Ordered, thank you! I don't know why but the idea never occurred to me. Excited for some big screen gaming.

How did you connect your steam deck to your tv?

I like the dungeon pieces from this and your other post! We usually just use sharpie and a battlemap. These seem to capture the claustrophobic feel of a dungeon a lot better though.

I had no idea this was rereleased! I was so so angry the first time I watched it. I spent two days ranting and expressing my frustation but slowly that strong emotional reaction turned into the love I now have for the film.

They had that bit advertising birkenstocks as well. It always takes me right out of the movie.

I got stuck on the same spot every single time I tried to make dnd work for my group. What finally worked for us was tokens. You dont have to go out and buy expensive miniatures - we use pennies, parts from other boardgames, coasters to represent area effects like guardian of faith, extra dice etc etc. The one other thing you need is a grid board. Someone in my group had one so we lucked out but I see them online for $20 to $30. Knowing where everyone is, how far you can move, who is gonna be hit by that cone of cold etc etc took off so much of the mental load and let us go back to having fun. You may already be doing this or it might not be right for your group but it helped us immensely.

The grid we use is dry erasable so we draw the battle map on there. We also use the markers on the pennies so we know the red marked one is the fire guy and so on. If you have any questions about this style of play lmk.

Awesome post and site! Excited to read your other articles.

My friends and I in high school spent a lot of days just hanging out. For one reason or another we started playing monopoly off and on as we chatted. As a few weeks went by we quickly realized there was a lot more to the game than meets the eye and our strategies started to develop. We went from just rolling and going with the flow to buying everything we touched and negotiating some intense trade contracts. We moved from there to Catan and Dominion and saw how much more depth there could be. We have all been hooked ever since.

Wow that is awesome! Reminds me of the Citadel in Mass Effect or Boarding Action from the first Halo. Now I need to find some sci-fi to watch...

I've played both and love both, but I would say normal on those games is much easier than normal on Sam. Not sure how the higher difficulties match up.

Siberian Mayhem becuase it got put on game pass, but I know there are a bunch of others.

And yeah I've had like 6 huge ones break through a wall and give me a heart attack. I've definitely learned the value if running.
