    Is it possible that 2nd edition could make a very popular come back?

    Bearing in mind what you, or any one person in their community, sees is highly anecdotal and has little or little or no bearing on the whole.

    An Open Letter to Fantasy Flight and Cubicle 7 -- Cut the "Foreplay" and Give Us the Good Stuff

    This isn't the same as asking why Yoda and Obi Wan aren't playable out of the box. You can start the game as a force user, but don't pretend the game is somehow deficient because you aren't Mace gawddamned Windu from character creation.

    An Open Letter to Fantasy Flight and Cubicle 7 -- Cut the "Foreplay" and Give Us the Good Stuff

    You understand asking this question in the context of "A New Hope" would be like asking your Forgotten Realms DM why you can't play Elminster. Yeah, why can't you play the uber-powerful character that's already mastered the mystic arts of the setting. Maybe that's why they split the party, you...

    Numenera RPG

    Really, I backed the Kickstarter. I am really looking forward to it as well... but, that's a bit of an exaggeration. Or you honestly don't have that much experience with RPGs.

    How Do You Prefer To Buy Your RPG Products?

    Prefer, I prefer brick and mortar. However, the owner of the only LGS in my area is a total dong. Hence, I do most of my purchasing online.

    [MHR] Marvel RPG Discontinued, PDF sales ending next week

    While I can't speak for everyone, these are the reasons I wasn't a fan. To be fair, the story arc thing didn't bother me all that much. It's not that they weren't railroads (they were), but I rarely use published adventures anyway. The character/character creation thing was a serious problem...

    D&D 5E (2014) Second Wind: Yes or No?

    Sure, nothing wrong with what you're proposing. I personally feel they shouldn't be in the core at all, but there's no reason it shouldn't be on one of the "Dials".

    D&D 5E (2014) Second Wind: Yes or No?

    I don't disagree, but I don't see anything wrong with an option to add it for people who want it.

    D&D 5E (2014) Second Wind: Yes or No?

    4e PHB Page 15, thumbnail titled: Attack Powers and Utility Powers. ... Daily Powers are so dramatic and powerful that you can use each only once per day. 4E PHB Page 54 A daily power can be used once a day. So a second wind, that can be used more than once a day is... Regardless of the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Second Wind: Yes or No?

    Book says once per encounter, making it... In the cases where it's a power with a special set of situations there's a (special) to denote it. Again, regardless of the tied resource it's an encounter power, and again, not what I want in the new edition.

    D&D 5E (2014) Second Wind: Yes or No?

    Neither fella, those are spell slots. But again, you're the smartest, most hansom man to ever throw dice. None of that changes the way I voted. One second wind a day. However, please continue with this semantic argument. I find your attempts to convince me endlessly entertaining.

    D&D 5E (2014) Second Wind: Yes or No?

    I know, you're the rightest guy I know. And only you truly understand all that is D&D. I bow to your superior knowledge of what I think would be acceptable in the upcoming version, and the realities of 4e. A billion pardons master. Dope, all that said, I can go back to knowing second wind is an...

    Not tired of pretending yet, OK, have fun with that.

    D&D 5E (2014) Second Wind: Yes or No?

    Your argument is grasping. If you have the option to do it more than once daily, it ceases to be a daily (with the exception of very few examples). The ridiculous manner in which you're attempting to frame this discussion would mean everything in 4e is a daily. Yeah, at-wills, yeah their a...

    D&D 5E (2014) Second Wind: Yes or No?

    Well, yes and no. In 4e second winds are per encounter. Being a big fan of 4e, there was too much access to healing for me. Star Wars Saga had the "second wind" as a "Daily" and in my opinion that was the sweet spot for the self-heal.

    D&D 5E (2014) Second Wind: Yes or No?

    I say optional, and even then only daily.

    D&D 5E (2014) metamagic feats

    In the most recent Rule of Three, someone suggested using a similar mechanic to expertise dice for spellcaster's metamagic feats. Rodney... kind of said... no. But, I don't know. I wouldn't suggest the (say) wizard class having the expertise dice built into the class as a feature. I...
