So, it's more like Cocks being dangled in front of Sachs as part of a basic corporate affair? That makes a little more sense. I had thought AI might be used in a manner similar to a supermarket using self-check out at a supermarket. Instead of needing a handful of cashiers, you only need one...

That sounds dire. How painful do you expect things to get if Sachs follow Cocks into D&D? With as much as was spent to purchase DDB, I imagine that Hasbro hopes to get a return on investment. Does Goldman Sachs having a working relationship with WotC or Hasbro?

I think it's natural for some portion of the D&D audience to be uncomfortable with Cocks and Sachs working together. According to AI: "A cost curve is a graph that shows the relationship between the total quantity produced and the costs of production. Cost curves are important for firms to...

A bit of Déjà Vu with this thread. Post in thread 'RPG Evolution: Hasbro's AI Plans' RPG Evolution: Hasbro's AI Plans Do you think the majority of the D&D audience has an appetite for more AI and Cocks?

Get as many people as you can on DDB and a VTT; have some manner of TOS (like Facebook has) that says the platform owner owns rights to your created content; train the AI on crowdsourced content... Fewer writers and content designers needed. You'd just need a project overseer and maybe an...

I can't speak for anyone else, but I do get a little upset at clothing designers. For quite a few years, it seems to be the case that many companies no longer make men's jeans that reasonably accommodate testicles. It's an odd design choice.

Depends upon which one of my home campaigns, but... Sorta... In one of the settings I run, that world's equivalent to elves is the "Before" race, but they are also still around. Part of the setting involves a transition period from a previous mythic (for a lack of better words) to the current...

Does the d1000 really have equal odds of rolling any of the numbers?

Much better

+1 Also, it shouldn't take a 20-30 minute video to compare and contrast. Hit the highlights and don't bury the lead.

If an ally uses a spell or ability to give a bonus to only ranged attacks... For me personally, having it separated out a little bit more is easier to work with in play. I've also found that, when handing index cards to new players, have the different options broken into different lines helps...

For me, I wouldn't like that way. There are times when a game element modifies a particular type of attack (melee or ranged) or a particular weapon. IMO, being able to more-quickly parse out which numbers change and which numbers don't and being able to do that from a cursory glance is more...

While I'm not necessarily a fan of adding more Elemental sub-species (because 5e24 already has a lot,) I think there may be a way to lean Dwarves into the WoTC vision in a different way: start from the perspective of Mag8c the Gathering's mana colors. •Dwarves tend to be associated with...

Being that I don't currently subscribe and (as of the time of this post) never have, I wouldn't say that I'm concerned about it. I do have real concerns though. Should I DM you the list of things that I find concerning in the world?

I like it. I have my fair share of 4E criticisms, but one thing that the edition did well was present crunch in a clear and concise manner. With what you've done, you could fit most creatures on an index card.

I didn't say it was "bad." (I also don't necessarily think capitalism is bad, but "capitalism" as some contemporary people use the word may be.) I was commenting on how it could be monetized. In such a hypothetical structure, you could choose what abilities you have in a game by participating...

(The following dramatization is based on an assumption that a large corporation wants to make more money.) Don't underestimate the power of FOMO. A team could also mix it with a little bit of guilt, crib some notes from televangelists, and BOOM Sales! "Hey, everybody! This Faux Jangles, and...

I said in a thread (a couple months ago) that I could see them having a chance to get "special" minis. So, something like... Sure, everybody gets the basic red dragon mini. But were you one of the lucky ones to get Rotfeutanixn the Night Fire? Did you get the Höllexeidex mini from...

That example does offer some psuedo-plausible-ish bread crumbs though. First, they are both highly trained combatants going against what are presented as rank-and-file conscripts. (Strong conscripts, but still not named or otherwise noteworthy foes) Second, they take advantage of the chaos of...

Well, being that "failing" the adventure means Tiamat begins her tyrannical rule over the world, I imagine that is undesirable for anyone serving someone else.
