This is odd. The book is definitely more mechanistic and is intent on spelling out everything. Personally, I don't like all the actions and conditions. It's awkward phrasing.

Mindy would be very happy in my daughter's game. She runs no-death games, especially for players who stress over possible character death. Her games aren't easy however, as there can be plenty of unpleasant consequences, just no character death. D&D can absolutely be for Mindy!

I'd probably buy your game. Not a total heartbreaker. 😁

Sometimes D&D might not be the game for someone. A player at my table pretty much quit rpgs altogether because he doesn't really like D&D. Being exposed to other games has him excited for the hobby. This is the only reason I can think of. You might like other systems better due to genre or...

If panic occurs, mistakes are made. Yes, it happens. And like I said, a company should make a genuine apology and go at least a little bit above and beyond to rectify their error and regain customer trust. Staying calm in a crisis is part of being in the business world, right there in 1st year...

Competently run companies do not panic. A good company makes sincere apologies for being in error(which WotC did) and then go above and beyond to make up for the mistake (which WotC did not.) Most customers/clients are forgiving of errors if a company does at least a little more than an apology.

It's a new edition. Most rpgs have new additions while keeping the core mechanics the same. D&D is one of the ver very few games that will do complete overhauls.

We are planning on using it for Level Up. I'm pretty excited for this one Love the vibe.

Valley of Flowers is a dense little book. Very weird and whimsical. Bee knights! And you roll every day to see what the sun is doing. Sometimes it can't bother to rise, or it's chuckling to itself, or creeping slowly across the sky with sudden quick bursts. Full of lots of adventure sites...

I'm really excited for your City of Arches. It looks so cool and fun. And very generous preview packet. 💜

I won't be buying the book but I do really like the art. I love the alt cover for player's book, so a little regret there. I do agree that there may be too much art. WotC is bragging about a larger player's book, but larger font and way more art makes me wonder if there is actually more content...

You Tubers getting preview copies to show to their followers is very common. It is so common, most you tubers cannot preview them all, so usually choose ones they are excited about. Many of these copies have not yet released or just released. Flipping through the pages showing off the art and...

We're doing a wide variety of adventures with Shadowdark. Not everything has to be dungeon crawling. The torch timer is not essential to play! And we roleplay a lot with interesting characters. With careful play, and not fighting everything in sight, it's not as lethal as its reputation either.

No, this is not the one.

I saw the @SlyFlourish video. He did not show the entire book, not even close. It was an excellent, balanced review. It is exactly the type of video, WotC should be pleased with. @SlyFlourish did nothing wrong. Absolutely no way to predict WotC's bizarre reaction, especially considering 3000...

Every, I mean every company or independent author of a rpg book, who sends a promotional copy of their product to a you tuber, wants to see their product showcased. That's the point. Build up hype and hopefully get some positive vibes going. Why would any YouTuber assume WotC is different? The...

I loved the old Reincarnate spell too! Over the years it has become more and more bland. It isn't suppose to be Resurrection with a Phb species switch. Like you said, a big gamble, and if you did come back as an eagle or a bugbear, it was fun.

I'm very intrigued by Ghostfire's revamping of their Grimhollow. It's being updated to be in line with 2024 but I'd use it with 2014 or Level Up. The character creation looks really really good so far, as well as the Monster Hunter class.

Yep, really enjoyed this one. Really good advice.

I know.. But since there's arguing here, there'll be arguing at the table. Hope I'm just being pessimistic! 🙄
