Nice one, this is quite lovely.
Have to say, it's been a while since I've seen such a classic rendition of a fantasy sword, thank you!

Now we should just make the rest of the world follow suit. Easy

I wonder how long did it take for the covers to begin deforming like that... if you caught it quickly it can't have been long.
Good call on the recall. This defect would have ruined the experience for everyone

You a fireman now or that's just a sidegig for getting on your way to 451 posts on this platform?

It ain't easy when things turn out like this. Perhaps reprint those 8 pages prior to gluing and binding?

You forgot "...and overwhelmingly strong plot necessities"

Ranger: Look! A present on the doorstep! It’s from the BBEG!

Fighter: Don’t open it!

Rogue: I check for traps...23

DM, chuckling maniacally: You see no traps!

Party: *screams*

BBEG, watching the party look at the empty box he sent: It’s so easy to fuck with them

An image of the faces of The Ancestor from Darkest Dungeon, and The Academic from Darkest Dungeon II. A torch glows between their two faces. The images reads: "Ancestor, Academic, Artist & friend. Wayne June. Twelve years ago, Tyler and I reached out to Wayne, humbly asking him to narrate our indie game’s trailer. Since those magical moments when we first paired his reading with the footage, it has been an incredible and fulfilling collaboration. Wayne’s singular baritone and masterful cadence elevated everything he read. He was a consummate professional, and his love of his craft was an inspiration. His inimitable work is woven into the very fabric of our industry in a way that cannot be forgotten. It is one of my life’s greatest honors to have written for him this past decade. Though I never got to shake his hand, I knew him to be a friend. Thank you, Wayne. -Chris Bourassa, for Tyler Sigman and the Red Hook team"

"Go with grace into the great beyond..."

We at Red Hook are heartbroken to confirm the passing of our beloved voice actor, Wayne June.

@redhookstudios.bsky.social Best 15 bucks I'll spend this month, I'm sure of it! Let's go!

Innkeep: Hello! How can I help you?

Paladin: Hi, we’re looking for a room where 5 people can fit nicely and be ready for assassins?

Innkeep: Ah, the Adventurer’s Suite, of course sir. We do require a security deposit on that room in particular.

Paladin: Understandable.

Good Omens? Reminds me of Good Omens' opening... good choice

Sam with his “shitty not compendium” books

Looks like there’s a lot of folks migrating here from threads—might as well reintroduce myself!

I’m Sam Comerford! I’m an author, musician, screenwriter, heroforge fanatic, and creator of many “shitty” DnD/TTRPG ideas!

Attached in the thread below is a list of the stuff I’ve done—welcome! 💙

Paladin: Be on the lookout- the mimics could be anything.

Rogue: Ehhh, I’ll be fine. I know what I’m looking for.

Rogue’s Knife: Yeah, she knows what she’s lookin’ for!

Rogue:...What are you drinking?

Vampire: A health potion.

Rogue:...

Vampire:...

Rogue: That’s not a health potion, is it?

Vampire: I mean, technically it is for me.

Rogue: I’m just gonna pretend I didn’t see that.

Vampire: Smart words, juicebox.

Damn, Vampire Hunter D was a long time ago, thanks for bringing up this memory :)

You forgot a few dozen, Senua, Plague tale etc.
But yes, no reason to gatekeep protagonists

Struggle, unjust and morally depleted humans, unlikely heroes with questionable morals. Self improvement maybe? Depends on the party

Congratulations to the winner! This is an exquisitely looking book

Will see if it's somewhere in the trackers, thanks! :)

Seems like I've missed out on that Secret level thing.
Reveal-wise, it looked decent I suppose. Just not sure it needed a Pac-Man coat of paint. Could've just been a new IP

Yes, and I'm tired of pretending it's novel

The industry needed that win, a reminder that games are games, and are meant to be fun.

The delightful platformer Astro Bot takes Game of the Year at the 2024 Game Awards. Director Nicolas Doucet thanks his team and Super Mario Bros

We really needed a Game game to win GOTY in the TGA this year. It's been rough, good to take some time to celebrate good old video games.

How come every time I see @samlakewrites.bsky.social in any event, he's instantly the star of the show? Great TGA performance mate! And people say Finnish people are cold and boring, lol

5090, MSRP $2000, watch it happen. Things are rough last couple of years
