It seems to me on the surface that a deity of love would either be the creator of love that set it loose upon mortals or the one who actively imposes it on mortals. Seldom if ever do we decide to have feelings. Often we do not even want them or anticipate them. In that vein subversion of the...

How many D&D fans are out there? How many RPG fans are out there? I would target D&D players and DM’s in one magazine. Next time you visit a grocery store count how many magazines hit a niche. Cars, Guns, Fitness, Guitar playing and so on. I wouldn’t buy every release of DRAGON REBORN but I...

I love and hate dungeon crawls. I love the idea. The execution is where it tends to fail. Even if the dungeon itself is masterfully crafted it can fail. Players can mess it up. DM’s can jam it up pretty good too.

I went with wild magic sorcerer. Using it’s abilities can really mess you up. In the case of other sub classes, they might not be optimal, wild magic is detrimental. Some subclasses might underperform based on setting or campaign conceits.

Interesting, back in the day I always wanted to limit players to the core books. I think your idea is better.

I voted for Willow. Then Hawk the Slayer. Last was other because I didn’t see Krull. They aren’t the best but IMO the most D&D without being the inspiration for D&D. Though I love Krull and Willow. I have others I like better. Like Predator.

If you make encounters too easy people don’t use their abilities that recharge on a rest mechanic. If you make them too hard they nova and feel like they need to rest.

I have to admit that flumph is resilient.

You need a slaad spinner. A little salt some fresh water and zing.

You’re right! I thought I had upvoted the eye tyrant. How do I correct that without looking like a cheater?

When I say generic I mean the class itself. 1e and 2e clerics seemed to be the same. From equipment to spells all the same. I get that some people don’t feel that way. But I played these games for more than a decade and I remember exactly one cleric. Mechanics wise exactly like the rest rp-wise...

They are back to being generic in 5e.

Canon is okay until it gets to my table. When exposed to my ability to misunderstand and forget (or selectively remember) it disintegrates like cotton candy being washed in a puddle.

Let the mods mod.

Where I have played an ran. FR ( i know well ) Eberron ( pretty neat ) Greyhawk ( little too something) Homebrew Ravenloft ( good but so specific takes more buy in by players ) Planescape ( i do not like the planes ) and Mystara ( the best )
