pickAn interesting read, with funny asides between Volo and Elminster. Some really creepy illustrations; well done!

I‘m pretty sure that last sentence should say “the most INSULATED level of the pyramid” rather than “the most insulted” 🤣
pickGreat story of D&Ds history and hownit has evolved over the years to become one of the most widely played tabletop games. Woth a good bit of lived experience from the author sprinkled throughout.
pickThis was a fun collection of bits and bobs. I found a bunch of neat spells that of COURSE my current character (a Cleric) can‘t actually use 😂 Also liked Xanathar‘s asides and the disclaimer on the copyright page.
A side by side comparison of the three films. https://youtu.be/_2mmlIe8u4M?si=MlGMARPEN_knHScY
Finished making my personal storygraph trackers for #frozensick and #frigidwoe .
so-soD&D truly changed the world of strategy and RPG games. Unfortunately, the tale behind its creation was not as exciting as it had been billed to me. I felt this book was a textbook-like retelling of facts to include annual sales numbers. The game‘s very slow build from mocked fantasy game to cultural icon is interesting. Overall though I just felt like something was missing…like any type of connection to the creators.
so-soI am finally able to review this! I‘ve been running the campaign for close to two years now and we‘re going into the finale in July (which is not in the book). I replaced the Icewind Dale setting with Eiselcross from Wildmount. Nothing major was changed but I thought I‘d mention it.
