I hope they really broaden the usefulness of Strength, Intelligence, and Charisma saving throws.

They need to crowd source their proof reading among the people that are in their closed beta test in addition of the normal quality control that Wizards of the Coast uses.

I thought gnomes typically live underground. Brownies, hobgoblins, and a couple others are house spirits. Folklorists use gnome as a categorical term?

Wouldn't he be a brownie, not a gnome?

D&D has been on a decline regardless of whether an individual likes the current iteration of the game or not. The videogame market is a good reflection of its diminished status. There are only two 4e games we have seen released and neither are exactly good.

They are disgruntled 4e players who regularly troll with anti-5e rhetoric. Anything 5e does is automatically bad to them.

I am just never surprised with what's posted in that forum.

The poll doesn't really make much sense as the rules packet isn't the least complex version possible nor the most complex version possible.

I really wish they would just reveal all the release details. Why are they even hiding the covers if they are finalized?

3e became quite ridiculous. You could have high stats from leveling and magical items, a +10 bonus from another magical item, 23 ranks in the skill, skill synergy bonus, bonuses from different feats, a number of situational bonuses, and I know I am forgetting other bonuses as well. The whole...

It's not the act of bringing an evil creature in the world that necessitates it being evil. It is defiling a grave, creating an abomination, and bringing more negative energy into the prime material plane that makes animating the dead an evil act.

I've been ready for a new edition since 4th edition was released.

Art is incredibly important. The first impression given to anyone is from the art. If they cheapen the art, they would give a bad first impression to many potential buyers. Black and white pages give the impression of a low quality product.

Bards have always been a strong archetype throughout fantasy and mythology. D&D has always had a less than stellar version of the bard. The designers always just takes wizard spells (or druid) spells and dumps them on a sub-par rogue instead of fleshing out what a bard has traditionally been...

That's called a rogue who can play an instrument.

I think the it's a mistake to say the bard is a full spellcaster even if it has full spells. It isn't going to have all the spellcasting modifying abilities that the full spellcaster has. It will still have a lot less spells since the full spellcasters have abilities that let them regain spells...

I wouldn't buy a product with black and white art. I avoided all the 3rd party products with black and white art during the 3e era as well.

Though I would like to see one based off the old Monte Cook Eldritch Might bard, I support the full spellcasting bard. I hope they have some unique sonic and illusion spells.

Hackmaster is three books, Player's Handbook, Hacklopedia of Beasts, and the upcoming Gamemaster's Guide. Others that require only one book are simply barebones RPGs with less content. In a lot of those other RPGs, while a whole game is contained in one book, it doesn't mean it has the same...

The warlock has always been my most sought after class. I was largely disappointed with the previous version of it and then the idea of rolling it into a single class with the wizard, but this version of it sounds really promising.
