Binged the first 3 episodes last night. No spoilers. I like it but don't love it. The production design (and production value) is incredible. The performances are uniformly excellent. The writing and directing is shaky, I think. The games are violent, but rarely sadistic, which the show...

Have you checked out Rrakkma, the githzerai/githyanki adventure WotC released digitally when Mordenkainen’s Tome of Foes came out? P sure you can still get it as a PDF on DMsGuild.

Hasbro never claimed there are currently 50 million D&D players worldwide. They claimed that an estimated 50 million people have played D&D since the game was created 50 years ago, which is obviously a very different claim. The audience for actual play D&D is enormous, which is self-evident to...

Without spoiling anything, I'll say that the tournament scoring included with Tsojcanth (while very fun) has very little to do with tactical decisions!

They fixed the map errors on DNDBeyond.

DoMM level 1 has been free on Roll20 for years.

I didn’t think he had a great answer at all to the “how can you receive a huge bonus when 20% of your employees were laid off” question.

They did, but at least the questions themselves were reasonably tough.

I probably take out the cleric. At this point, the BBEG is hoping to escape, and doesn't want the party pursuing, and REALLY doesn't want them pursuing with all 4 members.

Bard Rogue Warlock Paladin Fighter Ranger Wizard Artificer Cleric Sorcerer Druid Monk Barbarian Note: I don't actually dislike any of them. Subclass matters a lot for Rogue, Fighter, Monk, and Druid.

DNDBeyond does do this.

It's very unlikely that most groups would comprehensively explore the whole place. You're pretty much just trying to find the entrance to the lower level.

It seems like a very fun old-school tier 2 adventure. I have the old 1E version and this is largely an improvement on it. I also like the tournament scoring rules! A lot of combat and a lot of traps. It's a total dungeon crawl, but there's some cool environmental stuff and fun areas. The...

The adventurers meet the Lady of Brockendale Castle - will they survive the experience? Episode 6 of PodCast Party: To Slay a Dragon, presented by Cast Party and EN Publishing, is now on YouTube!

It's shocking how great Solasta would be if they would JUST hire a couple of good writers. Because they're nailing so many of the other elements. But I have no idea if they ever will address that problem. The Lost Valley DLC, incidentally, is actually much worse than the original campaign.

I would love to see the now-indy-again Harebrained Schemes (Shadowrun, Battletech) make a D&D game. I also would love to see a D&D CRPG that has nothing to do with the Baldur's Gate series.

My take: - While it's certainly plausible that Larian is walking away from D&D because of something stupid/greedy that WotC did, that's not necessarily true. Larian is a private company, and Vinke has a history of doing what he wants to do - and also, while profit is important to him, that's...

I agree with a lot of what's going on there, but there are some strained points: - WotC never claimed they "had 50M players". They said ~50M people had played D&D at some point since the game was created. - Critical Role has serious problems and is in decline, but I actually don't think that...
