I at least wish their cut was flat, not a percentage. "Oh! You want to give more? Okay, we'll take that!"

Tactician. The Astarion thing... I kill him.

Was Minsc not on the list? Karlach, natch. Shadowheart and her slightly evil, mostly tragic self. Jahiera, for the mom vibe. Minthara for the "Mom's hot friends I'm afraid of" vibe. I've started BG3 like nine times and only once has Astarion lived to see Baulder's Gate.

Some of that looks interesting, but I don't want to give Frog God any money.

If it helps, M, I'm there with you. Video games are fun and all, and BG3 in really good in the depth of choice and how it interacts with those choices... but it still ain't a role-playing experience. You need people for that.

I voted 1. If you'd asked if they affect my buying choices, it'd be a five. But they won't stop me from play the game I've love since childhood. They have no impact on that, only whether I buy new stuff from them.

Halsin is Woof Elf, and he addresses his size if you get the right dialogue option. He's at least aware he's an Elf Of Unusual Size.

I turned 57 a few months back. But aside from a few months in the late 90s where I tried to "Grow up and be responsible" (My wife made me stop that, said it was painful how miserable I was), I've gamed since I was 12. Prior to me stroke in July, I was running five games a week. People said I...

I'm an old (middle-class, white, male, cis) gamer, and I've struggled for years with a TON of implicit assumptions and the general wrong-headed things I grew up with in the 80s. Most of us did. I thought I was one of the good ones because I never went out of my way to be one of "those guys." But...

For me, I list out the allowed resources and tell new players it's up to them to sell me on any variance. When they just suggest random stuff without any attempt to sell me on the idea, I refer them back to the list. If they persist, I tell them a flat no. I do try to explain I'm trying to get...

I stopped playing D&D in 2e, about 30 years ago. Nothing drastic, I just found other games I enjoyed and spent years doing that. Shadowrun, Everway, TFT, Heroes Unlimited and Mage were the largest part, but I tried a LOT of others over the next 25 years. In 2018, my daughter's then boyfriend...

My games are all text. I know it's not for everyone, especially these days, but I roll with it and my games all have players, some of whom can't use voice for some reason, some just don't want to. I've played over voice, and it's fine. Fun, even. But for running, text is for me. For OP, Roll20...

It's a good thought (And I think I made my own opinion of the man clear in the other thread), but the fact is the individual in question enjoys a disproportionate influence on the U.S. and our daily life. I don't care what he has to say. He is an execrable person with equally execrable opinions...

You burn in hell Musk, you smelly taint. You're not good enough to be part of my hobby. Or the human race.

Yeah it's just my reading comprehension. I saw STRPG and my brain read 'SWRPG'. I'd like to blame my stroke, but honestly I've done it before.

That's it. I guess my typing isn't the only thing suffering, is it?

I had a stroke and missed this last post. Did you mean WEG, or do I need to head to ebay?

IMO, if they're new to the game, best not to complicate right away. Gives them time to get used to the rules, and room to grow if they want. If you're going over rules at this with a player, probably, yes. Harder. I would start a new player a level 1 (or 3, as most of my games have been. BUT...

Months of recovery; finally played!

Hidden Oddities: A Witch's Primer is a really well thought out book, containing a class, spells, options, subclasses, lore, and new subclasses for the PHB classes related to Witches. It's not just a re-skin of another class, but its own full-fledged addition to the roster, and still my favorite...
