Beyond just the artwork, Professor DM went to bat for Elon Musk who got angry at a D&D history book correctly pointing out that Gary Gygax had bigoted views and signalboosted other YouTubers doing the same. He and Esper appear to have taken down their OG vids, tho. x.com/dungeoncraft...

Typical #rpg Optional Superboss -Ancient Superweapon sealed away by the gods -Requires cheesy exploits to survive past the 1st turn -Isn't even the strongest being lorewise but the stats say otherwise -Character design draws upon collective millennia of eschatological myth folklore 1/2

I'm reading Chivalry & Sorcery, a ttrpg that really goes all-in on in-depth rules for medieval simulation. The character creation has 20 steps, and a huge amount of highly-specific occupations. One of them is charcoal merchant, which gave me an idea to try and build a "medieval Hank Hill"
Hank Hill from King of the Hill is at a Renaissance fair, dressed in a period-appropriate green-brown tunic. He is talking to a man dressed as a king complete with cape, crown, and royal emblem of a shield with red and purple stripes. The king has a confused look on his face, while people in the crowd behind him look bored and unenthusiastic.

I finished a review for Dungeons of Drakkenheim for #5e #dnd by the @dungeondudes.bsky.social . An excellent dark fantasy sandbox with a touch of cosmic horror and politicking between rival factions, all while exploring a city rent asunder by cosmic horrors! www.enworld.org/threads/dung...
A bearded warrior with a blade and transparent shield-like barrier is fighting off four monstrous humanoids. One has a swollen head and tentacle-like tail, another has a head which is entirely a toothy maw with many tongues, another has a sharp bony exoskeleton and incisors, and another has its face and arms covered in cancerous growths.

From the new Adventures in #faerun book for #dnd. When death and tyranny reign supreme... When there's no epic-level NPCs to save the day... One rat, in one city... Is all that stands against the tide of darkness spreading across Faerûn!
a trio of evil-looking masked figures sit in a rowboat sailing across a sewer river. In front of them stands a rat, which due to the perspective and angle of the illustration places an unexpected amount of importance on the animal.

I recently finished reading Flee, Mortals by MCDM Productions, and I get the hype. From variant CR threat levels and roles for many of the classic humanoid monsters to Retainer/Companion rules for monstrous sidekicks, it's perhaps the best "monster manual" for #dnd #5e I've read.

Was talking on a forum about Golarion's metaplot for #pathfinder2e. Between the Worldwound sealing and Cheliax losing territory and ending slavery, seems like demons and devils weakening in power. So where does that leave daemons? Perhaps as a new BBEGroup?

I recently finished Dawnsbury Days, a fun video game utilizing the #pathfinder2e rules. Unlike Solasta or Baldur's Gate 3 you really need to ensure that your entire party synergizes in terms of strategy. Making party members in a vacuum hurts more than in the 5e games if you have weak spots.

Today I finished reading the #pathfinder 2e Lost Omens World Guide. It was a relatively breezy read at its page count of 130 and was easy enough to navigate. While it doesn't do anything truly new or innovative, the Guide does have something for everyone and the metaplot updates are cool.

Case in point, my headcanon for my Khajiit Swashbuckler pictures her as a stereotypical Chaotic Good headstrong charmer. In hindsight, I feel that saving the DB for a second playthrough would've been best. Generally, I think that 2-33 factions are my sweet spot for questline completion. 2/2

Quasar Knight @quasarknight.bsky.social · 12/05/2025
I've been doing a "completionist run" for Oblivion Remaster. While still fun, I have the feeling that doing all the factions feels rather incongruous for a lot of role-play archetypes. The Dark Brotherhood in particular has you act pretty villainous in contrast with the more heroic plotlines. 1/2
