I didn’t play this one, but a good friend of mine who frequently DMs for his entirely-too-comedic-for-his-own-good brother told me about it. This was the sort of guy who routinely played characters like Velvet Merlin, the flamingly straight sparklemancer from Greater Fairyton. He wanted to play a half-orc wizard, but…

I love this

Hopefully it means they actually fixed something.

Ive always found that the most fun is losing a game well. If everythings going well, and orderly those games are honestly sort of boring. They’re the most fun when things go of the rails, and everything starts going wrong, and you need to actually think outside of the box to not have everyone die. Its especially fun…

I’ve had all the usual horror stories, but a lot of them ended up being fun. I had one player who decided that he would be disruptive with his cleric and shout, “My God commands me!” In. Every. Single. Encounter. Best part? He whiffed every attack after his battle cry. So, it became a running gag in the group that he…

Hehe... i had a group of friends who used to D&D every week and the DM was one of those rigid, take everything seriously type. One day the rest of the group decide to just mess with him and go completely buck wild during the run. Irritated him to no tomorrow. All came to a close when, after killing a dragon, instead…

The worst thing has to be the Klingons. Every time they come on screen, I’m like not again. Could they at least speak English, so I don’t have to look at them while they are on?

It basically looks like a TMP version of the pre-refit TOS ship. The “refit” from the TV model to the movie model would involve so many frame changes it’s basically an entirely new ship, but this Discovery version of the TOS ship looks like it could be refit into the TMP model. I rather love it, it shows appreciation…

You spelled Voyager wrong

Can we get to the future where people don’t concern themselves with accumulating money over IP and instead further humanity with the best possible Star Trek?

Hell no, its completely shit. Watch “The Orville” instead

“We had the advantage of a ten-year gap in Trek history to retro the ship a bit with elements that could be removed and replaced somewhere in the time frame of Discovery and the Original series.”

Then your third favorite would just be your second.

Couldn’t they just say Romulus is fine in this timeline to just ignore the whole supernova? Maybe even in an episode with time travel shenanigans to wink about the weirdo temporal causality of Star Trek.

The only good thing about ST:D are the ships, the show is utter crap.

The supernova destroyed Romulus the planet, not the entire empire. I think a race so advanced could still recover from the destruction of their homeplanet... he’ll, it’d be a nice set up for a new series having to cope with a Romulan Empire in disarray and full of faction trying to take power.

It’s just another indication to me that this series should been set post-Voyager, then they could just do whatever they wanted without constraints regarding TOS designs.

He should just fake up some Time covers for displaying around the office, like that other validation-deficient white guy we all know.

I’d probably watch something like that. It’d be like Garfield without Garfield, but instead its Purge without Purge.

I have much more fun discussing the theoreticals of the Purge than I suspect I would actually have watching the movies, because I’d get pulled out by constantly wondering “but what about...”. From that perspective, they might be my favorite movies I’ve never watched.
