I think that the survey question & answer options leaves interpretation to a realm I think is probably a bit too subjective on what... -

Haha.
I voted 2. My games are a lot of 5-room dungeons and short adventures with a few towns and places along the path where the PCs can... -

The problem here is that with two tests that must be achieved to sneak, it makes it a lot harder for the stealthy PC. Now try to handle...

Silam replied to the thread D&D General D&D Evolutions You Like and Dislike [+].It’s a sensible argument, but in practice I do not think it was really a problem. Let me explain… The problem would be significant if...

Silam replied to the thread D&D General D&D Evolutions You Like and Dislike [+].I’m personally torn on this one. On one hand, I recognize that it streamlines the pace of the game. But on the other hand, I feel like...

I mean, the characters typically get a Long Rest every day, but during adventures that's not very often. Most of my adventures take...

The bandits and goblins have explicitly attacked travelers on the trail. (Those cakes are probably not being carried through the woods.)...

How dangerous is that trek, though? Because can't they largely stick to the trail where the encounters aren't all that violent on the...
