    I could never spend another penny and I'd still not be able to use all the content I already own.

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    I enjoy dirty jokes as much as anyone, but the amount of butt-sex oriented content in this series is insane.

    Hogwarts Legacy

    I'm ecstatic that this game is selling very well (fuck the woke mob) and that it seems to be pretty well made. However I have no intentions on buying/playing it myself. I've been a D&D nerd since grade school in the 80s, but when Harry Potter came onto the scene I'd already been steeped in far...

    The Last of Us

    You're right, there is something going on. The woke religion is destroying culture and many of those with power and influence in media are more than happy to lose money to further the 'message.' In fact, the "lost" money is often viewed as an investment in warping culture to craft a worldview...

    The Last of Us

    It has absolutely nothing to do with how "attractive" she is. Her massive forehead is just another element to make her already-unlikable character more off-putting.

    Marvel's Midnight Suns

    A mind-bogglingly idiotic statement for numerous reasons.

    Excellent business acumen. Piss off 65% of your base. I'm sure the percentage of white men that play the game is more than that, but a portion of those 'men' are limp-wristed, woke faggots that bob their heads and bark like seals in agreement with that WoTC cuck. That interview was done on the...

    Those bundles are doubly good if you use Fantasy Grounds/Roll 20 because you get a huge discount on the Fantasy Ground module that is roughly equal to 70-90% of the retail price of the PDF. Outside of steals on Humble Bundle, the best way to do it (if you prefer physical books) is to subscribe...

    The Last of Us

    As much as I despise the 'message,' I ended up loving this episode. I had absolutely no idea that the gay relationship was brewing. In fact, while Bill was playing the piano I kept waiting for the 'stranger' to club him in the head from off-screen after Bill had showed the man so much...

    Ashes of Creation

    I think my "EQ-like" statement is being misunderstood. It doesn't look like EQ, but the way the group is having to carefully navigate the heavily populated, quickly respawning area, behind a genuine tank, did. Certainly, that kind of gameplay isn't unique to EQ, but that's the vibe I got when...

    Ashes of Creation

    That looks really good. It has a very EQ-like feel.

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    I'm ashamed that I haven't completed this yet given the fact that the only games that truly keep my interest anymore is this type (Iso-RPGs). I'm about to hit Act 4 and my 3 'Rogues' (my character, Greybor, and Woljif) are a fucking blender. The others are basically just buff bots for my hit...

    The D&D thread

    I think it's hilarious that so many of the woke cult are taking issue with Hasbros morality clause with D&Ds OGL. They were 100% in support of it when it was used to crush anyone that wasn't preaching the 'message,' but now they're completely against it because they could be the next target...

    Dungeons & Dragons (2022)

    I couldn't disagree more with liking another satirical/whimsical D&D movie. EVERY previous D&D-based movie has been like this and all of them have been absolutely terrible. I want a D&D movie with the same type of tone that the LotR trilogy had. Certainly, LotR had some moments of levity, but...

    Underrated/Overrated Video Games

    Skyrim never appealed to me either. I've tried on numerous occasions to play it, but I never get past 3 or 4 hours in. I even included a huge suite of the most popular mods and the game looked good, but the core of it just couldn't grab me. I can't put my finger on it, but the game just feels...

    Marvel's Midnight Suns

    I'm still very interested in this game, but I've decided to wait until the Season Pass is completely fleshed out and the game matures for a year+. Hopefully, the dev team will include a few quality-of-life patches.

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    Vex is definitely not straight. In fact, her official CR Wiki has her listed as Bi and Keyleth is "Demisexual." The show is absolutely drenched in LGBTQ-LMNOP

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    I watched the first three episodes last night and rolled my eyes a few times. It's a decent show and worth watching, but the 'message' is still present even if a bit more subtle. There's a mercenary group with a 'badass' in a tricked out combat-wheelchair. I don't think he said a word and was...

    Solasta: Crown of the Magister

    All the more reason for its developers to give WotC a giant middle-finger and refuse to sign it.

