise, suspense, or mystery, the quiescence of boring. The players can assert their preferences by the...

When contemplating--Messiaen: From the Canyons to the Stars When relaxing--Barber: Summer Music When serious--Ruggles: Men and Mountains

No I did not, and no I am not. To not be aware of these issues is to be willfully ignorant. You don't have to be "online" to recognize racism in popular culture. You are entirely too forgiving of racists. That reflects badly on you. Being anti-racist is hard work but it needs to be done, even in...

For lots of cis-white males like me, all sorts of issues are "non-issues". We need to be more attentive to all those who say they ARE issues, and then listen.

I think lots of people would disagree with you, which is why we have the Great Orc Disjunction. I understand your views and sympathize, but they might be in the minority.

My orcs are 1e, and you are exactly right.

This is exactly what simplified ACAs do in 1e, so I agree!

1) Worldbuilding is mostly useful at the campaign level, running a group through many sessions in the same setting. It is less useful otherwise. 2) Worldbuilding is primarily for the GM to create an engaging, consistent setting for their players. Lots of new GM advice says to only prepare what...

Correct about firearms. And yes, the sweet, sweet bastard sword.
