Internet News is All Wrong
Why is internet news so bad, why do people prefer celebrity fluff, and how could it be made better?
Free Radical
The product of fandom run unchecked, this novel began as a short story and grew into something of a cult hit.
Black Desert Online
This Korean title would be the greatest MMO ever made if not for the horrendous monetization system. And the embarrassing translation. And the terrible progression. And the developer's general apathy towards its western audience.
Fable II

But seriously, the DM is being unreasonable here. You can’t tell your players “This is the guy who created all your problems, and also the only tool at your disposal is violence” and then expect them to politely listen to his nonsense monologue. Even within the role they’re playing, they would want to kill the enemy general after his army was defeated, not politely let him rally so he can throw more disposable waves of minions later on.

Not entirely, though, since in this version the PCs also killed Gollum.
