    Help For a Budding DM: How can I tame my players?

    While I very much agree, that any role-playing game(or game at all) should be about the fun, it isn?t just the players that should be having that fun. The DM should be enjoying himself too. I think you need to have a talk with your players about expectations (yours and theirs) to the game...

    Study Finds "Moral Learning" is Disrupted by Violent Games

    Yeah, but that was not what this study was saying. It was actually saying the opposite. (well..yeah..kinda). I have no problem with people calling bullshit on a bogus study, but in my mind this just wasn?t the case here. I seemed like solid research. (All though I will add, that since the method...

    Study Finds "Moral Learning" is Disrupted by Violent Games

    Okay, a lot of you guys actually managed to piss me off. The observation above should explain why. I?m going to try and be civil, but some of you really need to wake up and smell the coffee. Here is a study (a study, not a divine decree of universal truth) that suggest that: Children who...

    Getting into Discworld

    Pretty cool guide, Rylot. Seems pretty accurate as far as the storylines go. Personally, I'm working my way through them chronologically(currently just finished Jingo). Once tried it otherwise, but kept feeling like I was missing out on a some of the inside jokes and character development...

    Name one character from any medium that pisses you off, and describe how you would beat them.

    Seth (Jonah Hill) from Superbad. He was so irredeemably selfish and annoying. Yeah I know, that was kinda the point of the character, but he pretty much ruined the movie for me. Probably just flick his ear, every time he opens his mouth.

    Example Female Characters you think qualify as good/strong/etc (with reasons)

    Hell yeah! That will teach those foul femme fatales. Cover your ankles, harlot! No but seriously, I?m not saying that women can?t be portrayed in sexy outfits in games (or movies, or comics, or anything). But THAT outfit on THAT character was just too much for me. And I actually kinda think...

    Example Female Characters you think qualify as good/strong/etc (with reasons)

    Morrigan from Dragon Age:Origins Strong, decisive and still feminine. Had they Given her some decent clothes and forgot about the whole ?Have sex=Get Achievement LOL? thing, she could have been a VERY strong character, instead of just masturbation material.

    Has a game ever made you cry?

    I?ll just start by saying, that making my eyes water is no great feat. Movies and television especially, has an ability to screw with me. If I like a character, make them go through hardship(or even sometimes resolution) and queue the right music, and you´ll hear mw quietly sniffing and trying...
