@NotJonMollison Welp, I'm in

@InquisitorJim @micpewpew I think in magazines and such at the time, it was more of a setting thing (in addition to a balance thing). I think it was known that there are equivalents of dwarven druids, but they would be in the dwarf lands near home. The dwarfs that adventure are basically just fighters.

@movieguyjon I'll be giving up on all my haters

@micpewpew Gotta finish up Amber. Can't read 3 books then jump

[Eric D. Kline @eatcomics]

@oggm_adventures Cyclops! No... wait...

[Eric D. Kline @eatcomics]

@movieguyjon I do love that show, and your assessment is exactly why. It's a cop drama, but without it being full drama.

[Eric D. Kline @eatcomics]

@movieguyjon You aren't alone my friend. It's hard for people who aren't braunstein enjoyers or wargamers to grasp.

[Eric D. Kline @eatcomics]

@micpewpew I would not do anything to impede my fellow adventurers, because surely there's enough treasure for us all :^)

@AeresChronicles I was fascinated with it. I enjoyed it I think. Went back multiple times. Never beat it, that's for sure

It's hard to describe how impressive Frontier: Elite II was when it was released in 1993. David Braben's masterpiece sequel of Elite (1984) seemingly took forever to be developed, but the result was mindblowing. Trading, combat, exploring - all part of the original Elite concept - but now on a truly galactic scale. If you ever wanted to know what it means to feel small in a game, Elite II showed you exactly that.

Often, I would just hop from one planet to another for the sheer joy of flying through space. Literally millions (!) of planets; just like the universe, Elite II seemed to have no end, no frontier. I know when you look at the graphics today, they look very basic, but in 1993 this was stunning. Sometimes it felt more like art than just a game. I was never good at it, never reached Elite status, but it didn't keep me from getting totally lost in space and time.

@movieguyjon I was just noticing the same thing! 2 days ago, bunch of relevant content. Today, just a bunch of random shit

A quick post I did for some of my new players. I thought to share it with the class. Link in post below.

@NotJonMollison @BrianRenninger6 I've needed a reason to try out boot hill. Maybe I'll follow along with you! Had the book gathering dust on the shelf for a year

[Eric D. Kline @eatcomics]

@SandyofCthulhu Thanks for the recommendation. I agree with Travis, the OG covers were so much better than the amazon ebook art.

[Eric D. Kline @eatcomics]

@Hollyfelled Alright you two pixies, out the door or through the window!

[Jonathan Hardesty @movieguyjon]

This year I broke out of the confines of my 5e play to engage in some jolly PVP in AD&D. It was life changing. You should join @jpmccarthyjr @eatcomics myself and others this evening as we jaw with the @DunderMoose about the epic @micpewpew session! YT in reply.

I ported my game engine to the #Wii with a render distance of 17 chunks, now surpassing the render distance of Minecraft on the PS4 and Xbox One.
