What did you do?

Is there a link to the video? My device isnt loading any in the article.

IMO the worst part is the ads that auto-scroll you to the top of the page after you’ve spent two minutes reading

Youtube video of Rocky Stoutenburgh, the player mentioned in the article, going over how he uses the controller.

If you haven’t played 3 you absolutely should! I enjoy the first two games a lot but the third is something special.

I found it at a retro store when I was in college. I was collecting NES games at the time and would buy anything with “dragon” in the name. Definitely worth the price, though getting it for free sounds great!

Is it dishonorable for an Owl to strike down a mouse, snatching it before it has any chance to react? I would say no. You could see the tactics of a Klingon Bird of Prey in the same way.

I got stuck on the same spot every single time I tried to make dnd work for my group. What finally worked for us was tokens. You dont have to go out and buy expensive miniatures - we use pennies, parts from other boardgames, coasters to represent area effects like guardian of faith, extra dice etc etc. The one other thing you need is a grid board. Someone in my group had one so we lucked out but I see them online for $20 to $30. Knowing where everyone is, how far you can move, who is gonna be hit by that cone of cold etc etc took off so much of the mental load and let us go back to having fun. You may already be doing this or it might not be right for your group but it helped us immensely.

The grid we use is dry erasable so we draw the battle map on there. We also use the markers on the pennies so we know the red marked one is the fire guy and so on. If you have any questions about this style of play lmk.

I have definitely blinded a fair share of people (and goblins) haha. Didn’t work so well when I tried to use it on a beholder and forgot the whole “anti-magic field” thing

Wow yeah that seems amazing for third level. I know I read it before but I didn’t realize it moves with me…

Awesome post and site! Excited to read your other articles.

Wow! Its exactly like having the arcade in your living room!

I came here to suggest Cathode Ray Dude, glad to see him mentioned. Fantastic, high-quality channel.

That looks really cool! The dark helps with the transparency and really makes the little guy look like he’s floating.

I love the idea of walking in, leaning close to the banana flavor, and turning around and walking out because its too yellow.

Chaos is defeated!!! You’ve got a lot more adventures ahead.

Now you just need to get the CD and your genesis will be complete!

Your second link, the women’s march one, is basically an exact match.

Fascinating article, thank you for posting this. Very different from the style of monks I’m used to seeing - the idea of being a monk for anything less than the rest of your life is unusual to me. Seems like it could definitely have an impact on many 20 year olds.

It always fascinates me how much games on a given system can improve without getting better hardware. I’ve played a decent amount of 2600 games and its hard to believe those California Games screenshots. Comparing to other games likes Yars Revenge, Adventure, or River Raid it looks much more true to life. Well as true to life as a system that can’t do circles can get!
