“Old school D&D? Hex crawls? Mega dungeons? Inventory management? Who would want to play these games?” Is what I used to think…before watching 3D6 DTL. They’ve shown me how creative and fun old school games can be, and I’ll forever be grateful to the whole crew for opening up my eyes to what is now my biggest passion in hobbies.
