| 03.03.14 | A Forbes writer recounts the history of Dungeons & Dragons along with his personal journey with the game. It's very well written and I think exemplifies what made the game fun to play and run for me when I was into it. It's a bit light on the exhaustive year-by-year history of TSR after Gygax's departure in favor of more personal experiences such as his experiment with LARPing and a chapter that feels kind of like an advertorial for Wizards of the Coast (I played AD&D 2E and it got a whole sentence of mention in the book), but for the most part I enjoyed reading it and it made me wish I could dabble again with friends... maybe some day. |
