D&D has had rules for fear almost since the beginning.
But if a monster forces your character to flee, does that actually scare YOU, or just take away your control?
My latest video explores how D&D has handled fear, horror, & madness over the decades.

D&D players weren’t ALWAYS stereotyped as nerds.
Some early media coverage actually focused on how intelligent the people playing this strange new game seemed to be.
Then the story changed.
My new video looks at how we got from there to the D&D “nerd.”

D&D players were arguing with TSR over who got to define their game 40 years ago.
One player threatened to stop buying AD&D. Another answered, “If you can't use it, don't buy it.”
But another response got to the heart of it: “my campaign.”

My latest video today talks in part about how D&D became mainstream, and part of that discussion involves how the game was eventually carried in department store holiday catalogs. This tweet from 2022 covers how D&D appeared in them from 1981 - 1984. – at San Marino, CA

By the early 1980s, you could find D&D in toy stores, mall bookstores and even the Sears catalog!
But TSR had to change more than its distribution to get there.
