At my local game store of choice (The Yellow King Games & Hobbies), the owner stocks a wide selection of new games from many different publishers and genres (everything from OSE and DCC to Altered Carbon and Blade Runner), as well as a number of used RPGs from yesteryear (he buys large...

I've heard former TSR employees say that Williams was less problematic than the Blumes with regard to management, so there's that.

I did as a child. I had a ton of He-Man stuff. Including a Castle Greyskull. I think I sold it all at a garage sale when my parents were trying to teach me about commerce. In retrospect, they were teaching the wrong lessons.

Updated errata documents. A lot of publishers don't provide any errata documents, despite their products being riddled with errors, instead leaving such things up to dedicated fans.

City of Clocks by Battlefield Press might be of use. It's a systemless setting book, so you can use it with 5e or any other edition of D&D you choose.

The 2000 D&D movie was trash. Marlon Wayans carried the whole thing as a comic relief character. And that's really all that you need to know.

The last Black Aegis campaign started off with the plane the PCs were in being sabotaged when they were flying over the jungle. I used a stopwatch to time how long they had to grab accessories before they had to jump. And then rolled to see how many of the parachutes had been sabotaged. There...

Ah. I knew he'd been convicted of murder, but last I knew he hadn't been convicted of arson (I'll admit that I'm not up to date on the legal woes of racist scumbags). I'll edit my post to reflect that.

The murderer, church arsonist, and out and proud racist, yes. Peterson follows him on Twitter via his MYFAROG RPG account (or did, last I checked).

Both of those games have new-ish editions. The most recent printing of Vampire (5e) came out in 2021 and a new edition of Ars Magica was Kickstarted last year.

That's probably his least problematic association. He's thrown his lot in with PragerU and Varg Vikernes on Twitter. "A man is known by the company he keeps." and all that.

Sandy has said some extraordinarily problematic stuff online in recent years and, of course, there's the GoH at VengerCon gig (Venger is also... not a good person). Is Sandy redeemable? Maybe, but he honestly doesn't seem too interested in being redeemed (i.e. he seems more interested in...

I've had great fun with my own Nazi-Killing Bear Simulator (currently OOP), as well as Call of Cthulhu, Night's Dark Agents, and Cthulhu Deep Green. Of those, NKBS is the furthest removed from D&D. You play as Spetsnaz soldiers whose brains have been uploaded via super science into Russian...
