  • While it’s a core belief of Abrahamic monotheist that there is no god but Gods practically speaking some people kept some traditionul/pagan belief. I think obviously about some Africans doing their own mix, but even in Europe, tons of Pagan belief stay around, stuff like knocking on woodor having a Christmas tree, let alone various form of witchcraft which are also illegal for Christians but quite common, no matter whether it’s an old man reading runes or a teen girl praying the moon because it looks cool on TikTok











  • Sure maps and miniatures are fun but some systems don’t need them, some players are perfectly fine with the theatre of the mind play, or some small toys on a self drawn grid on sheet paper can work.

    Some big streamers have done massive damage to she hobby by bringing the image that map and miniatures are necessary, and not at best a nice to have, at worst a distraction.

    Sure I use sometimes a sketch on paper, but very rarely miniatures, and never accurate ones. Role-playing game isn’t about miniatures


  • For Rpg : let the player take the initiative and bring their plot to the table. If they preptge game for you, it’s les work as aGM (also no doodle scheduling, use fix dates)

    For paragliding : if there is nobody on a flight site do not take off. Most likely you misunderstood something, and the site isn’t flyable. Sure if you re very experienced, do hike and fly or do fly on a week day on a small site, it may not apply, but you’re able to analyse by yourself


  • Je suis partagé là dessus,

    D’un coté, ça a un coté “cérémonie à l’américaine”, et les "doyens"et “directeurs de master” ont d’autres chats à fouetter que de passer 2h à faire un discours, puis avoir les majors de promos qui montent sur l’estrade pour faire le leurs. de mon temps on avait les résultats par voie d’affichage, puis on allait chercher un relevé de note à la scolarité en attendant le diplome définitif 2 ans plus tard.

    De l’autre coté, pour des jeunes de 18, 20 voire 25 ans un diplôme, c’est le plus gros achievement de leurs vie, et un truc qui va avoir des conséquences de fous sur leur vie future. Avoir un moment Solonnel et un peu formel pour ça, je comprends le besoin, que ce soit pour le bac qui marque l’entrée dans la vie d’adulte ou les diplômes universitaires. C’est un truc qui plait aussi bien au vieux réacs de droites, même ceux nostalgique du service militaire qu’à pas mal de jeunes qui ont envie de marquer le coups.











  • Out of curiosity.

    How many of you do regularly have traditional style dungeon. I mean, everything can be seen as a dungeon Even the quest of the A38 Pass. But infiltrating the Caste of Lord and Lady Evildoer to find-out the evil ritual room hidden behind the ballroom is already kinda different from the traditional dungeon.

    And the other question, How many of you use battle-map, and need stuff more details than at best a sketch on a white board.

    Because I am always surpised there is such a market for this kind of tiles, I feel like it’s the kind of stuff you need once every few years, not the kind of stuff average group use at half of the session.
