The DM Guide was the only 2024 corebook I was considering buying. So far, the only positives that I have seen discussed elsewhere are 1. reorganization of topics 2. more examples. 3. more charts. The above items themselves alone are are not a reason for me to personally buy the book. And while...

Yes, I, generally, get bored as a player. For myself, it has little to do with combat and more with my getting enjoyment from my players having fun interacting with the setting and scenarios I set forth- especially, when they take things in directions I had not foreseen and we are riffing off...

Personally, I would prefer Tiny Hut and Rope Trick were removed from the game.

Magic is not a requirement for High Fantasy. Magic is, however, an element commonly found within it.

It is High Fantasy, The common definition of High Fantasy is that it is set in an alternate fictional world separate from out own world often with magic and magical creatures and/or unusual technology.

Personally, I don't think Rangers should have spells by default. However, if they do have, Windtalk is the only spell on the list would fit the spells I think they should have.

Yet, I have seen many non-Catholics get hit hard by several scenes in the Exorcist and some, like witnessed by @Bedrockgames , were from Asian countries and not Catholic or even Christian.

Agreed. a few of the people that I saw have strong reactions were from Asian countries. However, I also saw people jump or recoil at several scenes including a certain crucifix scene and when Regan's head turned all the way around.

I just learned that in the medical scenes they used some actual medical professionals.

These, recently, landed on my radar after watching a couple of YouTube videos covering the 100 best horror movies, the 100 highest rated letterboxd horror movies, and the 75 scariest horror movies,

I knew the movie, originaly, as Twinkle, Twinkle, "Killer" Kane. The fight scene stuck with me.

I came close to putting this on my list. My "aunt's" brother was cinematographer on this one. He passed away a year or two ago.

A very influential movie that inspired later slasher movies such as Hallowen. I think I saw it for the first time a year or two ago.

Another good suggestion. An excellent movie.

Two very good choices.

I disagree that The Exorcist is overrated having recently seen the reactions of some people watching it for the first time. They didn't faint or vomit, but they had strong reactions to several scenes that I could not help but place it in my top 10.

My Top 10 (I am not including some classic Universal movies written by my uncle which hold a sentimental place in my heart or a popular horror/comedy in which my "aunt's" brother was cinematographer). In no particular order: The Thing (1982) The Exorcist (1973) Alien (1979) A Nightmare on Elm...

I know that works for some players. I am not one of them.* *edit: It has not worked for me since my first year or so of playing Holmes Basic/AD&D 1e.

When I DM D&D (or any fantasy game with clerics/priests), I provide a small list of shared spells and then spell lists tailored to each of the campaign's deities. Been doing this since AD&D.

I don't know if I would call them "druid centric" in 1e. They didn't get druid spells until 8th level (and the number of druid spells were pretty limited). By the point they receive druid spells, they were close to name level (level 10 for levels) which was generally assumed to be the point...
