Is it, though? I mean, most people want and would benefit from the utopia of future earth. Honestly, it feels a bit like how I imagine some D&D tables are like. It's all good and progressive in theory, but doesn't really touch on the progressive subjects. Given how progressive Star Trek is...

You might just have posted the single most sensible post in the entire thread.

Regarding official D&D products, in Erin Evan's Forgotten Realms books there are multiple gay characters. Not characters that are just random people, but important characters. And it's not just mentioned in passing, it actually gets casual attention. That was very nice.

What would the point be of having a +1 Longbow if it didn't give any magical bonuses to the attacks?

There are quite a few Necromantic spells, but if you feel like the list is lacking ... reflavour is your friend. See a spell with a cool mechanic? Change it up so it's necromantic now. Fireball could be "Cloud of Decay". Wall of Stone is now "Wall of Bones". And so on.

SCL cannot be unique, and I doubt it's intended to be that. It's obviously meant to attract at least partially fans of old games like Baldur's Gate 2. Just like Divinity and Pillars of Eternity. I grew tired of both Divinity and Pillars after a while, though. Not sure why, exactly, but ...

I think being an atheist in someplace like the Forgotten Realms is practically impossible ... but in a homebrew campaign we had a Bard once, who rejected the gods. This bard thought they were either meddling where they didn't belong, or didn't interfere enough (I don't recall which). Basically...

Mordenkainen's Private Sanctum would be the obvious way to go. 4th level slot for a 24 hour duration, 100 feet radius. Can cast it at a higher level for +100ft per slot level above 4th. And if it's cast at the same location every day for a year, it becomes permanent. So a magical order could...

For those who played pre-4th Psionics, how did you like the psi-crystal psions could have? I only ever read about those psions, didn't have any opportunity to play one. But they seemed sort of like psionic familiars that could communicate somewhat. Always sounded fun at least, so I'd be glad if...

I'd very much prefer Mind Thrust to be treated more like a cantrip in terms of damage. Scale automatically, and if the Awakened is not getting anything else for damage, allow it to be enhanced with Psi Points at an increased cost. But I'd hope there will be disciplines better suited for combat...

You should also grab Spell Sniper and take one of the cantrips that require an attack roll. Start playing as a race that gets a cantrip. High Elf, Drow, Tiefling, Water/Fire genasi. Depending on how much you want to MC ... Sorcerer has the best basis for cantrips, I think. That, and three...

Cool, thanks!

Are there any previews of what it looks like? Because I've seen similar things elsewhere that costs money, and isn't much better than what people have made up themselves and published for free on blogs, forums, etc. There was a discussing on the dnd 5e subreddit a while ago about gathering ideas...

Same here. Someone wants to play a valid race that can fly? Then I'll make sure we all have some fun with it.

Another thing I think is important to consider, regarding the whole "if they're not releasing a software at least they should allow fans to make them". While I definitely think the world would be better off with less strict copyright laws, given how things work now, I can understand why they...

That really depends on how invested they are in seeing it work, and what resources in terms of domain experts they're willing to invest in the development. There's a lot more to creating a software than just saying "we want a great D&D character creation tool". You gotta do requirements...
