    Trailer Tales of the Shire - Announcement Trailer

    You know, this is perfect. The problem with the films and definitely with the video games is that they MISS what Tolkien's Lord of the Rings were all about in the first place. You HAVE to have a place you care about to care about protecting and defending it. Tolkien spends over 1/10th of...

    Spoilers So, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire? [spoiler thread]

    I just saw the film. I thought it was good. Definately better than the Star Wars Sequels in regards to "fan service"...aka...how they treat the former movies and what happened in them along with how they treat the old characters that drew people to the film series in the first place. The...

    Trailer Mufasa: The Lion King | Teaser Trailer

    The "Live" action Lion King must have been far more successful than I thought if they are making a prequel/sequel to it.

    D&D (2024) WotC Fireside Chat: Revised 2024 Player’s Handbook

    5e is terrible at this. Superman only has a 20% greater chance than I do...because he only gets a +4 more on his legendary than anyone else. Unless, of course, they decide to change this someway in the republished 5e. A Master only has a 10% chance of being better than I am at their...

    Asmodee Owner To Split Into 3 Companies

    I'd wait. Just like they did with T$R...but that didn't work out the way they planned (some crazy person at a card company decided to pay more money than it was worth and actually PAID that much money for it). Unless you have a wild card pop up (like there was for T$R), if Asmodee continues...

    Asmodee Owner To Split Into 3 Companies

    When was this made? I thought it was in eternal development hell (having changed hands multiple times) but has not actually been made yet. Did I miss something?

    D&D General If you were made president of D&D, what would you do?

    I believe the D&D novels are still available, or a lot of them. They have just changed in format and how they are sold. There are a TON of D&D novels availabe on Amazon in the Kindle format for example.

    D&D 5E Here's All The Loot In B&G's Vecna: Eve of Ruin Platinum Edition

    Liability. If they included a hand or eye of Vecna too many people out there would invariably start trying to hack their hand or pluck their eye out and replace it with those things. I mean...haven't you heard about the Head of Vecna and what the PC's did just to try it out without even...

    D&D 5E Here's All The Loot In B&G's Vecna: Eve of Ruin Platinum Edition

    Hah...buy the Platinum edition just so I can get the temporary tattoo and put it on. That's a $500 temporary tattoo!! Then again, if you never use it...why even have it?

    D&D General Matt Colville on adventure length

    I think short adventures are handled better with their Society (and WotC's Living Campaigns). They are not quite tailored for groups on their own (but nothing stops small groups from getting these adventures and running them on their own), but they fill that gap. This is especially good for...

    D&D General Hasbro Is Looking For Partners For Baldur's Gate 4

    It's not the W they are interested in...it's the $$$. I think that even if the next BG game (BG4 perhaps) will do okay no matter how bad it is. If it is bad than it will sink into infamy, but it will still make millions based off the popularity and reputation of BG3. On the otherhand, if...

    D&D General If you were made president of D&D, what would you do?

    D&D is in a decent place and should make money on it's own with the new release as long as it isn't botched up. Of bigger concern would be MtG and a LOT of PR work in that arena to make sure it continues to grow even bigger than it is now. PR work wouldn't hurt for D&D either.

    Cost of D&D Editions, then and now

    Unearthed Arcana was a later 1e book. I'm talking the original printings of the PHB, MM, and DMG. Those things were beasts! I've heard that they were printed by the same people who made school textbooks (that would also get beat up by students carrying them around) or something like that...

    Cost of D&D Editions, then and now

    Well...generally. Those early 1e books could take a beating like no other book has been able to since!

    Pathfinder 1E Are there compelling reasons to upgrade to PF1 from 3.0?

    A rising tide floats all boats. With how popular D&D has been over the past few years it would be surprising if PF2e wasn't benefiting from that. Edit: I've been leaning more towards Starfinder myself these past few years, so I suppose I'd be one that is making SF be a little higher in the...
