Edition Wars: The Cut Line - Nerdcognito Episode 297
Inspired by a question posed by the Nerdcognito Nation this past weekend on the Saturday Speakeasy, the gang decides if, and when, they would have "halted" edition progression in D&D. System nuance and personal preferences all get discussed about this fictional grand choice that could be made for the good of the hobby. ***Be a Check Mark Hero:https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=VREXR2J3E6GGA***Episode Sponsors and AffiliatesWe earn a small commission for each purchase at no additional cost to you!

The internet and weak progressive culture never cease to amaze. This week, we tear through a list of "controversial" monsters that some want re-imagined for modern audiences or even outright eliminated.

This week, after playing a "filthy storygame" (and having a good time, which is WHY we game in the first place), the Nerdcognito crew digs deep into storygames and discusses their place and setting at your tabletop roleplaying table. It ain't D&D, by design. ***Be a Check Mark Hero:https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=VREXR2J3E6GGA***Episode Sponsors and AffiliatesWe earn a small commission for each purchase at no additional cost to you!
