Something that made me go "what?!" was seeing every demihuman get +2/+1 to ability scores but mountain dwarves get +2/+2. I couldn't figure out the reasoning.

After the party kills the first set of goblins, a strange light appears in the sky. Down lands a flying craft and out come weird aliens. "We are the Star Lords of Xeenu, you have passed the test". "Cool". They fly into space where a psychic whale is all "Protect us from the Griim, oh Fight Guys"...

To address your devil's advocate, I'd suggest that the reverse is also true. In a desperate moment when all the enemies are surrounding a character who stayed behind to ensure the party's escape, he could be a hero and "fight defensively" as you say. The rules work both ways. Given how you've...

This. I dig the vibe, love the angle, the style, the colors, the aesthetic, the Arabian look, the non-white portrayal. But the guy's face. I honestly thought he was a construct when I first saw him. His face is just one blobby color and his eyes look dead with no detail anywhere around there...

I've never noticed it was hard to DM. I DMed an entire campaign of lost primes trying to find their way back. All the players were new to the planes so they didn't have to meta-game anything. They were as lost as their characters. By the end of the campaign they were as good cutters as the local...

Sure! Will I ever play it? Unlikely, but I'm definitely down for seeing it. It's got its own brand of weirdness I can respect.

Couldn't care less. I love FR, but where an adventure takes place means nothing, it can take place literally anywhere.

Their forums are just as bad. It's why I ran screaming to here and reddit. Much more palatable.

As a Planescape freak, I only see huge differences between the baatezu and the tanar'ri. To call them the same nullifies the Blood War and a bunch of other awesome stories. Demons and devils are different. Daemons to me fill a role that demons should. If I were to remove any group, I'd remove them.

All I want is weird art, tons of slang, and more of the kookiness in every page. Pretty much just more of the exact same. Planescape is amazing to me in every way.

Sad to see all this gnome hate. I love me some gnomes and have seen them in play many times. Dragonborn however, ugh, talk about a Mary Sue race. I've banned those guys from anything ever.

This whole thread is a series of people being sarcastic, people not getting that, getting sarcastic responses in return, and non-sarcastic replies to THOSE replies. It's a cascading mess of hilarity.

That means 2d12 greataxes. Epic.

I don't mind it myself, but I did notice and definitely had a "huh, look at that" moment. No reach, and it seems like no bonuses or penalties for size either. Unless they're just changes to stats I can't see with a casual glance. I wonder how size affects colossal sized enemies, if at all?

I don't want to be a debby downer but just be wary about that play style. The game can quickly dissolve into a monster hunter situation where they are always looking for new gear and reagents based on whatever they fight. Don't get me wrong, that's AWESOME but it's a lot of work on your part if...

I ran a campaign where this module actually ran in the background of the party's campaign. They'd be in some weird locale and see the modrons marching and meet NPCs from it in passing, etc. Its something I like to do to create a more robust world and make the planes seem more wild and zany, just...

I really like the designer's philosophy, and you can see it in the prose of the game. The Command spell pretty much says "here are the rules, you can use the spell this way for sure" like later editions. But also in the same spell is goes "oh yeah so if your DM is cool with it, he may allow any...

Half expected to see someone arguing (and whining) about this so I could laugh as it sailed over their head. Pleasantly surprised that hasn't happened yet. This reflects my feelings exactly, though to be honest, I've found these forums delightful after originally trying and failing to find...

They should just make a new D&D cartoon altogether. 40th anniversary and all. Get the kids in.

Can't speak for others but I love megadungeons. Ever since I was a kid I remember being fascinated with Undermountain. I was upset when I realized not ever facet of the place was laid out in excruciating detail. Pathfinder just released their first megadungeon the Emerald Spire and I'm really...
