WotC dropped the ball on tie-ins. Starter set, dice sets, DM screens are all low hanging fruit. It is literally putting a variant cover on a box. Slightly higher level of effort would be a starter set with the heroes of the film as mentor characters in a new entry level Neverwinter adventure...

I find fun disagrees with my digestion. So I have to limit how much fun I can handle in a day. Still I made this trailer part of my recommended daily allowance.

That quasit on the regular cover is darn ugly and the forced perspective is off somehow to me. The alt cover is fine, it is just really boring. 13 unconnected heist adventures is already a low interest item for me. The example posted above does not fill me with interest to mine the book for...

I think they may have a hit movie. The CGI has come a long way. Seeing Red Wizards, Displacer Beasts and Owlbears heavily featured in a big budget movie trailer is an experience I never thought I would see.

Pending OGL outcomes... Phandelver: I enjoyed Lost Mines immensely and would like to see what they will do with a bigger canvas from that strong base. Glory of Giants: I am curious where they are going to go with Giants since Storm Kings Thunder I am meh on the rest of the offerings.

Right, even if the D&D movie draws a huge portion of the player base, it will need to appeal to general audiences to make it a smash. The OGL debacle will be meaningless if D&D takes off in a movie series. Wizbro can write off the TTRPG at that point. How big is the design and development team...

Spell-less Ranger Good for OwlCat

Agenda doesn't mean lying, but everyone's perception is different. And this shift in policy/strategy cuts some beliefs in gaming cross-grain.

Is that all you have to offer, Morrus, facts and pragmatism? This salacious bit of news just reinforced my preconceived notion that Official 5E psionics are being repressed by someone very high up in the company! It is enough that I crumpled my tinfoil hat... Now I have to make a new one.

And yet none of that was influencing you to call them 'shills'. Again I disagree with supporting WotC for their actions and words, but we don't need to be dismissive. It costs nothing and if they add no new information or argument you can safely ignore them.

Sure. That's what Cyberdyne Systems wants you to think.

Guys can we not call people who disagree with us 'shills'? WotC produces D&D, a game which we all love or at least tolerate enough to comment endlessly about it. Some people do not care about the OGL (or do not consider it a deal breaker) and just want to have their game. Some people want some...

I am skipping a bunch of pages of discussion here... Apologies if I missed some of the debate over definitions of lying, cyberstalking, and gaslighting. I see we are conflating two separate issues there is broad dislikefor in the community. Problem the first, revoking a contract unilaterally...

Yay Paizo! I feel a goblin song about to burst from my lips. I am not a fan of Pathfinder rules wise but I will be grabbing a beginners box to show solidarity for keeping Open Gaming development alive.

I am happy to see KP and MCDM looking to a world without needing OGL 1.1. Even if their discussions lead to keeping OGL 1.0a, the conversation and brainstorming could lead down interesting paths. I will be watching with great interest and signed up for notification about Black Flag. Also, thank...

The trap is baited... I can not resist. Psionics are an internal supernatural power. Previous incarnations of psionics in D&D have been an add-on for liars or the exceptionally lucky (AD&D), a spell point system with wildly unbalanced elements (2E), a spell point system that was similar to...

I will wait until the 13th to decide when WotC releases to the public. IF it is close to what has been reported/leaked, I will not spend another dime on WotC/Hasbro products, including the movie. I will finish my DM duties to a couple on-going public campaigns at the local library and will pack...
