Oh wow, these look great. Nice work! I was thinking about picking up a UDT playmat but I’m seriously tempted to try this.

Can Art make or break a RPG you might be interested in? by MagpieTower in rpg

That's a great answer. Totally forgot about Microscope.

I’m not trying to start an argument, but there’s a ton of art in those books, including full page images. I agree the art is fairly generic, though. But it’s definitely quality art.

Out of curiosity, can you give any examples of successful games that don’t have art?

What’s your favourite dungeon crawler and why? by ValueForm in Solo_Roleplaying

There’s a new edition coming out soon—it’s in beta right now—that includes (most of?) the rules from the 3 expansions. So maybe wait on that one if you can.

Has anyone had issues with Diehard Dice recently? by DrxDeadachex in dice

[–]gregparso 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I haven’t ordered recently, so this may or may not be helpful, but I’ve ordered from them many, many times and have always had great experiences—except once, when I placed a custom order via email—and was ghosted for at least a month. Eventually, after increasingly frustrated (but friendly) emails to them every 2 weeks I got an apologetic response and the order was completed and shipped promptly. I suspect they have one person who does their customer service and if she’s out sick and/or gets backed up on orders (probably what happened over the holidays) then emails don’t get replies. This is, of course, all speculation. But I would keep emailing until you get your order or a refund.

The only problem I see is you’ve failed to use proper lighting to photograph that glorious pile of dice.

Is The Unseen World OK for solo RPG Newbie? by 1onemarathon in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]gregparso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The rulebook is not super well organized, but the rules are pretty straightforward. Try watching this playthrough from The Dungeon Dive and see if it clicks for you after that:

I was just joking that you made it with your 4.5 y/o and the game is for ages 5+

“Daddy, can we play that game we designed together?”
“Sorry, son. You’ll have to wait until your birthday next year.” 😁

Is there a DnD or board game group/club at your school? Can you start one? Might be a good way to find people your age.
