Dungeons & Dragons

Is this still cool?
Do people still play this?

Personally I've been gaming for years, approx. 8-12 hours every Friday night

  • Our party started from some of the Glen Cook novel's regarding the Black Company. The series (around 10 books) was quite a good adventure, if I say so myself!
    In about 3 years we almost got halfway through the first book. It's rather slow going!

    Recently we've delved into the Greyhawk campaign, one of Gary Gygax's first and more successful "campaigns". We're working on turning it into a novel of our own actually. A spinoff, if you will.

    Edit:
    A highly recommended imaginative simulation of violence, treachery and debauchery.
    Depending on how good of a story teller your DM is, of course. You can get as detailed and bloodthirsty, or as vague and mysterious, as necessary.
    There's so much f***ing detail in these games, it's crazy.

    The way it went, Gygax decided (after some playthrough) to make Greyhawk an actual game. He added where he started off, and a thousand years of history before it.
    Then he said "play" Slight smile The rest is up to the players and the DM. My Greyhawk campaign is totally different from Gygax's, but it's the exact same time, same place, same major characters.

    Quite interesting.

    I have a blast, I must say. Smiley
