Why do we love RPGs?

June 13, 2019 By Paul Bellow

New guest post by Edwin McRae! I am going to put this to you. What if it’s about the gods? Yes, Aphrodite and Zeus, Thor and Odin. I’m speaking from a strictly western perspective and those are the two pantheons that arise in games time and again. Greek and Norse. These are the examples I’m going to draw on but there are many other divine influences besides them. They’re just the ones that tend to pop up in video … [Read more...] about Why do we love RPGs?

Best D&D Books with Rogues

December 16, 2018 By Paul Bellow

D&D novels with rogues

The rogue is one of the building blocks of a good D&D party. They can sneak, disarm traps, pick locks, and take care of many of those pesky social checks that crop up when you're out of combat. While most forms of media have great examples of rogues, some of the best exemplars of the class you'll find are in Dungeons and Dragons novels. The best of the best not only reinforce the knowledge players get from … [Read more...] about Best D&D Books with Rogues

D&D Editions: Dungeons & Dragons Red Box Basic Set (1977-1995)

October 7, 2018 By Paul Bellow

If you look at the current version of Dungeons and Dragons, you'll notice that it's labeled Fifth Edition. While it's clear that the preceding edition was Fourth Edition and that the version before that was the Third Edition, figuring out the Second Edition is a bit tougher. OD&D is certainly D&D first edition, but there were two competing iterations of the game between OD&D and Third Edition. While … [Read more...] about D&D Editions: Dungeons & Dragons Red Box Basic Set (1977-1995)

RPG Legends: Link and Zelda

May 27, 2018 By Paul Bellow

Legend of Zelda RPG

While Final Fantasy is often thought of as the game that introduced RPGs to North America, the truth is that another title did so first. The Legend of Zelda might not be a classic JRPG, but most of the Action-RPG genre owes a huge debt to the game. From overworlds filled with dungeons to the reliance on tools to open up new areas of the map, there are few third-person games that don't crib something from the … [Read more...] about RPG Legends: Link and Zelda

What D&D Class Should You Play in 5e?

May 8, 2018 By Paul Bellow

D&D 5th edition

Dungeons and Dragons is a constantly-evolving game. The 5th Edition is a huge return to form after the more video game-inspired 4th Edition, and that means a return to a lot of what has traditionally made Dungeons and Dragons work. With that change has come a huge update in the base classes for the game and, in some cases, how those classes work. If you've never played 5th Edition - or if you've never played a … [Read more...] about What D&D Class Should You Play in 5e?
