[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 9823949, member: 2209"] I started off 2025 with significant health issues that had required me in 24 to drop running my three year online weekly 5e Iron Gods campaign and drop out of my regular now multi decade bi-weekly face to face group where I was a player in a 5e game and also to drop an improv group that was doing gaming stuff. I was able to keep up in the online group as a player as my brother started a new fantasy campaign in a homebrew system with our shorter three hour online sessions but there was a couple periods where even that was too much. These health issues mostly resolved in the summer and after a recuperation period I got back into gaming as a PC in both my regular online and face to face groups with the face to face one starting a modern X-Files type game using the Cypher System. Possible upcoming work promotion would make significant impacts on my time so I have been hesitant to get back into DMing right now. The improv group might do some one off things next year which might work out for me to join again. Once I got back into gaming I was pretty frustrated at the regular cancellations of our regular games, a bit more than in the past. I continued to get stuff throughout the year, mostly PDFs of either old stuff on sale or in bundles (old edition D&D, World of Darkness, Call of Cthulhu, Shadowrun) or more recent 5e and OSR and assorted weirdness like Forged in the Dark stuff. As a celebration after my health issues resolved I bought myself a physical 2024 5e MM. I also continued to read gaming sourcebooks usually finishing off reading something cover to cover every month, like the physical 2024 5e PH I had gotten last year or a PDF of the 2e Planeswalker's Handbook.
