Revisiting this concept, I think a great way to create this kind of set-up is just to establish what the consequences are if the faction doesn't exist. Doing so for evil is pretty easy; doing so for good risks falling into cliche (oh no, order is getting too orderly again!). I think a good...

I answered that a few comments above!

I can do them pretty well but it's always just kind of agonizing. I hate the format of it. Like, the actual template.

I just don't get why they don't invest in the guild. It's literally free money and free product. There are so many products on that guild that should be on D&D Beyond, including expansions to published adventures, a huge amount of setting and character materials, even more monsters, and some...

To me, 5E is: A game about conversations, rolls of the dice, and combat d20 + mods, advantage/disadvantage, adding dice for other mods instead of raw numbers Proficiency bonus, which contradicts the above by being added various rolls too and serving other purposes STATBLOCKS STATBLOCKS...

I've read it and about 50 other psionics books, including making my own materials. Laserllama is my favorite right now; I put Steam's in the same tier as Kibbles and MCDM where its good stuff but not my preferred design expression. But I want that WotC support for D&D Beyond and also just to...

Psionics. The only thing I want is Psionics. I don't care if its Dark Sun, Far Realms, Jedi, Jean Gray, or anything else. I want Psionics. A Psion class. More Psionic subclasses. More Psionic monsters and feats. Give me Psionics. If I have a subclass for every class, or even most of them...

I'm hoping @WinningerR or @SlyFlourish can respond to this, but anyone is welcome ofc. So, there's a lot of talk about keeping D&D's huge audience in mind for 3rd Party. This is something I've thought about a lot, but I'm wondering if it might not actually be worthwhile for 3PP to do so...

Guilds biggest flaw is not having a way to allow for crowdfunded projects.

If it was returning players, that doesn't strictly relate to the claim that new players are mostly women. Returning Gen X and Xennial players may have given 5E an initial boost, but new players were largely younger women from their teens to 30s.

Didn't mean to come off as aggressive, apologies. But you didn't phrase your post as a theory, you phrased it as a fact.

People say the game isn't backwards compatiable. I run a game that has both 2014 and 2024 PCs in it. I actually run one game that has 2014, 2024, and Laserllama PCs in it. Game works fine. I could literally run a 1-10 game with RUins of Symbaroum, Lord of the Rings, and typical 2024 classes...

We can cut to the chase and ask the source though: @WinningerR and @mearls

I'm not sure why it matters; demographics for 5E have never indicated that older players outweighed younger players, neither now nor 11 years ago.

Winneger is saying that when he came in, specifically women, and a lot of high school girls, were lifting the results. No where does he indicate that it was people specifically in their 30s and 40s. 11 years ago, people in their 20s and teens and 30s came in to lift the game. That's millenials...

Yes! My Scavenger setting, which is published both digitally and physical, is a Bronze Age setting going through an apocalypse. The Great Dying is characterized by six natural disasters that are magnified to the point of wiping out cities. Scavengers have to explore their dying world or brave a...

Well Mistwell posted his summary and a huge number of the women are high school girls so yeah, its younger women in their teens, twenties, and thirties fueling this growth.

I doubt it was a bunch of 50 year old women that made the jump. Likely younger women.

Imagine the Scouring of the Shire but the Thri-Kreen run over Saruman's orcs. Fro-do and Sam-wiz come back and together they all cannibalize Saruman, ushering in a thousand years of wisdom.
