You can obviously create whatever system your want but this race would never survive and likely never even evolve as there is not enough generic diversity advantage here to offset how much of a challenge it would be to find that many mates. Furthermore you make it even more unlikely as you...

My point is that they DID say different in their initial press release. I do not really care what they told the Kickstarters directly. I am interested in what they released to everyone.

I wish people would stop saying this it is not accurate. The ORIGINAL release by Green Ronin in January 2018 stated a full release date of Gencon 2018. They have since changed the press release but retconning their press release does not make it fact. They stated that a limited run of hardcovers...

My GUESS and this is purely a GUESS is that you will be disappointed if for no other reason than 99% of products like this are a sourcebook maybe one or two followup books and that is it. The numbers game just says you are not going to get what you want no matter how cool it would be.

So did people receive their rewards? It is less than a week from May so by my book we are definitely no longer in "early 2019" and everything on Green Ronin still says "Coming Soon". I know everyone talks about how long game design takes, how people estimate time bad, etc etc. But this is not...

Any amount of DPS is fine, a decent DM should always balance the adventures to match the capabilities of the party.

Everything can be sneak attacked because sneak attack is a crucial part of a rogues viability in combat.

I am going to assume that Critical Role has been a vast majority of the viewership at Geek and Sundry for quite a while. Critical Role has 50k plus viewers every week, every other G&S item on twitch seems to be lucky to break 5k any time I take a look. Also assume that by the same measure a vast...

Are we talking real cultures or are we talking about game cultures that have been ignored for a long time? Real culture could mean Indian Subcontinent culture, Chinese Culture, South East, Pacific Islander culture (which could really fit into a ship and Sailing book).

Happy New Year everyone

Rope Trick? DO you really want to make characters like Warlocks who are totally based around short rest abilities way overpowered compared to their fellows?

Stop being a troll. First off no player KNOWS a place is safe EVER. You do not even know the current encounter is over until the DM tells you. So no fireball is not a heal. Question though, how guaranteed safe is Rope Trick? If a powerful enough mage sees you enter the Rope Trick could he not...

First, they faced him with little prep and fought him to a near standstill, this is not a good sign for the big bad unless you have a reason to further buff him without it looking like meta prepping. This leads to my second thought. Second, prep the town and be ready for the attack. Divination...

Is it balancing the game to have non-combat interactions with dice rolls that due to their min-maxed character design in effect punishes them? That is like saying you cannot have a villain learn. Lets say a party through intentional choice builds a total melee monster party. Everyone swings a...

Well to be honest I disagree with you as well. To me a ROLE PLAYING GAME is playing a role, it is pretending to be what you are not obviously. If all you are doing is walking from one combat to another combat with nothing of substance then you might as well play heroclicks, warhammer fantasy...

Thank you, that is an excellent way to look at it.

Two thoughts. First, it takes a group of players willing to be very role play focused. Lots of horror elements will require things happening to people and places that the players and through them their characters care about. Second, I think Gothic horror, along the lines of Ravensloft works...

Do you do it? Assuming a player comes along and his character is 100% by the rules, no Unearthed Arcana or any other playtest material, will you still shoot down a character design because you feel it is broken? I am not sure if I would straight out say no. My first thought is that if they...

Do you feel that the 65/35 balance is enough to keep everyone from designing pure combat monsters that can barely speak full sentences?

So you failed, you allowed them to evade encounters necessary to gain the XP to handle the final threat. Consider this a learning experience and in the future make sure that players have to be intentionally stupid and dense to get in this situation again and make sure that clever solutions...
