As a 20+ (sigh) 30+ year DM, not very happy with the complicated interaction of Dual Wielder, Light weapon property, and Nick weapon mastery. Particularly the fact that there's no way to use two one-handed non-light weapons without having to use Extra Attack. I want people to be able to pair or...

I always liked that bit of unpredictability when it came to rolling your power checks in 2e, but I imagine that wouldn't fly in 5e. I seem to remember getting a powerful ability like disintegrate at level 3 was even a possibility in dark sun, though it was difficult and risky to use. I do want...

Problem is they should have known this would be a big opportunity to introduce a whole bunch of new folks to the miniatures hobby who aren't used to the marketing, and they fumbled that. They definitely can do better. A couple of random figures I grabbed, one common and one uncommon, from recent...

There definitely seems to be quality levels budgeted for each set. Some figures get very detailed, multicolor paint jobs with face stamping, while others get maybe two colors and a wash. Some are quite good, some muddy and dreary. These premium sets should be showpiece levels though, especially...

Salvatore fan but I just can't with his goofy character names beyond the companions of the hall.

Had zero interest in Sigil, want them to focus on getting features added to DDB that are still absent

I built my 60" table tv frame out of 20x20mm t-slot aluminum tubing, anodized black, lifting the tv about 4" above the tabletop. This lets people slide books and tablets under the edge, increasing the amount of usable table space. LED strip lighting around the bottom outside edge gives people...

I believe the RAW has been covered. I hate that 2024 doesn't have an option to wield two non-light weapons now though, so we're playtesting a houserule for the 2nd bullet of Dual Wielder: Enhanced Dual Wielding. You treat all melee weapons lacking the Two-Handed property as if they had the...

Some issues we've noted, some are just general to D&DB and not specific to 2024. The character sheet does not let you spend hit dice arbitrarily on things outside of a short rest. See the 2024 Healer feat for an example of why this is necessary. 2024 warlocks only have access to the 2024 PHB...

Wish they would include both the original and revised text.

WotC and those unforced errors once again.

Are the NPC stat blocks really just sorted into the general monster list and not in a separate appendix? That's going to make a lot of needless searching.

Chk!

Despite growing up in a conservative evangelical family in the 80s, they never had a problem with D&D stuff. In fact my first product was a used basic set my mom picked up at a rummage sale for me.
