    The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

    The "largest bundle" is $25. For 28 items. A lot of those products cost more than that by themselves. You can have them for less than $1 each. But please tell us more about your woes and the greediness of a corporation trying to get you to donate more for charity! :rolleyes:

    D&D 5E (2024) More People Test One D&D Origins Playtest Than D&D Next

    Isn't there more people playing D&D now than before? That just makes sense. So celebrate every victory, no matter how small or meaningful, eh? That's cool. (y)

    Pathfinder 2E Humble RPG Bundle: Pathfinder Second Edition Strength of Thousands by Paizo

    This actually works great for me. When I purchase their pdf bundles, I can get the full-price discount when I buy it on Fantasy Grounds. Its even better when it goes on sale! So last time, I got the Starfinder bundle, which included the entire adventure path for Attck of the Swarm. I was able...

    D&D 5E (2024) Split the Players Handbook into two books: Lower Tiers and Upper Tiers

    Level-based games like D&D usually struggle with high-level play. At first glance, it seems enticing to players to reach the pinnacle of demigod or superhero status, with the promise of incredible challenges and rewards to enjoy. But the reality is that it just makes the game more complex to...

    Grognard view of One D&D?

    Oh, I see what you're saying. Still, the "greater community" isn't someone that I personally need to appease or cater to, unless I am running a business. I can assure you that, currently, I am not. 100% agreed. Maybe. I think the OSR movement might say otherwise. Nostalgia can be a powerful...

    Grognard view of One D&D?

    Find more friends (or new ones) to share your interests. You are allowed to have more friends, play more games, and meet with other groups. I don't let WotC determine my path anymore.

    Grognard view of One D&D?

    For anyone that needs to hear it (again, if they seen me post it elsewhere) : You can get on the bus to let someone else drive and hope that they take you where you want to go. But if you feel like you missed your stop, don't just sit there and get pulled away from your destination. Have the...

    D&D General Beginning a new campaign advice - foreshadowing and railroading

    If the story begins with the characters stranded on a mysterious island, then that is where the campaign should begin. Anything leading up to their situation is irrelevant unless it will have any significance or impact later in the campaign. For example, let's say you want them to run into...

    D&D 4E Have you ever run 4e using just Essentials?

    Regarding the big D&D announcement about the next version coming out: You can get on the bus, letting someone else drive and hope they take you where you want to go. But when you feel like you missed your stop, don't just sit there and get pulled away from your destination. Have the courage to...

    D&D General One Piece of Art IV (Races)- What D&D Art Inspired You to Love a Race (Lineage, Ancestry)

    Artist: Clyde Caldwell Title: The Worm Has Turned Race: Human (Class: Fighter/Warrior) Look at this picture and tell me again why playing a human (or a fighter) is "boring". Or better yet, tell her that. I think she may have some strong opinions on that subject.

    D&D 5E (2024) DM's no longer getting crits on PC's

    Thanks for clarifying. I'll need to update my jokes. Personally, I liked how 4e did it (like so many other things it did). You score maximum damage on your damage dice, and then rolled extra dice. Some items even had special crit effects or crit dice. At least I think that's how it works...

    D&D General One Piece of Art II (Monsters)- What D&D Art Inspired You to Love a Monster?

    Source: FR1 Waterdeep and the North Artist: Keith Parkinson Title: The Xanathar Guild I saw this image when I was still a young lad drawing dungeon maps and filling every room with monsters, traps, and treasures. That was game for me. But this suddenly made me realise that the worlds we...
