The Discworld RPG gleefully ignores "modifiers to dice, and anything crunchy" in favor of puns
  • I love RPG and love that Kickstarter exists to make new ones. I do hate the amount of time between the idea and hype and getting a copy. I'll wait to get this in a couple of years when it's finished and I can buy it

    Hasbro CEO Says AI Will Become Core Part of Dungeons & Dragons
  • They already have a character tools on both Dndbeyond and roll20. The rest are already in the "This is your life" section of xanathars. Nothing AI needed

    Hasbro CEO Says AI Will Become Core Part of Dungeons & Dragons
  • Only DND and AI combination I want is a massive random table. I want thousands of good human made ideas that I can query for a random selection using tags. This is not what is going to be made.

    Using current AI for DND ideas gives the worse most cliche and generic responses that bore me to tears.

    How Republicans became the party of raunch
  • Because your enemy is whatever you want it to be, and because your values are whatever you want them to be, you alone get to decide when you’ve won. You can declare victory at any time, for any reason. This conveniently fits your insecurity-based need to feel like a winner.

    I feel this so much with the definition of "woke" it means nothing and everything at the same time. Just a general vibe of something they hate. Similar to socialism.

  • Exactly. It depends on the context of the situation.

    I think one of the great things about Pride events and parades now is the celebration of human sexuality by everyone at it. Everyone is looking their best and celebrating that. Whether they are queer or not.

    How Republicans became the party of raunch
  • This is classic sex negativity through the Madonna-Whore Complex where women are either "pure" virgin mothers or dirty whores. This is an old problem that still lingers. I remember my formative years in the Britney Spear, Man show raunchy period. I did enjoy portions of it at the time as a straight young man but even then I felt exploitative and forced. In hindsight it was really messed up for both men and women and especially women,

    The right can't claim any credit for the current more sex and body positive post #metoo world. People should be allowed to be both objectified if they want to be or not if they don't want to be. This is true for everyone and can change day to day. The current climate is showing both a kinder objectification of women when they choose to be as well as objectification of men. As a men is actually refreshing and satisfying to see men treated like objects in media. Its good to see a balance in both sexes. That was never part of the rights agenda where men are only held as success objects.

    We want a future where both men and women can be valued for their mind, body and souls. We want sexy outfits in videogames for men and women (and everything in between). We want men and women CEOs, scientists and leaders who are valued for their mind. This is not the future the right wants and a sexy women isn't the antithesis of this. Sydney Sweeney and Margot Robbie being attractive and great actresses is part of this future. The same way that Chris Pine and Idris Elba can be sex symbols and great actors even in the same film. Ignore the rights stealing of something that had no hand in. Reject sex negativity

  • Not only that I'm sure they are making close to minimum wage. Raise that and families might make enough to not need to have their children need to work

    How has technology made your favorite hobby worse instead of better?
  • I love having physical books for most things. It's just the little things like exact spell wordings around needing to see a target or components. Same with exact languages of class features for edge cases.

    I always use my books for prep and when I'm running my character. When DMing it's nice to have a quick reference

  • I love being able to find all rules online for quick reference, but Pathfinder has always had this for free. I will still get books because it's more fun to read and keep.
