    D&D 5E (2014) Wizards Should Hire Paizo

    I'm probably going to be in a minority, but no I dont want Paizo writing for 5th edition adventures. To be honest, I havent liked any of their stuff for the last couple years. Neither the AP's nor the mini- AP's(formerly known as the module line). The stories and encounters havent been that...

    D&D 5E (2014) I believe the Greyhawk Campaign setting was a missed opportunity for Wizards of the Coast.

    Again, the realms DOES have tons and tons of lore to draw on. Myth Draneor could come back or be exploited. Red wizards civil war or get together to conqueor areas. North unites and tries to bring winter down with them. Tons of other stuff. Again, stealing from greyhawk or other items leaves...

    D&D 5E (2014) I believe the Greyhawk Campaign setting was a missed opportunity for Wizards of the Coast.

    the problem with that is that unlike greyhawk which felt like a unified world, the more I played in Golarion the more it felt more like a patch work world rather then one that flows together- here be pirates, here be french revolution, here be gunpowered, here be tech, here be Egypt and so...

    D&D 5E (2014) I believe the Greyhawk Campaign setting was a missed opportunity for Wizards of the Coast.

    Whats rediculous is that if one ever expects greyhawk released, taking its stuff and sticking in the realms where its NEVER been will guarentee you will never see greyhawk. Will they create anything? Again, doubtful if you take what was before and stick it where its never been. Again, greyhawk...

    D&D 5E (2014) I believe the Greyhawk Campaign setting was a missed opportunity for Wizards of the Coast.

    While I agree those and other items such as alot of novels do make FR a more a better choice(never mind in my opinion is a crappy setting), and I'm not mad that they choose it. I get that. What pisses me off to no end is the fact the FR has enough lore that you should not Fing pillage my...

    D&D 5E (2014) Observations and opinions after 8 levels and a dragon fight

    Can I ask which module/adventure was the encounter from?

    Edition warring is for chumps, but isn't D&D specific

    The second part is the real problem. Folks can do alot of things, believe alot of things- technology advanaces, etc..... But the reality is that the CGL does a HORRIBLE job editing, playtesting and doesnt even use the feedback it pays folks to test out and put in. I've been a huge SR fan...

    Anyone remember TORG?

    If you do, I have a question- in the process of bring back a torg-esque game, mostly in hero system because thats what folks want to play, but digging through all my books, I cant remember- What happens at the border of two different cosms- say core earth and living lands. Is there a transition...

    D&D 5E (2014) If you're planning to run 5e, have you started a homebrew campaign?

    I'm trying to find time to run a game I was suppose to start in june. It will be a quasi homebrew, only so much as using one or two shells to start with (hellfrost or greyhawk) and tweeking them to my own ideas to run.

    D&D 5E (2014) Hoard of the Dragon Queen: As it Turns out, it's Pretty Good (so far)

    Go to walmart. Sign up for a walmart prepaid visa card. For $3, you can load any amount of money onto the card, and it acts just like a visa card for online transactions. I know, I had to get one to pick up some paizo items 3 years back or so- who only take credit cards and not paypal.

    D&D 5E (2014) I think we can safely say that 5E is a success, but will it lead to a new Golden Era?

    Majority? No highly doubtful. A segment of gamers? Heck yes. I know at least 4 locally that are tired of pathfinder, paizo for a variety of reasons. 5e looks good so far and the 3 products released(beginner box, PHB, First adventure especially). Myself personally has a variety of reasons to...

    D&D 5E (2014) Hoard of the Dragon Queen: As it Turns out, it's Pretty Good (so far)

    Except its not. Again, 6 books to complete an adventure vs 2 or 3. Individually 1 pathfinder AP is cheaper then 1 5e book.....but you need to buy 3 times that to complete an AP vs 5e. Again, $22.99 vs 29.99 BEFORE we go looking for discounts is NOT siginifcantly more expensive,

    D&D 5E (2014) Hoard of the Dragon Queen: As it Turns out, it's Pretty Good (so far)

    I'm going to quibble with you and say you're not quite correct that its much more expensive. As a former subscriber to the AP, and players companion, and campaign setting, and........no its NOT more expensive. Not including subscriber discounts or amazon discounts, the AP- all 6 @ 22.99 is $132...

    D&D 5E (2014) How many of your campaigns ACTUALLY ever get to 20th level?

    One. The Ptolus game I was involved in for 5 years got to that point in 3.5 rules.

    D&D 5E (2014) Armor as DR. Is anyone considering this?

    I believe Iron Heros did have either classes or mechanics that used armor as DR.

    D&D 5E (2014) What Campaign Setting Do You Plan On Using?

    I want to see what the new adventure is like tyranny of dragons first......but I don't like the realms. I'm torn between Hellfrost and Greyhawk.

    D&D 5E (2014) Campaign settings in 5e

    Gods no, please don't ape paizo's AP release. Some of the AP's are swing and misses. I'd rather spend more time on adventures and settings. Some of their products feel rushed. Each of those settings are just as big and wide as paizo's. Right now it looks like FR is the star of the show. Lets...

    D&D 5E (2014) Speculating about the future of the D&D industry/community in a post-5E world

    I have to say that's pretty accurate. The never ending splat books is very true. Friends use to joke you could be a left handed juggling sheep herder from a bad home and get bonuses for everything just mentioned.....
