While I do agree Shattered Obelisk and Eve of Ruin are far from the best 5e books, I think she have an advantage with Dragon Delves: they are separate adventures instead of a campaign book. The number one flaw in Shattered Obelisk is making a Lost Mine a worst adventure by attaching an unrelated...

Dough - Sauce - Cheeses that pull, like mozzarella - Toppings - Grated cheeses, usually parmesan

A thing I tend to do before and after a campaign is asking about the most memorable moments of past campaigns and things they didn't like. It helps to see what they value most. Recently I found out that while I love a huge dungeon half of my players think my dungeons would be better if they're...

I voted biweekly but it's not exactly that. We play once every three weeks (it was once every two weeks but work schedules got in our way). We play four to five hours sessions, and sometimes we play between the scheduled sessions.

For a moment I thought it was a synesthesia thing. If it was I would say it's blue

I'm on the side of "if you want automation you can have it, but if you don't you also have that option". An example: I love Foundry VTT but I have to be honest, I never used more than half the features it offers. I use if for tracking overworld maps, city maps, dungeons, light and tokens, and...

It depends. I play monsters more as roleplaying what they would do than trying to win a skirmish. If the party is fighting a griffon its objective is to make one character unconscious, grab them and fly away with its meal. I play goblins less optimally than I play hobgoblins. Orcs are brutal...

After all, the tanar'ri is in the detail. Or was it the baatezu?

The system depends on what we want to play. Currently we're playing campaign set on the Sword Coast, so the 2014 5e was a good choice. If we're planning to do something with more dungeon crawls next maybe we play OSE, and there's a campaign we're planning to ressurect for a while that would be a...

I have nothing against the campaign books, but I hope they publish they less and give more attention to it. I would rather have a Curse of Strahd every two years than an Eve of Ruin every year.

Anticipating the Butlerian Jihad

I hope it becomes the standard, not only the shorter modules are easier to use and insert into an ongoing campaign, lately the quality of the short modules is way better than the campaign books. I guess it's because the campaigns are suffering from the "too much authors" problem, it's visible...

It's very easy to design a short character that doesn't resemble a child. See Barcus, Kagain, Yeslick, Quayle, Tiax etc. Or a recent example that had a sex scene, Harding from DATV.

The truth is ducks are a platypus-bird hybrid.

It's not for me as the DM to decide. It's for the player's with their actions and the dice.

Not cool, Pioneer wasn't the biggest format but enough people play it in the FLGS I use to play and it was my favourite. I'm not a fan of UB and I think it really dilutes what makes MTG fun for me. (Yeah, I'm a vorthos and although I'm not mad, I'm sad)

After I've seen many and many online debates about if Gandalf is a level 5 magic-user, a cleric, a paladin or an angel, I have a new proposal: he's a fey.

I love the cover art! It scratches my Keith Parkinson itch.

I'm a bit bummed it isn't Brazilian OSR anymore. The LATAM TTRPG scene is really cool and avantgarde.

For 5e: if you you're healed from 0 HP you're still unconscious for 1d10 minutes
