RocknRollaAyatollah posted:I'm pretty sure that Ed Greenwood and R.A. Salvatore are the only people who actually make a consistent living off of D&D and will continue to do so in the future. Those guys are going to be getting work or a check in the mail until the day they die. Just think about that. Not that they're bad people but they've done better than the people who created the game. Drizzt is the best thing to come out of D&D setting in terms of an iconic, recognizable character for people people outside the hobby and WOTC will never use him for anything big because nerds are still sore about Drow being playable and would pitch a fit.

Drizzt is cool because you can kill him for his extremely sick equipment in Baldur's Gate.

The next D&D video game will be a nostalgic return to its roots with classic and oft-forgotten D&D setting, Birthright. My uncle works at Paradox.

The newest DriveThruRPG newsletter stated that not only are all of the TORG books available to purchase from the site now, but that they're writing more. There's gonna be new TORG in 2015. God help us all.

So as it turns out, I've been confusing the Giff (D&D's race of gun-wielding, space-faring, militaristic humanoid hippos) with the Umpani (Wizardry's race of gun-wielding, space-faring, militaristic humanoid rhinos).

This is the same company whose original races includes the spacefaring mook So the idea that they might be inspired by other franchises isn't anything new- I just forgot that the Umpani were rhinos until I recently checked.

People literally hate Elminster so much that both Elminster options are last. The terrorists didn't win. e; Kai Tave posted:Y'know Ettin, this is an awful lot of work just to get out of the toxx from your Eclipse Phase game. I'd have spotted you the ten bucks, man.

NachtSieger posted:P.S: Does any GM here have advice for getting out of a GMing lack of inspiration/lack of motivation slump? Go to a pub, bring a notebook and some pencils. Get a beer or something, sit down. If you can, light a smoke. Give yourself half an hour or so to write anything that comes to your mind. Then make sense of your ideas and put them together. This is p much what I do before every session I run.

You could always get stuff from books written for the explicit purpose of having stuff. I've run some much stuff off the top of my head lately - Dungeon World and so on - that I forgot how comforting it is to have a really good scenario as a safety net. I ran Jailbreak for Unknown Armies in under 3 hours with seven players today, killed three of them, and a good time was had by all. Please post hot modules and the best adventure books you got.

Dammit, I just want a new edition of Torg with decent mechanics, why can't we have that?
