I posted a little above on this. You ask several questions there, I don't know if I have easy answers for all of them, but I'll attempt to answer them as I can. As I mentioned above, I don't recall any fairytales where they presented Goblins (or Ogres or Trolls) with Children off the top of...

Which part of Goblins were NOT people did you not understand. What part of Grimms Fairytales, The Fairybooks, and Bullfinch's did you NOT understand...or was it NOT PART of your education to even read those (elementary for Grimms, HS for Bullfinch's)? This is NOT a mystery. Someone...

OKAAAAAYYY,.,.... Just because you didn't stumble or read what others read DOES NOT mean it doesn't exist. IT IS NOT NONSENSE. I expect that you are just making an exclamation instead of a personal insult...though YOU ARE SKIRTING VERY CLOSE TO IT. Your way is not the ONLY WAY and your...

Depends on the author...but Just like Undead don't really need food, other things don't either for some. Others would have it that they do need food (afterall, in this one they do have children which implies other earthly concerns, and though not appropriate for these forums, there is also...

Just because you do not UNDERSTAND the forces of Chaos and how it could be perceived, does not mean there was no reason. Are you trying to toss a personal insult or slander at someone?? The original makers of D&D? The original writers of the Module?? I actually agree, with MODERN DAY...

Sorry, it's been awhile, I've been busy. Creatures of Chaos. It's actually more of an older idea, inspired by things that D&D originally were inspired from. LotR was just one inspiration, but Cthulu,, Moorcock, and others also had an equally heavy inspiration (and threatened lawsuits as...

There were things that he did that I may not agree with, but it is easy to be derogatory to someone when they are dead. Far too easy at times. He did nothing that I am so irate about that I would besmirch his name about it now (though there may be an individual or two out there that I MIGHT be...

And of course, if you run a business, sometimes you shop around to see which court may be the most favorable to your situation and case, and then, if able, try to file there. For example, a certain individual in the News seems to love filing cases that are under the jurisdiction of the 11th...

I'd imagine you are wrong about that. HOWEVER, those who fail to see the other point of view and insist that they are the ONLY correct view, probably misunderstand ONE portion of WHY the protagonist of the movie are actually the bad guys. That said, the main theme, that of the dangers of...

Different things are liked by different people. Do you also dislike Alien and Aliens for certain premises? Do you sympathize with the Aliens instead of the Humans in those movies?

Actually I said Fire Ants would be the GOOD GUYS compared to what Orcs would be like. How do you know that Fire Ants are not Sentient...there are studies that indicate ants actually ARE sentient. In fact, Fire Ants would be PREFERABLE to what Orcs would have been considered as originally at...

????? Okay. You do you. I'm not so sure you speak for the everyone who played back then though. PS Edit: I may add, Cthulu was less than 50 years old at that point I believe...and LotR was less than 30...so I'm not so sure your hundreds of years is accurate...but those two groups (along...

Probably will be on US store shelves starting sometime around September 10th I imagine.

I did not read Phandelver and below...so maybe you could enlighten me. Why is LmoP high tier, DoSWI, and DoIP Mid Tier, but Phandelver and Below rated Bottom Tier? Isn't Phandelver and below just a rewrite of the other three tossed in to be one giant module/adventure?

None of the adventures are really horror (not even Ravenloft). It's HOW the monsters were perceived though. They are seen more as you may see evil army ants or evil fire ants than a bunch of cuddly cut puppies with a rabid mother. As someone else pointed out in the thread previously, these...

I've seen this. This is why I put down my Alien reference (pretty far back in the thread) where some prefer (and this is more of the original style of play) to simply have the horrific creature or monster (like in the movie alien) that is going to kill and hunt...no real reason known at...

You may have never dealt with fire ants. (And Fireants aren't even EVIL! At least not like how Orcs of old were. Fireants may actually eat and kill babies [has happened, rare, but happens], but that's not due to them simply being evil. Half Orcs were NOT products of loving homes...

I like the one where I get the Darts from my dart board...and I kill someone with them. Far easier to kill them with those darts I specialized in than that big honkin sword you have!!! "Why is that?" Better be careful or you'll get a dart through the eye...you will!!!

This is true, and kind of made me think of something. Some people want their horror movies to be like the original Alien, where you have this horrific creature that has no real reason or explanation, but it's going to hunt you down and kill you. I'ts the horror of the monster that comes after...

It depends on how you see them. If you see them how they were originally and found in certain fairy tales from previously (little demon monsters spawned from the minds of evil..and truly and unredeemably evil themselves...sort of like other monsters and animals, but these had no sense of good...
