He’s gotta be kidding right?  Hasn’t he seen the backlash over the past year?  I hope NFT games fail so much itll discourage MTX experiments in the future.

They need to completely revamp the game.  Offline, no mtx, more appropriate powers for the squad, and a host of other issues.

Part of me wishes all publishers and marketplace owners are punished in some way, having to pay a big fine so they immediately remove all loot box style MTX everywhere. But thats just wishful dreaming.

I get the impression they will add more of whats missing on the sequel.  This first game just establishes the game’s framework.  At least i hope so, if anything the ramifications of your in-game choices would be fun to revisit similar to what we went through with Mass Effect.

Thank you for the heads up.  I’m sorry to say I’ll have to avoid it, despite my love for the IP.  I simply do not trust any company keeping a game alive after I have spent money on it with an always online requirement.  Maybe if the game were offered free at some point in the future would i be willing to spend time on…

Nothing wrong with that, but enough banned words you might as well play offline or with chat completely off because at some point any word can be made offensive with enough influence.

Considering the chat environment of most platforms, I’m not surprised. But at what point will the censorship be too much? The thing about language is that you can make practically anything an innuendo or equivalent at some point. Banning enough words would make communication practically impossible, then again thats…

 A lot of DND groups use Theatre of the mind, no physical maps or figures (maybe a paper map).  Set up for that is quick imho

Bottom line, WoTC wants to deauthorize OGL 1.0a in order to regain full control of the DND ip, everything else is either a smokescreen or side-goal.  They basically want to monetize DND like video games in order to massively increase their profits and the only way to do that is to get rid of OGL 1.0a.  The…

It doesnt matter the job, no AI should ever be allowed to replace a real live person’s ability to make money.  Unless you yourself want to lose your job to an AI in some future.

They invested into crypto?  Ok my opinion of them just sunk to minimal levels.  Hopefully this will be a lesson to others not to invest in crypto bull.

Considering how nauseated I get when trying out VR, I doubt I’ll ever get into any of them even if they ever become ‘affordable’.  I guess sometimes, old fashioned (tech) is good enough to enjoy content.

While i understand the desire to get the artifacts back. Why do i get the feeling it would be a mistake to send anything historic back to the middle east or asia considering how unstable those regions can be.  Look at what the taliban did with museum and historical artifacts.  Egypt, while safer than most, isnt…

Personally I wouldve loved Idris as James.  Nevermind the racial conversation, his on screen persona fills it very well.  That being said, I dont see any other black man being able to do it at this time, even those on that list.  As for a female bond I’d rather watch a brand new character like Jinx  as an example.

Thank you for the good news.  I needed a good laugh this morning. :)

I prefer DND with theatre of the mind play, no play mats, no figurines, no rules involving placement like attacks of opportunity.  Frankly I find it more stimulating as both a DM and a Player.
