    D&D 5E (2024) Unearthed Arcana Playtest Packet 7 Live on D&D Beyond

    That is an illusion, it fact limits them and shoehorns them into a specific class and then forces them to multiclass and divide their focus. When if you just put things from all the classes as options under 3 basic classes and let the players mix and match what they want you would get a lot more...

    D&D 5E (2024) Unearthed Arcana Playtest Packet 7 Live on D&D Beyond

    A monk is a mystic fighter much like a paladin is to fighter, and really doesn't need to be its class, and could just be a path under fighter, paladin and even priest with armor and weapon restrictions. I do feel a great many of the classes are just overdone and could be sub-classes or arch...

    RPG Evolution: The Superman Problem

    This is why I have reverted back to older editions like OSE, or 1st or 2nd editions even.

    The Hollers And Haunts Of Old Gods Of Appalachia RPG

    Many like this in real life such as the ‘Lost Colony’ of Roanoke, from history and other native fables from the Americas. That sounds interesting i saw a movie once also about the early settlers and it had a horror theme to it Eyes of Fire (1983).

    Interview with Aaron Shanks, Paizo's Director of Marketing

    Paizo always put out quality stuff, lots of crunchy bits not just fluff, unlike D&D the products just seem to be getting worse and seem to be just all flash and using the name to sell things. As big as D&D is, the amount of materials being put out is a drop compared to others, i mean books and...

    RPG Evolution: Bad Vibes in Barbieland

    Roleplaying games is a great way to get a peek behind a person's wall and facade of what they present in the real world, now some can separate themselves from a character and play as such, most are DM's. From my perspective as a DM, I try and pick up on if a player is having fun or if something...

    WotC WotC Adds 'Partnered Content' to DnDBeyond--Starting With Critical Role's Tal’dorei Campaign Setting

    well they needed to do something as they have been failing so much that this seems like a feeble attempt to say Hay look we are sharing with others. But anyway while it is good for the second party and in that case it is a great thing.

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D's Classic Settings Are Not 'One Shots'

    As it stands right now they just slap a name on the book fill it with fluff (not even coherent fluff or good fluff at that) and half-baked ideas and sell it. To be honest all they need is just some updated mechanics and can just reprint most of the settings and people would buy them. They really...

    Warthos

    I converted these city encounter tables from the old thieves world ones, so be warned the subject matter are not for kids and for a more mature audience, just like the books and game world was.

    Dolmenwood: An Interview with Gavin Norman

    That makes sense I think having race and class separate it the way to go, level limits, and training to advance is also something io will be doing encumbrance (the item slot version i think works well) and item repairing as well. I have just converted the city encounter tables from thieves world...

    Dolmenwood: An Interview with Gavin Norman

    This sounds cool, but i prefer to make my own setting, i wanted to get back to basic rules and stuff and the ose has let me do this. I am still wondering if i should go with race as a class or not from the basic and expert sets. I would think that if i stuck with only humans being able to take...

    Warthos

    I have started a new setting using the Old school essentials as the rules system that is based off the old basic/expert sets of D&D. I will be building this setting from the ground up with a world map and locations filling in general country information and expanding from there. I will be using...

    WotC WotC: 'Artists Must Refrain From Using AI Art Generation'

    I don't see any difference in using Photoshop and digital tools to make something instead of paint canvases and brushes, just that this makes it easier and quicker, mind you it is not perfect but could save time money and resources for those who don't want to spend the money to contract and...
