I actually like the first draft look of the art and black and white art like what 1e had. The sketch art of 3e gave things a good feel for me over a lot of other art. That said, I do not know a lot of the art and layout design that makes one piece better or more appropriate than another...

I see this sheet on this site. It looks a bit more for younger people- to me. I do like the color-coded parts to help explain to everyone. I do find most sheets too cluttered trying to get everything on the sheet. I have the sheet I use in the downloads page that I try to keep simple...

I like the new 5.5e logo.

Dying at 0HP was something that faded as well. I seem to recall -10 before you die and then half HP in negative and 3 death saves, but you start at 0 if you get healed. I do not remember if we had a rule to not die at 0 back then. I remember some people dying, but not sure if they got knocked...

With no page count it might be hard to determine the levels. There might be a free supplement thing put out for level 1-3 to introduce some things and then a level 4-12 book or something. Although what level do I need to be fighting a death tyrants and pig-faced demon? And the lich Tam guy...

All the published modules seem to show a level 1 encounter being something like 2 goblins, or 2 bandits. This seems to show an encounter should not be more than a single cr1 monster as a hard encounter. Maybe cr2 as a deadly/max encounter. Then again you also get one day of adventuring...

I find the way cantrips work in 5e it lessens the need for firearms. The firebolt vs pistol example shows that anyone with a cantrip wand does not need a firearm. But, then how can I make a cool duel-pistol guy instead of a duel-crossbow guy? Part of this might be that wands cost is like...

I do not own everything, but what I own- I like.
