    In their defense D&D still was a good game back when they were playing it

      1980s D&D: Women characters in chainmail bikinis, evil races all have black skin, THAC0

      2020s D&D: Unisex outfits composed entirely of pockets, moral ambiguity and baby's first historical materialism in the plot, just roll d20 and add a number

        THAC0 was 2e AD&D so it's more of a 90s thing, I believe the kids in Stranger Things were playing Basic D&D, so ten foot poles and wizards dying to a stiff breeze (and the racist Drow depiction and chainmail bikinis if they move on to AD&D)

        I've only seen the first season though
