    New D&D Unearthed Arcana Reveals Two New Subclasses for Monk and Sorcerer, Plus Revamps For Seven More

    Here's the thing though. The last version people down voted did do that. They just called it Hexblade's curse and made it part of the hex spell. People were just too kneejerk reacting to losing their precious critical hit at level 3.

    New D&D Unearthed Arcana Reveals Two New Subclasses for Monk and Sorcerer, Plus Revamps For Seven More

    Looking throuh the UA my thoughts are largely that most of them are good. My main concerns are the following: 1) Frankly I think the high level feature, if not a complete replacement/deviation from clerics normally getting domain spells should just be giving Arcana clerics access to the entire...

    D&D 5E (2024) Psion Class: Green/Yellow/Red?

    If a class feature requires you to multiclass or spend optional feats to be functional, it's a s&%@ class feature and needs to be fixed. Additionally, the features do care. They specifically say "Psion spells", so multiclassing does not work. And again, these are coming at the cost of other...

    D&D 5E (2024) Psion Class: Green/Yellow/Red?

    I've got a player about to playtest this class in my campaign, so I'll probably have more feedback as time goes on. My biggest issue with the class so far is that the psychic disciplines are all over the place in usefulness, purely due to the class having such a limited spell list. I.e. the...

    D&D 5E (2024) Wizards of the Coast promises to release more “CRPGs that are going to be as serious as BG3” without Larian

    My only question related to the prospect of WotC announcing any games similar to BG 3" is: so how many years of development wll you give the creators and have any of them been working on something already? Folks Baldurs Gate 3 was in development for years before we ever even heard of it...

    Where’s The Deathstalker RPG? Part 2

    God, that first artwork was clearly drawn by someone who never held a sword before. It's laughably bad. You could photocopy in a baseball bat and it would make more sense.

    D&D 5E (2014) Dragon Age lead says Baldur’s Gate 3 and Clair Obscur prove publishers wrong as games can crush market trends is they’re “given time to cook”

    My fundamental problem with Vielguard is that it looks like medieval fortnight, not Dragon Age. And every time a character opens their mouths to make an obnoxious marvel quip it makes me want to lobotomize myself with an ice pick. "Reactionary gamergate redux crowd" people have nothing to do...

    Daggerheart Reveals Ranger Class Preview (Exclusive)

    The artwork does look wonderful, my only question with it is a random thought that her metal arm must clearly be magically attached because otherwise that motion of pulling a bowstring would likely result in it deattaching from her arm. Even with metal bolts that specific movement puts a lot of...

    D&D 5E (2014) Hypothetical: WotC goes under and Hasbro vaults D&D. Now What?

    I mean, to be blunt, I'm more concerned about if the US will even continue to exist as a country by the end of the next decade, if I'll have to flee the country within the next year, or if I get carted off to some death camp in the middle of the night. Though, relevant to the topic? Nothing. I...

    Do Tariffs Apply To RPG Books? Maybe, Maybe Not!

    Yeah, kind of hard to comment on a situation that is blatantly political in a forum that has a rule about not discussing politics. The most I'll say is this: if you voted for this, I hope these tarriffs negatively impact your life. You know who you are. Zero sympathy. I'll save that for the...

    Shadowdark Setting Looks Set To Be 2025's First Million Dollar TTRPG Crowdfunder

    I'll admit I've been sleeping on Shadowdark. As someone who is genuinely interested but put off by the name, the art style, and given that most of the people I've seen who've talking tending to fall into a single category of discontented grognards type players (again no shade intended, it's a...

    WotC Some Rich Dude Calls for Wizards of the Coast to "Burn in Hell" and I Refuse to Care

    Unfortunately due to the forum restrictions, we are not at liberty to truly tackle a conversation about the horrific reality of billionaires and their effect on our hobbies, government, or news media, whether of the emerald nepo-baby variety, or just the run of the mill sociopath kind. Suffice...

    D&D General A.I. D&D Session Transcripts and Summaries Example

    It's completely relevent. You wanted our opinions on artificial intelligence being used in TTRPGs. I gave it. I don't want it. Period. I dislike that it's being forced upon us whether we like it or not. And I provided an opinion in this thread that isn't just gushing over technology that us...

    2024 D&D Character Sheets Available to Download

    I actually am wishing someone would do the opposite of shrinking the equipment. My favorite part of the 2014 sheets were that the spell sheet and the sheet with additional boxes for equipment, traits, magic items, character traits/bonds/etc were on completely different sheets. As someone who...

    D&D General How you would have done the Dungeons and Dragons' movie - 80's edition

    If you aren't aware of just how much homophobia is rooted in closeted repressed homosexuals self hating their own, you probably should spend time talking to more lgbtq+ people. And if you can't see how sweaty and oily shirtless men in loin cloths wrestling one another is hilariously queer...

    D&D General How you would have done the Dungeons and Dragons' movie - 80's edition

    I wouldn't. Not only was I not alive for the vast majority of the 80s, I think the 80s esthetic largely does NOT vibe or mix well with the type of stories that would fit DnD. Mainly because I have VERY strong opinions that electric instruments/heavy metal do NOT belong in the fantasy genre. It's...

    D&D 5E (2024) How to simply fix Ranger in 2024.

    They don't do it for the same reason they won't give ranger's concentration free Hunter's mark: at first level an extra free 1d6 is a hell of a splash temptation for people wanting to stack it with other l effects like Hex and divine favor. They don't want someone to be able to all of them at...
