So 5e has an OGL and SRD and... The DM Guild...

So if you have not heard the news, WoTC has finally come out with their plan to have 5e conquer the gaming universe! Frankly I am very excited and have already begun laying down plans. Of course I realize this takes away from my own fully original designs (Pommels as well as EODL) but this is a marathon, not a race. So it looks like I will be taking advantage of both avenues to purse rpg publishing for 5e.

Stay tuned...

Subversive Game Design

So I have recently been doing some thinking about who I want to be as a game designer. I wan to subvert ideas, not start a revolution. I want to create compelling settings that do not rely on orcs for their common denominator. I do not want to get rid of tropes as much as I want you, the player, to question the tropes.

Now the real trick is to turn it into something concrete.
