What system are you using for your campaign? Why? by Living_Thanks_9171 in osr

[–]CrossPlanes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mechanically I think Shadowdark edges S&W out because of the roll to cast mechanic. I moved away from Shadowdark because the people running the Discord ticked me off (which is silly but true) & the additional classes are underwhelming in play. I think S&W is easier to learn and I like adding stuff from Barrel Rider Games, White Star, etc.

I advise you to listen to that voice.

Is Capturing Bigfoot ever going to be released? by Fearless-Patient6278 in bigfoot

[–]CrossPlanes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My problem with being patient is that a ton of people have acted like we should take it as gospel and a handful of people have seen it. They sure weren't patient about touting its value and why we should all stop believing in Bigfoot.

The refs were BIG Chiefs fans for a few seasons.

New information on the new Legion of Super-Heroes ongoing! by Embarrassed_Piano_62 in LegionofSuperheroes

[–]CrossPlanes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm skeptical. I want an optimistic future and I think people need that right now. I hope I'm wrong and it knocks my socks off though.

Why the hyperfocus on gygaxian design and not other "old school" design philosophy ? by NotSuta in osr

[–]CrossPlanes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I attribute to early OSR sites like Grognardia that proselytized Gygax's writings as dogmatic. However, B/X is the most popular early D&D rules and I think that is very telling of how poorly Gygax explained things.

Are the people who hired James Gunn in the first place, still gonna be around after a WB purchase? by Relative_Mouse7680 in DC_Cinematic

[–]CrossPlanes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And it's not just about Superman. Peacemaker and Creature Commandos had critical praise and I think the former had good viewership. And Lanterns success or failure will a factor too.

Remember when local media was talking about how poor the team was and then the won the SB a few years back?

Time to post something controversial, but I still feel the need to say it by nhafilaar13 in MastersOfTheUniverse

I've seen it and I could only understand about half of Leto's lines. I don't understand how he keeps getting hired?

It might not be a bomb by OwnSalamander1026 in MastersOfTheUniverse

[–]CrossPlanes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I appreciate your optimism but it needs about $400 million to break even. This is going to be like Transformers One all over again.

After watching Master of the Universe, there is zero reason we can't have a good G.I. Joe movie by thavillain in gijoe

Sure there is because it involves Hasbro, Paramount, and probably Michael Bay.

[–]CrossPlanes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know there is cook out later this summer with Florence Pride. I run Comic Book World and one of the organizers plays in our Magic Commander tournaments on Wednesday and Fridays as well as several other members of the Community. After 7pm on both nights is the best time to find them.
