    D&D 5E (2014) I believe a slow and light product release can cause more harm in the long run.

    I don't want a crowded, bloated release schedule BUT I want them to start getting to campaign settings before YEARS go by.

    D&D 5E (2014) I believe a slow and light product release can cause more harm in the long run.

    I can understand the slow release schedule. Sorta. I don't get doubling down on hardback campaign adventures to the exclusion of other stuff.

    D&D 5E (2014) I believe a slow and light product release can cause more harm in the long run.

    Some things to consider about the release schedule: a) how much is motivated by a desire to avoid bloat? WOTC has sadi this pretty consitantly so I think we have to take them at their word. b) how much is a function of their small staff? c) how much of when and what comes out is partially...

    Adventure Time Book For D&D?

    Very interesting.

    D&D 5E (2014) Hurry up and wait!

    One thing you could do is have other adventurers or faction NPCs tackle the cult during the downtime. What about an adventuring party with a friendly rivalry going on with your party? With some of the pressure off your party, they would have some time for downtime. You can concept the rival...

    The Realms WILL Be Updated!

    Zaran raises an excellent point. One I think that argues for some sort of all-in-ne summary product. Maybe not a setting hardback since they seem adverse to that for some reason. Maybe not a box set. What that leaves for them to try I'm not sure aside from online article updates. Or maybe...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D classic settings or new worlds to explore?

    oh, I don't disagree Umbran. I think the problem is that they are trying to have their cake and eat it too. They want to make it generic enough so people can pug it elsewhere and use it... but they alsoo want to set it in the Realms to sell to Realms fans. The thing is, I'm sure that in...

    The Realms WILL Be Updated!

    Oh I agree that there's a good amount of detail on the Dessarin valley and on Red Larch. Problem is it has little value beyond the Princes of Apocalypse plot. There aren't any interesting plot hooks leading elsewhere nor interesting NPCs or events, locations to spark them. It;s pretty good...

    The Realms WILL Be Updated!

    How can they be updating the Realms via organized play? Players and Dms not in organized play don't have access to those adventures. If they are using those as a means of presenting updates that's a very odd choice. And the adventure hardbacks? There's honestly not much setting information...

    Fantastic Four (trailer)

    I love the classic 60s FF, the Byrne 80s FF and the Mark Waid run. This movie doesn't look like the FF at all, excpet perhaps the Ultimate version.

    Could you outline it then because I honestly have no idea.

    The Realms WILL Be Updated!

    I think alot of people would be excited about a new approach if WOTC could be clear on what that means.

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D classic settings or new worlds to explore?

    It seems like there has got to be a better way of supporting 5E than 2 adventure hardbacks a year.

    [April 2015] What are you reading?

    Some recent dollar tree finds, all $1: Shadow Chaser by Alexey Pehov Touchstone by Melanie Rawn Way of the Traitor by Laura Joh Rowland I haven't finished the Pehov book yet but I did like the Rowland book. I'm not sure about the Rawn one yet because it appears to be about bards...

    D&D 5E (2014) Perfect example of the kind of interaction that I wish Wizards had with it's community.

    You're seem to be assuming a couple things here. Feel free to correct me if I have interpreted you wrong or misunderstood. One: You seem to think bad interactions are largely the result of fans behavior and not WOTC.. I would think its a two-way street with both groups being partially to...

    The Realms WILL Be Updated!

    There are a couple points about your last question: 1. What about people new to the realms? What about people who don't have the old books? 2. What about people who don't want to piece together a current snapshot from the older material? Not everyone wants to do all that work. Most people use...

    The Realms WILL Be Updated!

    What would be cool would be something like Fonstad's original Atlas of the Forgotten Realms to go along with whatever form they take the update in.

    D&D 5E (2014) Chris Perkins: We ARE updating the Realms.

    The whole reason I aksed was because alot of the vague and cryptic comments coming from WOTc raised doubts in my mind.

    It's kinda surreal reading forum posts about your own tweets.
