    D&D 2E Is 5e Basically Becoming Pathfinder 2e?

    Options are nice to have as a DM too. More options gives me more stuff I can mine or tweak when creating homebrew material.

    D&D 2E Is 5e Basically Becoming Pathfinder 2e?

    I have my fair share of restrictions, especially when I'm running a game in one of my homebrew settings (which is usually the case), and I'm always up-front with people about what those restrictions are. Being up-front about it is the best way to be. You avoid people showing up attached to...

    Check Out The Forge Domain From Xanathar's Guide

    Looks good. It's not exciting, but it's a solid domain. I've just added it as one of the domains that can be granted by my setting's goddess of war/trade/smiths. As for the art, I can't say I have a problem with it. The weapon and armor look very heavily embellished, as if ceremonial (or...

    D&D 5E So...Volo, Xanathar...who's next?

    I could see that as well, but I think that would undervalue the things you could put into a Van Richten's book. I'd make it more broadly based than just undead. Something like Van Richten's Guide to Monster Hunting. Apart from the charm and overall pleasant presentation of the AD&D 2e Van...

    D&D 5E Homebrew Cleric Domain: LGBT Domain (Positive & Respectful)

    OP: Good for you for being creative. However, I can't say I like the domain you've created. The whole combined safe-spaces and rainbows theme makes it feel too much like a caricature of pro-LGBT activism. Not to say that was your intention (because I can't know what your intent was, because I...

    D&D 5E So...Volo, Xanathar...who's next?

    Well, not "anyone." If it is a magic item book, it probably won't be a Van Richten's Guide. Probably the only Ravenloft personality I could see fitting with a magic item book would be the darklord of Darkon. An Azalin's Vault of Wonders kind of thing.

    Pre-Order DLC comes to D&D with Xanathar's Guide to Everything

    Yes and no. There are free items (and I do mean free, not pay-what-you-want) that I have gotten from DM's Guild. I have also bought PDFs of the AD&D 2e core books from DM's guild, but then again I used to own paper copies of those before I lost them in a move several years ago, so I can't...

    Pre-Order DLC comes to D&D with Xanathar's Guide to Everything

    Not at all. I may disagree with some of the things that you've said now and again, but I don't think you're stupid. Look, this is your house. I come here to converse about D&D, and to get new ideas from other peoples experiences and homebrew creations, not to be a jerk to anyone. If you feel...

    Pre-Order DLC comes to D&D with Xanathar's Guide to Everything

    It sure is. And I quoted it below as well. I said Kickstarter is immensely stupid. Kickstarter is not a person. I said that paying for a thing before you see the quality of it is immensely stupid. That's an act, not a person. People who are otherwise smart can and do say and or do...

    Pre-Order DLC comes to D&D with Xanathar's Guide to Everything

    Agree to disagree on that one. I don't honestly believe you'll convince me on that (I don't honestly believe anyone truly convinces anyone of anything on the internet) and have no desire to attempt to change your mind on the subject (again, not that I think I actually could). Every place I've...

    Pre-Order DLC comes to D&D with Xanathar's Guide to Everything

    I don't know much of anything about roll20, I've only ever played with pencils and paper. I don't judge those who use apps and programs to play, but it's not my thing. But, if roll20 makes you purchase game content you already own then yes, they should be giving discounts to people who already...

    Pre-Order DLC comes to D&D with Xanathar's Guide to Everything

    If you're going to put your money down sight-unseen, you deserve a risk premium, maybe even an equity interest (depending on how much you're putting down): that's how investment works. Kickstarter says, "No, no, ignore all that sound business and financial decision-making. Have this promise of...
