If I am playing a character of a personality type very different than my own, and I think what I perceive them doing would take the story in an interesting direction, I'll likely do what the character would do. This isn't excusing being a murderhobo or making every other players time at the...

It's roughly about $20 USD at the moment, probably a little more.

Maybe it's because I've been taking another crack at reading the SCAG lately, but I think it suffers some of the organizational issues the 2014 DM's guide did. There's good stuff in here, especially if you're a bit of a gossip and want to get an idea or suggestion of what's going on behind the...

Whenever I see D&D beyond flirt with the idea of smaller adventures, bestiaries or setting guides, I often think of Pathfinder 1Es campaign chronicles and settings. For about 15 bones at the time, you could walk away with a 50ish page guide of a pantheon, setting, or closer look at a category...

I think it's hard to get a bead on how well the 2024 books are doing considering that there's a huge wealth of 2014 supported content that the 2024 books have to contend with. Even while being backwards compatible, it's an odd case of a product "competing" with it's own prior success. I'll...

I've been eying these books release since I'm currently in the middle of a Dragon Heist campaign with my playgroup. A read through of the SCAG and WDDH have made me interested in the messier side of the Lord's Alliance and the Sword Coast geopolitical climate in general. From a look at the...

I'm eyeing the FG realms books, but I'm a late adopter to 5E in general and have a hideous backlog of books to go through and run. In general, I'm more interested in how they've developed any lore or fleshed out settings beyond the Sword Coast. That aside, I probably won't be needing any of the...

I have a couple I could throw in if you haven't already given them a shake: Broadchurch (BBC edition) Twin Peaks True Detective If you enjoy logic knots and thrillers, Dark on Netflix is phenomenal. Has the setup of a mystery and investigation but goes off the rails fast.

I've been playing Xenoblade Chronicles DE and Balatro. Really want to give Expedition 33 and Oblivion Remastered a chance when I get time and some extra cash to throw around. It's been a great couple of years for RPG enjoyers.

Trying to do something new or original is great, but I also really like when something wears it's influences on it's sleeves loud and proud. Homage and pastiche of something well known and loved can be a great way to get people into any hobby.

That'd be a "Probably Not" for me. I just don't place value in something that's generated, especially when it comes down to art and lore. In a game where most of what's taking place is conceptual and abstract, I don't find it to be useful for people. The exception is those who don't mind parts...
