Daggerheart, Chronicles of Darkness, Pathfinder 2E, and Genesys right now. Oodles previously.

We ended up doing the same. It was just a non-fun spell, so there was a general agreement to not use it on each other most of the time. It still shows up once in a while to keep things spicy, but nobody prepares it as a regular thing anymore.

Enemies can start casting it even before approaching the party's location, then walk over to finish the cast in the last handful of seconds. It's concentration, so subject to being interrupted, but a heck of a dirty tactic if they can pull it off.

Oh definitely. Entire FR pantheons are migrants from our world, including a scattering of Netjer, Tuatha, Aesir, etc. And you have the whole of Olympus just hanging out in the planes. :geek:

My group quickly realized it could be used to establish bunker fallback points in any situation where there was time to set it up, and they could lure enemies back to it. It saw some use in dungeon style environments as they would bunker up, lure enemies to the bunker, advance to another...

New-ish at the time. What usually happens is a trope is used for a while, then it suddenly explodes into popularity, then gets oversaturated. A good trope will then go through decades of falling and rising popularity as it is copied, both poorly and well, fade for a while, and come back again...

Everything you love can be reduced to equally simplistic terms. It's okay to say a setting just doesn't resonate with you. No more or less than Forgotten Realms, Dragonlance, and Greyhawk would be forgotten if they were introduced for the first time today.

Exandria has never been a "unique" setting. Instead, it takes some of the coolest elements of other settings and puts them in one place. It has the Dawn War, the Ring of Siberys, the crashed ruins of Netheril, airships, a savage land full of dinosaurs, a dragon rage, etc. It's also full of...

Oh certainly, I'm happy to let them have their fun, and used to exist in those spaces (very prevalent in freeform RP circles) for many years. Though I will admit to being very mildly triggered when I see trenchcoats, katanas, smirking, substituting i with y, and unnecessary heterochromia. :LOL:

There are definitely places where roleplaying half angel/half dragons/half gods with eyes of 2+ different colors, smirking, you can never understand the darkness of their back story... exist. In large numbers. I'm assuming the phrase "OC community" is referring to something like this? Taliesin...

I always found being easily amused to be a positive thing. You just have more joy in your life. It's like being a lightweight when it comes to drinking alcohol. You get the same buzz for less money. :ROFLMAO:

Imagine if you could Treat Wounds to refresh some HP every hour or so, maybe requiring 10 minutes of the doctor's time? Then you could throw in a feat about delivering emergency Battle Medicine someone could benefit from once a day or so, along with some kind of Doctor's Visitation where you can...

Yep! There are some interesting threads about it.

It's such an awkward situation, because some people who are fans of the first game are more than willing to write some solid dialog for free. Nothing bestseller level, but definitely above the first game.

Dungeons of Drakkenheim is one of the few modules I have absolutely loved, especially for the grim and haunting location based nature. To be transparent, I have always loved location based campaigns, including the spiritual precursor to this, Mordheim and other 'reclaim the town' campaigns like...
