Dungeons and Dragons

0%
Season Finale
29 gennaio, 200430m

Dungeons and Dragons is a fantasy world that invites players to create their own characters and adventures. By the 1980's, this new world translated seamlessly into video games with the release of games like Ultima and Bard's Tale which borrow heavily from the D&D world. However, the series is not without its criticism; parents and conservative groups denounced the games as "dangerous" to young people, though the intense public scrutiny only helps D&D find a new audience. Today, developers such as Bioware use the complex D&D rule set in their most popular games like Baldur's Gate.
