haibane.info is a fairly new Anime blog. I just noticed that Fledgling Otaku now has a new design up for the site.
Wow. That looks fantastic.
Self-Balancing Gameplay
There's a wonderful way to balance difficulty in RPGs, and designers try to prevent it. For some reason.
Gamers Aren’t Toxic
This is a horrible narrative that undermines the hobby through crass stereotypes. The hobby is vast, gamers come from all walks of life, and you shouldn't judge ANY group by its worst members.
DM of the Rings
Both a celebration and an evisceration of tabletop roleplaying games, by twisting the Lord of the Rings films into a D&D game.
Twelve Years
Even allegedly smart people can make life-changing blunders that seem very, very obvious in retrospect.
The Best of 2016
My picks for what was important, awesome, or worth talking about in 2016.
Thanks, Shamus – its art from the Haibane Renmei soundtrack that I found scanned in online. I have my own copy in the mail which I’ll rescan to try and improve the quality a bit. I appreciate the link :)
(love the dice. I’ve been gaming since I was 15 – its almost a lost art nowadays…)
