in the late-'90s, a new owner revamped the game, releasing new editions and a mind-boggling 20-sided dice.

Hey Leigh Sales, your research intern sucks at their job.

Or maybe that's your editor. It's hard to be sure.

I cringed at that part. But overall is was a well done piece. Better than I expected.

It was painful to hear D&D described as for geeks and nerds, though, particularly with how they said they were disgusting. I have heard the one DM's hood was painful to see, but it looked good on him and it was light.

I'm not clear, is this a parody article?

No, it looks legit. Its the Australian Broadcasting Corp, so I assume its real.

Some of the terminology seemed a bit "off" IMO, but still, it gives the game some exposre to people who may not otherwise be introduced to D&D. The fact that it was on a local news network adds some "legitimacy" to the report (in the viewer's minds) as well. Nothing wrong with that.

And this is our third thread this week on this video!

Maybe they meant the d20 license and OGL? Because I don't see what's mind boggling about a dodecahedron with numbers on it.
