We don't want to go on Yoko Taro's wild ride. I played Drakengard. D&D players are not ready for Yoko Taro.

That wasn't even the first time his phylactery was destroyed. If he could walk back from the first one and inexplicably come back to show up for Year of Rogue Dragons, he can show up again. I get D&D has suffered with the "The text villains should exist to support actual adventures rather than...

Some Cult of the Dragon lich or something? But, yeah, folks bring up Myrkul and he was pretty dang dead after I used his own power to eat his soul and perma-kill him in the Astral Plane during NWN 2 MotB, yet he's apparently still kicking. If Myrkul can walk away from that, Sammaster's fine...

They tried. Go and see the reaction to 4E's time skip to see how well that went. I don't think anyone is recognising Sammaster for name recognition. Like, let's be honest here, he isn't a famous or popular D&D character. He's a 'literately who?', a glup shitto

I mean, back in Journey to the West that kinda just how it be mind I think said horse forgot he was a dragon prince like. 90% of the time

Orcs of Thar pre-dates Complete Book of Humanoids. They were playable in Basic first Its not a good book, sure, but, its the first time they're playable. Adding entire continents to the world who interact with the main part of it absolutely alters the Realms. If Ed was going to add his own...

Knightly orders around today sure aren't doing what they were doing over 100 years ago, acting like they should be nigh on identical and there can't be any change just leads FR to being stagnant, unchanging, and lacking any dynamics I may have killed a boss in FFXIV about that exact thing last...

That hasn't come up once in the stuff that Pukunui posted from this edition, so I gotta ask for a source. My source has them as disliking violence and being diplomatic sorts, being highly regarded as mediators for wars, which is, y'know, the type of thing appropriate for knightly virtues and the...

Amethyst dragons are chill and diplomatic? They prefer talking rather than fighting, but they're not isolationist Emeralds are the paranoid batch who don't like dealing with other people. Amethysts aren't Crystal dragon friendly, sure, but they're not isolationist

They keep bringing the name back. If they want fetch to happen, they gotta put effort into it If your average person hears "Dragon knight" they're going to think a knight associated with dragons in some way like, y'know, DotA's Dragon Knight, the knight who turns into a dragon with his ultimate...

We are talking about a bunch of cut-rate paladins (Because, let's be brutally honest, the game already had a knightly class, its the paladin) who's only noteworthy thing is having a neat name that barely makes sense with them. The 'oh its was a black dragon but more purple' is a terrible origin...

A massive shakeup of the existing stuff that's there. Break continuity with the original book, it isn't good and didn't fit in FR. Just have fun with it, declare the old one non-canon/biased source, and do whatever. Dredge up whatever works but don't be bound by it, it wasn't written for FR's...

I mean, we saw how 5E handled hybrid classes with those ones we saw in a previous UA. The ones clearly designed for Strixhaven. It was downvoted so bad that I doubt prestige classes are happening simply due to the reaction folks had to them trying that sort of "Multiple classes taking one idea"...

Well, that's you, and I frankly disagree and think its a boring book if you did it that way. When your competition (who crushed two D&D MMOs and was only out-done by BG3 decades after its high point) has humans, dwarves, gnomes, savage forest elves, space goats, full on werewolves, orcs...

I mean, a non-zero amount of people are effectively arguing against those new races and would scrap interesting and popular options like Dragonborn or tieflings for "Let's just mash together two of the existing races" Also, the only options that 5E had that didn't exist in older editions were...
