The problem with this article is that it’s all circumstantial. Sure these are people complaining of problems and critiques, but we’ll never get the full report of how many returns there actually are and why they were returned. That’s just not data Apple will ever give out.
So they just let anyone write opinion pieces now?
Can you imagine spending all that money on a car and expecting certain features, only for them to change based on the whims of a manchild who gets his feelings hurt?
I bought wireless headphones about 4 years ago and haven’t used wired since. Even when playing through speakers, in my car, and all that I just use Bluetooth.
All of politics is PR. But you have to consider our US politics not on a global scale, but on a local one. These unions aren’t going to say “you’re not far left enough for us to support.” Just like pretty much everyone else who votes non-Republican, they’re going to vote for whoever matches their ideology the closest, even if it’s not as close as we’d like it to be.
Power. The moment they retire they give up the ability to control people’s lives.
We use discord. My group is actually about 4 groups connected together with overlapping players, so it’s a place we can all congregate virtually. We have a channel for scheduling, ones for in-game content, and some for just messing around.
TWIT is also my go to. Haven’t missed an episode for over a decade. Used to watch Leo on Tech TV. A veteran of the industry that still keeps current, and he also is always bringing in younger guests and specialists to fill gaps and add different perspectives.
Absolutely. His podcast, Lazy RPG Podcast, is great. Every other episode is his prepping for an upcoming session, going through the steps of the Lazy DM.
He broke the glass and tried to open the door from the inside. If I were inside that house, I’d certainly feel threatened.
Could not agree more, and just came there to say this.
I work at a small retail store with an online shop. Multiple times we’ve had parents call us to cancel online orders where their kids purchased something using their parent’s stored credit card info. Those things really should be locked behind a password.
Seconded for ICRPG. The way it handles exploration and the whole tension die thing is great.
Thanks for putting another system on my radar. This looks awesome!
I’m shooting for a combination of the 2 kind of. Think spaced out hexes with montages linking them together. It’s the transition between the 2 that I’m having a hard time with. Maybe looking at games like Fellowship that really specialize in this sort of gameplay for inspiration could be helpful!
This aspect is really close to what I’m trying to accomplish. Zoom in on some action, then montage the travel until they hit another focus point. But you’re advice of prompting something of interest and letting them lead into the focus scene is take neat!
The campaign and system are all about traveling though dangerous lands from point to point, exploring along the way and staying alive. I think maybe though I’ve put too much emphasis on the points if interest and not enough thought into the travel in between. Possibly this is because there’s built-in pressure to do this as quickly (and sure, safely) as possible, so I never really thought about them actually doing things when they don’t need to slow down and fight/explore.
Hmm … Maybe doing the “who’s scouting” and prompts like that can be a good lead in and out of these obstacles where things speed up and slow down!
We’ll never know. This is all based on people’s complaints online. Apple will never actually release how many were returned and for what reasons.
