Some RPG publishers are talking about a thorny issue again – supporting international backers on Kickstarter projects.

In Destiny 1 there are three PC races – humans and the awakened (who were once human) and the robots who became sentient know as Exo. Disclosure – my spiky purple pineapple of a Titan is an Exo but I can’t put help notice the race isn’t that common. Is that because they lack flesh? […]

Robin Wright was excellent as Antiope… as she was as Princess Buttercup. We can all be clear on whom would be saving whom in The Princess Bride if Antiope […]
