Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 09/10/2026my favourite 1 line character concept is meteallic dragonborn of chromatic draconic sorcery, basically a dragonborn strugling between the dychotomy of the 2 draconic ancestries, whatever that means for the setting 010

Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 29/09/2026boy do I feel that so hard and it's disheartening. Even my close friends who are very smart people have completely fallen for it 020
Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 28/09/2026would be a banger of a playmat too. I thought of you imediately when I saw it. Good branding 010

Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Yeah I don't mind overreacting in this case. Suits need to be reminded how toxic that pile of garbage is. They need to be constantly reminded of the ogl fiasco in D&D when they think with their wallets and not their brains 020
Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Jace went to make bizarro grist and was like "nevermind, she's got that shit figured out" 000
Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 26/09/2026either that or someone inside trying to prove a point either way ("this is toxic and we shouldn't do it" or, slightly more cynical, "this is fine and the backlash won't be big enough compared to the $") and to be clear @magic.wizards.com hp is a fuck no and imediate boycott for me 0120
Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Jace in the fiction is a good person and constantly struggles with the cruelty of his powers. Which is what makes him an interesting character. That's also not the point op is making, their point is that Jace was a twat in some old flavor texts and the internet assumes that's all he is 070
Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 25/09/2026100% flavor text jace is a redditor. Story Jace is an awesome character with a great arc 050

Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 22/08/2026I feel this so hard. Even if terf in charge just wasn't a problem (it is a huge problem, not diminishing it) the work itself is so bad. It's cultural apropriation and racist stereotypes, and even the power fantasy is so lame, all powerful wizard that can make shit disappear instead of flushing 000
Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 16/08/2026I love this so much. Best of luck and success to you all 010
Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 15/08/2026I think WotC's fault was firing their community manager that did a lot of work to avoid those feel-bad videos like openning CBs before release. I actually think chase cards are good for the game if they indirectly subsidize the boring cards as game pieces 030

Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 08/08/2026I also prefer lower tables than std dinning heigt (30 in. in the US if I'm not mistaken) my desk and gaming tables are 27 in., again for reachability I think my ideal table would be 80x36x27 (L x W x H) enough for 8 player drafts or large commander games, but not impossible to play smaller games 000
Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Anything over 36 in. width will be annoying to reach the middle specially for kids or shorter folks, most boardgames will fit in 36 in. or less, wargames and big rpg setpieces might need more I prefer a table with a thick tabletop and no skirts and rails, but ymmv 100
Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 08/08/2026I don't see the need for the quirks of gaming tables (vaults, desks, electronics, cupholders etc) but I would recommend going with a way sturdier table than you think you need, people bumping and moving pieces gets old quick we use small side tables to keep drinks and snacks away from the play area 110
Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 08/08/2026I think a little more than that. I was born in 91 and just turned thir..... oh crap 011

Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 31/07/2026UB Magic just looks like Magic with some references shoehorned in, while a D&D setting book can really translate what specific IPs are about 000
Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 31/07/2026I'm not even thinking about the opt-in/opt-out nature of each game bc other than competitive magic or playing with strangers you can always curate your experience. I'm thinking as actual gaming interpretations of different IPs D&D is a lot better than Magic if you want to do the thing™️ 100
Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 31/07/2026D&D is also a better game to translate a setting or build a narrative. Magic games have little to no narrative, so the crossovers just feel like a bunch of random references 000
Brands @brands248.bsky.social · 31/07/2026the DDB issue is huge. I already struggle with bloat in my campaigns without any 3rd part content, imagine if my Dark Sun campaing suddenly had a Gungan Demon Hunter. Yikes Hopefuly they figure out a solution similar to what Roll20 does 100
