    Goodman Games Revives Relationship With Anti-Semitic Publisher For New City State Kickstarter [UPDATED]

    I think I read somewhere that around 50% of those following a project end up backing it yep, it’s more a ‘keep me in the loop’ There is little correlation between what I back and what I follow

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    can you to the point of performing Telekinesis? otherwise I am not sure your real-world experience counts ;)

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    we will first have to agree that it is a bad rule, so far it is mostly about personal taste

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    what about third parties observing the caster? I want it as clear to them as to the target. It also doesn’t address the restraint part…

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    I can ignore the material spell components, but just ‘thinking’ with no gestures is a ‘no’ from me. It should be obvious who is ‘casting the spell’ and being restrained should have the same preventative effect as for spellcasters

    D&D General The First Demise of TSR: Gygax's Folly

    being a successful artist is very different from running a successful company. In the former case you are not really employing your friends & family as employees of the company (i.e. expect them to generate enough money to 'pay for themselves'), you give them handouts because you expect the good...

    D&D 5E (2024) Where to next, WotC?

    well, I certainly would be curious about a 5e Dark Sun book, so let's hope you called it correctly ;)

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    huh, did not realize they changed it, stopped caring about UAs halfway through the 2024 ones…

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    the lesson is give 1s and 5s only, everything else leaves too much up for interpretation… the ‘nuance’ has to come from the fact that you are not the only one filling out the survey

    D&D General The First Demise of TSR: Gygax's Folly

    I don’t know, to me that sounds like you overestimate Gygax or underestimate yourself, imo he did pretty poorly, below average (at running a business)

    D&D 5E (2024) Where to next, WotC?

    you can get psionics without having to also get Dark Sun. Is there anything in the UA that explicitly ties it to DS / an upcoming DS product?

    feels pretty premature for calling it...

    Judges Guild Makes Statement About Goodman Controversy [Updated]

    I have no idea how much work they did, it’s not like the books / pdfs are available right after the KS, so I would expect much of the work is still ahead of them and the three years were mostly spent on the content of other KS. Yes, GG will have to eat some costs if they cancel the KS, that is...

    Judges Guild Makes Statement About Goodman Controversy [Updated]

    My understanding is that Goodman always intended to refund the backers but forgot to mention that in the initial announcement. JG is not in the loop here, so they cannot change their mind, the money goes to a third party arbiter

    Judges Guild Makes Statement About Goodman Controversy [Updated]

    I believe that this is how most people see it, acting in good faith / to preserve CSIO but with that priority being absolutely misguided. The problem is what they have to do for this, goodwill only gets you so far. You can have been a good neighbor for years, if one day you suddenly beat me up...

    D&D 5E (2014) For those playing 2014 5e, how are you reacting to the 2024 update?

    there are plenty of other classes and subclasses out there, that WotC keeps on upping the power level is definitely on them, whether from lack of imagination or some other reason

    I am surprised I am still excited for Daggerheart

    I wouldn’t read anything into it other than D&D being the dominant game
