Whither Reddit? In the meantime, here’s a place to chat up old school revival (OSR) and new school revolution (NSR) style TTRPGs.

My name is Todd aka Hexed Press and I am the current caretaker (have I always been the caretaker?). Here are some other places to find me, if you are so inclined:

I wouldn't count too hard on a reprint of Mellified Mage since it has a canceled person's adventure in it. Free League have never officially commented that they care about cancellations, but it's been sold out for so long now, and whenever it's asked in the chat on their monthly livestreams all they'll admit to is that there's "no current plans" to do either a VTT module of it, or a reprint.

A cancelled person? What does that mean?

[–] GrumblingGM@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Adam Koebel who became infamous when

spoilerhe decided to enact a robot sa scene during a live stream with one of his players as a victim
. Any new project he works on in the TTRPG sphere ends up quickly canceled so a reprint of Mellified Mage might not be worth the fuss to Free League.

Jesus, im usually for almost anything in my games. went and watched this clip and that was just fucking weird.

I wasn't even aware of that - I doubt that this would be relevant to free league, but I only scratched the surface of the issue. Thank you for enlightening me, though.

A few years ago some kind of manager or director of tabletop gaming projects at Kickstarter lost his job because he greenlit a project that Koebel was working on, so yeah, anyone trying to print something the guy's name is on is playing Russian Roulette.

(that guy losing his job is also what resulted in Zine Quest being canceled the year after btw, because that guy was running it as a pet project)

They read 1984 one 2 many times?

Then again it might have been Animal Farm?
