This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Does DCC have the legs to carry on as an AD&D fever dream?

DCC has a really great vibe and I agree that it seems to have staying power. The innovations around patrons and spells really are well-done, as is the way they've gone back to Appendix N. I bought both the Lankhmar and Dying Earth box sets.

The sheer acid gonzo-ness of their adventures is really awesome too.

It took me a while to realize how linear their adventures are and how bloated their explanation text is. It hurt, but I decided to stop buying their adventures.

These strike me as really easy to fix, but with the success they are having I don't know that they have a reason to fix them.
