  • Hooting, hollering, and an educational resource

    This is one of those ones that has me laughing or gasping or making facial expressions on a bus that probably cause some idle entertainment for people around me. But also the game designer interviews esp are a hugely helpful tool for helping introduce a game to friends who want to play but don’t have the time to read all of a PDF.

  • Something to be excited about

    I’ve been in a slump where there’s nothing I want to read/listen to, and very little I want to do. My first dungeon’s Wildsea play through has been the highlight of my month, and given me something to be excited about.

    This is absolutely giving me the confidence I need to try my hand at DMing. My wife recently ventured to DM for her first time and I think I’m ready to follow suit.
