10 Best Modern D&D Inspired TV Shows & Movies, Ranked

by

Pop culture is currently seeing a resurgence of interest in Dungeons & Dragons, starting with the release of the 5th edition in 2014. As someone who’s been playing for nearly twenty years, I’m thrilled to see its growing popularity. We’re now seeing more and more TV shows and movies inspired by D&D, and the game has become so influential that it subtly shapes stories even when creators aren’t aware of it. It’s a ripple effect – D&D inspires one work, which then inspires another, and so on.

The indictment, unsealed in the Southern District of New York, reads like a tragedy penned by a bureaucrat with a flair for the dramatic. Van Dyke is charged with unlawful use of confidential government information, theft of nonpublic government information, commodities fraud, wire fraud, and unlawful monetary transaction. Three counts under the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) loom over him like a trio of vengeful Furies, each carrying a maximum of 10 years in prison. For a man who once navigated the shadows of war, the prospect of a decade in the dim light of a cell must seem a cruel irony.

Dark dungeon crawler RPG Annihilated launches on July 22 for PC

by

I stumbled across this cool-looking dungeon crawler RPG back in February, and the premise really grabbed me – it’s all about making tough choices because you can only save one character.

It’s a bit weird, but honestly, I’m more excited about the gameplay!
