So much for going back to playing Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games again. After a couple of weeks of delving back into the MMORPG scene, while taking a break from playing solo tabletop roleplaying games, I realized something rather profound: TTRPGs are just superior to MMORPGs. They simply are. Now I know, this is probably […]

Too Good To Be True
So the Oregon Renaissance Faire has been cancelled for 2021. I should have known this would happen, to be honest.

Resolved, and yet not resolved
So I finally found a reasonably-priced copy of “Shadowrun” 2nd edition, to replace my original copy, that is effectively worn out.
