    D&D 5E (2014) Iggwilv/Tasha To Join Volo, Xanathar, and Mordenkainen? [UPDATED!]

    It's literally two pages later in his link. Dragon Magazine I assume it may be because the scans might not account for covers or something? Edit: Oh nevermind. This is from when they went digital. yeah just seems misnumbered. But it's there.

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana: Spirits Bard and Undeath Warlock

    You would think this would go without saying. That's how I generally feel too. I was just saying I don't get the concept of a DM that's afraid to reign their players in if stuff gets too ridiculous. I get being a people pleaser. I get wanting everyone to have fun. I don't get thinking that has...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana: Spirits Bard and Undeath Warlock

    You say this (and generally I agree with you) but one of the podcasts I listen to has one of the hosts regularly have minor freakouts whenever he perceives some new game option as being potentially overpowered. It always comes back to some discussion of how he expects powergamers (who may or...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana: Spirits Bard and Undeath Warlock

    I think there are some people who just don't like that degree of chaos and unpredictability at their tables? I mean, if that works for you then I guess go nuts, but personally that feels boring to me. I know random tables can sometimes produce nonsensical results if you simply take them...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana: Spirits Bard and Undeath Warlock

    Okay, having caught up to the end of the thread now, my super condensed opinions on the UA classes are as follows. Yeah, I was not a huge fan of Undying, but Undead is clearly and obviously a different niche thematically and otherwise. Room for both, even if most overlook the distinction...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana: Spirits Bard and Undeath Warlock

    FWIW, I got the reference. I was just trying to make it to the end of the thread before throwing my two coppers in but I worried (mostly correctly it seems) that it would fail to land heh... Points for trying though!

    D&D General Critical Role Investigation Into Complaint

    Sure, there's something to be said for removing potential stressors from your life. I get that aspect of it, assuming you find the stress of social media to be more of a drawback than any benefits. It puts a lot of stressful stuff in front of your face that many folks (including myself) would...

    D&D General Critical Role Investigation Into Complaint

    I see people so frequently parrot this "no good ever comes from using social media" line and while part of me assumes it's just a glib flip response to how often stuff goes south in instances like these, the rest of me wonders if they actually legit mean it and, if so, why they feel that way...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Beyond Player Tools app is now live!

    Yep they have multiple log-in options available now. And honestly, even if they didn't, logging in with the old way only required knowing your Twitch login, not three different ones like he said. I have no idea what happened in that case but... ???

    D&D General Critical Role Investigation Into Complaint

    Yuuup. And yet, this discourse will continue to bubble alongside the half-a-dozen others currently brewing for a while longer. And the people carrying water for him will use him as yet another example of how horrible a company that they already hated are the next time anything connected to them...

    D&D General Critical Role Investigation Into Complaint

    They have/had an EXTREMELY unhealthy parasocial relationship with CR that seems to have poisoned their outlook on everything. And the fact that they're claiming now (or having others claim for them) that money was never an issue rings a bit hollow when their initial post claimed that they felt...

    D&D General Critical Role Investigation Into Complaint

    As I said upthread, I didn't wanna drag all the stuff I've heard from various sources about this kid over the last several months but... yeaaah 😕 They've got a history for sure. And speaking as a queer dude, there are few things that make me angrier than when someone like this does something...

    D&D General Critical Role Investigation Into Complaint

    There is so much I want to say in response to posts on here but I really don’t need to weigh in here on this thread with backroom stories about the reputation of this person in question. Best just to let CR’s statement stand for itself. Suffice it to say, I’m glad this is over and done with...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Beyond Player Tools app is now live!

    This is what my campaign has been doing for long distance games but I recently looked into Foundry and... yeah I'm about to toss Roll20 soon because while it requires a lot more work in setup, Foundry has WAY more functionality and extensibility for just a one time fee.

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Beyond Player Tools app is now live!

    Basically the same here. I thought it had potential but I COULD NOT get past that first implementation of the character sheet layout. After the redesign, I was happily back in with both feet.

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Beyond Player Tools app is now live!

    Back when it first launched, D&D Beyond's UI was hot garbage (IMO) but when they did the massive character sheet revamp they did a year or two back, it got WAY better and more friendly. I know there was a big schism in the community when it happened but man, those old collapsing boxes that made...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Beyond Player Tools app is now live!

    If I'm not mistaken, there are chrome browser plugins that allow for just that. I believe it's called Beyond 20? I could be mistaken re: its ability to work with R20 but I know it works with the Foundry VTT.

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Beyond Player Tools app is now live!

    Still a bit bare bones at the moment (which they admit). For instance, you can't add or subtract coinage yet and some sections of the sheet (like your description and notes and such) aren't even accessible. Hopefully it won't be too long because right now it's really more of a reference than a...

    D&D 5E (2014) Orion Black No Longer a D&D Designer [UPDATED!]

    No worries at all. Not everyone keeps up minute to minute with everyone's work history :) Yeah he's been with them for several years now. Came over from his position as EIC of The Escapist in early 2015 when that site imploded during The Video Game Garbage Fire That Will Not Be Named of late...
