r/osr is a subreddit with 47k members. Its distinguishing qualities are that the community is large in size, and has high activity.
This is a subreddit for news and discussion of Old School Renaissance topics. We primarily focus on D&D (LBB, 1st ed. AD&D, etc.) and the retroclones. Other Old School games (Traveller, Runequest, Tunnels & Trolls, et al) are of course open for discussion.
This is *not* a place to rant about how (your least favorite edition) sucks! In fact, I hope discussion arises about how later editions do things right, and how to incorporate them into OSR-styled games.

: "Bought this beauty, Dungeon Denizens, from Dark Future PDX. Great to support an awesome brick and mortar store. Also, good on Goodman Games for including the free PDF with a physical book purchase. Check out Dark Future in Portland for a bevy of OSR stuff. Chuck and the crew there are awesome 🤟🤟🤟"
