Yes, come discover The Shithole! In the Gonzo OSR world of the Last Sun, it's the most awful place of a bunch of awful places. A wasteland populated by rival mutant tribes desperate to survive, terrible poisoned swamps with hideous monstrosities, mysterious but deadly artifacts and remnants of the Pythian Knights and of the Dark Ones (who fought their apocalyptic battle here in this very place at the time of the Great Disaster) and godless sects.

Whether your PCs are trapped in the Shithole and trying to find a way out through the wall of mountains built to keep its horrors in, or they've gone into the Shithole in search of impossible Ancient Tech, or to look for the legendary Lost City of Tijuana (and its immortal King Keith I), or because they're working with the Sloth Cartel in a smuggling operation out of the Shithole, or even if they're trying to go down into the dark pit at the core of the Shithole, RPGPundit Presents #59: The Shithole (https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/261847/RPGPundit-Presents-59-The-Shithole) will provide ample life & death challenges for your OSR player characters!

OK, that's different.....
The name says it all. It's not a great place to be, so you want to get in and out as quickly as possible; but can you?
Reading the thread title made me think Pundit was renaming The RPGPundit's Own Forum.:p
My mind is rapidly trying to write the lyrics to a wierd al yankovic 'welcome to the shithole' based on a popular guns'n'roses song....
Thankfully, it starts out "we've got fun and games..." so thats still appropriate...
I agree with HappyDaze that I thought a change to the name of the forum was coming.
I'm sure I'm not the first person to accidently pronounce it theRPGShyte....

Welcome to the shithole,
We've got lots of shit;
But this place doesn't suck as bad,
As RPG.net!!!
Laugh it up, guys!
But yes, the Shithole is meant to be a super-dangerous environment that PCs want to get out of as quickly as they can manage.

Almost like heading for the entrance to one dungeon and wrong-holing into another?

Take a chance, they said. Be adventurous, they said. You might like it, they said!
Of course, especially bad-ass adventurers might just decide they want to be kings of the garbage dump.
