    D&D 5E 5e Zeitgeist

    Wow. Narrow scope, eh. (FR only I mean, not EN5ider). I was also wondering if Paizo were going to consider doing some stuff, but based on the above response, that seems unlikely, especially how well they've done with PF.

    D&D 5E 5e Zeitgeist

    So with the recent arrival of the DM Guild, do we think there's much hope of getting a 5th edition version of Zeitgeist? I've always thought it looked like an amazing adventure path, and I'm really digging the 5e ruleset. Plus, no offence to WotC, but as delighted I am to see them making...

    Acquisitions Incorporated: The Lost Episode

    For the record, I don't think he's a douche, I just don't find him funny, and can think of funnier people. I also think he's a bit of an attention seeker, and drags his "jokes" out a bit too long.

    Acquisitions Incorporated: The Lost Episode

    Right so, finally watched it. This was not as bad as I had feared. I'll be honest, I felt that the last game (Darkmagic's Will) jumped the shark for them. Dick jokes ahoy and Wheaton acting like a fool. This wasn't as bad as it could have been. And it had some semblence of the dynamic that I...

    Is there anywhere to see this after the fact?

    Acquisitions Incorporated: The Lost Episode

    I haven't listened to this one yet, but I don't have high hopes unfortunately. I loved the original podcasts, and the live shows don't compare. Obviously it has a lot to do with the time constraints. I will agree that the more I listen, the more Wheaton annoys me. In the podcasts he's not so...

    If we have specialities, why do we need a plethora of classes?

    I agree - to a point. A lot of classes, (especially Paladins - never understood the point) could be done as backgrounds and specialities. Except. Right now, one of the beauties of the Backgroud/Speciality system is that (in theory) you could have a party of fighters,rogues,clerics, whatever...

    I figured no, it just would be interesting to see if they would seeing as how they'll (presumably) be running an Avenger with DDN rules. Or do we think they'll do something like use a Cleric with different domains and specialities?

    New Content

    Just wondering if you think there'll be another little mini-release of content, seeing as how PAX is round the corner. There's already the DDN PA/PVP/WW game, reckon there'll be some related content released with it?

    What a steaming pile of otyugh feces!

    I think that's known as the LOST effect.

    Character Creation Now Supported: Let's Make Some Characters!

    I love the Warlock, although never been as keen on Fey pacts as some of the others. Oh well, here goes. Cale Blackthorne Human Warlock Noble Jack of All Trades (The speciality is a bit of a place filler - I'm not keen on any of them for this char) A young human noble, who was betrothed to be...

    New Backgrounds/Specialities

    I agree - I think the Hunter/Woodsman backgrounds are spot on. I've been thinking about this today, and had a look at some of the 4e backgrounds (Which are pretty barebones) for some inspiration. I think the skills aspect is pretty easy to nail down most of the time. And the starting equipment...

    New Backgrounds/Specialities

    I absolutely love the Backgrounds in Next - especially the fact that they're primarily Role Play effects rather than mechanical. Specialities are pretty cool too, but the ones we've seen thus far... I'd like to see more. So, which backgrounds (& specs) would you like to see? What would they entail?

    What do you use then? Just on a piece of paper?

    Character Sheets

    Just wondering how people were finding the current character sheets. Do we think this is more or less the final look for them? Personally, I don't like it at all. It's too vague as to what goes where, and (the real test for me) I just end up getting annoyed trying to fill it in. Opinions?

    Future of D&D Keynote Speech [UPDATE - with video!]

    Ha Fair enough, and I get what you mean, but as someone whose job is essentially lots of pitches and presentations, I understand why this was done. To be fair, the stakes for screwing up even a little were quite high. Maybe the responses looked a bit TOO canned or whatever, but all in all...

    Adventure Scale

    Okay, just to clarify, I was more getting at small scale adventures being better, but ok.

    What is the Sundering?

    As in I know nothing about FR, but I'd like to know anything. I've heard talk of times of troubles, spell plagues, etc. is there a decent source book for getting a backround idea, like the (excellent) Pathfinder Inner Sea Guide?

    Adventure Scale

    So I was chatting to a friend about the new playtest packet, and he made a really good point (I think). I'm just going to quote him here "Having 'pick Dwarf Locks' as one of the hardest things you can do in the game is great, too - it's not 'outwit an abyssal lord' or 'run up a length of...
