    D&D 5E (2024) Next issue of Game Informer will have details on the two upcoming Forgotten Realms books

    I think you misinterpreted what I was talking about. I want A Kara Tur to exist. I do not care if it is THE Kara Tur that was in the 2e box set. If names are bad translations and pig language, rename them. If there are bad stereotypes, remove them. If it makes sense to have two Japans, keep them...

    D&D 5E (2024) Next issue of Game Informer will have details on the two upcoming Forgotten Realms books

    I think the fact that Kara Tur is generally rather obscure at this point (the last time it got anything more than a passing mention was 30 years ago) and the fact its been a century since it was canonically described, you could do a LOT of revision while keeping the general theme of "Faeruns...

    D&D General More Details Revealed for Forgotten Realms Digital Expansions

    I'll be bet dollars to donuts that genasi are one ( four?) of them. They need an update even against MotM and played an important role in Calimshan. Either they will bring them back as four specific species or one species with four legacies like tieflings. .

    D&D General More Details Revealed for Forgotten Realms Digital Expansions

    I never said or thought free. The Mortuary wasn't free. I just didn't think they were going to put PC facing stuff in it. That said, I don't think anything here is going to be exclusive. Dhampir is a Ravenloft option and you know dang well any horror/Ravenloft book is going to have them. The...

    Purple Dragon Knight Retooled as Banneret in D&D's Heroes of Faerun Book

    Depends on what feedback WotC got on the survey. I wager, based on a lot of comments here and elsewhere, the two most common pieces of feedback they got was "Purple Dragon Knights shouldn't have dragon pets" and "PDK is too specific a concept for a subclass." (The latter being people who want to...

    Purple Dragon Knight Retooled as Banneret in D&D's Heroes of Faerun Book

    In short, there will still be Cormyr knights riding amethyst dragons, except you don't get to play one. Enjoy your second wind burat heal.

    Purple Dragon Knight Retooled as Banneret in D&D's Heroes of Faerun Book

    Exactly. They didn't do a UA on the lore of Cormyr's knighthood. That part was already in the Adventure book. The art was ordered. They didn't get rid of that. What they did was offer a new dragonrider subclass named after the worst subclass in 5e, and the fandom told them: "no, we want the crap...

    Purple Dragon Knight Retooled as Banneret in D&D's Heroes of Faerun Book

    Yup. Just like the zhentarium and red wizards are always scheming villains who are kill on sight. Imagine if they tried to make Zhents a mercenary army or the red wizards magic merchants. That would go against decades of established lore. Next you'll tell me there are non evil drow or...

    Purple Dragon Knight Retooled as Banneret in D&D's Heroes of Faerun Book

    This right here is the biggest issue with D&D going forward. It's caught in a catch 22 of people who cry for new ideas and innovations but stubbornly cling to traditions created 40 years ago. People hear claim they want the world to expand and grow, but when the dragon knights of Cormyr get...

    Dhampir and Other Species To Be Included in Astarion's Book of Hungers

    Oh for sure. I don't for a second think we're not getting Dhampir in some future Ravenloft book or some Monster of the Multiverse take 2 book.

    Purple Dragon Knight Retooled as Banneret in D&D's Heroes of Faerun Book

    I'm torn on this. On the one hand, this is going to be a much more usable generic knight/warlord subclass, and its probably a lot more lore appropriate. On the other hand, you are losing a freaking dragon as a pet/ally/mount. The real question is whether it will be able to meet the expectations...

    D&D General More Details Revealed for Forgotten Realms Digital Expansions

    I'm going to wager they will be on sale separately. They didn't just delay the digital release of Forge of the Artificer just to screw game stores with a bundle bonus exclusive. They are them right now to pretty up the bundle, but I don't think they will sacrifice potential sales from people who...

    D&D General More Details Revealed for Forgotten Realms Digital Expansions

    I'm willing to bet the farm that it gets reprinted in whatever Ravenloft book they put out with the horror subclasses. Sooner rather than later.

    D&D 5E (2024) Here's The Covers of BOTH of November's Forgotten Realms Books

    Who is"they" in this sentence? My issue is that people cry "AI wolf" so much at real art made my real artists just because they don't like said art, to the point that if everyone keeps confusing real art with AI, that they can start using AI and most of the people crying wolf won't be believed...
