To be clear. I went to the subredit, searched on Gods, searched on Religion, found nothing contrary to my position, found nothing affirming yours.
I think you are just wrong, that is my opinion and nothing you have provided makes me question it.
Tell me how many people don't. Tell me how many agree with your position.
Like I said we will see if they publish a Darksun setting and in the unlikely event they do, we will see if Darksun fans like it.
Ok here is the first video that came up when I googled Darksun video:
Time 2:10: "While Dragonlance complain about their evil goddes, at least they have gods""
It literally took me like 5 minutes to find that.
How about this:
We'll just see if they release another Darksun for 5E and if they don't then I'm right.
In the unlikely event they do release a new Darksun and people come on here and whine that it is not real Darksun, then I am still right.
If they release it and everyone on here agrees it...
If they stay true to the setting the prevalent subclasses would be evil-oriented (Draconic Sorcerers and Defiler Wizards) and there is also a clear eugenics theme to the whole Mul lineage.
You can do away with these things, but you are not left with much Dark Sun.
FWIW I am playing a 5E...
I think the game setting does say that and DND shorts mentioned it in his recent evaluation on the setting as well, so while it is my opinion, it is not only my opinion.
BG3 is a very character driven game. BG1 and 2 were more story driven. This is part of it what you are seeing. The NPCs are "stars" in BG3, right there along with TAV. With the exception of Imoen, the NPCs were mostly supporting cast in BG1/2. You had a lot more of them too.
Well it was tragedy when 3 of the 4 party members were incapacitated indefinitely. The Barbarian player is a classic kind of guy that plays that PC. Someone who does not know the rules about spells that well, so they play a brawler.
It was my turn and I said "Well this is going to hurt but I...
I was playing a game recently and an enemy Dragon cast Hypnotic Pattern on the party from far away (I will say about 70 feet, he was on the ground though). Three of the four PCs failed their save. My Dance Bard is the only one who passed. My Bard is a back-liner and is pretty fragile so this...
In a campaign we are about to start there is going to be an interesting variation on this theme. The Familiar is the PC. Mechanically it is the same, the Warlock's pact is with a Fiend that controls the Warlock and the Warlock summons fiend and allows him to take a form through the Find...
I don't think this is the whole story. I have played with MCDM minions as a player, not a DM. In the situation you describe the minions are all one-hit, but the way the damage carryover works the Fighter is going to do more damage and kill more monsters.
For example with Minions with 11 hps...
I would disagree. Out in context of society in the 1990s, what happened on Athas is what happens when you lose religion.
The 90s saw a rapid expansion in religion and fundamentalism worldwide ..... Darksun is product of that era.
I think today the prevailing opinion is exactly the opposite -...
That is what happened because the Gods Abandoned Athas. There were Gods during the Green Age, but they either left on their own accord or were driven away by Elementals. Either way the morals left with them and you ended up with the Dragon, Defilers etc.
Look at the changes to PCs and...
So if you did not like the design of a subclass riding a purple Dragon then you are part of an "obsessive toxic fandom".
I guess that is what I am then, because I did not like the subclass. I did not like the mechanics with or without the tie to the Purple Dragons, the tie in just made it worse.
Isn't the Hasbro board and leaders of WOTC some of these very oligarchs?
I don't think they are going to do this, but if they did it would be a heck of an example of greenwashing.
I would not say these are minor things in Dark Sun, slavery especially is central to the setting.
Also the number one theme overall in Dark Sun is that loss of religion causes regression and devolution of society into something without morals or ethics and is followed with extreme environmental...
No I understand. Using a weapon (or tool or skill) and being proficient in that weapon, tool or skill are different things and have nothing to do with one another.
You keep going on and on about how commoners use crossbows, which even if true has no bearing at all on proficiency.
The section...
