And then they come back 3 months later and demand that you create an account with them if you want to continue to have access to the product you "bought".

For most spells, I don't think it matters if the players know about them in advance, but some spells can be build defining, and learning about a spell 3 levels after you made build choices that could have synergized with the new spell can be frustrating. But seriously, 5000 spells?

I have met a lot of incompetent managers over the course of my career, yes.

"In half the time, with half as many developers!"

Any misinformation he spread was not due to AI. Either his "source" lied, or the "source" never existed in the first place.

That's a non-issue. It should be trivial to check that the AI modified quotes have the same meaning as the originals before publishing them. It's a clever way to protect your sources, something I'm sure we'll see done a lot in the coming years!

He never retracted anything though, even after wotc employees told him they definitely read the surveys, he maintained that his source told him that nobody read the surveys and that he had no explanation for why his source said something completely different than what former wotc employees were...

For once, I'm inclined to think that it's just plain incompetence among the project managers.

I'll be extremely surprised if the VTT doesn't have microtransactions, anything else would be leaving money on the table, and Hasbro hates that. The D&D microtransactions were probably removed because they were competing with macrotransactions, and that's not good business.

They've never bothered with any excuse for lore inconsistencies so far in 5e.

I like the sound of this adventure, except for the introduction where the PCs are summoned to work for the 3 Awesome NPCs you've heard about from Other Products, especially the Super Awesome Witch Tasha who broke the rules of time and space just so she could be here and let you experience how...

There is cash on other tables as well, and Larian can only sit at one of them.

I think that's unlikely. The first rule of quitting your job is to say nothing to anyone at work until you hand in your resignation. If your employer suspects you're thinking about leaving they're going to start looking for a replacement, which might not be ideal for you if you eventually decide...

I think they should hire Swen Vincke of Larian, he seems to be an expert at running a successful gaming business without sacrificing the creative aspects. I doubt he'd want the job though.

I don't think AI matters with trademarks. If I get ChatGPT to come up with a company name for my new business, then I believe I can trademark that name as normal. Trademarks are identifiers for businesses and products, not creative works, so the creativity or lack thereof of AI doesn't come into...

I think the best way to get more people into DM'ing is to make sure that being a DM is as fun as possible. Make it clear that the DM is a participant in the game as much as the players, and not just putting on a performance for them.

I'm an enworld poster, just like you and everyone else here.

After reading your posts in this thread, I'm starting to think the techbros aren't so bad after all. ;)

It's a default assumption in D&D, change that and you're playing a very different game.

Why does the connection need to be reliable? It only needs to work once to get the message to the contact. Maybe most messages fail, but this one gets through because PCs are special and this PC has a special feature that lets him send messages. It seems like you're looking for reasons for the...