    Black Desert

    I'm honestly not sure what started it, but I began playing PC games in the 80s and I remember that a lot of games in that period defaulted to the arrow keys. It's been years since I've played BD and I don't remember my setup, but I played a Wizard, exclusively. I remember that I had to do a...

    Black Desert

    I'm even worse. I use the direction keys for movement and surrounding keys (Numpad, DEL, END, etc.) for abilities. That muscle-memory is so ingrained that I literally cannot play a game that won't allow me to re-bind keys to the right side of the keyboard. Monster Hunter is one of the games...

    The D&D thread

    I completely agree with the premise that any time a character/party engages in combat it should be dangerous. There are a lot of reasons for that, but one of the factors is that 5e takes the "resource drain" approach by throwing numerous mildly challenging encounters at the players before...

    The D&D thread

    It sounds like you guys had a ton of fun and I envy you in some respect because I don't really enjoy the 'less-serious' type of D&D games and I wish I was able to. My preferred style of play is very reminiscent of Dragonlance: War of the Lance or the quest to destroy the One Ring where the...

    The D&D thread

    Charts like that can add a lot of spice to a game, but I've personally never been a fan of critical failures. Especially the blooperish ones where it's like "oops, natural 1, you cut off your own face with an errant axe swing" queue the Benny Hill song. Just starting out at level 1, adventurers...

    I've taken a break from rage today and announced this change for my players for our next campaign (after the current one comes to its conclusion in the Summer). I've made a significant number of adjustments to 5e and many of which are designed to make the game more difficult while also...

    The D&D thread

    I knew without a shred of doubt that WotC was going to pull the "hate and discrimination" card as part of the justification for the new OGL, but it's nothing more than an empty excuse that the woke sycophants will see as misdirected good intentions. Anything that doesn't support the 'message' is...

    I don't have a fundamental issue with WotC trying to create more revenue streams from one of their flagship products either but, as you pointed out, it's the way they're going about it and one of the most insidious ways they're fucking 3PP is by wanting to claim ownership of anything that is...

    I commend Paizo for doing something, but I'm going to have to hold my nose and close my eyes to get in bed with them because they're more woke than WotC is. In PF2e, they went full-retard with pronouns, were first to abandon the 'sin' of "race," banned the words Golem and Phylactery for...

    The D&D thread

    Several major players in the TTRPG space have vouched for the credibility of that statement. I, and many others, absolutely despise the growing number of blue-haired, limp-wristed, woke activists that are infecting RPGs, but at least their weaponized autism can be directed at WotC.

    No, and they won't until there is an official statement from WotC. Despite the fact that we know the leak is legitimate, it's still a leak and Paizo isn't going to publicly involve themselves with rumors.

    The D&D thread

    I'd wager the CR cast is opposed to it, but I have absolutely no doubt that they would get their own sweetheart agreement with WotC where they'd pay very little, if anything, in royalties because they have a lot of influence with the new generation of players. I think WotC has at least enough...

    The D&D thread

    I posted a bit of this in the Solasta thread, but it's more relevant here: With the huge amount of backlash that this is receiving I have a hard time believing that it will stand. Following through with the revocation of the OGL would go down in the Hall of Shame as one of the dumbest business...

    Solasta: Crown of the Magister

    While Solasta may have played a part in a small way, I genuinely believe that the dollar-chasing Hasbro (WotC) is pursuing with the changes to the OGL is primarily driven by their belief that the future of D&D is going to continually gravitate to most games being played online. That may be true...

    Black Desert

    I doubt I'll ever play again because I hate the gear system so much that it makes it impossible for me to enjoy the game. Unlike some of the others, I'm incapable of being 'satisfied' with 90%. If it's possible, I'm going to chase it and in BDO it's as close to masochistic as you can get...

    Everquest Confessions

    That story touched me a lot more than I expected it to. It might be that I empathize with how amazing EQ was. I won one of the rogue BotB's, but I don't have access to a single screenshot from my years of playing. I still have my account, but I've long forgotten my password. I wonder if I could...

    Black Desert

    This thread is a siren song that keeps trying to seduce me into playing again. I know how it'll turn out in the end, but there's definitely an element of the game that is incredibly alluring. I never played anything but Wizard seriously. Is the class still good?
