Yes, the gods are useless and stupid. It's long been an important, one might even say foundational, aspect of the setting (and one of the many reasons I hate it). But some people in this conversation are being unfair to Vlaakith. She's not a goddess, no matter how much she and her followers say...

Can you do planar travel under your own power? If yes, it's easy to get in. If no, then it's a lot harder. Once you're on the right plane and in the vicinity of the city on that plane, yeah, it's probably literally the easiest party to gatecrash there ever was. But you do actually have to get...

Yeah, there aren't 17,000 endings. There are like half a dozen with like half a dozen potential romances modifying that one of a couple of ways each, and then a bunch of minor things that might get referenced in some way near the end that they multiplies together to come to that number. And no...

For real. If you worship Sune, Sharess, Lliira, or Tymora, you go to the best afterlife in all of fiction. Or... you can skip that bit and just go to Brightwater in person while you're alive. Same great party, no need to suck up to the gods about it. Harder to get a ticket, but still easier than...

I would say that the line isn't that fine and "way more than needed" is the hobby standard level of prep. Which generally leads to railroading, because if you don't play through what the DM spent all that time prepping, then it was a waste of time, right? (No I'm not saying everyone thinks this...

Walk away. There are eleventy jillion ways to ditch the Realms and go somewhere less naughty word. Finding a portal to the City of Doors is going to be vastly easier and a Hell of a lot more likely to succeed than attempting to go godslaying. From there, you can go to literally anywhere. Or don't. You...

Here's the thing about WotC doing extensive playtesting and editing for adventures: It's a waste of money. People don't like to talk about it, or talk about it as a thing from the past, but the simple fact is that those official adventure books are written to be read, not played. The...

This is hilarious, because the Bladesinger kit was kind of crappy, and literally every edition of the game after that made a version of the Bladesinger that was more powerful than this one ever was.

Hey, neat. My little aside spun off a whole thread. (Or I guess two that got merged?) That's cool. Gnolls are kind of my jam. Time was, I was actually kind of locally famous in the gamer community where I'm from about it. To the point that, after an absence of about ten years, I was recognized...

It's kind of hilarious to see all this talk about how it's such a good thing that they're moving orcs away from the "always evil" presentation, a thing which they have never actually been, while steadfastly ignoring that 5e is the edition that took a species that had always previously been...

Wow... So, first, Jaquays did not request her name be taken off of the concept. That didn't happen. It's not a real thing. To be clear here: I am not accusing Alexander of making it up. You lot did. The article could not be more clear that the actual objection was not to using her name, it was...
