Amazing. It does strike me as the kind of pub that would be anti-NF

I never really knew where the Otley Run ends, but it was academic because, as observed, no one made it past the Fenton.

[pours one out for the fallen] Wait, so you didn't recognise The Feast (now The Library, according to Google Maps) as a legit stop? It's just before the Packhorse... Or are you slightly older than me because the Feast opened in 1994? maps.app.goo.gl/1RkgT4X5a3sh...

Rural buses are one of the reasons I could never move back to the village I grew up in. The other is that all the ex-council houses now cost £400k minimum

I am convinced that the ship departed from Leeds from The Dark Arches via the Leeds Liverpool canal and got lost somewhere in the Penines.

TBF every Otley Run I ever did disintegrated well before The Fenton. Most were lucky to make it as far as the Feast and Ferkin (this may date me horrendously)

If you ever wanted to hear Leonard Cohen front Led Zeppelin, then may I recommend Tom Morello's new solo album Everyone Gets Everything They Want IMHO the best songs are the ones he doesn't sing on. I think he needs that collaboration

The problem is, you can't really say "we condemn this thing" and then only explain in the small print that you are using one particular definition of "this thing" and very specifically not any other definitions, even though a lot of other people use those definitions and will react accordingly.

It's not censorship though. Consideration isn't censorship, and choosing to use an alternative name in an IP isn't a ban. In many ways this article is click bait, playing on people's fears of censorship and 'woke' authority (which it isn't either)

I also like the different in world perspectives on what's going on. Kind of like how different communities in The Walking Dead had different names for the zombies... Walkers, biters, rotters, empties, geeks etc

It kind of bridges Control and Resonant, in that it shows what the rest of the FBC have been doing since The Oldest House went into Lockdown. What is known, what is unknown etc etc. I played it through on easy cos I'm a wuss

I've just finished Alan Wake 2, which is not combat heavy at all, but it is literally the best game I've ever played. There's a FBC dlc - the Lake House - which is very thematically Control, just without the psychic kick assery. I'd highly recommend it. I'll be getting Control Resonant ASAP

I'd rather play something, and pay money for something, that actively supports traditional ways of play rather than throttling features behind a paywall. You're right, we still can play with pencil and paper, but the current D&D model is deprioritising that in favour of a SaaS model

I usually have a single sheet of paper with 4 bullet points on it and that sees me through half the campaign. So pulling it back to the discourse, the player in question is an asshole, but they wouldn't be derailing all terrain vehicle with a faulty compass that is my plot. I would be all WTF dude

This story comes up every now and then. My favourite bit of it was that it was a blank piece of paper and I hadn't written anything about the other side of the door. I just did it for the bit. I have so few original ideas that I would never throw them away.
