Yeah, I’m not that much of a role player to concern myself with whether I can get into the head of a non-human character, and I’m not gonna really try. I’m going to have fun playing the character I want to play, first and foremost.

Based on your descriptions, you don’t have to.

So, I’m getting ready to play Shadow of the Weird Wizard and have been reading the first chapter which goes into the setting and gods a bit, and I’m really glad our DM is using the rules for a completely different campaign because if this were indicative of the actual campaign setting, I’d be...

One PC I had was just from a family of adventurers - all still alive and a loving family but my character was just following in mom and dad’s footsteps with Dad saying go off and explore the world while Mom was more concerned about all the loose ends from her adventuring days that might rear...

My personal preference right now for a new setting is something modern - I’d love a D&D “setting” that basically puts D&D in the “real world” - scare quotes because all the same caveats around not dealing with real world politics if one didn’t want to apply. I was kind of toying with a New York...

Glad we agree there’s no problem here.

That was literally the first song on my Xmas playlist today! 😆

I’m just going to go back to my original point that you quoted: as much as I like new settings, and would be fine if they made one, I’m not convinced there needs to be one created specifically for the reasons of showcasing 5e mechanics - because at this point, 11 years past the debut of 5e...

The most recent edition change was last year, which is why I say it wasn’t much different.

It still comes down to a social interaction issue. As well as recognition that it’s ultimately a game.

So you see the issue as the DM could conceivably approve or deny the use of game components? That can happen with virtually anything. I mean, I was using Dhampirs from the VRGR in other campaigns. I know other DMs who brought shifters from Eberron into other campaigns. This notion of “locked”...
