Well said… Thanks for spelling it out!

Same for me. I have been reading Linus (Torvalds) posts since decades and it really seemed out of character to me. I even clicked on the link but I admit that I haven’t yet understood what is going on. I have decided that it’s not for me…

So long, and thanks.

What is an “Analogue pocket” for those of us … Out of the loop?

There is an optional Ocr pass, from what I understand

One wonders how they market their services : “come to us, we are the best fake reviewers you can find on the web and these 5-star reviews prove it!”

I understand. Just keep in mind that you don’t need to “do the voices” or to treat it like an “improv theatre”, a perfectly fine way to play is to refer to your character in third person: “so and so knocks quietly on the door and asks “is anybody in there?” Before kicking the door open with a roaring laughter”… And another player could sigh in first person, rolling her eyes: “oh no! Not again!”.

As for knowing what to do, that’s the job of the GM, to set up interesting scenes for the table!

The movie was quite fun! And it gave a good idea of a fun rpg session, but I prefer other game systems rather than DnD to have that kind of feeling!

Have you ever thought about trying ttrpgs?

Thanks, I still have to get the hang of this “federation” of servers-thing. I found this beehaw community and the philosophy seemed welcoming and inclusive and so I went for this! I will check out the one that you linked above. Thanks!

Hi! This is my first post here so I hope I don’t make some mistakes. If you like Heroquest you could look at other dungeon crawlers, like the dungeons and dragons boardgames (my favourite is “waterdeep: the dungeon of the mad mage”), or my beloved Star wars: imperial assault or Lord of the rings: Journeys in the Middle earth. If you want to expand to other genres, since you like AH you could try Arkham horror: living card game. Absolute masterpiece.

The latest addiction to my game library is Earthborne rangers and is quite a refreshing take.

I hope that some of these resonate with you!
