Well, that reply was a tad arrogant. Yes, I know about the internet. The options online that I've found aren't helpful. I struck gold once, but since then I haven't found enough players available on the days or times I have available, or interested in trying anything other than D&D.

What the RPG hobby needs now is love , sweet love. :p. Seriously, it needs a better way to coordinate games and connect people.

Duergar. Two mini-bosses. Near TPK.

1. Tier T1-T4 2. World - A two digit code such as "FR" for Forgotten Realms 3. Location - A two digit code for location within world such as BG for Baldur's Gate 4. Sequential 3 digit number Not part of the code, but important IMO - In addition to the code, I would make the sequence of the...

It really isn't hard to politely disagree. But the anonymity of the internet allows people to be jerks. On this site, it seems to mostly take the form of arrogance and condescension directed at the person who is "wrong".

But see, you twisted what I said. Polite criticism is not the same as moaning. Nor did I say that I thought my view was universal. This is a good example of how fan boys think, and a good example of a strawman.... However, if enough customers ask for something, it's usually a good idea to at...

I think a lot of this arrogance is fed by the fan boys over the past 20 years. For some reason, in their minds, any decision the developer makes is the right one, as if they are infallible gods. And even polite constructive criticism or disagreement is met with flaming and venom.

Real life happens, even when you're in the middle of a game. Not being able to save when you want is a deal breaker for me. And if you're playing a single player game with no leaderboard or external rating system what is the problem with saving and reloading?

I prefer my worlds/setting to be fairly mundane and "normal" from the perspective of the "common" folk. Introduction to the fantastical occurs as the characters level up. That is, I think the fantastical should be somewhat rare, something to work for and achieve. If everyone and their uncle...

One of my per peeves is when random encounters don't make sense. Years ago, the DM in my group rolled up a Yeti as a random encounter during a desert adventure...

In the case where the outcome is inevitable, I will say "you finished them off", or at least reduce the monsters hp so that the fight is much shorter. However, I try to only provide meaningful encounters that advance, or are at least are related to the objective.

I started D&D back in the day with one shot modules and it became my preferred format. Modern adventures can drag on too long, but were the only option available (other than making your own) So, yes, a short campaign is something I'd like to see more of.

Like many others have said, taking a break is a good way to avoid burnout, but I would also add allow others to GM for a while. Doing so will give them an appreciation for how demanding GMing can be.

Oh, you mean this? I had no idea until I Googled it. :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amber_Diceless_Roleplaying_Game

For D&D to have less dominance in the industry. Further quality of life updates to VTT's, making them easier to run and more accessible. I already have a set of amber dice.

So, what does the under 25 demographic want from from D&D?

Renew!

troglodytes. fireball. burnt fish smell.

Sure. There are plenty of people who don't have the time, motivation, or creativity/inspiration to do it themselves, even with the assistance of AI.

How is using AI to reduce costs a "herald of doom"? Reducing costs would be beneficial to WoTC and D&D.
