If you want photorealism, get a camera. Where we’re going, we don’t need correct proportions.
“THE NON-ARTIST FIXATION ON HYPERREALISM AS THE PINNACLE OF ART IS CLEARLY PART OF THE REASON SO MANY ADULTS THINK THEY CANNOT DRAW OR CONSIDER THEMSELVES TO BE FAILURES, KAWAII, FOLK ART, DOODLES, OR OTHER EASIER ENTRY POINTS ARE CONSIDERED CHILDISH, WHICH IS WHY JAPANESE DRAWING BOOKS ARE BETTER…”

Tip for newer homebrewers: nothing is free. Using art you found with a Google search isn’t kosher. Commissions and stock art purchases are the only way you can guarantee legitimate operations
This isn't a thing in any creative circles, ever. The only time you don't need to talk to an artist about using their work in your publication is if you buy their stock art, which comes with a license that covers a conversation about rights, usage. This person's explanation is extra ripe bullshit.

A comment on itch reminded me of this idea for creating #TTRPG dungeons I had a while back. I still think its neat and I don't think I've actually shared it here on bsky.

Look what they did to Notepad. Shut the fuck up. This is Notepad. You are not welcome here. Oh yeah "Let me use Copilot for Notepad". "I'm going to sign into my account for Notepad". What the fuck are you talking about. It's Notepad.

One issue I see a lot of new RPG scenario writers stumble with is the hesitation to embrace tropes or use pre-existing media as blatant inspiration. Don't be so eager to be an innovator that you refuse to travel down beaten paths. My favorite adventures are littered with these moments.

Roll20, which owns DriveThruRPG, told Rebel Scum's designer (@9thlevelgames.bsky.social) that allowing their "hateful content" and political speech on its platform constituted a "slippery slope."

We have removed all of our content from DriveThruRPG.
Choosing to be 'apolitical' rather than standing with an antifascist creator is a crazy move.
@9thlevelgames.bsky.social have this as their pinned post. These are creators we feel proud to stand by.

I’ve only been watching TTRPG news maybe once or twice a week, so I’m kinda getting an outside perspective for the first time in a while. One of the things sticking out is Daggerheart’s success being used to indicate WotC’s death. A healthy competitor isn’t a death sentence, it’s just a threat.

I stole the idea from @loottheroom.bsky.social and made a blog where I create PCs for the games I have in my bookshelf and write through the process. It's gonna be quick, unedited and raw but hopefully entertaining and/or informative. First up: Frontier Scum.

The compulsion some crusty fucks have to constantly comment on EVERY video about a thing they don’t like is a symptom of misery. If you find yourself obsessing over media you don’t like, seek happiness and try to actively work on your joy.
