So I ask of you, cant we just please fetch the old 12gauge from the shed and put an end to this misery of an milked-out carcass of a genre?

 

Forgotten Realms and that stuff is milked-out and basicly have too strict rules, so no room for innovation that would revive that fantasy genre.

not true, FR has lot of potential

 

Yes true.

I wonder if it is the time for resurrection of Planescape.

It's good where it's at, dead and buried.

Hey I havent seen any stories about dwarf monks.
I would like an RPG with gnomes, halflings(hobbits), and Deekin  :D
Yes. Those are both perfect examples of the innovative suckage I was talking about. Thanks for saving me the potential brain damage of having to think specific examples up.

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the galaxy. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips. I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.

Yes I am... ;)

Anyone care to share the formula?

The formula is mind your own business or else you get a nuckle sandwich!

Oh, you want two? Well, don't worry, there's plenty to go around, I made lots, one might even go as far as to say I made a whole fist full.

 

 

Haw, haw, haw, I'm so topical. Am I right fellas? I mean, am I right?

Those who like the fantasy, defend it! Speak up in favour of it!

It's pretty even. Ten to nine against fantasy.

Jorian is a mod, Metadigital is a rocker!

We just want some fantasy geeks to stick their heads out so we can chop them off :)

DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself.

 

Important: as the following sentence contains many naughty words I warn you not to read it under any circumstances; botty, knickers, wee, erogenous zone, psychiatrist, clitoris, stockings, bosom, poetry reading, dentist, fellatio and the department of agriculture.

I love fantasy! There, do what you want! I regret that I have but one head to be chopped off for fantasy!

There's always room for good stuff.

This thread is so topical. Am I right fellas, I mean am I right?

There's always room for good stuff.

Damn straight! There is plenty of room for dwarf ninjas versus gnome pirates!
