I begged @RestorationGame to give me the new FIREBALL ISLAND prototype for the show so I could be the first person to see it! Ya know, cause I'm sad like that. The new version is truly amazing. Can't wait to play it... #TheGoldbergs

Designers easily get trapped into fierce taxonomical debates (recently “is The Mind” a game or a social activity?”)
Those debates are fine, I guess, academically. But they bore the life out of me and suck all joy from the creative process.

People die. The pain of such a loss is like no other. It changes us and how we see the world.
For millennia, humans have explored that loss in stories. Even D&D tales face it, and some of the greatest narratives arise from it.
From death new life may come. #CriticalRole #DnD
