Rich ? No Can you earn a living writing games. Yes, absolutely. I do. But it requires a few things and at least one of them is luck. 1: You have to actually write a lot. One book won't carry you. You need to build an actual catalogue. 2: You gotta have something interesting to say. 3: You need...

Jag behöver din hjälp! I need some suggestions for Swedish language youtube channels. I was trying to search for some old threads but was not having any luck. This is for language practice. I am ideally looking for stuff such as cooking, home improvement, travel, that sort of thing. Though if...

We definitely never felt that Warhammer was "not fantasy" despite the fact you can shoot a dragon in the face with a cannon. Glorantha also has firearms (from the Dwarves) and is very fantasy. Though I prefer a more iron age look to my fantasy. Once the full plate armours start to show up, it...

When translating Eon and Ereb Altor stuff for my American friends, we decided to keep all place names in Swedish, even if they are words with an actual meaning like "the tall mountain" or whatever. You just have to anglify some things, like figuring out if you are okay calling a character a...

I haven't seen anything out there, but online translation has come miles and miles in recent years. It'll sometimes struggle with made up names, like fantasy city names, but otherwise it is really quite good. A friend of mine was using it for some Eon stuff and it worked quite well. Does he...

I just want to clarify that it is not really intended to have a deadline. I think a bunch of people thought I meant "within 2 years", but I only mentioned 2 years as an example of what I thought it'd take for my board games. That's my bad sorry. My collection is around 75 board games, 25 or so...

I omitted digital products unless I had them printed out and spiral bound :) Otherwise itd get pretty bad. I buy a LOT of random minis game rules from drivethru

You can set the rules. If a game was bought with the intention of not playing it, then leave it off. I don't know that the point is completeing the challenge (though that would be cool) as much as it is giving it a damn good shot.

This is the challenge I am embarking on starting.. well, now really but next year realistically. I made a list of every RPG, miniatures game and war game I own. Physical copies only (but PDF's I have had printed out do count) and I left out one or two things (2 Japanese RPG books I can't read...

The main advantages for me is: A: There are two feeds, an algorithmic one that tries to suggest things and a "following" feed which is only people you choose to follow, and it displays all their posts and in chronological order. B: The mute features are pretty good. You can mute a term...

welcome to the future where every means of expression is owned by a couple of billionaires. Please post responsibly.

Looking forward to D&D having a rule that the GM can't tell you no when you roll to seduce the bar maid.

In BRP derived games, numbers always tell. Other things you can do to make a fight tougher: Include a champion or boss type that leads the regular grunts. The enemy has a few guys with missile weapons that hang back (in a difficult to reach spot) while the main group attacks up close. Enemy...

I would pay SOMETHING for an office suite that offered something unique and powerful but I don't think that something is 179 USD (and thats on sale)

Libreoffice always worked better than Openoffice for me. I like OnlyOffice for openoffice compatibility but I don't know if its Mac only or not. Its a bit more polished feeling in some ways I think.

Affinity is very nice and is a one time purchase. Apple pages has a layout mode though its more limited of course. Ive seen people do some decently impressive stuff still.

For Call of Cthulhu, print out pages from old newspapers which can be found online. Old maps can also be great for setting the vibe.

Sorry mate.

I quit using it before Musk took over and it was already full of the worst people. I reported straight up "gas the <slur for jews>" posts and was told every time that it did not violate their policies. It is much much worse now and now its funneling money into the pockets of a guy who will have...

You can get better RPG content by just shouting at strangers on the street.
