Gygax, as has been mentioned, comes off really, really poorly, even from people who are otherwise vocal supporters of his nowadays, like Rob Kuntz.And this sort of ruins the Gygax-promulgated idea that the Blumes are the villains of this story. Without them, it's entirely likely we wouldn't really know of D&D as anything other than the precursor to whatever RPG came out after from someone with slightly less disastrous business sense. (Speaking of which, I had no idea that Arneson ever put out his own RPG after separating from Gygax.)Still have more episodes to go, but man, I need to take them a few at a time. It's just too grim a lot of the time, hearing everyone careen from misstep to misstep.</blockquote>
