I think that's the only reason it was as much of a story as it was. If the headlines were like you described no one would bat an eye at it. Instead we just get an abrupt "Cynthia is stepping down. No further news" which leads for all of us to try and fill in the blanks. I think more than one...

Like I said. I was surprised. I have five players at my table and have zero desire to add another. I couldn't imagine having seven, and on game day going "You know what.. I should see if I can pick up one more." Where it kind of made sense though, was in the fact that six of the seven players...

I like this idea. My party is only level 3, but I am fearing the eventual leap to tier 3 play. I've never experienced it in 5e on either side of the screen but in all of my years of playing 3.5e I felt like the game went downhill after level 10. I could perhaps see myself implementing a level...

I can sympathize with those with ADHD, and I can sympathize with down time in games. I understand that I'm probably an outlier. I've been really hungry to play so I was eager to join in and get going. And being dropped in as an outsider, I also enjoyed trying to keep track of what was happening...

This weekend I jumped at the chance to play some D&D. I'm part of a LFG type Facebook group and someone posted that they had some players drop out, and were looking to fill spots. I said YOLO and shot him a DM. We got to talking and decided we'd be a good fit and he told me to make a level 7...

Yeah, they really struck gold right out of the gate and then just set the bar way too high for any follow ups. I do think Griffin is the best DM out of all of them, so any season they pitch where someone else is running the show sets my expectations very low. It's a shame too, because I think...

Yeah, admittedly I wasn't thinking of streaming services when I posted that.. I recently re-subscribed to EverQuest 2 to play on the new progression server, and they offered the 3, 6 and 12 month options. I also started a blog and WordPress does the same for their premium features.

Loved Balance. It took me a while to warm up to it, but I ended up loving Amnesty as well.. I loved the premise of, and was really excited for both Graduation, and Steeple Chase, and ended up souring on both of them. I had to force myself to finish them. I was already so close to the finish line...

I wonder if this is something every actual play series will struggle with? I don't follow Critical Role, but I've noticed other D&D podcasts I've listened to always seem to draw the ire of the fan base the further they get from their breakout season. Name The Adventure Zone, and Dungeons and...

It seems the current strategy is to try and offer incentives to buy longer term plans. A lot of places are offering discount 3, 6, and 12 month subs where you pay upfront and it ends up cheaper than the per-month price. They're using carrots right now.. Eventually they'll switch to the stick...

Yeah this is the way to do it. I recently dropped Amazon Prime in favor of HBO. I do the same with Patreon. Sub to one for a month or a few months, check out the back log of content and then cancel it in favor of another one. I sometimes fear that losing memberships has some sort of algorithm...

Well I'll be darned.

You know.. I bet Funko would do well in the mini-space. Could you imagine a grid covered little goblin minis with giant heads and souless black eyes?
