    What are you reading in 2025?

    I loved saga of the seven suns. The trilogy that followed was also very good.

    D&D General [rant]The conservatism of D&D fans is exhausting.

    I kind of feel like this is a sadness within long-term players, especially those who have picked up each new edition and had fun playing them, to then reach a point where the current edition of the game, which you've supported for so long, has now passed you by. With social media being what it...

    AD&D 2E Huh. AD&D 2e is my favorite D&D

    One of the things I liked about becmi was that I only had to take the one book into school. With 2e, I think I was taking the core 3 of PHB, MM, and DMG.

    D&D General How Was Your Last Session?

    The last session I played was Pirate Borg and it was great. There were only 2 players but we both went in and randomly created our characters, creating our background from various traits we rolled (I was a former nurse who got abducted by a pirate lord who now has a vendetta against me after I...

    D&D General Sandbox style: Rumors say a +1 sword is in a cave nearby. Go get it?

    As others have mentioned, I probably wouldn't frame it as "+1 sword", your players might assume it is only a +1 sword on account of them being 1st level. Whether you give it a name and history or just bait the hook with something like "a sword which never tarnishes sits within these caves" at...

    D&D General Simpsons Get Official D&D Minis

    Man I hate April 2nd. The internet is just a bunch of April Fool's jokes being posted by people the USA.

    What if Studio Ghibli directed Lord of the Rings?

    I wonder if you took an image and entered it if chatgpt would notice and say no or if it would create the image. I'm not even sure if this can be done in the free version. Edit: Looks like it could tell an image of the 1st Avengers movie was the poster so it wouldn't do it. Not sure how it...

    What if Studio Ghibli directed Lord of the Rings?

    Or maybe people are just having fun creating Ghibli pictures. There doesn't have to be some ulterior motive behind it.

    What if Studio Ghibli directed Lord of the Rings?

    Now I'm wondering if someone is gonna redo an avengers trailer in studio ghibli style. I'd like to see a ghibli Hulk and Thor.

    D&D General Which edition handled alignment best?

    When I still cared about alignment, I felt 4e did it best with its 5 points, but I don't really think alignment has mattered much since 3e when there were still effects that were impacted by it.

    What if Studio Ghibli directed Lord of the Rings?

    That looks awesome, his art style looks like it would work well for lord of the rings.

    D&D General Do you transfer characters between campaigns?

    I might have taken the same character concept to a new game, but generally not the same actual character. More than likely, even the same concept would have been rare as I'd probably play other concepts that I have kicking around.

    Wizards of the Coast Is Sunsetting Sigil's Active Development

    I'm not sure about that, but maybe they've decided in-person play is their focus while supporting other VTT providers. They have a lot of roll20 assets that they've created so they might be thinking that's a better way forward for online play rather than their own bespoke system.

    WotC Mike Mearls: "D&D Is Uncool Again"

    I killed my subscription when I realised I wasn't really using it anymore. I do have a couple of characters on the generator but I can comfortably fit them within the 6 character limit.

    D&D 5E (2014) Feat, Magic Items, or Multiclassing? Which do you choose?

    Magical Items. I can live without feats and just use ability increases. I like having the option to multiclass but can also live without it, I probably more often than not go single classed anyway. Unless it was a very specific campaign, I feel like magical items are part of the allure of DnD...

    D&D 5E (2024) The Ray Winninger Era of D&D 5e

    Planescape was definitely a highlight for me. I quite liked that ravenloft guidebook as well, not sure when it came out. Can't remember if I have the book or just DDB access. I think after a while I ended up with DDB versions only, except for Planescape where I bought a proper copy.

    Wizards of the Coast Is Sunsetting Sigil's Active Development

    I wonder if those are mainly the GenX at the older end of the scale. The younger half trends closer to millennials, I think I'm in that bracket where they've added in the term xennial to cover the crossover. In regard to work and social skills. I make sure to get tasks done for work, always...

    Wizards of the Coast Is Sunsetting Sigil's Active Development

    The more I think about it, the more I think I must have completely missed it returning. I remember using the demo and thinking it was great then the window you mentioned must have hit and I just assumed it was done for good.

    Do you buy new versions of TTRPG games when you haven't had time to play the older version sitting on your shelf?

    I have all three editions of Astonishing Swordsmen and Sorcerers of Hyperborea. Never played it. One can dream though.

    D&D General [ART THREAD]Your Personal Favorite D&D Art For a Monster

    I'm not an Erol Otus fan either, but his art did capture the weirdness of early DnD.
