I said Skywalker...meant Solo. But, the point remains the same.

Ok, so I finally went and saw Star Wars; Let's Play it Safe. I will start off with the tldr; the entire movie is pretty much spoiled in the opening crawl. So much potential and so disappointing. I could see Abrams wanting to take risks, but I could also see Darth Mickey saying, "There is no...

Man, it was emotionally brutal, but so good. So damn good!! If anyone here hasn't seen it yet, WATCH IT! It didn't detract too much from the overall story. But, in places, it was a bit heavy handed, which induced the eyerolls.

I agree with you 100% about the Leftovers. Man, what an incredible show! Brutal, heart-wrenching...just beautifully crafted. Watchmen was good. There were some episodes that were truly excellent, but I did have to roll my eyes a little at the social/political commentary. The good news is that...

Yeah, but at least the Wheel of Time wasn't as obnoxious as RAS. My friends and I had a drinking game going. Take a drink any time Jordan described clothing or any time Nynaeve tugged her braid. We decided to nix the game, though...we were at risk of dying of alcohol poisoning.

Yeah, no...not interested.

I'm not too keen on that, to be honest. I think they've been overdone. It's time for something new and different to freshen up the setting.

DragonLance has always been one of my favorite settings; I love the epic feel of the world, where everyday people become great heroes. So, what would I like? Definitely a setting book. I'm not sure if it is feasible to reset the setting to the War of the Lance, especially considering all of the...

Or root canals

Is that like Sham-WOW!? A Sham-WOW-bling mound? Ok...I'm getting terrible ideas here!

I think this is the best approach, and I wouldn't be surprised if there was a supplement released in the future that takes this approach as well.

As someone who never got into Eberron, I had a great deal of reservation picking up this book. I didn't get into it during 3e, nor did I during 4e. So, I thought I'd give it a try here, and I am glad I did. Knowing very little about the world and its history, this gives me a great overview of...

Honestly, the entire Icewind Dale trilogy was a pleasure to read...it was fun, and Drizzt was actually an enjoyable character before he became the Gary Stu to end all Gary Stu's.

We are, as a society, too quick to believe accusations/allegations without reviewing all of the evidence. Today, too many people are able to point the finger at someone, accuse them of doing something atrocious with little or no evidence, and have that person's livelihood damaged permanently by...

You too? I am really enjoying it, and I am starting to get a desire to pull out my FFG Edge of Empire book and start brain-storming.

I actually liked the initial dungeon in the bath house...was quite flavorful, and I loved the cult of the dead three. They ran into the witch down there, and it would have been a TPK from the witch's fireball if it wasn't for the Red Dragonborn Paladin (the player is rping him like The Tick, and...

I was thinking about the Concentration mechanic from previous UA articles; I remember liking it because if felt different than your typical spell-casting class. This got me to thinking about some of the classic Psionic defenses from previous editions (mainly Mind Blank, Thought Shield, and...

I agree that the core class should be a singular class with sub-classes. However, I also propose that there be a psionic subclass for some/most of the other classes (having a hard time justifying a psionic Druid, cleric, or wizard, but I'm sure there will be ideas). The Battlemind/Psychic...

The 43 class variants, to me, was one of the best UA's in years. I liked that they were looking at new ways to use the 5E rules to create more customization for characters. I hope they continue with that line of thought.

Yeah, you and I talked about this last night. In 3e, I really only had one or two players to play psionic characters. However, in 2e, I had a long running Dark Sun game that had quite a few. So, I think it depends on the campaign. I am not disagreeing with Jeremy about the popularity. Overall...
