    D&D General WotC: 'Of Course We're Going To Do' Baldur's Gate 4

    They had a loss in 2022. Delayed Bg3 to be safe and went all in. MSN has an article backing up my point by Ted litchfield 8 months ago. It’s right there They were not a triple a studio prior to Bg3. In some ways Bg3 was a gamble. It was a unbelievable one but if they had blown it and delivered...

    Spoilers Alien: Earth Spoiler Thread

    It would be a wow moment if they faked the memories Wendy is smarter but also appears to have more courage and based on the sword combat ability. Curious if the others will get the super human reflexes as well

    What I don’t understand is why Wendy is so much more advanced than the rest ?

    Spoilers Alien: Earth Spoiler Thread

    Awesome first 2 episodes and we have 1 more monster reveal. I am curious if the other aliens will play a bigger part in the show. And I want more flashbacks on how the crew captured all the aliens plus there were several chest buster victims?

    Game world observer magazine in 2022- verge of bankruptcy. They had 2 choices scale back or go all in . They went all in

    D&D General WotC: 'Of Course We're Going To Do' Baldur's Gate 4

    That actually isn’t true so maybe you should do some homework Larian made money in 2022 but reported a loss. They needed the ip in order to turn themselves into a triple a studio. The loss is public info You are correct that wotc only got about 12% but that was 90 million with o money so...

    D&D General WotC: 'Of Course We're Going To Do' Baldur's Gate 4

    Nobody actually knows. There’s a chance bg4 could be better than larians next game But why/how I’m sorry but it’s 5e d&d I’m invested in solasta 2 mainly because it’s d&d rules and I’m not interested in the crunch of pathfinder . If they bring back some of the characters I’m invested Cd...

    D&D General WotC: 'Of Course We're Going To Do' Baldur's Gate 4

    Bg3 biggest selling points for me was The writing- the choices /the party members etc- this can be duplicated as it’s not a video game thing. This was reworked over and over and I think wotc came back and said no on lots The core 5e- this was d&d as close as you can get The combat of the...

    Whatever happened to the icon characters from older editions like Krusk the 1/2 orc etc. wonder why they went away from them

    Dungeons & Dragons Teams Up With New Holland For New Beer

    No problem with slot machines or beer or sugary cereal. On both most likely over a certain age to purchase. If I’m at the casino and I walk over to the vast slot machine area I will gladly use the one with a beholder over something else. Not going to negatively change the brand Same with...

    D&D 5E (2024) Heroes of the Borderlands

    Arguments for Keep Most part plug and play- I can add in motivations and change some monster's as I certainly don’t want my vampires next door to my dragons etc. Drive thru people come up with concepts that I wouldn’t have thought of and some maps have traps etc I wouldn’t have thought of. If...

    D&D 5E (2024) Heroes of the Borderlands

    Disagree but i understand For me I love the simplicity of it Keep-base Explore forest and caves return to base It works better than phandelver and other new starter set adventures . Phandelver although great is kind of a mess and not super easy to run as a new dm

    Canada Worldbuilding

    Not sure if you’re interested but there’s a skirmish game supplement for game called silver bayonet set in Canada. Even if your not into skirmish games the lore/monsters for Canada might be worth a look

    D&D 5E (2024) Heroes of the Borderlands

    I guess we can disagree-i enjoy the classics better but that’s me. I also enjoy the simple shadowdark adventures or drivetgroughrog adventures over for the most part giant books with crap plots like storm kings thunder that take a lot of work to run and a big price tag and honestly the payoff...

    D&D 5E (2024) Heroes of the Borderlands

    Sounds like all the companies need to hire 12 year olds as it’s way more fun than almost every new wotc etc adventure published in the last few years

    D&D 5E (2024) Heroes of the Borderlands

    What’s scary is this is still probably one of the best d&d adventures and the formula is very simple and yet none of the new writers can come close to it. 46 years!!!
