    XKCD: What if ALL the sun’s power was focused in one place?

    It is well established, in both Canon and Legends, that Star Wars physics is not like our physics

    General video game discussion

    In fairness to what I know of the MoM fandom, opinion on the remake is as low as your chances of retaking a rebellious town housing a full stack of high-leveled halfling slingers. Speaking from personal experience, of course

    Not yet, but trouble just walked into the room, with legs for days and a song or two for you

    General video game discussion

    Picked up a bunch of classic Squeenix titles on my Switch because they're all on sale, including Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D, Romancing SaGa 2 Revenge of the Seven, and The Last Remnant Remastered. So of course as soon as I do I come down sick as a dog and can barely think so I just fall back on my...

    3I/ATLAS

    As a layperson with a YouTube history littered with videos re: the Fermi Paradox, the Dark Forest, Great Filters, etc. my base level of understanding is that finding evidence of life elsewhere in the universe would almost certainly be bad news for us

    D&D General Why Elon Musk Needs Dungeons & Dragons to Be Racist

    Also, quite clearly, a feature article about the biggest game in our hobby in one of the most mainstream sources of news and cultural commentary is self-evidently relevant to this forum. It is far more trouble to complain about the existence of a thread than it is to ignore it altogether

    D&D General Why Elon Musk Needs Dungeons & Dragons to Be Racist

    I think you've greatly misunderstood this article, which is absolutely arguing in defense of D&D (and tabletop gaming and fantasy as a genre, writ large), its massive and widespread appeal to such a broad and diverse population of fans that (a) past attempts to gatekeep the game/genre from...

    D&D 5E (2024) Just Because a location is not on the Atlas of Faerun doesn't mean its gone.

    Wizards of the Coast Re-Registers Dark Sun With USPTO

    Sounds exhausting. And thoroughly unappealing. I am once again forced to find myself asking how in the Nine Hells anyone would walk away from BG3 while giving it the label "gritty".

    Wizards of the Coast Re-Registers Dark Sun With USPTO

    I will say that I am cautiously optimistic to see where they end up going with this. Dark Sun is a setting with a lot of really great potential that is often lost in the sword-and-sandal grimy aesthetics of it all. Oddly enough, the post-Gold Box Dark Sun PC game Shattered Sun probably presented...

    My kid is obsessed with the books and absolutely loved the show, can't wait to show them the trailer for this.
