Pretty sure E6 did that.

And see, this is why having the context of why this was being done is important. If the overall goal is to have pseudo-multiclassing by using feats, why not take an approach similar to how 4e handled it in heroic tier? So instead of having a generic extra attack feat -- well, you might still...

I don't see a good reason for this to be a feat. There isn't a justification sufficient, to me, to make this a thing. That said -- your initial take on prereqs sounds reasonable. If I was somehow convinced that this was needed or a net positive, that would be sufficient. I'm a bit waffle-y on...

For 1e, Dragon 78 introduced a psionicist class, as well as additional psionic powers. Can't speak to how balanced it is, though, as I've never seen it at a table.

When checking if a person would be a good fit, before I tell them anything about how my table works, I ask what they'd like to play from core. If the answer is "tiefling" or "warlock," they're not a good fit. No core races other than human (and I only do variant human, not vanilla), and the...

I haven't bought a WotC D&D product since I picked up the 4e core on release day, whenever that was. ...don't take that to mean I'm still playing 4e. I'm not.

I am currently running a mashup of Dragon Heist, Curse of the Crimson Throne, and Egg of the Phoenix, with a host of alterations and modifications to fit my setting and my metaplot's needs.

Here's my take on the concept. It hasn't undergone any real testing, though. Also the spellcasting mechanics for the caster subclass are going to look funny, because I have a homebrewed casting system.

When I run games in my setting - and I only run games in my setting - I ban all core classes and all core races other than human. I am not Tolkien, and I am not running a world he would have written. I run my setting, with my preferences and thoughts regarding worldbuilding, and so I have no...

Is he going to wield dual scimitars and have a magical panther ally? Because I feel like I've heard this story before.

Currently planning what will look something like this:

"No longer existing in my setting" is a rough gig.

All links are to homebrew of my own design. Races all link to same document. Penumbra Rising: Current game, I am the DM, characters are level 12: Isrin: female draenei lawbringer judge Qirin: female firbolg observation learner Zekla: female isci blackjack gambler Cryton: male rythuli...

They suffer from the naming problem that plagued 4e. With a better name, I imagine they would have been better received.

I don't allow multiclassing in my games, and haven't for years. I've read numerous arguments against it, both in terms of how it impacts the game and characters mechanically and RP-wise, and have decided it just doesn't make sense for my table.

I'm the DM. All characters in my games get a feat at 1st level, and stacks with the feat granted by being human (I exclusively use variant humans and don't allow vanilla).

Some of the questions could have been better designed. Asking me if I played with my parents - who introduced me to it when I was a kid, ~30 years ago - before and during/after COVID seems a bit silly, because the answer is "before," but (I assume) that's not really what they were asking.

My completion rate for PbP games, DM or player, is 0%. I'm not sure if that says something about me or the medium. In-person or VTT games: 50%, for games I've run (5/10). Games in which I played and was present from start to finish (whether natural or game death): 33% (2/6), so far as I can...

I've been writing about my setting since '94, and started running games in '98. Still working on it, and still running games in it today. I've literally never run a game that wasn't in that setting. It's changed over the years, both due to my tastes evolving and the actions of characters, but...

What an awkward necro. If someone had been born the day I first posted in this thread, they would now be older than I was when I made that post. TTRPGs are an engaging hobby because they engage a lot of different ways of thinking and being creative at once, and I'm be hard pressed to name...
