But it's not 80 as compared to 90. It's 80 as compared to 30. Each month, the money I would spend on things like APs is about $40. I didn't back any Kickstarters or buy any games this month, so what I did was to go see K-Pop Demon Hunter with my daughter and then have drinks with her at a...

For me, it doesn't cost less. For someone who is highly irresponsible, I have my finances pretty squared away. After everything is done, I have 30-40 dollars per month that I can spend on stupid stuff. And by that I mean I don't care or plan it ... it could be a big foam cheese head for all I...

And I don't know how to tell you this, but I've been on Enworld the whole time, and participated in those discussions. And I said the same thing: leave this to the fans and avoid this issue. I don't know what WotC is going to do with the final product (or if there will even be one) but WotC has...

This is a pretty good example of what I was talking about. I think it's way too early in the process to be this mad. And it's a great example of how the actual content is likely to be a lose-lose proposition for WotC. I hope I'm wrong and they present it in a similar manner to the original...

I think this is a very good point. There are a lot of adventures published by smaller publishers that have really thought about how to make an adventure that's easier to run for the GM. I'm running Abomination Vaults and there are tons of resources out there for keeping track of different NPCs...

If this is where we are and we are only at the point of testing classes, wow is this going to be a controversial release. If everyone who doesn't like updating the world for Modern Audiences is in this camp, I'm going to take a long pass on the book, and on discussions of it too.

Knights of Last Call just started a series of short videos about DaggerHeart. Originally, Derrik did this as one loooooong video, but he's splitting them up, along with doing some editing. I think this first video, on what DaggerHeart is not, is really interesting for people who are considering...

That's the issue, really. You have a more modest price, monthly, and a new model where each book is more expensive but they're larger and less frequent. The question is, will people adapt to the new price point? It's a question, because a lot of people will take more frequent, yet individually...

The last time we had this discussion, I thought it might be better to just release this into products that could be in the DM's Guild. I say that because I don't think WotC will really do the world justice. And then when fans of classic Dark Sun complain, it will be their fault. I would say it's...

Just going to play this year. I plan to get back on the horse to run something next year. I have a bunch of friends who are going there who are running events, though. I've play-tested them and they're going to be AMAZING. I will think about running Talisman, though. I was planning Fabula...

Fireball discussions always make me laugh. In a campaign I'm playing in that's 15th level, I have a bladesinger Wizard. I didn't have fireball until the party chipped in and bought me a scroll because it "wasn't right." I've never cast it. Now in the game I'm currently playing, we just hit 11th...

I picked it up two years ago at Gamehole Con. I have a friend who I go with and we always get a game to run a one-shot of during the next year. I genuinely liked the system and we had fun with it. I think the issue was that there wasn't enough: lore, character options and all that. But it had...

I'll say it was a big letdown on the GM's part. Whatever the scenario was about, that's what you are investigating, and then you get to use your cool power to roll a D20 and hold it. I've played in a bunch of PF Society games and that's pretty much how the GMs run it. Now other issues? Maybe...

I think this is the key. There are a lot of folks who don't like clickbait, and attack it whenever they can. But do any of them have successful YouTube channels to the point where that's their career? No. They don't. I don't like clickbait content, and in fact have no time for it at all. But if...

I had a friend who tried really hard to buy the rights a long time ago and he could not even get the author to reply.

Nexus the Infinite City.

This is a fantastic looking game. I backed the PDF only, and I'm sort of regretting that because I think the game would be gorgeous in print. You can take a look at the "learn to play" comic book that's available for free (it's available at DriveThru RPG) and you'll see what it looks like. Now...

As I’m reading this thread, one thought that came to mind is to make sure you’re ready to narrate and transition between scenes. If the party is sticking to something and isn’t moving along, you’re well within your authority to move them. I find it especially important to do this when you have...

I have run a lot of sessions at Cons and played dozens (actually hundreds, ugh, old person...) more and I've never seen it. I've seen it discussed a lot online. After Covid, I was going to get back to running some Con games and I thought about it, because I have heard it discussed a lot. I...

It is one of the games I'm pitching to my online group. We did a mini-campaign of Daggerheart with the playtest and decided it wasn't for that group, but perhaps Draw Steel may be. Why are we doing it? Our main campaign is 5E and the group really isn't feeling it, and hasn't for a long time...
