It's the stuff happening as dictated by the outcome of the rules/dice rolls/etc. that generates the story. Is waiting for the game notes to be "published" as it were what makes it a story? I'm absolutely not saying that anyone is wrong for disagreeing with me that the playing of the game is a...

I'll never understand all of the anti-story people. Play the game how you like of course....but in the end....don't you have a story to tell that you were all part of?

I’ve never gotten a trophy for anything but occasionally a player or two says thank you. That’s good enough for me.

I usually DM so for me the fun is smashing the pcs against the shores of misery and despair. But you’re not wrong. 😎

There's no such thing as bad press. Or so i'm told.

I agree. My interpretation regarding his comment (which shouldn't mean anything to anyone) is that 5e is all about not ruffling feathers. No evil races, no races at all, PCs never die so that players won't be put out, balanced classes etc. And the irony of the conversation is that now everyone...

I'm saying that is what the conversation is about....weather or not that is what he implied. I am unphased by such commentary.

It was a metaphor used by Mearls. Meaning modern gaming is about everyone winning and no one’s feelings getting hurt.

The trick is to play with the rules you like and hope that no one notices they are playing a different edition. ;)

Questions are how we learn and knowing is half the battle. Finding people on the internet to agree with you is the other half. That's the tough part. Statistics show that people on the internet really just like to argue about things that don't matter at all.* Was, is or will D&D ever be...

My friend I’m not really sure what this discussion is about. Products, books, widgets or whatchyamakallits….meaningless distinctions since the company doesn’t release detailed information. Most of the RPG material I buy comes from 3rd party producers off of kickstarter. WotC is just background...

Also…Wotc doesn’t make cars. 🤷🏻‍♂️

You left out the emoji from my quote. You’re misrepresentation of my biting wit could lead people to believe that I care about this topic more than I do. Surely that’s some kind of slander. Or is it liable? 🤔

I don’t think so but boy can we speculate!! 😂

depends on what your definition of a book is. 🫣 I read someplace that amazon lists D&D books as games now and not books and as such the discount for the product is in a different scale. Of course I do t have a source as I’m very very lazy. Could this distinction be why they aren’t calling...

Isn’t a book a product?

In that case; can you direct me to a place where I can argue with people over vague nonspecific third party statements? 😉

This is the nature of public discourse. When we shout our opinions out in the public square...there is fall out.

That's how controversy works.

Mearles has an account here....has anyone...you know....asked him to clarify?
