I mean, he did, but it was France in the 90s so with a cigarette hanging out of his mouth.

They have specialized horse meat butcher shops in Germany too. That being said, the only place I've ever eaten horse was on the side of a road from a shady looking stand in France. 10/10 would recommend.

I want to go back to gaming in shame in basements. We've gone too far. Go back.

I think that new version of 2300 AD was DOA from jump wasn't it? I remember they were charging like $100 for the box set and you needed to own the Mong Traveller rulebook too. I can't imagine that things been lighting up the sales charts.

LOL. We are smart and cool.

I'm calling it now DC20, MCDM and Black Flag are just Senzar for people in their 20s now. No, I'm not wrong.

Man, this was my first console as a kid and I remember digging it because it was compatible with 2600 games. Of which, I inherited a big box from my older cousins. But yeah, 7800 games at $30 is a tough sell.

I imagine the pitch is "Shadowrun" but with not terrible rules, but that's been the pitch for a bunch of games that have appeared and disappeared just as quickly. I really wish that wasn't the case, but alas.

Cool. If you go in eyes open, it's your call. Caveat emptor applies to all transactions, this is no different. I'm not really going to engage more than that because, apparently, discussing the business practices of a business launching a new business venture at an event where they describe how...

I'm sorry, what? If there hadn't been massive pushback they would have let the status quo remain where everybody would have to spend god knows how long making all the spells, items etc homebrew one by one if they wanted to keep playing 2014. This would have been a real pain and obviously...

It's the same reason why movie studios weren't allowed to own movie theaters for decades or why cable companies weren't allowed to own content creating entities. That isn't the case anymore, and in both cases, it's safe to say it hasn't exactly been all roses.

Well, that's an indictment of Valve if I've ever heard one. YOU HEAR THAT, GABE HALF LIFE 3 WHEN

It's not about jealousy or anything of the sort. What do you think the chances of you still "owning" these ten years down the line? "New edition new mini dimensions, they will not carry over" Or "Sigil 2 is built on a new engine that is not compatible with the previous engine you'll have to...

If wanting to own miniatures in perpetuity makes me a communist then I guess I am, tovarich.
