It is a little disheartening, as I got my copies of Fantasy Age 2e and Dragonbane in the mail in the last week. I was eager to try those out. I really want to run a long-term #FantasyAGE game. I may need to look for players for that.
Gawd, I really don't want to look for a new gaming group in #LNK. Trying to find a group that will actually take a new player (even a GM) is like pulling team. The local gaming scene feels so insular.

Me: Look at all these cool #TTRPGs out there! There's Fantasy AGE, Genesys, Star Wars, Star Trek, Cyberpunk, Paranoia...
Gaming Group: NO! We don't want new rules/genres! Only D&D!
My spirit, deflated.

I will give them credit. I did introduce them to #Genesys via Android: Shadow of the Beanstalk and #Alien RPG. They enjoyed them. But the Genesys funky dice are hard for them to grok (I get it). And they love fantasy first.
I tried.

Update on the Renegade Game Studios situation: looks like they sat down with The Polyhedral Knights about "Renegade City", and they have come to an amicable agreement. I am glad they did (though maybe they should have done this first instead of the C&D.

Every day, I find new reasons not to support game companies because they are being dickheads to others: WotC, Renegade Game Studios, etc. Y'all make great products and make money. But somehow that isn't enough. You got to be bullies to customers and competitors. If you can't be decent and ethical, you get zero $$$ from me. Period.
