    Dungeons & Dragons SRD 5.2 Is Officially Live

    I notice that 'Feywild' as a proper noun is in this new SRD. So I guess that's not something WOTC seeks to protect as product identity.

    D&D General If Nentir Vale were in the Forgotten Realms, where would they be?

    I don't think we have anything to indicate what % of the planet the board game map depicts.

    D&D General If Nentir Vale were in the Forgotten Realms, where would they be?

    If I were going to port the Vale itself into the Realms/Faerun then I'd put it between Sembia and The Dales, near the Fallen Stars coast. That's where the map of Faerun most resembles the map from Conquest of Nerath, IMO. If I were going to put it anywhere in Realmspace I'd probably place it on...

    D&D General 1e feel for 5E

    Hrm. Some of these things might make for a good challenge run* but if I wanted a 1E feel then I wouldn't be playing 5E. *Gritty realism is one of those things that just feels ill-considered to me. Healing isn't the only thing a long rest does; the entire spell system is predicated on completing...

    The same reason they play any game with character builds?

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Announces April 22 Release For 2024 System Reference Documents

    Okay but to be clear, you don't need to worry about that. For the purposes of publishing content, all you have to do is quote the citation that appears at the start of the CC SRD. Your own content can be released under any license you want, including the OGL, ORC, or no license at all.

    Five Takeaways From the 2025 Monster Manual

    It's not violence against humanoids. There are plenty of humanoids in the Monster Manual. The problem is attaching innate alignment to humanoid creatures.

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

    Who gives a damn about that? My refrigerator isn't replacing people in creative industries.

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

    'Enhanced' is a loaded word there. Just look at AI-'enhanced' movie remasters. Those extra pixels aren't really an enhancement when out of focus faces are sharpened and background details are lost in a slurry of color because of the algorithm getting confused.

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

    We're delusional because we don't want to support products made using regurgitation machines trained on stolen data? Like what even is this take. Edit: The question isn't whether we'll never purchase any products that use AI... it's about WOTC products.

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

    I've already been abstaining from WOTC products since the OGL Crisis so it would just reinforce my decision to keep supporting third party stuff. As long as it was also made by actual humans.

    Level Up (A5E) Adept Question

    Meanwhile I'm playing a Quickstepper adept who regularly has 25 to 26 AC thanks to no-stamina Expert Tumble and 140 HP thanks to having 18 Con and the Hardy Adventurer Feat. In 12 levels I've almost gone down once to a 50+ damage critical.

    D&D General 2nd edition player handbook class examples.

    5E really doesn't scale that high. Even a Wizard with wish isn't doing a fraction of what Strange and Scarlet Witch can.

    D&D 5E (2014) Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    I don't trust anyone in the modern MMO landscape to get it right. All the MMOs generally cited as the best are like 15 to 20 years old & most of them have changed hands at least once.

    WotC WotC (Mistakenly) Issues DMCA Takedown Against Baldur's Gate-themed Stardew Valley Mod

    The complicity of youtube in platforming awful people is rather beyond the scope of this thread, but it's difficult to overstate how much of a bad look it is that WOTC hired a company known for being so brutal that the US Government made it illegal for themselves to hire them.

    D&D General Former WotC Employee Greg Bilsland Returning to D&D?

    Maybe Chris Perkins was right when he said he felt the future of D&D was in good hands--Cao leaving, Bilsland returning. Makes me a bit more optimistic about their upcoming products.

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Unveils Dragon Delves' Eclectic Art Styles

    I'm hoping the bronze dragon is heavily zoomed in because the background is way too blurry and indistinct if that's all of/most of the image.
