#255: Is Metagaming Cheating?

This week, Morrus, Peter, and Jessica discuss whether metagaming is cheating. In the news, a new playtest document for the 2024 D&D revision, the ORC license has been finalized, a preview of the new D&D adventure Phandelver & Below, Origins Award winners announced, and more! Plus a brand new sketch about an underwhelming selection at the magic item shop.
