Please, join us Brand New D&D Video Game from WotC's New Acquisition Tuque Games

True, true. What irks me is when the development studio with a record of making great games is now owned by a parent company with deep pockets that's running things by artificial deadlines. But I admit that is far from every situation. Edit: and I sincerely hope not this situation. Hasbro...

They laid the marketing spin on real think in this story. At the core this will only succeed if the folks at Tuque are passionate about making high quality D&D games, not trying to push out a AAA game. Which in all fairness could be the case, but I've no way of knowing for sure. After all...

I think the original trilogy had a lot of passive menace in Vader. ESB in particular it's like I can feel his barely controlled rage. The end of Rogue one showed just how terrifying it would be for a non-force user to have to battle that menace. I loved it.

Also my number one. The music, the silhouettes, the emotion in Luke as he starts kicking the crap out of Vader, his rejection of the dark side, and what that wrought in his father all with Palpatine's delightful evil spread through it all. It was extremely thrilling and moving.

Before this becomes a thread completely about semantics (like all threads do) I will say Obsidian has given me better Bioware fantasy style games than Bioware is giving these days with Pillars of Eternity, and now a better Fallout style game than Bethesda is giving me these days. They...

Same here. We all chatted about concepts before the start of the campaign.

That looks like a Trailer I could pretty much recreate with with toys I still have in boxes (I have a veritable wretched hive of scum and villainy from when I was a kid) and a little paint. Which is to say I'm sold.

Has anyone mentioned esports? Gotta have esports in 7E

It's obvious that WotC will want to go in a bold new direction. Dungeons & Dragons 7E will lack dungeons and dragons.

Even as you get older you might care less about longevity, but you'll care more about relief from everyday aches, pains, and injures. Any 75 year old would go for a sure fire way to make them feel 60 again much less 40 or 30. Not because they would live longer, but because they would live...

Agreed. The Dread mechanic encourages players to not do risky things (for risk of the tower falling) or worse not do things at all. In a one shot this isn't such a big deal as people will just play as they have always played, but long term people start to game systems, and this is one of the...

True. I has having my usual internet stroll into pedantry. :D

Take diabetes off the table then. Magically making oneself more resistant to dying is going to have broad appeal to many human beings.

@Hriston nice delve into the history! In 5e at least it also seems to be a measure of your ability to avoid the "Unconscious" condition. So I like to reframe it as a measure of one's ability to move and fight (or otherwise act) and leave it at that. I agree with the rest of your reasoning.

Just a snowball effect I am sure. One person talks about Diabetes, then a few more chime in. Note: Cancer has also been mentioned by about as many users as Diabetes has. Also note: we have more cases of Cancer and Diabetes these days because fewer people are dying from heart failure than 20...

We have drifted quite a bit now haven't we. See the previous 5 pages of posts for the answer 😉

Oh 31. That was the age I was when I got my diabetes diagnosis. The same week my oldest was born too so I'll always remember.

Absolutely true! This hits home for me. I took a couple Latin/Swing/Ballroom classes in college. I was dancing about 15 hours a week. I lost weight and gained quite a bit of confidence. Between those two gains and the endorphins you get from exercise it was very helpful with my depression...

Oh I'm hardly an authority. If anyone did ask my advice I would say follow whatever type of exercise that inspires you to exercise. By all accounts aerobic exercise is the best for reducing blood sugar levels overall, but I pretty much can't stand it. But doing exercise that involve lifting...
