Then I decided to create my own three part adventure and DM that, which went well and we learnt a bit more about what we like (less combat than I put in). Now we have one friend running his own mini-adventure whilst I have begun preparing a proper campaign. Does anyone have any advice for making plans for a full on campaign? I'm making various different quest hooks and designing a a town and a dungeon just for the beginning.

Comment on Assassin's Creed Odyssey confirmed in ~games
Bobbings LinkI'm going to guess this'll be an ancient greece one then. I studied classics at my posh school so I love this new direction for the series since origins. Unfortunately I haven't played origins yet...I'm going to guess this'll be an ancient greece one then. I studied classics at my posh school so I love this new direction for the series since origins. Unfortunately I haven't played origins yet and will wait until it is £10 or less on a steam sale, because I refuse to pay new game prices. I'm guessing there will be a fair bit of sailing to different parts of greece, so that should spread it out quite nicely.

Comment on Daily Tildes discussion - on civility, political content, and over-extrapolating in ~tildes.official

While this isn't a problem for the majority of the site it is something that always annoys me as I am from the UK. On reddit I have every single mention of trump filtered using RES.
On reddit r/unitedkingdom is just as bad, at some point it transitioned into constant moaning about brexit. Politics has a habit of completely dominating discussion everywhere on a site. In an ideal world I would just ban political discussion outright, because it becomes one sided and fostering equal political discussion seems almost impossible, because it becomes two separate one sided arguments, where everyone shouts their opinion at each other and nothing good comes from it.
It boils down to the reddit hive mind, and it can leave people feeling left out, or in my case complete apathy to the whole thing. Sorry I don't have a better solution to politics, but my opinion is ban it out right, at least until a good solution can be reached.
Tyranny was really good, a little on the short side but they actively encourage replays. You probably know this but its very similar to pillars of eternity, and made by the same people, so if you liked PoE then you'll like tyranny.
