Way too late to the party on this one, but considering the CEO of Hasbro keep talking about using AI, y'all artists should stay the fuck away from WoTC on this stuff Yes, MTG and DnD hold special places in many people's hearts, but I wouldn't trust the company with art when their CEO is an AI chud.

"The healers had it easiest. There's always disease and broken bones and cuts to treat. The squad mages less-so. Some wind mages found their way to fishing villages or ports - ensuring favourable winds for seafarers. Even the fire specialists found work in forges and smithies...

Did you know that in Irish mythology the Tuatha De Danaan had four great cities? Falias, Gorias, Finias, and Murias Tír Nascath once also had four great cities: Céad Darach, the First Oak; Darach Nua, the New Oak; Rath Badb, the Fort of Badb; and Bailey Dé, God's Home. #dnd #ttrpg #ireland

Picked up the MegaMan battle network collection on switch. I remember playing the old GBA version of 1 years ago, and I'm having a blast... most of the time.

Thoroughly encourage folks to check these #TTRPG tiny worlds. I entered the #tinyworldjam but quickly found the scope of my setting went beyond "Tiny" - I would have persisted, but personal time and motivation issues ensued and I won't get it done in time for the end of the jam.

Went in to watching Paradise on Disney+ completely without reading anything more than the most basic blurb. I wasnt expecting this, and I kind of like it.

Got carried away with this Micro Setting #ttrpg jam, and seem to be working my way to a Substantial Setting. Time to turn on the shrink ray and turn these paragraphs into snappy one liners! (or as close to snappy as I can manage)

Doing a #ttrpg micro setting jam on itch.io and the first thing I got to thinking about was what does a setting need? A story, sure, but a lore dump isnt it. We need NPCs, factions, things that drive stories and create hooks players want to explore, right?

The amazing part isn’t just the wrong answer, but that the explanation it gives is accurate — and it simply doesn’t know that 27 is a smaller number than 32. Billions of dollars spent to make a black box machine that doesn’t know something elementary school kids know.

Mr. Bitcoin: According to ChatGPT... Me: I. Don't. CARE. ChatGPT doesn't KNOW anything. It's not smart. Him: Tim Allen disagreeing noises Me: All it does is find words most often associated with each other and spit out something that LOOKS like an answer. Him: But it is right. Me: I give up.

"Spamming the middle button on the overpriced auto-correct machine spouts out bollocks." Is only surprising in how often it surprises people, and how it hasnt immediately caused this tech bubble to violently implode let alone simply burst.
