    Alien forms of gameplay/game design you've encountered?

    Why I Hate Skills

    There's also the desire to not have massive gulfs in skill bonuses. In 3rd, two different people could have a +20 or a +2 on any given skill and 4E thought to narrow that gap. Another 4Eism is focusing too much on the game rules to improve play. Instead of talking about rules, perhaps you...

    OOTS 1341: Also Fully Biodegradable

    WotC Why WotC SHOULD Make A New Setting

    A new setting would just end up looking like the Radiant Citadel and who wants more of that???

    Why I Hate Skills

    Would you rather the GM write up/buyl a hundred pages of setting knowledge and give players access to certain parts based of class/background/intelligence/etc. ??? This will also require a system of gaining access to more bits based on PC actions.

    D&D 5E (2024) Indirectly Buffing Rogues, Rangers, Monks Via Magic Items?

    AI/LLMs AI art bans are going to ruin small 3rd party creators

    If you rather interact with AI, why bother with Enworld? I heard Moltbook is where all the AI hang out.

    D&D General Melf's Guide to Greyhawk Coming From Luke Gygax & WotC

    So how many Ennies did Luke win??? That will surely settle this!

    Why I Hate Skills

    Which is why WOTC should sell paickable locks for DMs to have players actually pick during play. Instead of rolling a dice, a GM can pull out a lock and some picks have the players do IRL lockpicking!
