There is, but even "post-apocalypse but rebuilding with hope for the future" is low on my list of things I want to play. Just personal preference.

Yeah, I'd prefer something like this too. I love the idea of this project, but one post in, the setting became post-apocalyptic, which is my least favorite genre of fantasy. Not trying to rain on anyone's parade, just offering the minority opinion.

For those who haven't seen it, could you summarize?

Even if the artwork is inspired by isekai, I don't think that proves that the game is.

Which aspects of 5E are based on isekai? And is this 2014 5E or 2024?

Does anyone know of a third-party morale system for 5E?

The Tome of Beasts I-III and Creature Codex from Kobold Press. I also sometimes use the Tome of Horrors from Frog God. And, since I'm currently running a campaign in the setting, The Koryo Hall of Adventures (Korean-inspired setting) by Aurelien Lané.

"You're a pirate, George--you even stole my R. R.!"

How are satyrs non-humanoid?

I was thinking more in terms of hyperlinks.

If I were cynical, I'd say they're not concerned about making the books easy to use because they want everyone to use D&D Beyond and/or their new VTT instead.

Responding belatedly to this point. That idea may have crept in somewhere along the way, but it wasn't the reason the thread was started. From the very first post: "Since its release into the Creative Commons by two different companies, 5e is now an open system supported by hundreds of...

So why are you acting like you have to stop playing 5E because you don't want to give WotC money? That's the part I don't get. Maybe you didn't mean to imply that, but that was how it sounded to me when you talked about how RPGs are "a luxury that I can get through hundreds, or possibly...

Right now, you really don't. You can play a pretty complete game from what's in CC, or if you really want the books, you can easily find secondhand copies of the core books. (This is referring to 2014 D&D 5E, of course, but the 2024 version hadn't come out yet when the thread started more than...

But you don't have to pay WotC in order to play D&D. Is the point of the thread.

Someone please feed this poor thing a sandwich!

I think the only thing I use from Tasha's is steady aim for rogues. And I wouldn't fuss if a player wanted to use the floating ASIs, but I don't think anyone has in the groups I run for. Apart from that, it's all pre-Tasha rules.

Out of curiosity (I've been a bit out of the loop), what is the latest WotC action that has caused widespread fan outrage? The most recent one I'm aware of is the Pinkertons thing, but that was a while ago and I wonder if I've missed something.

The "totally stoked kuo-toa" from the 2014 5e MM has achieved meme status among my group:

This is amazing, and I somehow missed it the first time around. Thanks for sharing!
