    Let's Talk About Supers RPGs (Especially Ones Good For Cons)

    I GM'd and used modified canned statblocks (and I did not worry about points when modding those statblocks) so 3E works just as well for me. It was my players that complained.

    WotC D&D Beyond Reveals 'Partnered Content' Schedule

    Sure. I was just saying that folks talking about incompatibility die to (as an example) how 5E 2024 does subclasses feels like things going wonky with the 3.5 switch. I doubt it will have nearly the same impact though, mostly because I don't think people are that concerned.

    Who Should Make The Next Star Wars TTRPG, And What Should It Look Like?

    SWADE is great Star Wars. But you can do it out of the box.

    Who Should Make The Next Star Wars TTRPG, And What Should It Look Like?

    Star Wars may be the best licensed TTRPG setting there is (IMHO, of course). It has so much built into it that makes for great roleplaying adventure. Obviously, we have seen a number of different Star Wars RPGs over the years, and everyone has their favorite. But if you were the one to decide...

    Secret Wars Expansion for Marvel Multiverse RPG Deets Revealed

    For what it is worth, the Star Trek/X-Men crossover was pretty good, so I would totally perk my ears up for a Star Wars/Marvel crossover.

    Let's Talk About Supers RPGs (Especially Ones Good For Cons)

    I don't know what to tell you. We played A LOT of both and 2E was less versatile in character creation.

    Let's Talk About Supers RPGs (Especially Ones Good For Cons)

    I don't have my books in front of me, but what games like Champions and M&M 2E did was make Powers as broad as possible and then pile on modifiers so you could actively build any power you wanted. 3E reduced the number and complexity of modifiers for ease of use, which has its value, but in...

    Let's Talk About Supers RPGs (Especially Ones Good For Cons)

    I LOVE Brave New World in that 90s way. My favorite thing about it was it was the first game I remember where you chose to do cool stuff (stunts? tricks?) AFTER you rolled, rather than the old school punitive mechanics for trying cool stuff. It is pretty dated now and I always have hoped there...

    General video game discussion

    I did not want to start a whole thread for this weird question, so... Are there any folks on YouTube who make video game playthroughs as highly edited "movies" or "shows"? Like, if I want to watch someone play Skyrim but it is a STORY, not just a let's play, does that exist?

    Help Me Pick A Convention Game To Run

    I ultimately decided on the following (blurb first draft): Being a Crook in Bastion City is hard, between the Capes looking to get the cuffs on you and the Kingpins looking to get their hooks in you. But there are banks to rob and art to steal, and you have your trusty super-tech to make it...
