The worst of 5th edition: It's not swingy enough. The best of 5th edition: Everything else!

Hi guys, Can I give away free copies of a DM's Guild product to reviewers? The terms and conditions seems to say I can't but I would appreciate it if someone could confirm this. I was also thinking about giving a few copies of a product to people that like my Facebook page. If I do this before...

I stick to the rules as written. If the characters are squeezing, they have disadvantage on their attack rolls. I understand why someone might want to adjudicate in this situation but it's a level of detail I don't want to bother with.

It could also explain why the warlord didn't make it either.

I just love the Adventurer's League :). They blew up Elmwood. Are there any other small settlements around the Moonsea?

Hi guys, I'm looking for information on the Moonsea area (post Sundering). Do you guys have any ideas where I might find such information? More specifically, I'm looking for a brief update of what happened in the cities and villages of the Moonsea and who the evil organizations are. I'm also...

I'm not bitter about it :). I had a great time talking to the other D&D fans in the forums even though it didn't matter much. My bad. If they only scanned the forums, it kind of explains why they were so far off the mark with the tactical and hit point modules. A lot of those ideas were...

Good luck Mike!

It kind of makes sense. By this logic, does it mean you can have a Patreon account to finance free DM's Guild products?

I would stick with what the PHB says and let the gnome wizard research new spells during his downtime. A wizard can work fine with 6 spells per level. He won't be as versatile as your player would like but that's what the campaign is about, isn't it? You might want to make sure your players...

I suppose you could add hit points, tactical combats, "freak" races, and warlords to this list. I think you're right. They probably identified what was "too controversial" in the online discussions. I remember Emerikol pestering Mr. Mearls about hit points on twitter over and over again :).

You confused yourself. And you're wrong. You misinterpreted what I was saying. Here are the posts with the explanations. I haven't change my stance, I only explained my position in my last posts because you and some other posters misinterpreted the first ones. Post #7: "There was a lot of...

I'll try one last time and then I'll give up :). It's not that difficult really. I never said or implied that the designers didn't listen to what we had to say. I said that if we wanted to give our opinion, we had to do it in the surveys. I never said or implied that the opinion of people...

You don't seem to understand what I'm saying. I can use simpler words or translate what I said in Spanish or French if that can help

Except I don't...

I don't really understand what gave you the impression that I was saying that the internet voices were ignored or that some peoples' opinions should matter more. In my opinion, the only thing that influenced the game designers' decisions were the survey results. I don't think any of the...

Why do you guys have the impression that I'm saying it's a bad thing :). I think it was a good decision to ignore the howler monkeys' opinions! But people shared more than opinions, they also shared ideas. Some of these ideas were really good. Some were possibly better than the ones they came...

You're absolutely right. I clearly remember he said he preferred skill dice but he had to ditch them (and that they would be an optional module in the DMG). I'm not saying Mr Mearls got what he wanted! I'm just saying that he only used the surveys to make his decisions and that the online...

I can see why it doesn't make sense to you :). I wasn't exactly clear and I made a few assumptions. Mr Mearls justified every one of his decisions with the survey results. I assumed it was clear that this was the only data he was interested in. In other words, he ignored what people were saying...
