    If your NPCs are “big bags of hps that don’t do anything”….. that’s not a game design issue.

    D&D General Do you care about lore?

    Nah. The GM is setting the scene. Whatever they throw out is lore enough for me.

    What is the point of GM's notes?

    Per the OP: Mostly to get thrown over my shoulder after the players start getting involved. “So… THATs not exactly how I saw this going…”

    D&D 5E (2014) Revisiting RAW Darkness Spell

    Yeah... this is one of those moments when we learn that the phrase “There are no stupid questions.” Is a lie we tell children so we don’t stunt their learning.

    Baldurs Gate 3

    I’m seriously impressed with the game. The 3D nature of the environments is amazing. I’m haven’t found the “free disengage” all that powerful. Mildly useful but it’s ultimately a small concession to the medium of play. Honestly, the environment and game feel more D&D than other games before...

    Pathfinder 1E What is your go-to backup weapon?

    Nudity. DC 18 wisdom check or the target is terrified for 1 hour. Alternatively... like the Medusa... a character can cover their eyes to avoid the effect. Oooh... you meant IN GAME! A dagger.

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder 2 and support for other playing styles/subgenres

    I’m not surprised that someone who couldn’t really get 5e couldn’t get PF2.

    Justice League: So, who's seen the Snyder Cut?

    I mean.... it’s fine. I think it treats WW better even if she’s a more ancillary character in this movie. In general it seems more consistent in tone. Less... goofy? Ultimately I’m convinced that Warner Brothers saw what the MCU was doing and felt like they needed to “catch up” for some reason...

    Falcon and winter solider

    Bingeable formats don’t really drive retention the way a weekly format does. We wouldn’t even be TALKING about WS episodes if we’d all binged it. Gotta keep folks talking.

    D&D General What elements does D&D need to keep? ENWorld vs. rpg.net

    No. It serves no purpose except to satify some people need for nostalgia. We’ve all agreed that it’s vestigial and has been supplanted by superior mechanics.
