I haven't seen it used ever actually but my actual play experience with 5E is woefully limited.

I saw Pathfinder 2E's playtest for sale in a Barnes & Noble, which immediately rubbed me the wrong way--I'm a firm believer that people should not pay to playtest something, and so I have issues with the way Early Access is used. Anyway, I flipped through it and I remember that it looked really...

Well I see I'm in the majority when I say yes, of course it can, as far as I know that's its primary purpose/function as a skill? The Insight of 5E is the Sense Motive of 3.5, essentially.

This might be a silly question, but how often/frequently do dragons appear in your Dungeons & Dragons game? Back in college, we used to jokingly call the game "Dungeons & Dungeons" because there were plenty of dungeons but dragons were of questionable frequency. Later on in my "career" as a DM...

I want to learn anything and everything I can about what canonically happened in (that is, the in game history of) the Greyhawk setting, from the modules published before I was born to the Living Greyhawk campaign that wrapped up just as I was getting really into D&D. The most accurate and...

If I wanted to put a thread asking for playtesters for a game I have in alpha or beta, would that go in Publishers, Promotions etc. or could I put it in D&D or General Roleplaying, or other?

Well since you asked, I'd say it takes me probably around two hours, tops, to get 10,000 words of a first draft to submission quality. But I think my process is very atypical and I would certainly not recommend any writer use it as the base for any kind of organizational routine or a guideline...

DOWNLOAD 3.4: THE PHYSICAL ADEPT DOWNLOAD 3.3: THE MAGE UPDATE On d20 Modern: First off, when I say something is "one of the worst RPGs I have ever seen" I probably mean to imply the qualifier "amongst reasonably mainstream RPGs with budgets of some kind". I am not comparing anything put out...

This article is pretty legit. Note that if you go from "talented beginner" to "seasoned writer" while working mainly for the same company, they are VERY unlikely to improve your rate above 0.03 per word (and absolutely guaranteed not to if you don't ask, preferably repeatedly, after you've...

Self-ninjutsu.

Ah, good to know! Rules changes made eight years before I was born are a definite weak spot for me!

Based on its body text this article would be more accurately titled "the D&D-ification of Fortnite", Mike. Which is a stretch as you know. But looking primarily at the market place of OTHER VIDEOGAMES, yes, there really is a "Fortnite-ification of everything" happening--or maybe "already...

These seem pretty cool. But they look like they were a nightmare to lay out.

What existing problems was this change meant to fix? That sounds like a better organizational scheme.

One of the things I like the most about 5E is that "only" around 30% of the PHB (28% actually, by my calculations) is spells. Obviously that's still a HUGE chunk but in 3.5 (and yeah, now that I think about it, any PHB I've ever really looked through) LITERALLY HALF (at least) of the PHB was...

My mistake. : )

Wow am I ever mortified to have prefaced my rant with "okay, here's some real talk from a professional game developer and publisher" and having my rant followed by Jonathan (:):):):)ING) Tweet. I never realized there was such a thing as a tough act to precede! Edit: new forum rule Jonathan...

I mostly made my save versus ranting about how terribad Dungeon World (anything *World) is and how all its "new ideas" like "play to find out what happens" and "say yes or roll the dice" are things that veteran roleplayers have known for years or decades, just reframed in more pretentious...

Mr. Ward (Drawmiji), thank you for sharing your memories with us. I just want to express my profound gratitude for your contributions to Expedition To The Barrier Peaks (which most likely inspired a generation of genre-bending) and for Metamorphosis Alpha in particular. While Gamma World is the...
