But we shall not grieve, because he is now one with the Matrix.

"Prime, you can't die."
Optimum Prime is my most beloved fictional character of all time.
Thank you, sir.

@osgamer74 @Wizards DS videos. Not DD.

[The Lore Lounge @ThomasRusson]

@osgamer74 @Wizards I'm going to good out until we can get more clarity. I'm placing a series of DD videos for youtube - I'm not here to judge what or how people play. All I do is give them the world and hope for the best.

@Piss58502019 @OriginalGrogna1 Pathfinder 1e. There were really nice rules for playing monsters near the back of the book, which I used and advanced the character with class levels.

@MissPookems I have zero desire to play games with other people unless I'm in the same room with them, on a split screen. Just none.
Civilization is a RARE exception.

@Marcela252016 It has Zip, and the other games. Great fun.
Beside that - worthless.

[The Lore Lounge @ThomasRusson]

@Nerdcognito Yep, my initial reaction was the most optimistic thing ever. Then last night, before I saw this, I did a reel just knowing they were going to screw it up.

@vintaddicted It's insulting, lowest common-denominator, bullshit pandering to an audience that is so fickle it'll vanish like a sandcastle. No different to trigger warnings, DM expectation sheets and reducing race or species to less than culture.
So disappointing.

@TArchcast I made a short a bit over a week ago when I learned of the rerelease. At the time, I was just fully caught up in it. Then last night, I did another - said that they wouldn't have the stones to do a proper adaptation.
I hate being right.

@DeathKi76976489 @TArchcast Oh god.

@memeslich Their ever increasing suffering should be a hint.
Unless you're running it for kids.

@ChubbyFunsterGC B-b-b-but you're getting a decapitation mechanic! Clap please!

[The Lore Lounge @ThomasRusson]

@ChubbyFunsterGC I did a short last night, just knowing that they were going to wimp out of it... a week after one excitedly talking about looking forward to Dark Sun being back.

[The Lore Lounge @ThomasRusson]

Fears realised.
Sensitivity readers....

@SandyofCthulhu Bloody hell, Sandy Peteren. I love your work - thank you. They absolute see it backwards - there are also and additional 6.3 billion humans in the world now. It's a very different calculus on the whole approach, especially if you can email a high-res scan of an ancient text...

@OriginalGrogna1 Shadowrun either 20th anniversary or a slightly rejigged 5th.

I've been playing around with different thumbnails - for fairly pedestrian and dull YouTube things that actually make a massive difference.
Below is one of my favourite images from #crusaderkings and highly relevant to episode 15 of A Traveller's Guide to The Forgotten Realms.
