    D&D 5E (2014) The Next D&D Book is JOURNEYS THROUGH THE RADIANT CITADEL

    It is quite paradoxical but given the results you are right for me.

    This is a Forum where people express their ideas. There are different ideas.There are opposite ideas. There is not inconsistency in that. It is not respectful categorize it as ridiculous. Why are you LOLLING about that? Must we all say "OHHH WHAT A BEAUTIFUL NEW MANUAL" in chorus, so you are...

    D&D General How has D&D changed over the decades?

    Sir, I surrender but not to see my corpse spoiled. So: it is not BAD, it is simply uninspiring to me.

    Is there a way to stick one billion Like to a single post by a single person?

    Maybe yes, but still this aspiration has not to end in childish way of representing the real or fictional world. I do not argue about the subjects but to the color choices, the general tone. Don't know how to say... One thing is to be optimistic, the other is "all fairy and unicorns". I hope...

    Still you are right saying to wait and read the inside. But it would be naive to say that the illustration in a TRPG doesn't set the mood of the product.

    Actually, it could be the element that move the balance from pass to buy for me.

    Subscribe word by word. I'm just playing Candlekeep as player and find the adventures embarassing. We are more or less in the middle of the book and no one is able to remember the previous adventure. If I can frankly express myself I find that D&D content is starting to upset me.

    I like very much the non combat option way of writing adventures. But the illustrations make me think that the non combat is identified with "furry tiny pets". Can we find a more equilibrated position?

    I have draconian rules for myself: 1. do not spend money to go to a shop without buying 2. do not read a book for an entire afternoon without buying :p

    I don't have information to say they are talented or the opposite. Let me read the book and I can tell you my opinion. But the problem is that reading it without buying it is illegal, so I have to judge by what I read around the book. For now I see a cover that FOR ME it is childish and doesn't...

    D&D General How has D&D changed over the decades?

    Sir, it seems very clear to me that saying "D&D illustration make me think about My Little Pony" is not infantilize others who love it. It is a personal judgment. I find the illustration childish.

    Don't know if it is a bunch of random stuff. And don't know if the people hired are very talented one. Only thing has been said is that are all POC. Very laudable from an inclusivness point of view. But I'd still prefer to buy products written by talented writers (POC or not really don't care...

    Can you please illustrate me how I can express myself correctly by your standards while I'm saying that the art of D&D is progressively uninspiring to me, product after product and in particular in the last product released?

    D&D General How has D&D changed over the decades?

    Maybe you have occasional difficulties in contextualize what you are reading. We were talking about inspiring/uninspiring illustrations and how the illustrations are more and more uninspiring TO ME as time goes by. I also have written: Obviously I'll wait to know the content before deciding to...

    D&D General How has D&D changed over the decades?

    Hopelessly uninspiring to me. :cry: Obviously I'll wait to know the content before deciding to pass/buy. But starting from the cover it is a pass. Oversaturated fluo colors, furry blue cuddly creature, a fantasy version of a main street. No trace of antagonism, peril, exploration. It can ispire...
