"...and there was a schism within Judge's Guild where some of the original members said some really racist things online... OH NICE A RIBBON!" Made me laugh. Also, great review.
I don't know who owns the rights to the City State of the Invincible Overlord, but man, I'd love to see Goodman Games give that stuff the OAR treatment.
Thanks for this unboxing. I was really on fence about this box set. Not sure when I'd ever run it, but MAN! I think it's a need, not a want for me. Thanks for sharing this
Happy birthday, and thank you for sharing this gorgeous effort to keep our hobby's history alive and current. Good on Goodman! Oh, and given your killer ominous voiceover skills, I'm gonna need a daily posting of you reading something out of the book. 😆
Oh man. This is one I really want to pick up, but I haven't been able to talk myself into it (or pry open my wallet). I still need to pick up a copy of module #100, though. Gotta start walking more dogs.
Not sure. The timing on this is rotten, which is part of many reasons why people are upset. And now he has been nominated for EnNies, further pissing people off. He has never taken real responsibility for the situation. He needs to hire a public relations specialist if he expects any future in the hobby. It seems like he's thinking people are just going to give him a pass on this. If he does, he is gravely mistaken. In my opinion, Justin's writing seems to show a guy who is a little full of himself, and that is affecting his decision-making. Unpopular opinion: "RPG famous" is not "famous." People will remember his disenfranchising of a historical luminary in the hobby way more than they will remember his writing.
Hello RPG Imaginings! I've been excited to check this out, specifically the DCC version! Upon opening the original book, its upsetting to see Alexander as the first to put in his 2 cents worth, but then again it also brings up the opportunity to recall his true intention. I feel its important when understanding Jennell Jaquays's influence on our hobby, that we also hear about that guy trying to take credit for her work. Thank you for speaking out & saying what needed to be said. Much respect to you. 3D6 Down the Line!
Thanks for this, just got my set and was confused why the spines didn’t match like in the mockups. I was thinking I was crazy, appreciate the confirmation 🤙
Yeah, that's part of the reason why I do this. Our tastes are niche and there aren't a lot of Channels (sadly) showcasing a lot of stuff. Thanks for watching!
Yep. How about you? I expressed an opinion about the idiot move of a game designer that seems to think he's above accountability and is well known for having a pretty fat head. A real small fish in a big pond, all things considered. Do you think people are above accountability? Do you think it's right to take credit for what other people are known for after they die? Think carefully before you answer. This attitude among gamers that game designers aren't accountable for their words or actions is bullshit. Hell, you're trying to hold ME accountable for something I say in a recreational video, but a game designer is perfectly fine for a brazen attempt at mis-crediting ideas?
@@CScott-wh5yk Yep, I get it. People aren't allowed to express opinions on the internet you don't like. Bonkers to do so. And yet...I am doing so. And you can't stop me. Uh oh! Sarcasm aside, I'm allowed to be expressive in my videos and you're allowed to not watch if you don't like them. My format isn't going to change. My energy isn't going to change. So, if you don't like those things (perfectly fine), just don't watch. You not watching is a far better use of everyone's time than you taking the time to whine about what you don't like.

This quote fully encapsulates the kind of reckless, aggressive, joyful nerdery you will find here. We gotta see the forest for the trees. ;)
This set is fantastic. Might be the best thing I've ever backed via KS. Can't wait to play it over the summer.

Right?
Got mine last week!

Didn't Jenell herself ask Justin Alexander to change it, or did I get that wrong?

Why did I not know it was your birthday? Why is your birthday not on my calendar? Why do I have so many questions?
Someone seems to have gotten out of bed on the wrong side today. Anyone else you want to have a snark at while you're at it?

Alexander is a complete shit for trying to take credit for someone else's creation. Lot's of people gave this guy the crap he deserved for this.
@@RPGImaginingsYou sound crazy.
