That’s fair.

If anyone crossed the line from “explaining how DW works” to “extolling the virtues” of it, I missed that step. I for one appreciated the explanations, even if they’re in the “wrong” forum.

Can anyone recommend a good, engaging DW demo or actual-play video that shows how these hard & soft moves (and fronts) work in practice? I started watching a couple that we’re just boring beyond endurance.

It is!

Nope, that's not what he said. I agree. As I said: A solution that works for you doesn't make it a solution that works for me. I don't think the answer is as obviously no as you think it is. Healing potions in D&D are marginally silly (IMO), and expanding on those existing game components...

You're misunderstanding the argument, I think. This is the opposite of a slippery slope. We DO have unrealistic things in the game. The DOES NOT lead to having no realism at all. No slope, slippery or otherwise. It's OKAY to have unrealistic things in the game. We can STILL have the realistic...

If I were in your shoes, DMing another person’s campaign with players whose style and expectations don’t mesh with mine, I’d just recuse myself from future sessions. “Sorry, Jane. I’m not sure what to do with players like that, and I don’t want to TPK your group.”

I fully support reducing those long ranges, either officially in the next update or unofficially by any DM who wants to make the change. Great idea! Do it. I inferred from the initial post that the idea was to pile on disadvantages and negative modifiers to make those long range attacks so...

There’s screaming about long ranges now.

Right. Just like the squirrel said.

Are you asking why there aren't rules that allow the DM to tell players that their PCs can't use their long bows effectively at full range in wide open terrain?

Heck, I ignore calls from people I do know if they don’t leave a message.

@Bedrockgames I’m glad you’re still with us. Online harassment and bullying is real, and it has real effects on real people.

There's a great deal of value, I think, in examining and reconsidering the way things have been presented in fantasy in the past to make deliberate, thoughtful decisions about what to retain, what to change, and what to add, rather than just re-making the same art and literature (and gaming...

Indeed, there are times when M:TG products get released weeks ahead of schedule!

That makes as much sense as the moon careening through space, I guess.

WHY DID THE ALIEN SHAPESHIFT INTO EARTH ANIMALS? WHERE IS VICTOR BERGMAN??

I was referring to Season 1. I try to forget that Season 2 ever existed.

Best opening credits and theme music ever!
