Yeah, I'm beginning to realize that.

OK. I haven’t seen that OG episode. Ep 3 was great! I kinda suspected plant zombies when M’benga wasn’t picking up any life signs. I liked the tension between #1 and Ortegas this episode. I’m worried about Batel. I have the feeling she’s going to turn into a monster and have to be “put down”...

Agreed. That was a silly statement since there's an actual steel dragon in Waterdeep: Dungeon of the Mad Mage.

This is my favorite version of Jarlaxle: IYKYK

Yeah kind of. I think when I watched that episode of Picard, I must have mistook the Starfleet Security guys for actual Section 31 agents or something. Another thing that confused me on ST: Discovery was how, when Burnham first boarded the ship, she saw Section 31 agents with their black pins...

Actually it seems like I was misremembering (or misunderstood when I first watched Picard). According to Memory Alpha, S31 is mostly gone by the Picard era. The torturous experiments I mentioned technically occurred during the Dominion War and were conducted by Daystrom Institute scientists...

The most obvious clue to Trelane being a Q for me was the finger-snapping. That’s such a classic Q move. Also, would anyone else like it if the show named Strange New Worlds actually visited strange new worlds? It feels like they mostly just hang around in Federation space or places just across...

As awful as the Discovery era Section 31 is, I would argue that the Picard era Section 31 is even worse! They were conducting torturous experiments on living beings and putting others “on ice” in that black ops space station and so on. EDIT: Never mind! I just checked online and it seems I was...

Honestly, it’s hard to explain, but I think it had the opposite effect for me. I think it helped me get into the mood more. Like @Distracted DM, it’s primarily an aesthetic thing. I can understand where you’re coming from, though. The clean, color-coded 4e design did the same for me as the 3e...

Been doing a S1-4 rewatch with my middle child and introducing my youngest to it now that she's old enough. Lots of foreshadowing in earlier seasons that I didn't catch the first time. Just three episodes left. I wonder how much foreshadowing there is in S4 that I won't pick up on until I've...

In contrast, I do like the mock book look … but I’ll never go back to playing 3.5e ever again. I do not like the mechanics!

Yes, Vajra debuted in the 2008 4e-era novel, Blackstaff Tower, along with Renaer Neverember of Waterdeep: Dragon Heist fame.

It’s not that I don’t want to play BG3. I just can’t afford to buy it.

"Mama, I'm Coming Home" is a favorite of mine.

As explained upthread, the wizard is Vajra Safahr, the current Blackstaff, and the elf is Valindra Shadowmantle, a lich with the ability to make herself look like she's still alive.

I haven't played BG3 so Karlach has no hold over me. However, even if she did, I still wouldn't like that particular art style for a D&D book cover.

I don't know. Maybe I'll have to wait till next Christmas. That would certainly give them more time to fix the remaining issues they missed in the first round of errata.

She's noteworthy for being the youngest Blackstaff ever.
