And then you get DCC Lankhmar and they aren't very Lankhmarry, only Greyhawk is Lankhmarry.

Not only Red Wizards but hinted at Venger as well.

Not 100% true. Some conversion documents for 3.0 to 3.5 rules were almost as big as the original product. Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil essentially would have needed a rewrite to work with 3.5 and the nerfing of spells essentially undermined City of the Spider-Queen. The changes were so...

and Cthulhu 1st-6th edition were all minor tweaks each time as well. Even 7th is essentially the same game with less complicated mathing. It's an edition but also, its not 6e. Its like AD&D2e Revised but not uglier than a Rob Zombie movie.

All of those platforms report heavy financial losses every year and scaled back and canceled most of their projects to get to profitability outside of Amazon which is supported by their Prime members subscriptions which has been around for longer and their inhouse cloud services which host a...

Outside of the OGL fiasco? I am a big fan of the folks that work on D&D, heck I love Hasbro for Marvel Legends and Transformers. The people who work on these three properties obviously love what they do for a living. Especially the WOTC team as they DO largely work independently of Hasbro...

this reads more like an advertisement than a genuine post. like a 4e advertisement even. I hope you like your game.

OK I picked mine up Saturday. I can't say I was wrong but I was right. My original prediction was that it would be a slightly reworked version of 5e with new layout, tweaked main classes and added subclasses and new art. A complete refresh top to bottom and I was right. There isn't enough to...

Looks like Neverwinter Nights tweaked... not sure I like it.

You mean like Chris Perkins who has been around since the TSR days??

It's late 2e, 3.x.

P1: Generally the number of adventures needed is roughly equivalent to the level (except for 1st, 2 adventures) in my experience but depending on the encounter difficulty it is 1-3 XP per encounter. Leveling isn't random, much like D&D you can control it. I plan my adventures out based on the...

Did I say it did make it alright? My comment literally did not say it was alright. In fact I said it was not.

Not only his sexism but was an acceptable joke at that time in popular culture. So it was an inherent cultural phenomenon.

It's a fair article but I have one point of contention: Tiamat is a Sumerian goddess, she was a dragon and she personified chaos so Gygax and Kuntz were following actual mythology with the Queen of the Dragons. Doesn't take away from the idea it is inherently sexist but they chose a goddess who...

The 3e FRCS is another great example, Kingdoms of Kalamar as well. Golarion is well done in original Pathfinder. Wildemount, Taldorei are also great examples. Pretty much the majority of the 5e setting books, including the SCAG. I really like the SCAG. Usually though it is the smaller...

Greyhawk is my favorite D&D setting and yeah joy is not the word for it! It was practical to the point of asking “did Ben Stein write this in the voice of his Ferris Bueller character?”

Greyhawk offers a lot. Beyond the 50th anniversary it is also a setting where immense depth can be explored and exploited in 24-32 pages. It’s easy to make your own as a DM. It’s darker with more comparison to The Witcher than to Tolkien without being overwhelming and it has those shades of...

I offer for your consideration that the book, The Living Greyhawk Gazetteer was a boring read that I slogged through. I enjoyed the Journal but the book was boring, offered nothing really and the little thin Gazetteer that they put out a few months before was a much better presentation. Had...

We did an all in so yes it was close to $200
