Should, would, could. That's nice thought. But in reality, if you can't find group to play for free and don't have money to pay, you find another hobby you can afford. Sure, i would like to go skiing in Zermatt every year, but if i can't afford it, i'll go to Madonna di Campiglio or just stay at...

Are people really paying 20$ per session to play d&d with strangers online? I mean, that's not cheap. 40 sessions totals to 800 bucks for 160h of gameplay. I guess some people really really love to play.

Tiny hut is ok as is. Maybe instead of boring force field it creates tiny cottage in local style, but it's tripped with alarm and arcane lock. Rope trick is meh spell. Useful for short rests in inconvenient places, but it costs you spell slot. At lower levels, that is not small price to pay...

Same. Whole point of playing ttrpgs, for me at least, is doing something fun with friends. Paying to play with bunch of strangers doesn't really has any appeal to me. One or two friends of a friend i already play with is cool, but whole group that are strangers to each other, not my cup of tea...

Do we discuss your requirements or do we post ours? From what you wrote, it's not unreasonable. IDK how rates are going for pay to play games, so can't comment on that one. But other things, like high attendence percentage and playing weekend is spot on. For games that go into high levels...

Our primary DM- 6 weeks of business trips. He returned, one of the players went to big industry expo. I'm 1 week every month in another country for next 8-12 months. Add to that half of us have kindergarden age kids and it's flue sesson ( in general, kindergardens are Papa Nurgle's playground)...

Yep, DMG 2014, P37. Tiers of play. T1 Local heroes (1-4), T2 Heroes of the realm (5-10), T3 Masters of the realm (11-15), T4 Masters of the world (16-20).

It depends what you consider high levels. Some people consider tier 3 high levels. Some tier 4. Personally, i would put high levels at teens. So 13 and up, mid tier 3. Even if you take level 11 with standard 3-4 sessions for level, that's still 30-40 sessions, or for most groups i know, around...

I agree, it's not systems fault. But it's one of the reasons high level play is less common in typical 1-20 campaigns. They fizzle out due to real world stuff before they hit high levels. Also, if table isn't using milestone leveling but regular xp progression, every session that doesn't involve...

Every 3-4 sessions is 57-74 sessions. Like you said, year to year and a half of weekly sessions. But IRL, sessions are skipped cause number of real life reasons ( work, family, sickness, school obligations, holidays etc). In short, life happenes. Also, sometimes sessions don't move things...

I did it once and never will again. At that point, you may as well just homebrew monster stat block and just use official fluff. On the other hand, i did see (and did myself) decent amount of powering up lower level monsters for higher level play. Low to mid levels are covered with abundance of...

Yes, you can do what ever you want, only limit is your imagination. Sure, i can make CR5 Balor and CR20 human bandit. ( side note, slapping pc classes on monsters isn't advisable in 5e, since they are going for different rules for pcs and monsters, which makes sense, one is designed for long...

I was more inspired by the setting itself. I had old 3e GoT ( no, won't run 3.x ever again), Jamie was lvl 15, Ned was 9, plus some levels of Noble on both of them ( it had special subsystem that noble class used). Sandor was F10/Rog3 and Gregor was F18/Barb2. But sure, i agree, 5e doesn't do...

I did just that. I had idea of GoT inspired campaign that would start PCs at level 10 and go to levels 15-17. When i say GoT inspired - it meant humanoids only in the world, no undead, monstrosities, abberations, outsiders or even dragons. Basically only medium sized human or human like races (...

Sorry, you misunderstood my point which was that PC can live like rock stars / action heroes and still don't worry about living expenses. My position on this topic was from the start that wealth doesn't matter per se past first few levels. After that, it matters only as much as players are...

Active gamer, more or less ( we manage 25-35 sessions per year). With limited time to play, i play or run 2 systems. D&D 5e and nWoD ( which i bought some 15 years ago in my early 20s and splurged monthly pay on books). All significant ttrpg purchases any of us in my group made in our early to...

Sad to hear that, but if it's worth anything, i feel you. My group had period like that, one year we played 11 session total. We would manage 2-3 in a row, then month or two nothing, then session or two in a row, then month or two nothing, with 3 and a half month brake from july to mid september...

Or they can live it like rock stars and have someone else foot the bill. From one of my games. Pc-s were around level 12-13. We squashed rebellion led by one of the nobles (by killing said noble and his entire bloodline), killed elemental prince that almost destroyed city harbor, squashed...

Not in 5e. Let's see what we have. Prestidigitation - dry cleaner, food chiller/warmer/flavorer ; cantrip Unseen servant - magical house maid/ cook/ server; 1st level ritual (no slots needed) Tiny hut - creates dry, comfortable, mostly spell proof, burglar/assasisn proof shelter; 3rd leve...

It came to Netflix in Croatia last year and i remember it being in top 10 for a few weeks. Watched it again when it came on netflix, still good fun movie on the second watching.
