    Summer Knights Online (GenCon Online Replacement event)

    I signed up at the last minute so there wasn't many slots left. I did manage to get into a session of the Ennie winning Shadowdark.

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Beyond Article on Crafting

    Of course D&D should have complete crafting rules in the PHB. 4th edition didn't and look what happened to it!

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Beyond Article on Crafting

    I thought people wanted D&D to be more than a combat arcade???

    D&D General Lies, Darn Lies, and Statistics: Why DPR Isn't the Stat to Rule them All

    Sounds like you need to give him a +3 rapier, asap! If you're worried about it making him overpowered, just give it the quality, "all attacks with this weapon draw attacks of opportunity" (or maybe have the weapon have a -4 Con mod) to make it balanced. I'm sure your player will love his new...

    Which game does monster hunting well?

    Why not just play the Supernatural Role Playing Game then???

    D&D 4E D&D 4E Post-Mortem

    The last time I ran 4E, it was great! Then again, when your table group is drawn from Enworld, where the greatest TTRPGers on the planet assemble, that's par for the course.

    D&D 5E (2024) 3,000 Player's Handbooks Available At Gen Con

    How so? It is more then an Ad should have? Are Facebook ads an acceptable way to advertise D&D???

    D&D 4E D&D 4E Post-Mortem

    4E, like any TTRPG, has certain assumptions. If you violate those assumptions, a bad time can ensue.

    D&D General I'm a Creep, I'm a Powergamer: How Power Creep Inevitably Destroys Editions

    So you don't mind that 2E put D&D on the course of being owned by a megacorp???

    Graphic Design Layout Artists: The Reason TTRPGs Look Great

    People who complain that the stylish layout makes it hard to read should go read the 4th Edition rulebooks. Firing up the imagination is vital, understanding the rules is optional. After all, won't the DM just ignore them and use their judgement anyway???

    Reinventing the Wheel

    If a person did want to become well rounded and knowledgeable about all aspects of TTRPGs by playing different ones,what would I recommend??? What should be recommended???

    D&D 5E (2014) Legendary Resistance shouldn't be optional

    Why not? This monster is so powerful/special, an effect that would out right kill/render powerless other beings only slightly weakens it! You're free to come up an answer that'll best fit your sense of simulation; but I'm not willing to spend the time or energy to jump through the loops...

    D&D 5E (2024) New Jeremy Crawford Interviews

    Then don't call it a compatibility issue? (You might not be though?) Call it a planned obsolescence issue instead?? Compatibility means you can still use old material with new. Planned obsolescence means they kill the old stuff so you have to use the new stuff. Though it's more like they make...

    D&D 5E (2014) Legendary Resistance shouldn't be optional

    The solution is to give solo monsters powerful abilities that scale based on the number of LRs they have. Like the monster has an extra attack for every LR they have. That way, spellcasters will feel useful when forcing LRs.

    D&D 5E (2024) New Jeremy Crawford Interviews

    What do people want out of backwards compatibility??? Do you just want to ignore the 2024 versions of stuff and keep playing the 2014 forever??? Edit: typo

    Is there any genre or theme that the TTRPG medium does not work for?

    All you really need is a karaoke machine. Pick the song that best fits a moment. It would be much easier to have an adventure path with musical numbers in it. You could play prerecorded songs to serve as exposition.

    Critical Role Is Critical Role Scripted

    Indeed. The Maid RPG is really good for that!
