    WotC Would you buy WotC products produced or enhanced with AI?

    That's the market test. That a human can produce a better RPG supplement than an AI for a long, long time, I won't argue. I am also convinced that there will be a market for those. It might not be a WIDE market, but I am pretty sure there will be. There are probably far less tailors nowadays...

    WotC Would you buy WotC products produced or enhanced with AI?

    Yes. And it's disputably related to art quality of execution. The infamous Comedian being sold for 6 millions USD certainly has more value than most art pieces, yet I am not sure everyone would agree that it is great art (I do), and I am all the more sure that not everyone would say the...

    WotC Would you buy WotC products produced or enhanced with AI?

    At what point do you draw the line? That's an honest question, don't think it's being provocative. If I write an adventure and ask the AI to correct the mistakes, that's one thing. But what if I just determine the main elements of the plot (for the sake of the discussion, let's assume that my...

    WotC Would you buy WotC products produced or enhanced with AI?

    And my point was that, yes, art is important in society, but that art is much more common in our societies than the narrow number of paid, published art, especially in the domain of adventure design. That's why I don't think art is being threatened by WotC publishing, at some point in the...

    WotC Would you buy WotC products produced or enhanced with AI?

    Let's look at the most creative part of WotC designs: adventures. I have been creating adventures for my group for 20+ years and mostly not buying them, because I tend to be quite bad at running pre-written adventures (or maybe my players tend to veer off them, I suppose both sides are guilty)...

    WotC Would you buy WotC products produced or enhanced with AI?

    As a general thing, I don't think art will "die". That most of the market need, at some point, can be satisfied without human intervention, will never prevent anyone from designing something. It simply won't be a mass commercial endeavour (or maybe a PWYW model), but it could serve a niche...

    [AD&D Gamebook] The Sorcerer's Crown (Kingdom of Sorcery, book 2 of 3)

    She'd have died in Delmer, hiding from six gnolls, nonetheless.

    He teleported. We lost track of him when he took the door to leave the Garden of Fatima just before us. There is a strong possibility he took the door directly to this room and waited, in hiding, for an opportunity to kill Prince Susurrien. Yep. I'll rant about it later!! His last stats: FP...

    D&D General DALL·E 3 does amazing D&D art

    Also, I love this art: Anatomy is awful. It can't be real, hand-produced art, I guess. And look at the hands!

    D&D General DALL·E 3 does amazing D&D art

    ChatGPT is good, but it has some limitation on what he wants to draw. I wanted a picture of an event that happened in our last session, where one character, a hoplite, executed (by pluging his magical sword into the heart) our foe that was lying inconscious, after being knocked-off by another...

    [AD&D Gamebook] The Sorcerer's Crown (Kingdom of Sorcery, book 2 of 3)

    Also, if we're to waste high level magic, why do it AFTER the fight, and not in a critical moment where lives are at stake? Another cool depiction on the magic doing its work. While we're shamelessly nitpicking, there are a lot of things to like in the books, and the colour of the spell being...

    Let's play Bloodsword, book 3/5

    Yes, especially when one is the Golden Mirror... Remember? The Abbot used it for divination, and we let him use it, and in the next section the book said that we can take it back, though since the holy man knows how to use it, and us not, it would be a petty move. Litterally. There is a chance...

    D&D General DALL·E 3 does amazing D&D art

    Can someone point me to historical examples of people being yelled at and called names reacting by saying "Indeed, sir, I now see the compelling arguments you're making and I am therefore totally convinced of the point you're defending?"

    Let's play Bloodsword, book 3/5

    I'd say that the right choice was to use the tuning fork, because we got it by bypassing the fight in the room just before. We'll explore both of them, and, indeed, @Joshua Randall was right. Using the golden mirror stuns the guardian, who stares at it and put its paws to his face in...

    Let's play Bloodsword, book 3/5

    I'll answer those questions later... (cue mysterious music). We go left, inspired by an out-of-book rule or because we like following serpents. Soon, we reach a circular, brick-lined chamber with a frieze on the well depicting a tall metallic figure wearing a three-pointed helmet. In one of...
