NFTs feel like looking at buying digital goods and concluding that the problem for the consumer is that there's not enough DRM, its too cheap and too convenient to purchase.

Across American internet, everyone is screaming about having a black person in LOTR ruining their childhood, meanwhile, here people are arguing about horses and details of specific suits of armor. Scandinavian internet is better :)

In a series of questions I had asked Blixt by email (If I remember right) he had opined against half critters in DoD.

A year or three ago, I grabbed the "light" version (1941?, which feels like classic A&A but fewer units on the board. I was surprised how much fun it still ended up being while cutting down the mega dice pools a little bit.

Every day, Mike Mearls looks in the mirror and goes "if they ever get to 120 backers, the secret clause in the old agreements will trigger and we'll have to hand over D&D to some weirdo from Wisconsin".

Rymd is weird because several places in the book calls the game something else (Ragnarok?). I really like it though. In a lot of ways, I kinda like it (and the more high-tech proto-MC setting) better than what became MC.

Tenkar from the Tenkars Tavern blog also got legal threats from them a few months ago

If you all contribute to my indiegogo, I will find that one guy who ran the shitty D&D game in 1984 and make him apologize for taking your characters sword.

Someone pointed out online that at this point, Wizards have owned D&D longer than TSR did. (real TSR, not the fake one)

A gentleman who I forget the name of said to be informed and relaxed, suggested to do the following: Each morning take 10 minutes to read a news site of your choice. Check the headlines and read 1 or 2 stories that seem important. Close it. Dont look at it the rest of the day. On the weekend...

Good news ? The Omicron wave is far more infectious but it seems in the US at least that deaths are a smaller percentage of infections than in previous waves. My state is still hit pretty hard by Delta but numbers out of places where Omicron is in full swing have overall been promising...

I used to play White Wolf games online with a German friend who was a huge DSA fan, so I was familiar.

Also note that there is a huge gap between what the campaign talks about (FIGHT THE POWER MAN), what the actual legal filing talks about (er..can we have this old trademark for a dumb lizard picture?) and what the comments on the campaign talks about (various complaining about ..well, you can...

It's worth noting that its possible they put up some of that money themselves to make it look like they had support. Kinda like how street musicians are supposed to leave a few coins in the cup so that it looks like others thought it was worth throwing in some coins.

Nerds like collecting things :) Usually the actual hobby is not PLAYING the game, but collecting the game: Hunting on ebay and used book shops for a nice copy (or finding a copy at all), finding out about different printings and versions and so on.

80s and 90s stuff is hot right now but there's also a lot of people trying to cash in by selling old crap for insane prices. Shops like Nobleknight (here) and Alphaspel (Sweden) tend to charge on the higher end as well, probably based on what they see online. A few years ago I sold off my...

Appreciate it!

For 16bit era stuff, the computer version of Space Crusade (the board game, not sure if it was released in Sweden?) is outstanding but play the Amiga version on emulator as the DOS game has crap PC music (n) Hero Quest had a very fun computer version too in the same era.

As posted, you can own a machine gun with proper licensing and so forth. I suppose in a weird way, its almost not worth restricting: You can't really rob a bank with your Maxim gun so it ends up just being for hobby purposes :D That is an extremely expensive hobby though.
