I have a small handful of polls that creep back into my consciousness every year or two and the few that I’ve done multiple times before have been very enlightening. On that note I’m bringing back a poll that I last ran in March of 2008…
Inq. of the Week: Tiers of Play?
Dave and I both started running 4th Edition D&D campaigns when the system was released, now over a year later Dave’s game is solidly into the paragon tier while mine looks to be entering paragon in the next few weeks.
Inq. of the Week: Cataclysm?
This passed weekend was Blizzcon ’09 which came with a slew of new announcements from everyone’s favorite delayed publishing game company. (Yes, I’m still bitter about Starcraft: Ghost – No, I will not let it go until StarCraft 2 actually comes out.) Chief among the announcements was the third expansion for World of Warcraft which is called Cataclysm, and looks to offer a huge overhaul to the entire game and the world it takes place in.
Inq. of the Week: Non-RPG Content?
Well voting for the ENnies closed over the weekend, first and foremost I’d like to extend our thanks and appreciation to everyone who voted for us! No matter what you ranked our site compared to the others, they all help and hopefully we will be pleasantly surprised at the ceremony during GenCon.
Inq. of the Week: Sources of Power?
Just before the Player’s Handbook 2 was released back in March I wrote an inquisition asking which power source people most wanted to see in the PHB3, the source that won the poll was psionics so it seems the PHB3 is shaping up to meet a lot of expectations already but unfortunately shortly afterward we discovered that WotC has abandoned the Ki power source concept which came in second in the poll.
Inq. of the Week: How Caffeinated?
We’ve had a lot of Origins 2009 coverage over the last week, and on Saturday celebrating the 4th of July Dave and I realized that GenCon is only a few weeks away. This realization makes me ponder what keeps me going through such hectic times, and more often than not the answer always comes back to caffeine. I’ve been a huge soda fiend since middle school, and even though my day job has stopped buying soda but still provides coffee, I just can’t bear switching over!
Inq. of the Week: Quinto vs. Quinto
A while back, over two years ago it seems, we had an epic showdown Inquisition between Ian McKellen and Ian McKellen…errr, I mean between Gandalf the White and Magneto! The mysterious White Wizard ending up kicking considerable ass in the poll, but it generated some interesting debate about who would actually win in a fight.
Inq. of the Week: Opinions of E3 2009?
For the past week I’ve been hearing faint whispers around the edges of my radar about E3 going on, but it feels like this year everything is far more muted than it has been in previous years. The only thing that I’ve really heard a lot of excitement about is the new Star Wars: The Old Republic trailer, which does look extremely badass and the changes to the MMO style really intrigue me.
Inq. of the Week: Age of Roleplaying?
This week I’ve been thinking about something that I don’t believe we have touched on yet, and that’s at what age people start playing RPGs. I’ve heard from quite a few people that are new to D&D with 4th edition from various ages, but even just yesterday I ran my D&D game with a player who had not played since 2nd edition many years ago and is now trying it out again.
Inq. of the Week: Roleplaying with Minis?
As I mulled over some topics on boardgames, my mind was still wandering back to the D&D game I ran on Saturday, so today we have a topic that spans between D&D and boardgames!
