Incline Which is better and why: AD&D or AD&D 2nd Edition?

Come on, there's don't need to fight. We are all amicable here.

It is more like a group of people are holding a normal discussion while the increasingly unhinged Mr. Dixon is furiously assaulting a strawman he has mistaken for me with a mop he has mistaken for a weapon. Why stop him? It is funny.

Why the projection there Melanhead? You made comments about an area of the country without any proof it happened which is a strawman. You also lied about the rules for both 1E and 2E that you have yet to address in my post showing you lied with the actual rules. Can you not read and comprehend English?

The only person here that is unhinged is you. You keep spreading lies then you run from the facts when you are confronted by them. In fact, you have yet to reply to any of my posts to you that counter what you've said. I wonder why.

I'm not fighting. I am replying to Melanhead and he can't even respond to him being caught lying. Now that's the funny part.

 

[MartinK]

You know how Melanhead is lying? His fingers and mouth are moving.
If that were true then why does Appendix N list the very authors you claimed didn't inspire Gary?

Appendix N means dogshit. AD&D is not a storygame (and if it was meant to be then it failed horribly), it does not and cannot emulate a genre or generate a coherent story or whatever. Appendix N is just a list of random books (mostly trash) Gary liked.

Yeah I guess all those adventures, novels, etc... for AD&D never told a single tale. Sit down retard before you hurt yourself. Your uneducated and ill informed opinion means dogshit.

 

[MartinK]

Yes, AD&D never told a single tale. The act of playing the game does not generate a story on the go. Best it can do is to generate a string of events that can be recorded and then used to write a story, which gave us Dragonlance and other such fancy TP.

Behold the retardation of 2020 Codexers. Dragonlance was written as novels before they were made into modules. I guess all of the modules produced by TSR never told a single tale... oh wait... Fuck off retard.

Are you able to tie your shoes? Can you even read?

 

[MartinK]

The Dragonlance novels were losely based on campaings Weiss and Hickman played. Is that not correct?

Not even close retard. Tracey Hickman and his wife, Laura, were driving from Utah to Lake Geneva, WI when he got the job at TSR in 1982. On the way there, he and his wife brainstormed up the Dragonlance world along with the series of adventures that would follow the Heroes of the Lance. Margaret Weis was already there at TSR and was assigned to help write the novels. Both Weis and Hickman worked out the plot of the novels that would form the plot of the 12 adventure modules. It was the first multimedia venture for TSR that crossed from the RPG to novels to computer games.

You could have read the Dragonlance wiki to know this information.

Look at the retard failing to do research and asking a dumb ass question.

 

[JamesDixon]

Now to fully humiliate MartinK. This is from the very first adventure module published for AD&D 1E. This is page three which establishes the story for A0-Danger at Darkshelf Quarry.

Spoiler

I could embarrass him further with the first adventure from Basic D&D 1974 which comes from Supplement 2 - Blackmoor. It's called Temple of the Frog.

 

[MartinK]

So I got some details about shitty novel series wrong. Thanks for cerrecting me. It turns out a better example would be Record of Lodoss War or the recent (and shit) Vox Machina cartoon. Anyway, the original point stands, AD&D (and any normal TTRPG for that matter) does not and cannot generate a story.

Really queen?

I guess they were doing it all wrong when Gary and Dave worked on Basic D&D in 1974. Since they were running story based games with that edition in Blackmoor and Greyhawk. Maybe you should dig up their corpses and tell them that they were doing it wrong.

Now I know you're trolling. You've earned a spot on the stupid list.

 

[MartinK]

Are you like slow and shit? That page is a narrative, all right, but what happens when you hang out with your friends and get to roll the dice, the thing the rules in the rulebook are concerned with... IS NOT A NARRATIVE.
