That's definitely a good thing.

No, I am very suspicious. Smells like enshittification on the horizon.

Exactly this. It seems there must be something that will foul this up and then we are back at Adobe subs or similar nonsense I wanted to escape in the first place. Hence I am hesitant to switch to the new Affinity.

I have never used Canva so cannot compare. I am still trying to figure out what features from previous Affinity they may have killed/removed. Especially on the Publisher side of things.

Fellow #ttrpg enthusiasts, what are we thinking of the new #affinity ? Free ususally means we pay with something else. Not sure about this, I can smell enshittification on the horizon. They bet everything on people wanting AI it looks like.

OMW to #spiel25! First time with an exhibitor working. Going to be interesting and busy days!

I am helping out TwoLittleMice. They are friends and I want to do this once.

It's a good ep. Since they do the 4 beginning shots they run longer than the other sessions will. Brennan wanted to get to a certain point so ran overtime.

Almost time for #spiel2025. Will be interesting to get a small look behind the scenes by working a stand and being there for press day.

Final image, all done. IG-88 took a bunch of damage from his own abilities. Worth it.

Got Mandalorian Adventures for my birthday. Light and fun tactical game but a bit linear. I need more boardgames to use ring books as maps. Make it 2 squared ones for bigger playing fields. #boardgames

To all the people saying, "I can't trust players not to metagame and cheat," and your players are not actual children, then you're most likely the problem.
It's amazing how much better everything is once you treat your players like adults and let your expectations be known. Trust is pretty cool.

Just a few days until #spiel #essen very excited. This year I will help my friends from 2LittleMice and be there the whole time at their stand. Anyone else around?

I wrote another adventure. It's free. It's a forestcrawl. Get it!

Fair enough.

Yup, it's fun. I use it in my GM notes sometimes to roll right in there when running games.

Or maybe he just lies because that's what gets him what he wants. I find the "if the furer wasn't mislead" narrative highly disturbing.

My latest Tricube Tales one-page RPG is Arcane Resurrection!

www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...

This one draws inspiration from various fantasy novels I've been reading lately, about a protagonist who is transported to another time or world, often finding themselves in a new body.

Oh today I learned my favourite Robin is from HTV not BBC. Have you seen the RPG in the works at Osprey? www.ospreypublishing.com/uk/hooded-ma...

We can’t let the market decide what we remember and forget Emily Friedman and Evan Torner on why gaming histories matter.

Reshare: Even as TSR and D&D’s early periods receive the gold-standard treatment, there’s much more to the hobby than one game and one company. But are those histories actually important? What is at stake if we forget them?
