The RPGPundit

 Whether as a DM or a game designer, you get told by "experts" that "game balance" is important. That's wrong; balance will almost always make for a worse experience.

 The history of rpgnet's slide into irrelevance and complete tyranny. And the virtue of a free-speech alternative (therpgsite)!

 After a bunch of social media posts and videos asking "could you play D&D with a Trump supporter?", I've decided to talk about the other side of the argument. And watch the end, where I talk about the real problem: a leftist DM!

 DnD magic is just fine, if you're playing in "D&D world". For any other world, it is a barrier to emulation. OSR TTRPGs with settings/genres different from "D&D world" need to adjust accordingly.

 This Sunday, 9pm Eastern time, its Ep4 of "The RPGPundit Encounter"!

This time I'll be interviewing The Evil DM, a long-time blogger, youtuber and podcaster in the industry. We'll be talking about the events of the day and answering your questions! Don't miss it!

 Of the various websites and social media apps that people use to talk about D&D, I make my pitch for what I think is the best one.

Some recent reports claim the 2024 D&D PHB has sold more than the 5e PHB. Others are claiming the book has barely sold! But hardly anyone noticed how gaming media got its facts wrong. I explain it here. #dnd5e #OneDnD
