    D&D General Ed Greenwood's $5K Contract To Sell The Forgotten Realms

    IMHO different kind of talent and different effort distribution in time. And anyway your "as if" is definitely not what I'm saying.

    D&D General Ed Greenwood's $5K Contract To Sell The Forgotten Realms

    To write lore you need talent. Talent costs. Costs erode profit. Better sell rules.

    D&D General The First Map of the Forgotten Realms

    — Alex Kammer Yes, exactly the thing I'm missing since loooong time. I wonder if we will live long enough to see something like this again.

    D&D General FR Products by Dale Reckoning

    Hi all. I'm cataloguing all the FR products and one of the biggest difficulties is to place them inside the timeline. Do you know if somebody has already done this? It would be very helpful, thank you!

    D&D 5E D&D Shabby Italian Translations

    Already done, but infinite thanks for your precious advice. In this forum the topic is this: Given that this forum is frequented by people of all nations, in particular Germany, French and Spanish who have in their hands the new translations, I'm really curious to know if the translations in...

    D&D 5E D&D Shabby Italian Translations

    Planes as Pianure Beholder as Onnivedente Features as Privilegi are some examples of error with a single word. There are an enormous amount of phrases that are syntactically inconsistent. And last but not least, some technical or lore-related terms completely uncoherent with a 30+ years...

    D&D 5E D&D Shabby Italian Translations

    This morning I realized how much WOTC is completely unrespectful of its costumers in Italy. The last translated manual, Guida di Van Richten a Ravenloft seems clearly translated by a software and maybe revised by an english speaking guy without experience with D&D, who knows italian because is...

    D&D 5E Toward a new D&D aesthetics

    This demonstrate how it is impossible to come to an agreement about those things, giving subjective perception jointed with semantic ambiguity of all terms involved. Aside, I find the second even disturbing flat in perspective.

    D&D 5E Toward a new D&D aesthetics

    I'd like to punctualize that illustrations are organic part of a rpg book, so judging this kind of products ALSO by those is not being superficial. Your decision to buy it or not is legitimately influenced by art. For instance, I will buy radiant because I'm curious of different cultural...

    D&D 5E Toward a new D&D aesthetics

    Unfortunately many mod action taken against me are highly questionable and many times has been decided to categorize as racist instead to kill the problem in the cradle, just in case. And also there is a problem with metaphores, sometimes taken to the letter. I'm trying to understand and learn...

    D&D 5E Toward a new D&D aesthetics

    If i feel that something is childish, I can try to deconstruct the term splitting it into a long series of adjective and to find them I need to go to a translation site and find them in english. It's a little bit hard now I answer you by smartphone and I'm in a car and the result will be...

    D&D 5E Toward a new D&D aesthetics

    Difference in perception are real. But aside from clumsy use of english, my position is not a misunderstanding of racism issues. My position is against the tactic used to fight it. In my opinion is wrong tactic for a good strategy. I strongly believe that charging the writer for the perception...

    I do not compare anything. I've sad that those illustration style make ME think about my daughter. I find it childish and this is a personal feeling. If it is offensive I can be sorry but the thing remains the same. I'm not saying that if you like it you are as a child.

    So, if you were rich enough to commission your own illustration without effort, or simply you close the eyes and imagine your fantasy world, you would choose something different, right?
