TONIGHT! 7:30pm Central, it's Inappropriate Characters. Guest starring Griffith Morgan (Secrets of Blackmoor, Lost Dungeons of Tonisborg), where we'll be talking about the absolute state of D&D, and what's real Old School! Don't miss it!
#dnd #dnd5e #osr #ttrpg #onednd #blackmoor
For the first time in a very long while, the people in charge of D&D are not game designers. And they don't think of D&D as an RPG.
A review of "6x6x6: The Mayhemic Missile Method", an OSR sourcebook for Lamentations of the Flame Princess.

Whatever type of authentic setting you're creating, especially if it is based on a non-modern society, it's very important that the metaphysics of the setting are such that what the PCs do MATTERS.
Tonight, 7:30PM Central! It's Inappropriate Characters! Join me, Jobe, and Venger LIVE as we talk about the latest news and controversy in the #dnd #ttrpg and #OSR world!
Don't miss it!
WoTC promises every single word in every #dnd5e book will now need to be approved by "Diversity Reader" political commissars. Every game designer will be watched by multiple diversity hires in a massive Woke make-work scheme.
The new first chapter preview of the new WotC dragonlance book shows what they plan to do to that setting and its themes. It also shows their ongoing hypocrisy about "diversity".
I review The Book of Antitheses, one of the weirdest RPG products ever made. But is it actually good for anything?
Tonight! 8pm Central! I talk about the nature of horror RPG gaming, and the horrors of our postmodern world! Join my 6000-subscriber Livestream!
The latest data sure indicates that I've been right all along about the speeding up of D&D sales decline the more woke their garbage products become...
Looking at three different levels of occult modern play in The Invisible College: Local, Agents, and Global Conspiracy.
#ttrpg #OSR #dnd #Cthulhu
A review of the LotFP adventure, No Rest For the Wicked. Has Lamentations painted itself into a corner?
#dnd #ttrpg #osr
After doing everything the Wokists demanded, WoTC is told #dnd is still Racist because it doesn't allow flying halflings.
#dnd5e #OneDnD #OSR #ttrpg
Kobold Press and Wolfgang Baur bend the knee to a race-obsessed fanatic for no good reason.
#dnd #ttrpg #osr
Talking about how to make sure your RPG Homebrew world is not crap like Rings of Power. In the process I point out something about WHY RoP sucks that I haven't seen anyone else notice yet!
If you're a #dnd5e gamer who's sick of the Wokeness, or is just ready for a better experience, the OSR is very easy to get into!
It shouldn't be any surprise that people who think nonhuman characters in fantasy are just stand-ins for racial groups would produce racist caricatures when left in charge of #dnd products.
TONIGHT! Inappropriate Characters. Get all the news about #onednd and other topics in #ttrpg news and controversy.
#dnd #OSR
I take a look at Tonisborg, an amazing historical artefact of very early D&D. The book is amazing but has only one big problem with it...
#dnd #ttrpg #osr #blackmoor
With the new "revised edition" it's #OneDnD to rule them all, and in the wokeness bind them....
The guy who spent months making it clear that "this game is not for you" to white gamers is now broke, and says you're racist if you don't buy his game.
#dnd #ttrpg #osr
NEW! Social Encounters: Along the Silk Road, my new expanded reaction roll rules for social RP! Usable in any system or setting!
I review another new #lotfp book, which is technically not an RPG product at all... check it out!
#ttrpg #osr #dnd
Woke "Safety Tools" like the X-Card claim to be to help traumatized people be able to play D&D, but are actually based on the idea that you are unspeakably toxic and evil, and need to be controlled, as part of their attack on normal society.

Tonight! 7:30pm Central! It's Inappropriate Characters!
My review of Night Owl Workshop's OSR game, Warriors of the Red Planet. Guest starring Meatball!
#dnd #ttrpg #osr
For some reason (what could it be?) WoTC is not really pushing these four things about Radiant Citadel in how they sell it to regular gamers...
How generous of WoTC that it gives us DMs permission to still portray NPCs of other cultures, for now. But they have conditions! And those conditions give away how much their wokist ideology is incompatible with RPGs.
The people in the Fake-OSR are utterly confused as to why people in the Real OSR (especially me) get so much attention.
#OSR #dnd #ttrpg
A section-by-section review of my new Sword & Caravan campaign guide!
#dnd #ttrpg #osr
WoTC's data on the demographics of who plays dnd5e is very interesting, but what's even more interesting is the way they are trying to frame that data.
#dnd #dnd5e #wotc #ttrpg #OSR
Wizards of the Coast employees are threatening their own company, because Hasbro didn't make any kind of statement in support of abortion.
#dnd #ttrpg #osr #dnd5e
My review of the #lotfp adventure "The Punchline", with its Renaissance-style insane clown posse and a deadly plague. But does it manage to overcome its clichés?
A first look at my bestselling new setting book: Sword & Caravan!
The Wokist SJWs keep alternating between trying to destroy the #OSR (or declare it "dead") and trying to infiltrate/subvert it. But the structure of the OSR is a model for how to resist Wokism. Their latest efforts are getting desperate, and just preaching to a diminishing choir.
#ttrpg #dnd
Is an OSR game actually able to emulate a straight Marvel/DC type superhero genre effectively? I review the Guardians RPG to find out!

