To me that's like saying because of the Bakshi LOTR I don't want Fantasy Films to produce another movie when they did an excellent job with One Flew over the Cuckoo's nest. Ultimately I think it's the people themselves that matter more than the label of the company. Now those execs that are...

I'm not sure I understand. It's not like it would be the same producers, director, animators, or even studio execs as the last time. It's been 35 years after all. At this point what would be the difference between another studio making it or Disney making it? It's new filmmakers either way.

I bought a big bag of dice one time. I think it was a pound of dice. It came out to something like 112 dice. I don't really collect or anything. It just seemed like a good enough amount to cover everyone at my table if I have too.

One the one hand, having the characters in the world pursue their own goals (IE freeing themselves form a mad tyrant) seems quite fine with me but I do agree that that it seems like a perfect way to unite those NPC desires with what aligns to, as far as I can tell, at least one players desire to...

I've said nothing about what should happen. I'm saying the module is clear about what does happens if the PCs choose not to start the revolution. It happens anyway. It's the OP that has said that the PCs did not ally with the noble that wanted to oust the baron, or really try to enlist any aid...

Sounds like things worked out ok. The Baron and his family are not long for the world anyway. You can only be a mad tyrant for so long before one or mroe powerful nobles or the people themselves successfully do something about it. The PCs could probably come back to town after the revolution if...

Perhaps I was being too serious in August of last year. I don't remember. 🤷‍♂️

I know a little German, he's right over there

I expect it will make it will have the same mistakes BvS and MoS had. As flawed as the Whedon cut of JL was at least it made different mistakes.

As a practiced Warbow Archer he would certainly have a high strength (not that that is modeled in D&D)

Scout Harding is a Dwarf. She has superior vision in the dark compared to humans, she could not practice magic no matter how hard she tired, she does not enter the Fade when she dreams. Now like Dagna, if she chooses to identify as a Mage by studying magic she would still be unable to cast...

Are there any fantasy series that you read but disliked? That might cue us into your tastes. For example, of the recommendations already here I love The First Law Trilogy and The Black Company but I was often frustrated at the inconsistencies of Malazan and couldn't stand the Night Angel...

Doesn't the Battlesmith's Steel Defender already tread on the Beastmaster's niche while doing a much better job of it? I like the idea of the houndmaster but as an English Mastiff owner I am probably biased.

I'm extremely guilty of just playing idealized versions of myself for every character., so yes same gender. Check out r/ReasonableFantasy This is a place to share and appreciate fantasy and sci-fi art featuring women who are not over-sexualized. Some fashion is fine, but skimpy outfits purely...

I don't need a default here. If a player playing a female dwarf wants a beard cool. No beard also cool. Likewise Dragonborn having breasts or not. It's no skin off my nose either way. I don't see any value in world building those details unless the player wants to go on a quest to discover why...

Fair points all around. With how The Clone Wars wrapped up it will be interesting to see how things are tackled in Season 2 of the Mandalorian.

If wanting to fight Dragons rather than every town guard and local magistrate is radical I'll take it! ;)

With my table all I have to do to contribute meaningfully is make rational decisions

A while back I saw a Fiend Patron Warlock/Bear Totem Barbarian multiclass that really made advantage of the THP from downing foes. it looked surprisingly effective.

Bingo. Especially about the super mode. That's pretty much all that ties the Barbarian subclasses together from a narrative perspective, as opposed to say a Ranger, Wizard, or Fighter who more or less specializes. The Subclass for the barb leans more towards defining the source of their power, A...
