    Spoilers Superman Spoiler Thread

    Now I wish some version of that scene was in the film. That's the best explanation for that I've ever heard. Kudos to whomever wrote that issue of the comic.

    Spoilers Superman Spoiler Thread

    As someone who doesn't really follow Superman or the DC universe, I'll offer a few thoughts about this movie as a sci-fi action movie in general instead of a Superman movie in particular: I'll start by saying the cast did well with what they were given, but the writing and directing didn't...

    D&D General How do devils actually get to the world from hell?

    The the Divine Intervention section on page 75 of the 2024 DMG says gods can "send dreams, omens, or emissaries to direct mortals along a certain path." The same section mentions Fiends as one potential type of emissary. Since the arch-devil Asmodeus is a god in the Realms, he's presumably...

    D&D General More details on what to expect from the Player's Guide to the Forgotten Realms from Polygon, Massive Amount of Spells & Feats

    If nothing else, I'm sure new FR content will show up in the DMs Guild around the same time the new FR books drop. Maybe some of that will meet your needs.

    Disney sues Midjourney

    I guess I don't understand people who aren't passionate about creating things. All my best dreams are about creative work I would do if I didn't have to earn a living doing something else.

    Disney sues Midjourney

    Sorry to hear that. I've definitely been there before, and may be there again soon. That's why I dream of a world where everyone can make a living working in a career they find personally rewarding. I'd rather live in that world than a world where machines provide a bunch of free stuff to...

    Disney sues Midjourney

    Now dream of a world where you work full time but get paid nothing, because everyone else wants the fruits of your labor to be so dirt cheap, anyone can afford them. That's the world you're asking professional artists who rely on copyright protections to live in, so presumably, you're okay...

    Dragonlance DRIVETHRUFICTION QUESTION

    There's a Promotion/Press forum on EN World where posters are permitted to promote their products. Presumably, one could promote fiction there in a thread with the Media tag. (Edit: Burnside posted the relevant link in the next post.)

    Tomb Raider RPG Cancelled For Creative Differences

    Maybe their research consisted of watching the movie Kingsman: The Secret Service. One of the characters in that movie was all about unrealistic running blade physics. (It's not a movie I'd recommend, so feel free to take my word for it and save yourself two hours which could be better spent...

    DMs Guild [Design Notes] Forgotten Realms Travel Guide: Faerûn, Kara-Tur, and Zakhara

    Rage Against the Machine I enjoy creative work too much to let AI do it for me. I imagine that’s true of most writers and other artists. While I’m not one of the lucky ones who makes a living doing creative work, I would find it rather depressing if there was no paying creative work left in...

    Which RPG has the best combat rules for flying vehicles?

    Great suggestions so far! I've been watching Youtube play-throughs of some of the vehicle combat systems mentioned in this thread, and they've given me some good food for thought. Keep the suggestions coming, especially if you want to call out a specific mechanic you think works especially well...

    Which RPG has the best combat rules for flying vehicles?

    I'm thinking about writing some D&D 2024 house rules for combats involving flying vehicles, and I'm looking for inspiration. Which RPG or supplement would you say has the best combat rules for flying vehicles, and what do you like most about those rules?

    D&D 5E (2024) Who has sign language?

    NPCs who use sign language appear in several modern WotC adventures (including Baldur's Gate: Descent Into Avernus, Tomb of Annihilation, and Waterdeep: Dragon Heist, if I'm not mistaken). If you look at older editions, sign languages of various sorts are fairly widespread in the Forgotten...

    Spoilers Star Wars: Andor season 2

    But Dedra did change as a direct result of her experience on Ghorman. Dramatically so. Prior to Ghorman, Dedra did everything by the book. She trusted in the Imperial system. She worked hard to get her superiors to sign off on her inquiries into Axis, because she was convinced she was in a...

    DMs Guild [Design Notes] Forgotten Realms Travel Guide: Faerûn, Kara-Tur, and Zakhara

    Thanks for the comment! If all goes well, the Forgotten Realms Travel Guide will drop in a matter of months. I very much hope it helps you organize your notes! One of my two big design goals: provide a framework people with other Forgotten Realms products can use to organize and build upon...
