Dungeons & Dragons will release its 2024 ruleset under a Creative Commons licence
  • @loboaureo @copacetic yeah. Until they decide to argue to revoke the license for reasons.

    (Also you have to watch out what part is covered under the license, some stuff is gonna be product identity)

    (Actually, the beneficial part of this is mostly that you can use their own expression of the rules to make games. Rules as such are not copyrightable, but if you are expressing the rules too similar to their own texts they still could sue you. Using such a license is supposed to take care of that)

  • Sliding into your DMs
  • @jounniy @PugJesus it's a dirty joke, and not necessarily a good one

    (no accounting for taste though...)

  • 5e has an advantage of not requiring doctorate in quantum physics to run
  • @DmMacniel @TheGreatDarkness because it sells. And no matter what hobby stuff is going on, dnd players are disconnected from that to a point. There are people that do not even realize there is a wider hobby outside of 5e

  • How Difficulty Class and the D20 engine ruined roleplaying
  • @Obonga @copacetic the author is putting too much effort into writing this. Obviously it hasn't ruined roleplaying if the hobby didn't stop. It's not like people were forced to play that way, not even in 3e. It's just that a lot of people took to it because it was easier for them. And yes, getting people out of the habit is an issue sometimes, but if it was successful, did it really ruin anything?

    People really should calm down sometimes and let people do what they like.

  • Getting started with designing Wargame rules for military fantasy campaigns
  • @Yora I like HOTT for it's tone, which is very conversational and fun.

    the issue I have with it is that it demands specific bases of miniatures, which makes it difficult for me to reuse the minis in other places. i lately have started basing more for Lion Rampant/Dragon Rampant, and plan to just use those on trays

  • Why bands are disappearing: "Young people aren’t excited by them"
  • @AttackBunny @JoYo modern music always sucks. the reason why the music of the past seems better is because nobody remembers all the chaff that populated the charts.

  • China’s version of the Satanic Panic has the government regulating LARPs
  • @lategamer @[email protected] actually not much as such, but one barely hears about roleplaying games in that part of the world, and to have it big enough to elicit a government response is interesting, don't you think?
