OD&D: 4 starting classes* I don't know enough between OD&D and 3e to confidently comment. 3e: Not THAC0 4e: Excellent formatting for abilities, helps make it clear what they mean. 5e spells could be formatted so much better and this style would help some, though it does have its constraints. And...

Really fascinated by that level 20 spike. I wonder if that's people just building level 20 versions of their characters for planning, or people playing campaigns starting at level 20 just to see what it's like, or maybe bringing their characters in an older campaign onto D&DB that are already...

I recently learned of initiative system used in Shadow of the Demon Lord (I think mentioned above as well). I hate rolling initiative, so it's an interesting take for me. It would probably need some work to adapt to 5E, though, as that system gives the option for using two actions (I haven't...

Imperial Compliance Officials seek out the party to ensure that they've completed necessary forms related to the tasks they've been performing. This office continues to exist even after the empire it served is gone through the overwhelming strength of bureaucracy.

My wife and I both gasped. I was sure they wouldn't let anything happen to him in such an underwhelming way but we both were internally screaming, "YOU BETTER NOT!" to Disney. I didn't have much issue with the twi'leks but my wife was really bothered by them hissing, though it didn't bother...

Power Wisdom Courage Half joking, but I do prefer systems with less stats than some of the suggestions here. I truly think we could move D&D to five stats and it still work well.

This has to be in the top ten worst game trailers of all time. The game could be amazing but this trailer will forever color it as no better than meh.

It's exciting. But hopefully with better trailers.

You've maintained the flavor pretty closely and switched it up to fit your vision. All sounds good to me. As written, Greater Pact Magic would work when multiclassing and casting a spell from a regular spell slot. Pact Magic makes everything a little tricky. If that's cool with you, fine as...

Some ideas I had on Warlock. I'm trying to focus on features that are generically useful for Warlocks, though most of these still feel like they could be eldritch invocations. These are all based on concepts Warlocks have had in other editions. I've tried to avoid features that already exist as...

@dnd4vr indomitable rewrite makes good sense I'm still thinking about Warlock. I wanted to ask about cantrips on this, how do they scale in this system? Do they only scale a single time at level 5 or is there some other method?

Looks pretty good. Average power level of characters being lower than the rest of the films should be interesting. We don't know much about the Soulworld in MCU. Would be something if this was entirely a construction of the Soulworld and Natasha facing her past somehow helped her escape...

3.5 Eberron The Five Tribes has it as a wine that heals 8 damage, but you can only drink it once a day and get the benefit. I think this is because in 3.5, each character could benefit from up to 8 HP of goodberry healing a day. It also functions normally in the Mournlands (I haven't read the...

It definitely wants me to play star wars or at least a sci-fi game again. It also makes me want a "metroidvania" where I can upgrade armor and items over time and these let me get to more areas to hunt down more bounties or something.

9. Indomitable as stated in your text doesn't seem to indicate that clearly. I'd suggest writing it all out including the reroll, with a statement that it replaces the original feature. 15. I might not have understood something here, does spending the higher level slot upgrade the spell to a...

I thought to look to previous editions for some inspiration. 4E had an ability that encouraged the warlock to move around a lot, providing concealment if they moved at least 15 feet, Shadow Walk. Don't think i'd port that mechanically but the flavor is kind of nice. But then, it doesn't...

I think you've done excellent work and compacting the game like this is something I've seen others do, and have wanted to do myself. Usually it's at the cost of existing class features, though. That you've maintained them is impressive. Anyway, onto my thoughts about the details (note that I...

I guess 5E is currently best as its the one I actually get to play. It's far from my favorite, though. Sadly, its not as easy to get friends to try RPGs they haven't heard of or seen on insert twitch or youtube channel

Personally, I hate this take. I don't want him to be Boba Fett. Besides the fact that he's a foundling, which implies he was found, and the flashback of CIS battle droids destroying what is implied to be where he lived, there's also that the producers have stated IG-11 isn't IG-88 because they...

You could make it so that smaller dice could only explode once, in case a group doesn't like the closing gap. So like, d4 once, d6 twice, d8 thrice, d10 four times, d12 5 times. 2d6 weapons would only let their d6 explode twice but that's not so bad.
