"Moral" dilemma ( ttrpg.network )

To be fair to Barbarian, the guy was a werewolf and Barbarian is racist against werewolves.

Four systems and yet the videos are so similiar ( ttrpg.network )

Look who's suddenly happy to be in a company with the pretty boy ( ttrpg.network )

And then WotC followed that example ( ttrpg.network )

Despite Margareth Weiss and Tracy Hickman's statement that Krynn has no Lycathropes, Orcs or Drow, TSR would publish a werewolf adventure placed near Daggard Keep in First Edition supplement World of Krynn. I lowkey suspect the Krynnish part of Vecna: Eve of Ruin was a reference to that.

Art in Vecna: Eve of Ruin features some interesting choices ( ttrpg.network )

It's weird this happenned twice ( ttrpg.network )

Lessons Learned:...

5e has an advantage of not requiring doctorate in quantum physics to run ( ttrpg.network )

I would usually be sad to see another original RPG go 5e compatible but Neuroshima was infamously poorly designed ruleset, possibly worse than Shadowrun. I probably won't be running it, but may steal statblocks for my 5e game if I need weird stuff again.

You make the line go up or get fired ( ttrpg.network )

Downtime fun in Blades in the Dark ( ttrpg.network )

Caverns of Tracia, Dark Tower, Dungeon of the Mad Mage, Expedition to Castle Greyhawk, Halls of Adren Vul, oh my ( ttrpg.network )

There are no lows Dark Powers won't sink to ( ttrpg.network )

God forbid we try to make the game anything but a cakewalk ( ttrpg.network )

We have entered the time of Reverse Mercer Effect ( ttrpg.network )

Another thing I noticed is getting more common among RPG Horror Stories. When once it was common to see entitled players complaining the GM is not running the game like Matt Mercer runs on Critical Role, I have lately seen quite few stories where problem GM tries to use that to deflect criticism. It's usually the type to be...

Quests from the Infinite Staircase will cause such a shitstorm ( ttrpg.network )

B4: The Lost City is a classic module for D&D. At one point it (in)famously stops giving full description of the rooms but instead lists monsters in each area and tells the DM to figure out why they're here themselves. Once the reprint will show up in new anthology, I'm sure people who complain online whenever WotC uses "ruling...

I lowkey hope these stories are fake or it's all the same guy ( ttrpg.network )

I noticed increased frequency of posts in places like r/rpghorrorstories, that describe a situation where the player brings a tiny veiled or just a shameless copy of a popular fictional character - Sokka, Scanlan, John Snow, Walter White - except "more based" or "less of a cuck". What follows is a story of the player doing some...

Not counting character creation or session zero of course, first actual gameplay session ( ttrpg.network )

I wouldn't be bringing this back if someone didn't tell me Blades in the Dark "doesn't count" [read description] ( ttrpg.network )

I get used to people telling me to try another game, but if I do and you tell me it doesn't count for some stupid reason and basically saying what you meant was "Pathfinder or old editions of d&d"? Yeah I'm fucking mad....
