    I was stating a fact, not making a judgement.

    D&D 5E (2024) How did I miss this about the Half races/ancestries

    D&D 5E (2014) Telekinesis Is A Bad Spell, For The Game

    That would be a lot of fun as long as they crank the monsters up to 12 in the process.

    D&D 5E (2024) How did I miss this about the Half races/ancestries

    I was thinking in broader terms about mixing and tracking all of the rule changes between the two versions, not just the species. I should have specified that in my OP.

    D&D 5E (2024) How did I miss this about the Half races/ancestries

    I guess to me it would seem like a headache. But if others want to mix and match, more power to them.

    D&D 5E (2024) infinite time and money

    I can't imagine playing it constantly, so I would say 2x per week.

    D&D 5E (2024) How did I miss this about the Half races/ancestries

    Yes, but from a practical standpoint, no DM (who doesn't want a headache) is going to mix and match the different versions depending on player preference.

    D&D 5E (2024) infinite time and money

    Sure, it's possible to get burned out, even if you don't have infinite time and money. But that's a hard question to answer because everyone has a different threshold. But aside from quantity of play, making changes to the rules that people don't like could be a motivating factor, but then...

    What are you reading in 2023?

    Just finished "Fall of Hyperion", and was excited to get to the 3rd book "Endymion". But then I read a number of reviews that claimed that it was just one long chase scene, and the characters were not well developed.

    D&D 5E (2024) The impending mess that will be backwards compatibility

    I'm pretty sure my group of grognards will be able to resist! :)

    D&D 5E (2024) The impending mess that will be backwards compatibility

    I can see that they're trying to make everyone happy, but it's going to lead to a lot of frustration and confusion.

    D&D General What *is* D&D? (mild movie spoilers)

    To me, D&D will always be the traditional Medieval/Renaissance fantasy. However, I can can understand why content creators like the idea of an "everything and the kitchen sink" world - simply because it gives them a much larger canvas to work with.

    TV show Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Starts Production in 2024

    I think it's a solid concept, but 32nd century is just too far.

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Meets Minecraft

    There are many free "texture packs" available that increase the resolution of the game. Some are (close to) photo realistic.

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Meets Minecraft

    Most Minecraft DLCs are fairly inexpensive $3-$7. I wonder how much this one will be.

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D's Upcoming Digital Tabletop

    One thing it doesn't appear to have is a fog of war to cover things the players shouldn't be able to see.

    "Thing you can engage with" instead of "things you can buy".:rolleyes: The monetization has begun.
