    D&D General [rant]The conservatism of D&D fans is exhausting.

    Ever checked out the Monopoly expansion packs?? https://shop.hasbro.com/en-us/monopoly/expansion Or my attempt to discuss who shouldn't play D&D?? https://www.enworld.org/threads/who-shouldnt-play-d-d.706053/

    D&D General Have you ever used Acquisitions Incorporated?

    There's no easier way for players to tell an organization is evil then by seeing a minion get punished for not putting the right cover sheet on the TPS reports.

    Do you think it's possible for that to not be the case???

    D&D General When (or if?) the FICTION is out to get you??

    But not THE source of the fiction. The rules of the RPG, the players, and the fictional frame of the situation are also sources of the fiction. While the DM can (and should) nudge things, they should not override the entire construct of the fiction to force it towards their preferred outcome.

    D&D General When (or if?) the FICTION is out to get you??

    When I DM, I don't want to get or not get the PCs. I, ideally, am a conduit of the fiction, and it gets (or not gets) the PCs on its terms. Who else operates like this? Care to share example??

    D&D General D&D Editions: Anybody Else Feel Like They Don't Fit In?

    Well there's always purging D&D of everyone who's different from you. Then you'll fit in for sure!!!

    D&D 5E (2024) Is Combat Tedious on Purpose?

    Give the slowest PC a magic weapon that is +6 but loses the bonus (for the day) if their turn ever last longer than 30 seconds. That'll help speed things up.

    D&D General Your D&D Party is too big! (Science says scheduling is hard)

    Mini documentary Youtube channel Sci Show has an episode on why it's so hard to schedule a game of D&D. Turns out it's not just us. Science proves scheduling is hard!!

    Hasbro CEO Chris Cocks Is Talking About AI in D&D Again

    Frankly, I think more Enworlders could benefit from using AI. WOTC has no interest in stuff like D&D's economy, a low magic game, grittiness, etc. But Chat GPT can and will make that stuff for you!!!

    D&D 5E (2014) Mike Mearls 5E 2014 Monster Mods?

    You could also just cut everyone's HP in half. That'll achieve the same thing???

    D&D General What Is D&D Generally Bad At That You Wish It Was Better At?

    Reading this thread, I would have to say that D&D is bad at setting expectations. Many people come to D&D with opposing desires; either with other players or with the game itself.

    Pathfinder 2E Why are all the magic items so boring?

    Blame all the DMs who ever complained about PCs breaking their campaigns with overpowered magic items.

    D&D 5E (2014) 2024 D&D is 2014 D&D with 4E sprinkled on top

    I already have a regular group so more adventures around ENcity arn't in the cards. Even if it was, 4E isn't the most in demand game in these parts. Even Start Playing has few options for 4E! (but one game is close to starting at time of this posting)...
