EverettLO posted:An article that's a sloppy blowjob to 5e D&D, this time from the New Yorker. The only new twist is that they seem to suggest that 5e was a good enough game to lead to the rise of the RP podcasting surge, rather than coincidentally benefitting from it solely based on lucky timing. end my suffering

Terrible Opinions posted:Manga doesn't have the sprawling shared universes that tend to strangle western comics to death, still can if given the time and choice disappear up their own rear end. Shaman King for instance disappeared in a puff of self-importance. basically manga is generally written by one person, maybe two, and an editor. big manga authors will have assistants but they generally just do stuff like inking or drawing backgrounds, not plot stuff. anime (that was never manga) is usually written by a group and anime adapted from manga usually cuts content or, in the case of weekly anime, adds generally bad content so it doesn't outpace the manga which are generally running weekly at the same time. this doesn't necessarily mean anime is worse than manga, but especially if you want something action/fighting-based, the manga will generally be a lot cleaner.

Moriatti posted:What's a good PVP game, either an "RPG" focused on PVP or a board game that lets you have a high degree of customization over your chracters? There's tons of good (or at least decent) board games for 1v1 squad skirmishes or larger battles, but if you're looking for customization for a single unit in a one-on-one fight, the only good one I can think of is the now-defunct (twice over) DBZ CCG. There's a healthy fan community with some people from the original playtest group still making fan content, and presumably the lack of official tournaments/support wouldn't bother you for what you're looking to do, so it's still a decent option. e: Mage Wars is another decent choice.

The Panini game, yeah. It's actually the same game with a few tweaks as the original one, namely it introduced the Critical Damage mechanic and a few other minor changes (like all decks are exactly 60 cards instead of between 45 and 75). As for acquiring the game I'm sure there's a lot of people selling off their cards/collections since, again, the game was formally cancelled about a year ago due to Bandai deciding to release their lovely japanese Dragon Ball Super tcg over here and reclaiming their license. I'm not sure what policy is for gaming stores and selling the cards now, but there's a few facebook groups for the game that could steer you in the right direction if you're interested in learning more. There's also full OCTGN lists if you want to try the game before digging into buying stuff. - Main facebook group - Selling-focused facebook group (I have no experience with this one) Oh, and while the fan content is high quality for being fan content, it's still just that and I recommend avoiding it until you've sapped the official stuff for all the enjoyment you can.

my favorite part about megatokyo leetspeak is that it's like, far beyond the pale. even when people used leetspeak it was "sh1t l1k3 th15", people weren't making loving ascii letters to fill in the blanks or whatever. it's like someone's mom saw an AOL chatroom once or twice and then needed to recreate it from memory a month later

whydirt posted:That's the character that was made in the creation demo video: I sorta hate the Core Path example given, it sounds like you just sorta stretch your best one to fit whatever situations you can when it's even vaguely relevant. Like the whole "I remember reading a legend about an expert marksman in my library. Rolling Knowledge: History to line up my shot" thing that use to get joked about here a lot. The rest seems neat though.

for people who didn't watch the video, the example given is that the character is using her "A Warrior's Heart" bonus (her best at +3, versus +1 for the others) to augment her ability to out-drink someone, saying that when she was a kid she got into drinking contents with her brothers and lost a lot but it bolstered her tolerance
