    D&D General Todd Kenreck Let Go from WotC

    Wow, what I are you talking about here? The AI art issue I remember was from BGoG and it was an artist who had done art for them for years (well before AI was a thing) and then started using AI to enhance, expedite their work. From all accounts WotC was "fooled" by the artist, they didn't try to...

    D&D General Todd Kenreck Let Go from WotC

    I think the writing is equally or even more negatively judged than art. The issue it that for some/many it is easier to spot AI art. However, if they use AI writing and get caught, I think the backlash would be even greater than what happened with the AI modified art.

    D&D General Todd Kenreck Let Go from WotC

    That is possible, I haven't looked into that area as much. That doesn't really change my point though.

    D&D General Todd Kenreck Let Go from WotC

    You never know, but that seems unlikely based on current hires and the high profile nature of D&D. For a 3pp I can see that happening (actually it already has), but WotC gets absolutely grilled when an real artist who the used for years uses an AI tool to touch-up their art. I don't see them...

    D&D General Todd Kenreck Let Go from WotC

    What would that look like in you opinion. I can't even picture what that could realistically mean in the context of D&D.

    D&D General Best D&D product of any edition (non-core book)

    It didn't include the Immortal rules though - so not quite one and done!

    D&D 5E (2024) Man I hate the organization of the 2024 Monster Manual

    It has always been part of the setting choice IMO. Nothing to do with 2024 rules.

    D&D 5E (2024) Man I hate the organization of the 2024 Monster Manual

    don't you mean how all D&D games work? I mean I haven't play D&D without house rules since around 1988+/-

    D&D 5E (2024) Man I hate the organization of the 2024 Monster Manual

    While I generally agree with you (with additional reasons you didn't mention as well - like type lore), I have found it easier to navigate if I know what I want (at times). However, that split second increase in efficiency doesn't come close to making up for all the inefficiency he current...

    Jess Lanzillo Departs Wizards of the Coast

    And you know this how? Do you have insider information? Is this publicly available information I just haven't seen? I mean we know the salary range of the new D&D jobs (200K), but I have no idea what Chris & Jeremy would be making at CR.

    D&D 5E (2024) Anyone else surprised they didn't do a Forgotten Realms Feats, Spells, and Circle Casting UA?

    I was on them all throughout 4e and until they closed. People always have opinions and some feel passionate about them. I never take internet chatter personally, so I guess I never felt much of a difference between the WotC forums and EnWorld.

    D&D 5E (2024) Any ideas for Avatar of Bane? Lvl 10 PCs?

    Depending on how your Myrkul fight went, the CR 21 Archhag reworked as an avatar of bane might work well.

    D&D 5E (2024) Any ideas for Avatar of Bane? Lvl 10 PCs?

    I think the ArchHag from the 2024 MM might be good to look at. It has some interesting curse mechanics that might be a good for an avatar of Bane. Can you remind of your group's level when they took down Myrkul?

    D&D 5E (2024) Any ideas for Avatar of Bane? Lvl 10 PCs?

    That is help, but you still didn't say what type of monster is this supposed to be? A minor challenge, moderate challenge, or serious challenge (potential TPK)

    D&D 5E (2024) Anyone else surprised they didn't do a Forgotten Realms Feats, Spells, and Circle Casting UA?

    I had a lot of fun on the old WotC forums. Before they closed I spent more time there than here.

    D&D 5E (2024) Any ideas for Avatar of Bane? Lvl 10 PCs?

    What is the purpose for the avatar of bane? Should it be a victory for the PCs or a threat of TPK? How many PCs.

    Pathfinder 2E Where to Kickstarter?!

    I know, I checked it out (@Dire Bare provided a link - thank you). I am basically limiting myself to what EnWorld shows me because I don't have time for much else. EnWorld shows me Kickerstarter and Backerkit, not DriveThruRPG. What can I do?! :unsure: Interesting enough I did buy 7 things off...

    Pathfinder 2E Where to Kickstarter?!

    I am not yet a PF fan. I bought the PF2 core books when they came out, but nothing since. I am no likely to stroll through Infinite, but Kickstarter's come to me naturally and would be will to look at some PF2 KS if they came across my desktop.

    D&D 5E (2024) My Most Epic Fight in Years

    I recently had two ideas how to mitigate the impact of bad rolls on boss encounters: Boss has Advantage on all d20 rolls and PCs have Disadvantage. Boss monsters always roll and extra d20 on d20 tests (Boss Advantage) and it stacks with standard Advantage

    Pathfinder 2E Where to Kickstarter?!

    Thanks, I guess that makes sense, but disappointing. I have no knowledge or history with Pathfidner Infinite and will likely never see those products. If they crowdfunded I would be much more likely to see it and possibly purchase something.
