    Looking for a properly bleak game for a paper.

    Looking for a properly bleak game for a paper.

    Call of Cthulhu is pretty bleak, you character is likely to die or go insane, and the ancient Gods can and do wipe people or entire cities out when the players can't delay them.

    For those who don't play D&D (or its clones), what keeps you engaged with EN World?

    You're nice people on the whole, you get interesting discussions that are beyond D&D, and general RPG news as well.

    D&D 5E (2014) Dark Sun, problematic content, and 5E…

    Problematic content is acceptable even if it isn't obviously and explicitly evil and/or meant to be fought. It just needs to be handled with a little more care, and isn't for every game table. Even then what is problematic is a sliding scale, what is problematic for some tables won't be for...

    D&D General What makes a TTRPG a "D&D Variant" to you?

    I agree I would go as far to say to some degree setting doesn't even need to be fantasy. There were a load of d20 variant games like Judge Dredd, and a Call of Cthulhu that I was put off by the level/class structure.

    What do you, personally, need a system to do for you?

    You would need to roll d% on the "flightless air shark table" applying the appropriate modifiers for starting altitude and surface being flown over to determine the result. Don't roll high.

    Most influential RPG

    I think Dread was influential, not in the fact you saw everyone playing with Jenga towers, but you did see more non-traditional resolution mechanics after it.

    How Will The New Tariffs Affect TTRPG Prices?

    Steve Jackson Games have blogged about the tariff situation, I've quoted it here as traffic seems a little heavy on their site since it got mentioned on Reddit. https://www.sjgames.com/ill/archive/2025-04-03

    How Will The New Tariffs Affect TTRPG Prices?

    I wonder what will happen with places like Chaosium that have both US, EU and UK warehouses, will they put the price up for everyone or will there be a noticeable price difference between the US and other shops. Put it this way if they try and spread the cost across to UK customers I won't be...
