So, as the person with the "Carpe DM" tattoo earlier in the post... In regards to making sure it's something that you'll like the rest of your life... I've been playing dnd most of my life. Even if I were to stop playing immediately, and never play again, it helped shaped who I am as a person...

This is mine. The angle makes it look odd, but when looking at it straight on it's great.

Just a correction: It launched this morning at 11, not a few days ago.

I'm not suggesting anyone boycott anything, and I don't suddenly blame the whole company for anything terrible. I did, however, get a product earlier that I found unsatisfactory, and was told that my complaints weren't valid, that everything I suggested wouldn't happen, and was not offered any...

Yeah, I'm done with GF9. I submitted numerous questions / issues with the cards I bought when it first came out, and they assured me that "there would be no updates to the cards" and that my issues with them were basically "working as intended." Among my issues: Missing Concentration tag, the...

5 out of 5 rating for D&D 5th Edition Player's Handbook I find that the 5e is the perfect blend of 2e's deadliness and quick combats, 3.x's playstyle and ruleset, and 4e's character creation options and ease of running the game. The PHB sets the stage for this style perfectly, and between the...

So... One would assume the game would normally cost some money, let's assume $60. Most MMO's include the first month as part of that. So for pre-ordering and supporting this game early, it's $20 per month? I get there's a "Player Pack Consumables" and the ability to help build the world, but...

Honestly, even a poorly run kickstarter I could see backing if I had any faith in the product. The problem is, I am a software developer, and I participated in the beta. Don't get me wrong; unlike most people, I didn't care how buggy it was. I expect that. My issue, which I asked about in the...

I guess I was more focused on the second part of my comment. They keep pointing out that "We'll have tons more interest later, when we get out act together!" Why would I want to back the project if they clearly don't know what they're doing? I'm not saying I know all about running a...

As someone who backs video- and tabletop-game kickstarters regularly, it's easy to see certain patterns. You have also pointed out that the first 48 and the last 48 hours are the most important time in a kickstarter, and that usually accounts for a decent percent of the total amount. In this...

I think this, especially the "Pledges Per Day To Succeed", says everything:

Summary of the thread so far: People make wild accusations about the scarcity, or lack thereof, of the most potent magic items. Then, in combining all these magic items together on a single character, come to ridiculous conclusions about how 5e is broken. All this and more in next weeks...

What other way is there to interpret it? It seems completely straightforward and unambiguous to me.
