I’m gonna love that response, because it’s the most thorough I’ve ever received. But I dispute.. He is, from what I’ve watched, the reasonable person on the show, like Picard, like, Janeway, or Chakotay, the center of the show relied on to not be a forking weirdo and represent the reasonable...

The Ferengi were why I just couldn’t stand the show, but will agree they are peak DS9 and why so many of the episodes are unwatchable. Not even that they’re so irritating, but because they’re so obligate irritating. A perfect example of an “other”in TNG where it’s always the Federation that...

Never ceases to amaze me how easy it is to solve the problems of others discussed on the internet. Usually involves them doing something they just refuse to do but which would be super easy for them if they would just do it. Yet, unfortunately, my own challenges are not so simply fixed. Those...

So, not clear from your post if PCs with peasant backgrounds will be using slings, or actual peasants. But I’d just invent the “martial sling” with 1d6 damage. So any PC able to use martial weapons would be proficient, plus create a Shepherd background and provide that one of its benefits is...

Whoops

I wonder if anyone has done a tracking of their neighborhood little free library kiosks? Like go on the same walk every day or a couple times a week for months, a year, and take pictures of the contents, or otherwise monitor those libraries. Be interis To see if they get used, what gets taken...

I think it’s a something that gets glossed over in rules heavy vs rules lite. The presumption in these discussions is that rules heavy is character sheet heavy and that isn’t necessarily the case. You can have a rules heavy game with index card character sheet. PC says “I’m strong, and...

What gets me in most of these discussions is that what people want IS available, IS being produced, and in quantities that exceed what was available at the time it was originally popular. In the TTRPG space, now is nearly literally the best of all possible worlds. Scads of new games, and tons...

I’ve skimmed it a few times. It seemed like a hugely boring slog with little point as written. Not a bad dungeon map wise, but lame story/population wise. There were reasons to do it, but those reasons didn’t much persist, little compelling reason to keep doing it. It’s not constantly...

Kua-Toa. They’re essentially fish goblins for power, but so thematically interesting. First, they’re all insane due to mind flayer forkery. So nothing they do, in combat or for their plans has to be bound by rationality, you can, and should, run them bizarrely. And, each clan of them can be...

I was a fussy/picky/opinionated eater until I did freshman year in the dorms, in the 90s, at a state uni, before anyone cared about about making it a good experience. Other similars went one of two ways, some refused, ate a crap ton of cereal, I said, whelp, guess this is what I’m eating...

I got my wife Lego flowers for Valentine’s Day. “Hi honey, only 4 hours of assembly time for your flowers”. She loved it. Amazon listings for them are funny, “fake flowers” oh really?

Seriously, why are people on this forum so obsessed with talking about RPGs all the time… ;)

If one of those doors smells like an ogre, why are we still talking about it. Edit: if neither does…I don’t want to play. Edit: I think it’s my face that smells like hot wings, not the back of your neck.

Oh, wizards are great? I dnno, it’s like people make these lists as if everyone is running their PCs solo against a static AI solo. And sure for some playstyles I’m sure it holds. But if I’m DMing against a “super powerful” Wizard and “weak” Barbarian, the encounters and narrative they meet...

Yep, tell us about them. Not only the right place, but the best place. Maybe not the most positive happy place, but the best place if you want feedback from people that have played or read every system there is.

Seems like the forum moderator job would get a lot easier if you just put all the problem people on ignore.

Oh wow someone with more authority than me saying what I’ve been saying and getting ignored on (or maybe wanting to say but just rolling my eyes and not saying) for so long. That DnD exists is not a secret to anyone playing BG3, did it maybe motivate a couple to get back into it, sure. But on...

Cause the only thing people love on pizza more than snails is probably raw snails.

If at all possible I would like my next career move, and consequently my job performance for the past 30 years, to be debated and criticized on EnWorld for a few weeks. That would be great, thanks.
