CW the racist/transphobic parts
The suit also cites documentation saying “a ‘negro’ race is de-scribed as a ‘Subrace’ in the game and as having ‘average’ intelligence with a maximum intelli-gence rating of 9, while the ‘norse’ race has a minimum intelligence rating of 13.”
“The game also refers to the Black Lives Matter movement as ‘radical’”, it continues, while adding “Star Frontiers New Genesis also contains offensive transphobic material: it includes a specific gender option for the characters ‘Male/Female no bonuses, and no Trans’”.
Gotta love how both the Gygax sons have taken to making TTRPG's to mooch off their father's fame
Luke Gygax seems like he might be okay as far as I know, but Ernie is absolutely a piece of shit like his dad
I'd played DnD in high school and started playing it again and recently learned about the Gary Gygax. I've even seen some people say Ernie is worse than Gary.
Yeah, Gary Gygax at least had the deceny to die before he could start a grift about "The Real D&D"
I'm not the most familiar with WotCs bullshit but it seems like it was very much a good thing TSR went under and they got DnD.

Funny enough, 4E was the first DnD game I ever played despite only doing like one session, then a friend ran the 5E starter set and I've done 5E since then.
As for D&D one, I haven't seen anything like that, but then again, I am a dumbass so I probably missed it. My group said we would probably either stick to 5E or just try Pathfinder if D&D one is super bad.
They say dnd one is meant to be backwards capital with all 5e content but some people speculate theyre just saying that bc they don’t want to effect sales leading up to the drop and I’m inclined to believe that given wotc general behavior lol
It's probably better but honestly there isn't much in it. WotC actually managed to make some things more bigoted when they took over. I generally find the 2E Forgotten Realms stuff more palatable than the stuff that came after, mostly because Ed Greenwood had more input and he is a complete fucking weirdo who also happens to be progressive.
As I said, I'm not the most familiar with WotC's bs, but they seem to have gotten enough backlash finally that they actually have to try and change things, so maybe thats why I made the assumption about WotC.
