I stomp all over everything. I've had Druids that describe their powers just like Sorcerers, always sticking with the same spells even though the mechanics say they can change them daily, just to reinforce the Sorcerer vibe. Likewise, I've had Warlocks extensively study and learn to make pacts...

Dear WotC, I am officially asking you to sell me the core books again with mechanical updates and new art!

Having a glossary of precisely-defined terms is exactly what PF2E did, and look how many people bounce off that. I literally can't get enough people interested in playing, and the sheer density of the conditions list is among the reasons why. And that's while having a waiting list of more than a...

For better or worse, it is my repeated experience that precise wording requires increasingly lengthy rules to account for multiple situations. And the result of such long blocks of precise wording is TL;DR mental blue screen of death for increasing amounts of players. The holy grail would be...

There is no specific rule about Petrification preventing starvation, the same way there is no rule that says you go Unconscious when you lie down for bed every night. You just have to wing it.

Sanctuary on one chap and walk them in as an ambassador. Works... on about 90% of honor mode fights.

Not having to do dishes would also be amazing. But now I'm wondering about the impact of goodberry on latrine usage. Not normally something to worry about in a fantasy game, but fascinating to consider in general.

Everyone sits on the ground to increase their healing and mana regeneration.

I'm imagining rolls for camping monsters, pulling them, avoiding trains, and how many other adventurers are in the dungeon with you right now. :D

Everyone simultaneously with the Polyamory mod and a Minthara mod. My endless thirst for content demanded I recruit everybody, and see all romances! Minthara's romance was borked at the time, though.

Nooo! July 8th is your sacred day. It's too soon, tooo sooooon...

Increase to 1 mile, let it go through objects. Proficiency times per day.

To be fair, when the best person in the world at a skill contributes a smaller bonus than a d20, your character choices can feel very muted. Of course, the nature of compromise often leaves both sides feeling uneasy.

The most memorable battle IMO is

I agree here. Sure Secret's long tunnels were the Deep Roads long before Dragon Age, but that wizard/draconian spam could one shot your characters and that was negative fun coming from endless trash fights. I wish every gold box game used set numbers of encounters. I love it when games do that.

We need the opposite meme where the NPC IS trustworthy, but the players never trust anyone ever.

It's not even this game, but I'm interested to see the

Also an odd name for a turtle. 🐢

The early series games were great about this kind of thing, and running defense or counter controlling to keep your own people alive was great fun. Things get much less fun come Darkness or Dark Queen where any given trash encounter came with multiple casters that could one shot kill your...
