I remember when gaming and D&D were niche interests. They got popular, and now look at them. 😩

You can actually find a group that manages to play with some regularity?

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 44 points 10 months ago

No, that's still an issue somehow 🤷🏻‍♂️

"Go to hell is basic. Instead say I hope your DnD group starts to get momentum right at the climax of the campaign, it becomes impossible to get anyone to show up."

Really? For me it's exactly the same as before critroll. "Anyone want to play? Sure I'll DM. See y'all this weekend!"

For gaming I see your point, it looks like everything as to be a money grab nowaday which greatly reduce the quality of a lot of games.

For ttrpg I don't feel like it though. Sure Wizard of the Coast/Hasbro has gone to shit but I left the D&D train a long time ago already. And the amount of other very good and accessible system is amazing. IMO The only thing "bad" that this new popularity bring is players with wrong expectations. Some expect every games and every DM to be of the same quality as Critical Roll or other well known podcast, some exept to find "video games" mechanic like in baldur's gate, some are trying to force the meme stuff inside the game, ect.
