Sod that, I'm starting the thread about the 2013 setting. BRB.

I look forward with great pleasure to the coming explosion of nerdrage that will inevitably ensue no matter what setting is announced.

Hard choice between On Hallowed Ground and Demihuman Deities. Difficult to say, there. I can pass both off as mythology books. <_>

No, they aren't going to come and burn my Planescape books if they do it. Problem is, the new version is going to be the one you're most likely to encounter as a player. It's 'new', it's what people have access to without expensive as hell stuff on eBay, it's going to become the most common...

I *hate* Mos Eisley syndrome. Gimme rubber forehead aliens. (Star Wars does little for me. The original trilogy is ok, but I'm a Star Trek fan, period.) I don't like 'monster' races, or races that look like such(lookin' at you, Dragonborn and 4e Tieflings) unless it's a completely non-standard...

I don't know, as much as they completely butchered Forgotten Realms, the news that they *weren't* destroying another old setting would be a relief for fans of it. :P I'm hardly old school since I'm 25, I was like 11 when the setting came out, but I like Planescape, for example. I shudder to...

I'm aware of that, I'm just commenting on the whole 'the old planescape planes sucked because they were so unaccessible' thing in posts like Nymrohd's.

Rpg.net, GITP and WotC forums. Mind you, I read them all anyway, so it's more of a subtractive 'I just don't read ENworld when it's down' thing. :P

Wasn't the entire point of Planescape to make the planes more accessible to low-level characters, or am I just reading an entirely different version of the setting than everyone else? >_> I don't care about the Dragonborn book, since I can't stand Dragonborn, though the Eladrin one when/if they...

Very lame for you. :< I'm in the same boat, I was running 3.5 for my first time DMing(Which thankfully just died because we couldn't make everyone's schedules work), and sick of it. I wanted to go either 4e or BF, but everyone in my group refuses to play anything but 3.5. 4e 'sucks' (None of...

Meh, none of the ones I actually liked from the first round made it through. Too many dragon ones in the final 18, which is as predicted. One of them will undoubtedly win. ;)

Yeah, I'd definitely go for another system entirely, 4e really isn't designed at all for what you want to do. To steal someone else's analogy, low-magic historical 4e is kind of like doing low-tech Shadowrun with no corps or cyberware.

The cats are all secretly trying to take over the multiverse via mastery of dice rolling. Case in point: YouTube - Erevan, gamer kitten. (What I get for naming a cat after a member of the Seldarine.)

Noble Knight doesn't have a picture, but I've got one of these: http://www.nobleknight.com/ProductDetail.asp_Q_ProductID_E_2147359457_A_InventoryID_E_2147624447_A_ProductLineID_E_488_A_ManufacturerID_E_62_A_CategoryID_E_4_A_GenreID_E_ Uninked, as typical for Gamescience. Darkish red, with...

The Sundering never happens. Corellon steps in and stops the Elves from causing it. Which is probably too damned long ago and too big of a change to even conceive of how that would change things. >_>; Lolth somehow never finds out about Toril. No Lolth, no sodding matriarchal insanity, no...

Attempting to read PDFs for more than a few minutes makes my head hurt. I hate it. Books plz, or something like the d20 SRD. I prefer books though, I find it much easier to find what I'm looking for faster in a book. I wish companies did more softcovers. My D&D3.5 PHB is softcover, and I much...

Corellon Larethian and Erevan Ilesere, both elven gods from D&D. I semi-randomly picked Corellon as a god for my first character, a half-elven Bard. It seemed appropriate, the PHB had him as the god of the elves and having portfolio elements relevant to a Bard's interests. Since my character...

Shadowrun, for hilarity's sake. And of course, naturally, Mr. Johnson will screw you over during this.

The nearest stores to me were all three hours away and in cities I never go to, ever, so I didn't go anywhere since by the time I spent money on gas, food and buying something at the store it would have been too much for the budget, plus spending six hours on the road in California on Saturday...

It's the masochist class build. I'm picturing someone playing a Revenant Shadar-kai Malediction Invoker of the Raven Bimbo now for ultimate emo. (I swear, if I ever run 4e and someone tries that, their character dies during character creation. <_> ) I can't say the flavour of it appeals to me...
