nice to know, although I will never use Doctor Who to teach rpgs to kids, it includes some of the cruelest bits in any franchise I ever seen.

Is that the TV franchise, or the game franchise (or both)?

the TV one. but I would find difficult separating the two, especially with kids, who most probably would want to play "the thing we saw on TV"

...wait, if they've seen the TV franchise anyway, what's the harm if they also get to play it:shade:?

they should n t have until teen IMO. nevertheless I don t want kids associate as first imprinting for their life's hobby a franchise in which good characters routinely die or worse and in which villains routinely torture or practice genocide.
 
This is the link for a Dr. Who megabundle currently on Humble Bundle. It includes what looks like most if not all of the 'Adventures in Time and Space' game line and also some audio dramas and comics. You get 36 items for $18. Given our recent discussion, I thought it might be of interest, or not.

I'm on the fence myself; I am a fan of Who (especially the Tom Baker era) but realistically am not very likely ever to play the game. Still, getting the game line for less than $1 per book is tempting.

I ask in all seriousness ('cos I've been on the fence myself about the current bundle)
- Have you even looked at what you purchased, or is it just consuming harddrive space?
- And was it worth it for the reading? These days I could spend that amount if I purchased a new novel

:hehe: Oh Shit - Ignore the above questions! Asking them just niggled something in the back of my brain and I just went and checked....

I bought this back in a 2017 bundle :dead::shock::weep:

That's what I appreciate about Allen Varney Allen Varney and the Bundle of Holding: they won't let me buy another copy. Lol. Instead, they give me anything new that changed since the last time it ran :thumbsup:

I think I'm one of the reasons that they instituted that. I do remember I bought duplicates before it was implemented, and Allen Varney Allen Varney was always gracious about it.
 
When you forget that you have already purchased something, and purchase it again:
1) You are becoming your parents ( Think, where have we seen that shirt before?)
2) The item you purchased was not particularly memorable.
3) You are buying way to much crap to keep up with it all.

That's one interpretation. I'd disagree. A lot of it can be contributed to FOMO, Impulsiveness and excitement, which wouldn't be covered by any of those, and is actually the thing that gets me in that. And a lot of it can also be contributed to competing platforms. I've purchased things again because of the fact that I have it elsewhere, and knew that I had it, but hadn't organized it. Putting your own interpretations on someone else's experience as an authority is sort of bad form, IMO.

You think your parents didn't have FOMO, impulsiveness, or excitement:grin:?

I'd say they just didn't have an acronym for FOMO:thumbsup:.

This was meant as kind of joke, nothing personal .For the becoming your parents bit I was thinking of this commercial:

Oh shit - you mean I'm going to develop a pot belly? I already have a receding hairline.

I mean it might mean that as well. There's no "will", but some of the things that end up happening might well end up surprising you...in an "I didn't know I'm signing up for that, too!" way:tongue:!

My father had a full head of hair when he passed away at 81. I’ve got very, very little and I’m only 53.

Not fair at all.

...yeah, and sometimes we don't sign up for what we should have, too. I can say the same, I suspect:thumbsup:!
