    No More Reptiles with Boobs!

    I think a more direct comparison is if all male characters had a prominent bulge in their pants, seeing as not all men have beards. Though adding a beard to that wouldn't hurt, just to be sure and get the "lumberjack" look going. Sorry for the mixup there, in that post I was referring to...

    No More Reptiles with Boobs!

    I prefer the artists who take "anthropomorphic" and apply it in a conservative sense, making the creature bipedal and giving them hands, and thats about it. I'd like to see them support the dragonpeople they already had. Yaknow: Dragonkin and Halfdragons, and Draconians I guess too, but they...

    Bring Back Verisimilitude, add in More Excitement!

    Ah, the idea is I want to be able to play a full game without ever switching tiers(read: genres), and the 10 levels isn't enough to do that very convincingly. I want the ability to play 1-10 as a full campaign without the characters having to progress at a glacial pace. But other than that I...

    Ahhhhh. I was thinking highschool. This makes more sense now.

    Well, you can apply that argument to what anyone lists as things they want to see in the game. If 5e is a modular as they say it will be, you should be able to please all the groups. In this case more realism is a euphemism. I dont expect the game to model reality. but I dont want the game to...

    I'm glad we agree! It's astonishing that anybody would attempt to write a revision any other way. Trailblazer doesn't give me precisely the game I want, but as a "problem fixer" I'd say it did quite admirably when compared to 4e *or* pathfinder. Especially considering it's a small publisher...

    That one doesn't hold up for me. If I'm an anthropomorphic male dragon humanoid; I have a cloica. I chose to play a lizard; so I'm a lizard. lol

    Bring back the exposed boobs on the Monsters!

    Wait. We went to school together? I clearly don't recognize the username. That would be entertaining. Though I'm not sure it'd be entertaining enough to pay money for. I'm all for it. Absolutely. Though I would like to see a real woman actually manage some of those poses. Maybe a gymnast...

    Well then; lets be honest here: thats the first reason they bug me. All of the parts of it that don't make sense being pointed out are minor gripes or serve to more 'legitimize' the fact that it bugs me so much.

    Arbitrary Limited number of uses per day. Just give some general guidelines here and tell the GM to use their common sense or whatever. I dont need it to be perfect, but I dont want them to just be the same effect with different colors. The stuff is there if you houserule it in. By raw, it...

    No More Reptiles with Boobs!

    They lay eggs, and they're covered in scales. They also don't nurse their young, or have hair. If we're going that far, than I want a justification. "They're not really related to dragons, they're reptilian apes", "They're aberrations", "They're undead made from ape parts and dragonkin parts"...

    Bring back the exposed boobs on the Monsters!

    Agreed, and I think if your goal is male and female players in the game, if you're including one you'd need to also include the other, but you're likely better off including neither. Ah. Yeah I disagree with the top bit. As for the bottom bit, I have similar feelings about some of the clothes...

    lol. I think it's better this way.

    Bring back the exposed boobs on the Monsters!

    If youre going to show nudity at all in an RPG, do it when it makes sense, not to sexualize them. But I think that I find this just as creepy as you would find this. I dont think either has much of a place in D&D, unless you're making a succubus temptress image or something; if they're topless...

    No! it makes LESS Sense!!!!! Dragon Flight makes more sense than Dragon Boobs! [edit] About Hands n Feet: Thats a concession to make them stand on 2 feet and use weapons and stuff. IE: to make them playable. Boobs don't have mechanical implications.

    That varies by the person, some are rational enough to think in context, just like Michelangelo's David isn't meant as being sexual. But yes, there are many who have that sort of slanted thinking. But hopefully they calling for equality in one situation and fighting against it in another. I...

    Houserules differ from table to table, and I know a very large number of GMs who don't use houserules and dont allow actions not covered by any rules in the game. And the amount of houserules required to achieve this list in the current edition of D&D is enough that the game wouldn't be...

    Now Now. Apparently the social progress of the 60s where women became free to (after fighting for it - bra burnings and such) not wear tops has been beaten back by more social progress to say they have to again. And in the interest of this return to victorian sensibilities, I'm going to make...

    Here are the things I would want to see in the next Edition of D&D. Some of them are "New things", and some are things they took out that I think should have just been handled differently instead of completely removed. Of course, comments are welcome. In order of Priority 0. No rules-based...

    That always drives me crazy. Dragons, Snake People, Birds... If they're based on animals that aren't mammals, and aren't obviously "mammal from the waist up" like a drider or something, why are you giving the females boobs? And why is it that cat people and dog people and such have ape boobs...
