    D&D (2024) Life drain needs to be replaced with Exhaustion

    Undead should Undead should make the pc's pause, have a slight glimpse of fear, fatigue is barely a threat imho. What problems/issue are you trying to fix with your proposed change?

    WotC How much does Hasbro / WotC impact your feelings towards D&D?

    Project Sigil, I had thought there was some speculation about an AI integration, and posibly an AI DM.

    WotC How much does Hasbro / WotC impact your feelings towards D&D?

    I say tiny/1 because I stopped played 5e, well before the OGL scandal. So I didn't leave 5e due to wotc/hasbro unscrupulous business practices, I left because the game didn't appeal to me. I have no plans to play 2024, I did read through a friends copy though. I did sign up for the AI D&D...

    D&D General How Often Should a PC Die in D&D 5e?

    A weird question to me, I don't expect anyone to die nor keep a tally by session/week/campaign, but poor choices and maybe poor dice rolls can end up with pc deaths. I roll in the open, or in the case of my pbp for the pc's to see - my physical dice and/or randomizer "dice roller" are usually...

    OSR What OSR System for Barrowmaze?

    Another vote for DragonSlayer - especially given the author connection and you have the pdf/?. I got to play DS with Giuseppe, and enjoyed it - but we already have a bunch of OSE books, and didn't need more books, some in our circle own the HC, and i have the pdf. I would find Shadowdark too 5e...

    D&D General Why Do You Prefer a Medieval Milieu For D&D? +

    I think the rules of D&D [any edition] fit better in a fantasy type setting, real Merlin, Conan, LoTR type stuff, the weapons and armor, magic.. artificer and warforge I usually ban from my games, doesn't fit my fantasy themes, now a plancescape world hopping setting, maybe spelljammer i'd use...

    D&D General Dark Sun as a Hopepunk Setting

    I'm actually looking at running Talislanta 2nd ed. Had the books since the 90s, and finally hoping to do it, rebuilt my shelves during COVID, but needed to wrap up some 5e games.

    D&D General Dark Sun as a Hopepunk Setting

    Uh, there already is a group running with Dark Sun for 5e[ also OSE, 3.x, 4.x, PF 1&2, etc.] , they were at Origins and Gencon.. why do we need WOTC [to ruin it]?? The group even puts out D&D version agnostic adventures.. Permanent link for vr. Agnostic Dark Sun Discord: Join the Dark Sun...

    D&D General Let's list/complain about things we don't like

    Yes, we played 5e consistently for 10ish years, in and around Jan/ 2022 we finished Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden - moved to Old School Essentials, AD&D 1e & 2e, Mothership, Star wars d6, Ten Candles (Rethemed with Strahd/castle Ravenloft) past 2 years, with a single one shot 5e game...

    D&D General Let's list/complain about things we don't like

    That I homebrewed 5e so much(5e hardcore supplement), that it was better to just pick a different game like [D&D} Old School Essentials and add in a few things I liked from 5e. I capped stats at 18, rolled all HD, passed on feats [optional], ditched stat bumps, rolled for attributes, used...
