    D&D 5E (2024) You're not planning on getting 2024 D&D? Why is that?

    Then go try 4E. That's plenty different!!!

    D&D 5E (2014) So, I kind of want to stay with 2014 rules. What are my longterm options?

    Isn't the most important thing having people who want to keep using the 2014 rules? Maybe form a secret society???

    D&D General Who shouldn't play D&D

    There's one group of people I should mention. People who can't find a good DM. If people don't want rules to control how the game works, then it'll all be up to DM judgement to make the game work. So naturally a good DM is the most important factor in your D&D game. If you can't find a good...

    D&D 5E (2024) You're not planning on getting 2024 D&D? Why is that?

    1. My group doesn't play 5E. One of the members doesn't like 5E cause its way too light for his taste. 2. Hasbro is a mega Corp, which is bad. 3. I played a good deal D&D already and now want to explore new ideas and games.

    D&D General Who shouldn't play D&D

    Even if they find D&D too gamist for their liking? Becoming a player instead of a DM shouldn't change that desire???

    D&D General Who shouldn't play D&D

    So if a DM can't do that, they shouldn't run D&D? That makes sense. Half the time I see people complain about something, they also refuse to just fix it themselves. PCs too powerful? Just throw more monsters? Rules to gamist? Just replace them with more simulation type ones. Dont like non...

    D&D General Who shouldn't play D&D

    If D&D can't be all things to all people, then that means some people are better off not playing D&D. This thread seeks to identify people who shouldn't play D&D. If you believe that D&D should be for everyone, I already have a thread for that. You can go check it out...

    This is a thread dedicated to making sure everyone can play D&D. Here we can brainstorm how to remove barriers or other factors that prevent people from playing D&D. How can support people so that they can join the D&D world?

    D&D General How to be a Not-Terrible DM: Thoughts on the Upcoming DMG

    So just give the players a pause sign they can use during a session. Whenever someone raises it, you pause the game and explain why you made a ruling in a particular fashion.

    Summer Knights Online (GenCon Online Replacement event)

    I signed up at the last minute so there wasn't many slots left. I did manage to get into a session of the Ennie winning Shadowdark.

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Beyond Article on Crafting

    Of course D&D should have complete crafting rules in the PHB. 4th edition didn't and look what happened to it!

    D&D General Lies, Darn Lies, and Statistics: Why DPR Isn't the Stat to Rule them All

    Sounds like you need to give him a +3 rapier, asap! If you're worried about it making him overpowered, just give it the quality, "all attacks with this weapon draw attacks of opportunity" (or maybe have the weapon have a -4 Con mod) to make it balanced. I'm sure your player will love his new...

    Why not just play the Supernatural Role Playing Game then???

    D&D 4E D&D 4E Post-Mortem

    The last time I ran 4E, it was great! Then again, when your table group is drawn from Enworld, where the greatest TTRPGers on the planet assemble, that's par for the course.
