    The Fourteenth Doctor is Here! | BBC Children in Need 2023 | Doctor Who

    I believe in the films are referenced in one episode of the new Doctor Who. So they are part of the continuity in a way.

    What Is Your Favorite Campaign Setting?

    Favourite campaign setting is the "Real World" but with something different (be it Magic, Vampires, Mythos creatures, Magical Martial Arts or whatever) doesn't really matter what. 2nd favourite - A sci-fi setting that doesn't include space magic as a major theme. Fantasy D&D wise - Birthright...

    Are Superhero films dying?

    Is this really a superhero movie problem or a more general movie problem? Loads of people invested in improving home entertainment systems during the lockdowns. I also wonder how much Disney+ hampers Marvel doing so well at the cinema? If you moderate are a Marvel fan, there is a reasonable...

    D&D General Worldbuilding Assumptions: The Nature of Gods

    There seems a number of issues with that... a) It's a awful lot of work to test your theory, and even if you could get all your ducks in a row, persuade or force one of these gods into a Zone of Truth, they answer the question, then carry out further divination tests, it would only tell you for...

    D&D General When do you overrule RAW?

    Yeah it could well have been handled completely differently on a stream, or a home game.

    D&D General Worldbuilding Assumptions: The Nature of Gods

    Personally my view even in a setting where "Gods are canonically real and make their presence known in unambiguous ways." there is nothing to prove gods are anything other than just slightly more powerful entities.

    D&D General When do you overrule RAW?

    Again just unfairly penalises the martial player by making them just through an extra hoop.

    D&D General When do you overrule RAW?

    No but, why should she need to, players don't have to explain how magic works.

    D&D General When do you overrule RAW?

    I don't think it was necessarily a doomed venture, if she could of come up with some reason to stop it that made some sense within the fiction, rather than just the rules, I think he would have allowed it. But that does penalise unimaginative players.

    D&D General When do you overrule RAW?

    Yeah if you are going to do that then you need to do the same for magic users.

    Are Superhero films dying?

    It's a DC Superhero movie not about Batman, with a star that has allegations about grooming minors of course is going to bomb. It managed $267 mil worldwide. Blue Beetle did even worse $121.5 million worldwide. I don't know exactly why but DC superhero movies don't tend to get the same audience...

    D&D 5E (2024) The Cleric should be retired

    Yeah they fixed the Cleric in 2nd Edition with Skills and Powers made them much more interesting and varied. Would love to see something similar for 5th.

    D&D General Nolzur creates inclusive miniatures, people can't handle it.

    Which was my point about it having to be a wheelchair and not something too fanciful, otherwise it isn't really representation. It's why they introduced a chair option in Cyberpunk Red, despite the fact cybernetic limbs were invented in the game specifically to remove disabilities. It's not...
