"fighting-man" is your go-to, very first example of "insensitive and derogatory language?" You fucking loser.
"GI Joe, GI Joe; fighting man from head to toe!"
so you removed content? Gotcha. So it's worth than useless and, if I wanted that edition, I should just go get the originals
That's what I did. I never really played D&D proper, but I read some of the novels and played some of the computer games and I have appreciation for the source material. I downloaded all of the stuff from second edition and earlier from The Trove several years ago.
Modern D&D doesn't exist, it's a just Hasbro wearing The branding of the original IP like a skin suit with none of the charm or wonder
The history of the game and TSR itself is pretty interesting: did you know they were acquired by the family that owned the rights to Buck Rogers, which is why they had to push out a bunch of Buck Rogers crap towards the end of their existence? They paid royalties for using that IP too. I would prefer to read about it from an unbiased source however.
I remember the Buck Rogers boxes, but I never knew they were pushing it because of new owners. I'm trying to wrack my brain here... I think I had a friend who bought the set, but we never played it.
We did play Star Frontiers a few times, it was ok. I wonder if Star Frontiers was pushed aside so Buck Rogers would be the 'sci-fi' brand? The DM really had to put in a ton of labor for Star Frontiers. The rules were pretty bare bones. Which is both good/bad. In hindsite the settings where it's like that are usually better, you just need the rare unicorn DM that loves to write.
