    D&D General WizKids Announces Unpainted Minis for D&D, Critical Role

    It really says something that I much prefer the look of the classic, more staid miniatures than the cartoony 5e counterparts. I believe that exact something is "I'm old."

    Malware from the ads?

    It'd be hilarious if it was the McAfee ad doing it.

    D&D General D&D AI Fail

    I'm confused. Which parts aren't true? And Morrus, shouldn't you be on the horn with WotC to get their response to these rumors that are circulating online?

    D&D General Hasbro Is Looking For Partners For Baldur's Gate 4

    Prediction: BG4 will go to whatever studio tells WotCBro that they can have a AAA game built from scratch by next summer, no problem. And the quality will be what you'd expect from that.

    Removing "Friction" In-Game?

    This. For demonstration, drop a few gummi bears in a glass of water and let them sit for a few days. Then show your players what happens the moment any of those gummis are disturbed by something passing through them.

    Looking for something new

    Spend a buck over at Humble Bundle right now and get the WFRP 4e Starter Set plus some extras. You get some decent pregens, a few starter adventures, and the first book of a monster campaign. Fairly straightforward system, combat only involves a single role each, TotM play is no problem, and you...

    Board Game Arkham Horror Getting an RPG from Edge Studio

    I predict a massive feeling of déjà vu when the art for this game is revealed.

    D&D General Demetrios1453 Plays the Gold Box Games

    Please tell us you handed the players the code wheels then gave them some sort of word puzzle to figure out! :ROFLMAO: And yes, thank you OP for doing this! This is bringing back some great memories.

    D&D 5E (2014) What if everyone in the setting had a [Class]?

    Doesn't this kind of go back to how D&D was originally designed 50+ years ago? Monsters were their own thing, but pretty much every humanish NPC all followed the same build rules as PCs. Those ultra high level spells that the BBEG's had weren't even obtainable by players.

    How do you tell when something is AI art?

    You can tell from some of the pixels. /s As mentioned above, it's rapidly becoming more difficult to tell, as the developers are working on fixing the obvious telltale signs (anatomy issues, weird blendings and blurs). At this point, it seems to come down to abnormalities in fine details, or...

    The Rise And Fall Of Evil Genius Games

    Thank you for the excellent write-up. This really sounds like somebody who knows the business of marketing for tech companies that don't turn a profit for years and years on end (and have no problem dumping tons of money into that unprofitable marketing) trying to apply that mindset to what...

    Who’s your best Batman?

    The dude with the Adam West Batmobile? That was parked outside my office once when I worked in DC. Nice car.

    Best "rats in the tavern cellar" map?

    The original Baldur's Gate had you clearing rats out of a storehouse as a training/tutorial mission. Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance has you start by clearing rats out of the tavern cellar. Icewind Dale mixes it up having you clear some beetles out of the tavern's cellar. I know I've played a few...

    D&D 5E (2014) Using "D&D 2024" instead of "5e24"

    MS went from 360 down to One, so we can't entirely rule the possibility out.

    Your most pointless TV/movie/book nitpicks

    You clearly don't have Ted Striker's drinking problem. And speaking of nits to pick, don't even get me started on those movies.
