1. Yes, that is Weird Al himself in that suit putting in the tape at the start.
2. I love that Daniel Radcliffe has no fucks left to give.
3. In a truly Weird Al move, this is shaping up to be an epic parody of every music biopic of the past 10 years and I am HERE for it.
Daniel Radcliffe stars as Weird Al Yankovic in the official trailer for the biopic

Zagreus is such a refreshingly wholesome male character. He's not afraid to show his affection, will literally die hundreds of times for those he loves, and spends an inordinate amount of time making the people he cares about happy.
I would like more please.

Look, I loved HP as much as anyone.
I commissioned custom wands. I know all the lore. I have been to the parks. I bought the "smart" house merch.
But I love my trans friends more. And that is worth abandoning all of those memories at the door, because that's what love is about.

Weird Al has a special place in my heart, since hours after we first met I went over to my (now) husband's place to listen to "Poodle Hat" together.
God we were such nerds.

No.
The purpose of playing a TTRPG together is to create a story. It's to share moments of joy, sorrow, triumph and revenge collectively.
Shaming your players for not remembering things is NOT conducive to this. This is objectively bad GMing advice.

His relationships with the other characters are rooted in empathy and kindness, which is SUCH a good example of healthy masculinity.

Ok we've officially hit "bitch eating crackers" level on this.
Lots of people don't seem to understand the distinction between using a reference and straight up plagiarizing.
Fay doesn't deserve this level of vitriol.

I mean, considering WotC let go of almost all of the team that partnered with Larian, I completely understand their decision.
Larian Studios isn't planning to release expansions/DLC for Baldur's Gate 3 or Baldur's Gate 4. "Larian plans to move away from Dungeons & Dragons entirely and do something new, leaving the IP in Wizards of the Coast's hands."

YUMA IS TRANS!!
WE HAVE TRANS MASC REPRESENTATION!!!
Not only that, but we have TRANS DAD REPRESENTATION!!!
This is actually DEEPLY in keeping with history. Many trans folks came out West to reinvent themselves and live authentically, like Harry Allen.
Yuma thought he had a fresh start on Thunder Junction. But your past always catches up to you eventually.

"Gideon was so brave." Jace said.
"And sweet." Jaya nodded.
"And caring." Ajani rumbled.
"And decidedly male." Chandra blurted.
Everyone turned to stare at her.
"IT'S WHAT HE WANTED!"
Jace leaned over towards Vraska. "Darling," he asked. "Am I -?"
"No." The gorgon replied.

All the racists yelling about Aragorn weren't up in arms about Mina Harker a year or so ago.
Yeah, they're just idiots.
Adaptations can and should update a work to reflect the time theyโre being adapted in. I really love the changes to the new LotR set, and if you have a problem with it, youโll have to content yourself with the 5,000 other adaptations, preferably somewhere far away from me.

Let me make this clear:
If you are offended by Black Aragorn, you're racist.
It's not about what the text says.
It's not about your precious memories of the movie.
It's not about corporate pandering.

, if you want to know how to pronounce Khanh's name:
1. It's not "Con", but more like a short "a" of "Can"
2. The "nh" is slightly aspirated, so instead of emphasizing the "n", just let it be soft.
3. "Khanh" means "precious gem"!

We want better worldbuilding.
I know that Magic sets in particular don't merit the same intricacy as a D&D setting, and we're not asking for "Maps of Waterdeep" level stuff.
But answering questions like this should be basic. Even some flavor text would be welcome.
When I say I want more magic stories, I mean stuff that answers questions like "Who designed this train? Who built it? Why did they build them? Was it Gonti and that's why the design looks Kaladeshi? Do they go through omenpaths? If so, which planes have an interplanar station?"
