Guys as gender neutral, Gygax was sexist and two reviews: Lost Mountain Saga and Apocrypha
Language can be a tricky thing with many nuances for different expressions. “Guys” is one of those words that raise eyebrows depending on how you use it. Do you use it as a gender-neutral pronoun or do you use it as a male pronoun?
Recently Gary Gygax came back to the fray when petulant billionaire Elon Musk decided to attack anyone and everyone who thought that Gygax was sexist. He was. Undeniably. But there was more to him than that. We talk about it.
And two reviews:
The Lost Mountain Saga, of which I think I have already spoken in the past. This multi-adventure campaign for Vaesen and authored by Ellinor DiLorenzo takes the players to the north of Sweden to investigate what is going on in the
depths of the mine of a remote town that has recently seen a new life.
And Chris talks about Apocrypha, one of his favourite games and why he thinks it is better than the Pathfinder card game.
