I can see how HAT beat Spider-Man in the Hugo. Both are great movies, but Spider-Man focuses more on story and character development while HAT has more focus on the fantasy elements. And the Hugo leans more towards excellence in depicting sci-fi and fantasy elements than it does on having a...

I had a brand new player die to a crit on the very first attack roll of her very first tutorial combat in 3.5e. We both were a little stunned, so we improvised and had her twin sister rush over right then to avenge her death.

Crafter does have the minor perk of impacting spell components. 240gp Revivify, 800gp Hero's Feast, etc.

A perfectly cromulent meme for D&D 5.5!

I joke about DAW's love of puzzles, but she is an extremely talented DM.

Welcome to the D&D Public Beta!

Just in general I want to inspire more build diversity instead of less. It doesn't bother me that some options may get picked more often than others, so I will certainly be allowing custom backgrounds at my own table. Plus, the implication that only humans have Lucky Criminals, Alert Soldiers...

Married with Children, Rosanne, early Simpsons, Daria? I was raised on trolling. It's basically my love language. :geek:

I love that Harry Kim died and another Harry Kim just took his place, and nobody cared after that episode.

It's a "new edition" in the way that Games Workshop pumps out new codex that can blow up the meta. It's the "same edition" in the way that it's not a big departure from 5E. And ten years from now I'm pretty sure they will call the next release 6E not 7E. So, 5.5.

It is certainly easy to narrate an explanation, but it would be even better if the rules clearly state what happens, without such ambiguous phrasing. It's something a sentence, or even just a few words could clear up.

Agreed. A DM is probably going to have no problem making a ruling that will keep things flowing smoothly at their table. But there is value in sitting down and trying to hammer out what the rules actually say/mean, and the OP has made several "rulings" that are not necessarily supported or are...

Weeps in Fighter.

The new background attribute system. You should be able to pick any attribute/origin feat. They took the step forward in Tashas, then took half a step back.

Sure! I take the phrase "The Dungeon Master decides when circumstances are appropriate for hiding" to mean the process of hiding as a whole, from the initial action that allows you begin hiding to the things you do while attempting to remain hidden, such as sneaking past a guardian. I see the...

Are they giving me lots of free advertising and drumming up discussion about the thing I'm selling? Did I specifically ask them to do so? Am I otherwise making enough money to pay my bills? If those three are "Yes", then absolutely.

Same. In fact, one of the reasons why I buy the books is to immediately get a PDF version afterwards guilt free. The book sits on the shelf, and the PDF sees 99% of my use.
