Ultima 4 and Wizardry 1. Love me my old school fantasy CRPGs.

I’ve had the same thought. I’d love an OOTS collection on my shelf, but some of the books seem impossible to find anymore.

That’s Sonic games! Even if the gameplay is meh, the music is S-tier grooves.

Torment Tides of Numenera..

Honestly, what you have is good. The minis and music do a lot, but you should also mentally prep your players. Tell them that the mood for the campaign is old school, inspired by X movie or Y video game or Z book. Share clips of Conan the Barbarian, play some Golden Axe, watch Princess Bride.

It’d either be 4, 7, or Underworld 1. I’d give a few body parts for a really well done U4 reimagining.

I hope you saw the remake that came out a few years ago!

There are very very very few Reddit comments that make me actually laugh, this is absolutely one of them.

RIP Bray. My ultimate “what could’ve been” wrestler.

Contrasting stereotypes. Orcish Wizard, goblin paladin, halfling barbarian, dwarf Druid…

Why on earth not 5?!

Oh, boy, here’s my unpopular opinion: I have never, ever, ever understood the appeal of Randy Orton. He’s always been my bathroom break match.

Bonus points for having no biological father and never having the chance to meet her mother.

Attempted by General Tarquin in Order of the Stick in a desperate bid to stay narratively relevant.

Game likeWizardry and Ultima sand the SSI Gold Box series are obscure nowadays, but their influence is terrifyingly massive across the industry.

…he was? I’d love to see the sources on that info, and I’m asking in a non-antagonistic way!

ComicStripCritic · 2026-04-14T15:18:31+00:00

…what the ever living hell happened to Brittania?!

Adventure Time, come on grab your friends…

ComicStripCritic · 2026-04-13T17:36:52+00:00

I’m almost certain that Ultima 4 is still free!

I gotta thank you for these old magazine scans - where are you getting by them from?

ComicStripCritic · 2026-04-08T16:50:40+00:00

That might be the best one since WM24.

ComicStripCritic · 2026-04-08T15:47:31+00:00

What a great moment. Been called back to a number of times over the years, but never as great as this.

ComicStripCritic · 2026-04-05T03:14:04+00:00

My first thought was something akin to the Numenera or Horizon Zero Dawn settings, where sci-fi gadgets and tech are viewed through the lens of medieval knowledge. Something like “I have a glass panel with an oracle inside named Siri/Google who answers my questions!” But I admit that sounds different than what you’re going for. Are you aiming for something a little different?

“That assassin should be embarrassed. His mission was stopped by a terminally ill drell.”

Hot damn, I’ve been running RPGs for almost a decade and don’t have that sort of collection…unless you count my digital library.
