I've got nothing against them, but I've not come across anything in my browsing that has compelled me to buy or incorporate it. I'll admit, I've not been playing long enough to have exhausted the well of the base game's interest.

Teeeeeeeeechnically, they've said one thing:

I would certainly hope they're using some sort of data validation on these surveys. Even before this, there were going to be people who sent in data meant to disrupt the process, because, well, the internet. If folks review bomb this in the sense of just giving all Strongly Dislike, or even just...

I'm still waiting to see what this 2.0 version of the new license looks like. If the leak is accurate, and doesn't have any major unmentioned drawbacks, that's likely to restore my energy for participating in the playtest. If the playtest goes well, and I by and large like the changes they...

I'll kick it off, I guess. I've amassed a decent collection of free adventure downloads from DTRPG/DMs Guild/etc, but I've not incorporated any of them. The one exception, which is more or less one of the most recommended standalones on DMs Guild, has not sat well with me in running it, and I...

Speaking of:

At this point I feel like Linda Codega's next piece is more likely to drop first.

It's about the word, not the ethics. I think hypocrisy is the wrong word to use when you're specifically calling out morally adjacent, sure, but fundamentally distinct issues. All I'm saying is I understand how people could have different reactions to the two things you listed, not saying...

I don't think having different opinions on violence and sexism falls under the banner of hypocrisy.

This made me curious, so, from their discord by way of subreddit: Sam Reich: Head of Dropout Andrew Bridgman: Chief Social Strategist (? idk, I'm just going by googleable title here, but he speaks with authority on the discord a lot) OGL 1.0 OGL 1.1 Above quotes taken from here, where...

I've been in one conversation about it, outside of this forum, with two DM friends and one of my players. The most prolific DM I know made a short post on facebook. No one else I know involved in the hobby has mentioned it. I haven't even received any "Hey, do you know what's going on with...

Ah, okay, thank you. I was confused, the way some folks have been talking, it sounded like the new license was claiming ownership of the basic idea, but that was just coming from a conflation of the term VTT with VTT that specifically runs D&D. I do understand how having to fold in all the data...

I'm asking this from a sincere point of confusion. The only reason they'd go after alternate VTTs is if they included content that prior to OGL 1.1 was OGC, right? The issue is including something like a character builder that lets you choose Barbarian, and then auto-populates a sheet with the...

Just as anecdote, my consistent tables have totaled 19 different people. I tend to make/find tables out of friends, rather than strangers. Of them, 12, to my knowledge, have never played or expressed an interest in another system. Two of the remainder are excited about the Avatar game and helped...

The two 5e games I have going on are likely to continue that way for the foreseeable future, due to both fondness for characters/builds, and the difficulty I'd face in convincing some players to learn a new system. My third group is already constantly rotating systems, so we left 5e a while ago...

It's real fun. Sprinting by and distracting enemies, drawing focus away and clearing reactions, getting right up front with the most dangerous foe.

Like I said earlier, I fundamentally like both of these options, so it's nice to just sit back and relax on the final day of voting.

I definitely started the day I said I was gonna, and not today. Credit to Dungeon Scrawl | Old-School Maps in Minutes for the mapping software, which made this far more approachable to my mind. Sticking with McCoy's weekly theme, so we're starting off with Ancient, and dipping into Death for...
