Everyone needs a good burger crawl now and then.

I don't recall @CleverNickName doing this thread ... if it's a repeat feel free to debate In-N-Out vs Five Guys vs Whataburger. What's your go-to burger? What ingredients? What's your stack? For the purpose of discussion let's start with defining a burger as a meat (or pseudo-meat) patty...

Are ogres nothing to you?

Pretty low bar, especially for a professional product published by the IP holder. Were it marketed as an intro product for brand new DMs that might be acceptable, but in this case, I agree with QB.

Are there outlines or suggestions for combining the mini adventures into a larger campaign? Edit: I found Questing Beast's review to be a bit more insightful and critical:

Sounds about par for the course ...

Paladins all have Vulnerability: Situational Comedy.

Did someone take them out of the kobold -> goblin -> orc -> hobgoblin -> bugbear hierarchy?

My wife makes me read them to her, which is annoying to both of us, so we tend not to watch things that are subtitled.

I think Mearls confused D&D with MTG.

I was in a hurry in between some things on the grill. I'll go back and edit.
