Except that is not what he said. Nice try though. What he said was that he wouldn't want to play with you, that is a personal preference, nothing about you being a bad DM. For example, I don't see Tom Hanks movies (generally) because I they don't match what I want out of a movie. It doesn't...

It won't be though. There will be things like SCAG, etc. in the mean time. Also there will be tons of 3PP books. Just because you don't use 3PP books/homebrew, doesn't mean that most tables are like you. Says you. Their market research says differently, otherwise they wouldn't be pursuing...

Why would it it take more for them to buy? If they are already playing 5E, why wouldn't they jump all over it? From a business standpoint it makes more sense to wait to release the product till there is a critical mass of people clamorous for it, the product is ready for release and it makes...

I am looking forward to the mechanical expansion next year and I feel that it is coming at an appropriate time. A few comments about your post. 1. How do you have a book about races? Especially a crunch one (I could be interested in a lore book but that is different). It seems like a book...

1 hour. Wow. I don't think that I have had a combat go longer than 30 minutes in 5E besides when we had to defend a town against an invading force where we fought at the gate for 20ish minutes and then fought the general of the opposing army and his bodyguards for another 20 minutes and that...

I find it interesting that the some people say that they don't allow 3PP and then say negative things about the DMsguild but they don't mention the large 3PP like Kobold Press, Green Ronin, Sasquatch, Frog God or En5ider. Do do people just not look at those or are they not aware of them? Is...

Now I know the problem, you are stuck in 2005. Why do you keep bringing up 3E? Maybe it is time to join us in 2016 and look at the work being done by the large 3P publishers. Go and check out Kobold Press, Green Ronin, Frog God Games, Sasquatch, etc. Judging any industry on your opinion of...

While I would agree with the core 3, once you move beyond that they aren't near as rigorously play-tested. You don't know that they are better balanced, you assume it, and I hopefully you know the consequences of assuming?

What? This post tells me that you know nothing about the big 3rd Party publishers. Holy Crap. You do realize that many of the the large 3rd party publishers do play test their stuff right (in fact a member of my group is a play tester for one of them)? Also you do realize that many of them...

Bladesinger? Great AC and a full caster.

Can't the same thing be said about a WoTC product?

Kobold Press has a current Kickstarter that looks awesome (I backed it). It is a book on Demon Cults and Secret Societies. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/350683997/demon-cults-and-secret-societies-5th-edition-and-p Also Nord Games previously had a Kickstarter that is over but you can...

I agree with this. I really wanted a fighter/mage built off the Paladin chasis with some cantrips thrown in. 2 attacks, up to 5th level spells (and all wizard spells available), etc. Honestly, that is what the Bladesinger probably should have, well at least in my opinion (I never really...

Yep, 3E lasted for about 3 years. Then we got 3.5E. New PHB, new DMG, new MM, etc. Spells got massively overhauled, many classes saw some change, some feats (many?) changed, monsters changed, DR changed, etc. Now 3.5 lasted for a while if you consider Pathfinder as part of it (as Morrus...

Nope. They are still putting out splats or expansions just much more slowly. Sword Coast Adventures Guide and now VGtM. They just aren't putting out what you want and you are complaining about it. Own it. You are upset because they aren't doing what you want, it has nothing to do with...

Well 5E isn't done yet, so your point doesn't really make sense, of course it is only a 2 year run so far. Also the 8 years you cite really included "2" editions, 3 and 3.5. Third edition really only last 3 years before they had to reboot it. Then 3.5 lasted for about 5, and then 4th edition...

I think that both of you are getting caught up on the same thing. 3E (and it's "business plan") was a short term success. Releasing splats increases short term profits but it erodes long-term profits as it quickens the decline of the edition and eventually leads to a new addition (which...

Why is it foolish for females to have appropriate armor?