There are good and bad ways to write history for your D&D setting or world-book. And some secrets for how to make your historical lore useful and authentic.
Aaron the Pedantic is being a wuss at failing to call out the people who call him a Nazi.
Also, I talk about the new #OSR magical systems in The Invisible College!
#ttrpg #dnd
It sure looks like the guy supposedly making "Star Frontiers" for New-TSR is a huge racist/anti-Semite.
So Venger Satanis has had his latest book suspended because of "offensive" political content. But meanwhile, the other side's content on the exact same issue is allowed!
Tonight! 7:30pm Central! It's Inappropriate Characters!
D&D wokist with no moral compass thinks everyone playing D&D "justifies violence".
#dnd #ttrpg #osr
I review a ridiculously named, hilariously offensive #LotFP adventure. But is it anything more than a title designed for trolling? Check it out!
Tomorrow, 2pm Eastern, I'll be a guest star on the Unsafe Space channel, talking about RPGs of course! Check out Beverly at Token Minority Report on that channel for the interview.
#dnd #ttrpg #osr
WotC's upcoming #dragonlance and #spelljammer books were made without any consultation from the original designers. It's easy to guess how they plan to ruin Dragonlance for its fans, but can they even ruin Spelljammer?
Taking a look at my Last Sun #OSR gonzo setting, and the craziest things in it.
#dnd #ttrpg
The #dnd SJWs are trying to have a certain common #ttrpg word abolished. Here's my guesses to what they'll try to replace it with.
#osr
A published study that polled gamers and non-gamers of different ethnicities revealed what I already suspected about the level of public support for RPG Wokist claims.
#dnd #ttrpg #osr
I review an #OSR #ttrpg inspired by Indiana Jones. Is it any good? Check out the video!
#dndThe new #dnd5e #RadiantCitadel book promises no intrigues, no lurking monsters, no gritty crime-ridden streets, and "Diversity"! Which means lazy utopian stereotypes and no Caucasian game designers.
Today! Live at 7pm Central, I'll be guest starring on the T-Shirted Historian's YouTube show! We'll probably be discussing the gaming hobby, and whether academics should really be wearing T-shirts.
Tonight, 7:30pm Central, it's Inappropriate Characters! Everybody Hates Venger edition.
Low Powered vs High? Common vs Rare? Talking about the use of magic, magic power levels, and magic items in #dnd / #osr games as well as in the Invisible College RPG.
#ttrpg
The WokeSR are furious that regular OSR game designers are making money and getting attention by making exciting supplements in the Itchio Game Jam. What a surprise...
#dnd #ttrpg #osr #gamejam
Are you a #ttrpg game designer looking for more opportunities to get recognized? Join the Game Jam and produce a supplement for a known #OSR product!
RPGPundit reviews "Green Messiah", an #osr adventure for #lotfp
Tomorrow, 7:30pm Central, it's Inappropriate Characters!
Join me, Venger and Jobe along with special guest star Taylor Lane. We'll be talking about them, their OSR products, their fight against the Woke Indie RPG mob, and lots of other topics including the latest Critical Role controversy!The #ttrpgfamily hashtag on Twitter is trying to sell a fantasy to lonely gamers, as a means of strengthening wokist control.
Check out the details of my latest book: RPGPundit's Old School Companion 2: Medieval Authentic Adventures!
#ttrpg #dnd #OSR
I review LotFP's Terror in the Streets, an investigative #OSR adventure set in Paris in 1630. But how historically accurate is it? More importantly, how good is it? Check it out!

Where I talk about magical practices from The Invisible College and how to incorporate them into #OSR play.
I have been saying for ages that the Wokist agenda for #dnd5e is to turn every setting into 2021 Seattle culture.
My new book is out NOW!
