    Spoilers Daredevil: Born Again (Spoilers)

    I would change her name to Tatiana Manslayer at that point :P

    House of Dragons vs. Rings of Power (and a touch of Wheel of Time)

    on the other hand, there is a LOT of quality tv out there nowadays, too much to spend a lot of time on lower quality shows. Now I will say for S1 WOT wasn't terrible, it was a fine popcorn show for me....until I saw the budget. Once I saw the budget it actually ruined some of my enjoyment...

    Spoilers Daredevil: Born Again (Spoilers)

    As a cameo I think it worked well for Matt. That was a time in his life where things were really good. The beginning of born again provides a good reason why it went back into the darkness (which I agree was the better approach for the show as a whole), but I did enjoy letting Matt get to enjoy...

    Mickey 17 | Official Trailer 2

    Saw it, to me it was very decidedly "meh". The premise is interesting, and they have an interesting message to tell, but I think the message itself overshadows everything else. they are so focused on the satire that they forget to tell a good story and the characters are pretty one note. It is...

    House of Dragons vs. Rings of Power (and a touch of Wheel of Time)

    That was my take with season 2. It was a major leap in quality from S1, that took the show from a "sigh, why am I watching this?" to "alright this is pretty decent". So if S3 continues that trend up in quality sign me up.

    Spoilers Daredevil: Born Again (Spoilers)

    From an earlier post, I do think Matt mentioned the Sokovia Accords were overturned...either in No Way Home, or in She Hulk (I think it was NWH). To this point, yeah its been such a long standing problem with the MCU at this point that you either just ignore it and move on, or you drop the MCU...

    D&D 5E (2024) Is a heavy armored monk feasible?

    Its like if you played a bard that was so anti-bard that they were no longer a bard, and went from "oh god its a bard" to "oh yeah its not a bard". That's probably why;)

    D&D 5E (2024) Is a heavy armored monk feasible?

    We did a poll a long while back and found a lot of DMS do give out plate by about 4th level, but yeah if your doing it at 1st you its basically the equivalent of giving 1 player a powerful magic item without giving the rest of the party anything, its going to have a significant impact.

    Worlds of Design: Take a Bow

    One thing that the OP touches on is the limitation of ammunition, which is a topic I actually see rarely discussed on medieval bows. Its an important point, no matter how good your archers are...they are a fairly limited resource as once the arrows fun out, they are just so guys in light armor...

    D&D General The Logistics of High Level Play. TSR to 5.5

    I think that's the issue with adulting though, there are many other priorities that take said dedication. The biggest thing I've noticed as my group has gotten older, its not that people have less time "per say", but there time becomes more regimented. Kids have school, then have after school...

    Comes in checks roster. "Hmm....no David Xanatos" leaves the roster :)

    Spoilers Daredevil: Born Again (Spoilers)

    But since this is Matt Murdock, of which catholic guilt is a core part of his character....yeah he is going to feel it.

    D&D 5E (2024) Is a heavy armored monk feasible?

    so assuming no house rules, just straight up. I would imagine this version of the monk would probably be a heavy strength over dex, and then heavy con over wisdom. A lot of the monk stuff covers your ability to use dex, so we could ignore that. BUT...your biggest issue is that your unarmed...

    Spoilers Daredevil: Born Again (Spoilers)

    That the system works, so he doesn't have to fix it by being daredevil. That is the obstacle that Matt faces this season...he wants to desperately believe that justice will be served him being a lawyer, rather than requiring the violence he has tried to give up. But considering the title of the...

    Spoilers Daredevil: Born Again (Spoilers)

    Yep, Matt just had to beat the burden of reasonable doubt, and in this case he was able to put in that doubt with this question. I mean....isn't it really strange that this guy who does nothing but wander around saving people and helping cops would just kill one? The answer....yeah seems pretty...

    Hasbro CEO Chris Cocks Is Talking About AI in D&D Again

    I think it depends on what you are going for. So I used Chatgpt in my adventure on monday. I was throwing a big gala, and so I prompted ChatGPT to get the following: 1) Some magic items that would be good for the group to start the adventure 2) Various party activities 3) 20 different guests...

    D&D General What Should Magic Be Able To Do, From a Gameplay Design Standpoint?

    I think this topic should focus around "Wizards in Downtime". aka time and spell slot availability is not a concern for a wizard. Assume that anything that can be spammed in the long term will be spammed. A few areas of focus: 1) Divinations: Casting a divination about a subject is fine, but...
