    D&D 5E (2024) Wizards of the Coast Backtracks on D&D Beyond and 2014 Content

    You genuinely believe that most of the things WoTC does are innocent mistakes "or unforced errors"?

    D&D General What is the right amount of Classes for Dungeons and Dragons?

    As long as they can introduce classes that offer new play options, I don't see why there should be a limit. However, when the classes start overlapping each other and start feeling the same mechanically with just a splash of flavor, that's when they should stop, imo.

    D&D 5E (2024) Wizards of the Coast Backtracks on D&D Beyond and 2014 Content

    Late to the thread, but I've seen a number of comments that amount to: "They listen to the customer and reversed course, so what's the problem". The fact that they reversed course is a good thing, but that's a really low bar to judge them by. What people should be asking is WHY does WoTC do...

    Request: Sub-Forum for WOTC/Hasbro Post

    The solution is for WoTC to stop engaging in the behaviors/making the decisions that it has been doing. But since that's not going to happen...

    It may just be a "ghost job".

    Trailer Star Trek: Section 31 | Teaser Trailer | Paramount+

    Ugh... I had high hopes for Section 31, but I get a DISCO vibe from the trailer. There area lot of good stories you can tell with the "original" section 31, it didn't need to be reimagined for modern audiences.

    D&D 5E (2024) Motley Fool Prediction: New Dungeons & Dragons Edition Won't Help Hasbro Much

    I don't think the books are a good indicator. The true test is if WoTC can cash in on it's plans to push D&D to virtual spaces, subscriptions, microtransactions, licensing, etc.

    Do you need or prefer physical dice when playing?

    I use the digital dice available on whichever VTT I happen to be using. I haven't used physical dice since the start of COVID.

    D&D General Gen X D&D

    I was 12 or 13 in 1979 when I first started playing 1E, so I guess it depends on when you were born between 1965 and 1980.

    D&D 5E (2024) So IS it a new edition?

    If there are new core books, IMO, it's a new edition.

    D&D General Who shouldn't play D&D

    No one should play D&D. But, everyone should play Pathfinder. ;) :)

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Player's Handbook Video Redactions & Takedowns

    With the exception of the YT channel showing the entire book, I thought that there were "fair use" laws that allowed people to show parts of copywritten material as long as full credit was given? In any case, as soon as the book is released, someone is likely to .pdf the whole thing and make it...

    D&D General A History of Violence: Killing in D&D

    Except on days when the dice gods frown upon you, and you fail your stealth, diplomacy, intimidation and athletics roles. ;)

    D&D General A History of Violence: Killing in D&D

    D&D is a war game at it's core. I suspect it wouldn't be as popular if it wasn't.
