    Wizards of the Coast Re-Registers Dark Sun With USPTO

    Yeah, I doubt it's lucrative enough to attract scalpers, but there are plenty of people who think posting AI slop is "being creative".

    Yeah, they won't remove slavery, they just won't dwell on it, or make the PCs either slaves or slavers.

    D&D more popular, ergo is more attractive to people who want to make a quick buck rather than actually create something. The less popular the ruleset, the more dedicated you have to be to want to make something for it. DMG in effect filters out the less popular rulesets.

    The Mummy 4 Is Actually Happening?

    They don’t have a script yet so no one knows. However, it would be about the time of the Suez crisis, so they would either have to write a script dealing with a complex political situation, or go elsewhere. Given the involvement of Israel in that, I think political expedience will send them...

    The Mummy 4 Is Actually Happening?

    Nope, I saw it and quite enjoyed it. No one said you had to be a kid to enjoy cartoons!

    No. those actors are younger than me, don’t be so quick to discard people.

    Godzilla minus Zero teaser

    I’ve heard much worse language in the UK about what a force for good the British Empire was. It sounds to me like you are specifically saying “all Japanese were guilty and deserved to be nuked”.

    D&D General Do you think we might start to see more varied Tiefling art to match the PHB descriptions?

    Doric was pretty much the same as Neeshka from NWN2.

    D&D General Does anyone else starting to feel like FR: HoF & FR: AiF were starved of resources because of the Core Books

    Sure, the book isn’t aimed at you, so buying it would be silly. It’s still an excellent book, not every product has to be for you.

    The Mummy 4 Is Actually Happening?

    Brendan was playing older in the 1946 set third film, a 50s set 4 would make the stars the right age and feature a similar time jump to the other films.

    Hey look, there's a new Robin Hood show coming with Sean Bean as the Sheriff!

    They might shoot him full of arrows instead. I just can’t believe he survived National Treasure!

    People are different. As you say, they are sacrificing one part of the market, in order to attract a different, larger market. As for me, I certainly don’t expect the setting to provide a narrative. My players and I do that. I’m just looking for the setting to provide a bit of background fluff...

    No one wants to paint the poor ugly tieflings! Only the sexy ones! But sexy demon person has been the popular culture trope for a while, and that gets imposed on tieflings, not the other way round (also see Pathfinder, WoW etc). Which is why the unsexy 4e bull horns were so unpopular. NB...
