    D&D General On Early D&D and Problematic Faves: How to Grapple with the Sins of the Past

    For one, never watched Usual Suspects nor House of Cards, never appealed to me really, so I guess I can't really say either way. In fact, I don't think I have actually watched anything with him in it. So yes, in that case I can separate the actor from the movies, because if I were to watch it...

    D&D General On Early D&D and Problematic Faves: How to Grapple with the Sins of the Past

    This is what I said, in part anyways, on the other thread and got lambasted for it. I don't care what Gygax did, I don't understand why him being sexist 50 years ago effects me today and the games I run. I had said that yes we should recognize that there were some things of the time that were...

    D&D Historian Benn Riggs On Gary Gygax & Sexism

    Who cares? Why was this thread even needed on here to start with? If you you only wanted a curated response to this post, why bother putting it up. You know full well people are going to argue, but you make it seem like you want no arguments at all. It honestly feels like this was put up as a...

    D&D General Race Has No Mechanics. What do you play?

    I wouldn't play. Race being purely cosmetic just really puts me off. Everyone is good as something on an individual level. Some are better naturally at art than others, some are better naturally at sports than others, some are better at dance naturally than others, some are even better at...

    D&D General Richard Whitters poll on twitter, "Will you be buying the newest edition of D&D?"

    I already said it in my response to the other person that said the same thing:

    D&D General Richard Whitters poll on twitter, "Will you be buying the newest edition of D&D?"

    @Parmandur I agree, why would you spend $80-100 on a book with a $50 MSRP...? Because the 50$ that is in USD is not the same as CAD. To be fair, local game stores have it set at 70 plus taxes as they are made for those stores, but we have book stores that sells these as well here that are not...

    D&D General Richard Whitters poll on twitter, "Will you be buying the newest edition of D&D?"

    I not going to buy it. I already have Tasha's and Xanathar's, as well as some of these fixes I already had as house rules for some class issues. Why am I going to spend another 80-100 dollars on a single book that, in my opinion at the moment, do nothing more than take Tasha's and Xanathar's and...

    D&D 5E When it all goes wrong

    I don't think anything really bad happened here. That sounds like a blast! The party working together so cohesively that they managed to take a dire situation and turn it to their benefit (the short rest to the long rest) and went at a group at full strength. I think it would have been a lot...

    D&D General DALL·E 3 does amazing D&D art

    Question, is this all on the DALL-E 3 thing? I haven't touched anything AI art wise yet and these all look very interesting. If not, what is it you guys are using aside from this ALL-E 3 thing...if that even is an AI art generator lol

    D&D 5E There Will Be No More Hydro74 Alternate D&D Covers

    That sucks, his alt covers were what made me get alt covers. Before, never had an interest in alt covers, for anything really. Never saw the point in them. it's a book, the cover will get worn eventually, might as well just by the regular one. I got ONE of his alt covers as a gift, and I now...

    D&D General D&D Assumptions Ain't What They Used To Be

    I don't get it, what are you upset about this quote? That clearly reads: "Yeah you could go peeping if you want, but the men in this woman's life will absolutely beat you to within an inch of your life in a dark alley somewhere if they got a hold of you; and people will forgive them for it."...

    D&D General Alternate thought - rule of cool is bad for gaming

    If you're the DM, why did you allow it to happen? There's really nothing wrong with "Rule of Cool" it's all in how it's applied. If you didn't want the person with the 5 ft. pole to be able to get up the 30 ft. pillar with it, why did you say he could? You could have easily said" No, the pole...

    D&D General 5.5 and making the game easier for players and harder for DMs

    I'm not sure why they focused on Player's Handbook so much, to be perfectly fair. I'm not saying you can't draw a conclusion, what' I'm saying is that to only read part one of a three part book series and assuming you know how it all ends in the final chapter of the third book just doesn't feel...

    D&D General 5.5 and making the game easier for players and harder for DMs

    I mean...Yes at first glance and hearing the videos, it does sound like they are making the DM's job far harder...but they are only talking about the Players Handbook. At first I thought the same thing, I was pissed at how much harder they were making DMing and it was really disheartening, but...

    D&D 5E Does anyone play 5e Perception rules as written?

    I don't play them as written, no. what's the fun of having darkvision if you can't use it in a fun way, well in my opinion anyways. I mean, sure, my players can't see in the dark completely, they still follow the dim is bright and dark is dim, but I don't do the disadvantage roll. So people...

    D&D 5E Displacer Beast Kitten As A Sidekick?

    That was the first thing I thought of when I saw the kitten lol! Sleight of Hand on small baubles and "toys" and atheltics to see how hard he can launch himself into people to snuggles and head boops! He's going to enjoy the bongos as well, if anyone knows what that means lol! It's going to be...

    D&D 5E Displacer Beast Kitten As A Sidekick?

    Oh, I misread it, I'm sorry on that. Agreed though! I definitely will let you know when the game starts lol! I'll make a separate thread for it.

    D&D 5E Displacer Beast Kitten As A Sidekick?

    OMG! This is CUTE! Thank you for showing me these! Though my bookshelf will probably despise you for yet more books to be shoved onto it LOL! I can get them hardcover and the covers look absolutely adorable!

    D&D 5E Displacer Beast Kitten As A Sidekick?

    Yeah I was thinking the same thing with the Expertise. My DM is pretty easy going for things like that, so far anyways. Apparently this campaign is going to be a tough one, so it's the reason she let me have it in the first place lol. Also agreed for the skills thing! So many other creatures do...
