Took 4 years before they did the collected box set for the 2014 versions.

Thank you, this is what I meant. I didn't mean to confuse or cast aspersions on anyone!

Clearly the murderer is the owner of the winning (read: only surviving) goose. But can the PCs PROVE the case in a court of Shirelaw? They'll need to gather the evidence or else the Defense will yell "OBJECTION!"

Oo, looks like a TTRPG way of playing the upcoming LotR Shire Animal-Crossing-like/farming sim video game. <3

Fairies are a small player species in 5e. Small size vs tiny size really comes down to gameplay reasons of an assumed combat square and standard weapon size – the same reason that Goliaths and Orcs etc aren't large by default but have "oversized" species features to let them emulate large size...

That's the fundamental challenge WotC have to negotiate around. They seem to have come down upon the side of "the God is divine and unfightable unless they invest so much of their energies into a ritual that they lose their divinity temporarily." I think one of the Xeno games explores fighting...

My apologies, I didn't mean to imply you were making a straw argument or lying or being deceptive, just that your pretenses about the nature of set theory in social sciences seems to be incorrect, and we can't readily engage with it. Levi-Strauss' objectivism has long since been rejected by...

Bloomburrow. Also, Aasimar and Tieflings can be small in the 2024 PHB.

Then you're not going to get many answers, because your question seems to be built on false pretenses that others aren't really able to engage with you on. You might as well unask the question. Mu.

No, that would be tyranny of the majority, and something social democracies try to balance with protections for minorities. But this isn't a government, it's a game system, and one that is trying to sell as many copies and convert as many prospective buyers as possible into enfranchised players...

This is a schröedinger's box issue. We can't determine who is in the set or who is not in the set without understanding the unofficial boundaries to entry into the set. And once you observe it, you're influencing it.

Yes, but the HOW is the rub here: the mechanism for allowing people within a set is subjective. They may objectively be in the set or out of the set. But getting into the set can be blocked by making them feel like they can't be in the set, because enough people in the set are going to make...

Charlaquin answered this with a more eloquent question than I would have. I think usually there's a third option that isn't being considered – the old equality/equity/justice parable about the ball game and the box to see over the picket fence etc. You'd need to do something if you want to...

The hypothetical white room scenario isn't a meaningful issue. Rituals are a utility power resource that Wizards have and Sorcerers essentially don't have because of their tighter spell choices, both in their spell list and their prepared spells. Sorcerers still don't have the versatility of...

This. Combine that with that Science is not about one person knowing "facts" but rather the difficult and time-consuming process of peer review and debate in the search of truth, throwing out knowledge that doesn't hold up under water, and recognising false dichotomies we've set up due to our...

A Kender.

Here's hoping that success will lead to a Switch Port, or at least a Switch 2 Port. As it stands it's the only BG game I haven't played, and yet the one I want to play the most.

I love the Xeno series games, and killing god is a baked in from the very first title in 1998. :) It's a good reference.

Low Magic in fantasy is that magic is rare and powerful and mysterious, not that the users of it aren't powerful.

Clearly, Bardic Magic is not Science. Arthur C. Clarke was generalizing magic as a Wizard or Artificer approaches it. That's Intelligence Casters. Charisma Casters don't need to learn physics problems. They're self-taught. Some intelligence is needed, but the Charisma also reflects their...
