    D&D 5E (2024) What classes have improved the most from 2014 to 2024? (+)

    I agree. I think the Ranger is a thoughtful and clever revision. I was trying to digest everyone's criticism of it and I followed a few of the points, but then I listened to Chris's evaluation of the class at Treantmonk's Temple here and he rightly points out how the class is designed to bring...

    D&D Beyond Releases New Free D&D Adventure Featuring 1980s Cartoon Characters

    It is a generous move to release (another) free adventure. Super cool.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player’s Handbook is ‘Fastest Selling D&D Book Ever’

    As a long-time admirer of how role-playing games, with Dungeons & Dragons at the fore, have enabled the popularization of storytelling with friends -- even at the very time when society encourages people to be passive consumers of mediated forms of entertainment -- I am delighted to hear this...

    D&D Is Hiring a New Brand Publicity Manager

    I am still waiting to hear word about the History of Dungeons & Dragons documentary that was supposed to be released this year. This must have been a major delay to it for no word to come out concerning its release. That is too bad. I really enjoy documentaries and I was looking forward to one...

    D&D 5E (2024) Counting the minutes to get the PHB 2024...

    I know they are not supposed to do that. But I’m sure glad that he did. ❤️ There are like 8 hobby or RPG stores in my city so, I think he is safe from the ENWorld police. And, in me, he earns a loyal patron. Plus, I just like cool people. The book is great…loving it. I may even (I very well may...

    D&D 5E (2024) Counting the minutes to get the PHB 2024...

    Oh, no, sorry to hear that. The owner of the hobby store closest to me called me last Friday (August 30th), and said I could come down and pick one up. I was so thankful that he did that as I have been really enjoying it. He had, by the way, a stack of regular covers and alternate covers on the...

    D&D 5E (2024) Forgotten Realms Player Guide

    I agree that the structure and layout, as well as the writing, is fantastic. It is very easy to read and very clear. Excellent editing. I hope with the Campaign Guide for the Forgotten Realms as well as for other future setting books, they will reintroduce the nice cultural touches that were...

    D&D General D&D Player's Handbook 2024: The Official Advance Review

    Micah, you care about Wizards of the Coast more than most. You post about them all the time. There is no shame in that. I care about them too. The designers who I think are doing a fine job with the game that I have loved from my youth work for that company and that company is the one that...

    D&D General D&D Player's Handbook 2024: The Official Advance Review

    Interesting. Also, I have read some of the same people engaged in this line of thinking rail against a nameless edition while in the very same posting they write of the "Holmes," "Moldvay," or "Mentzer" editions of Basic D&D: all made up names. Anyway, it's amusing, but -- as I have said...

    D&D General D&D Player's Handbook 2024: The Official Advance Review

    I am too...very surprised. Especially since calling an edition by a decimal fraction immediately sets up expectation for the whole number edition to follow.

    Have you heard anything specifically or do you have a positive hunch?

    Do you think it will be released by February? I hope so! I have been looking forward to it.

    D&D Movie/TV Hasbro To Produce Official D&D Documentary

    Has there been any word about this documentary? The silence is telling...but it is hard to imagine that all the work went into presumably completing such a documentary only to leave it unreleased in the 50th anniversary year?

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Player's Handbook Video Redactions & Takedowns

    By the way, Micah, I do not see the words "every company" in my post. If you are going to use quotation marks with regard to something that I have written, you should quote me accurately.

    That is extraordinary, then, of ENWorld. Good for them.
