I just got the latest BT novel Voidbreaker, and I gave up a hundred pages in. It just wasn't grabbing me. The main character had no personality. She was just a vessel for plot. And that plot was plodding. Too much pondering and planning, which could work if it was balanced with character...

That sounds awful. Are you safe now?

Forging a long-term relationship is more valuable than short term losses. Morgan represents a massive global operation trying to get a foothold in Flint, and helping the constables root out the Kell Guild will lead to more long-term profits. Plus, Morgan is, at his heart, sincerely devout to his...

Then I will not explain why I'm boycotting.

Yes, the movie looks promising, but here's the thing.

This does not bother me, but to be fair, I've never touched a Fantastic Four comic nor seen any of the movies. Apparently the Silver Surfer is important. I frankly think the whole premise of a giant dude who eats planets who has a shiny guy as his herald or whatever sounds pretty silly, and...

My answer? I think diverse representation matters more than fidelity to unimportant elements of source material. The MCU leads have been more white, male, and American than the per capita rate of that group among the human race. Yeah, the films are adaptations of comics that were often made by...

Pardon me if I missed it, but did you have an earlier thread that introduced the PCs? If you're just doing this for yourself to keep records, feel free to ignore me.

I kinda disliked Twin Peaks: The Return. I liked Fire Walk With Me best of any of the Lynch stuff I've seen, which proved he could do Twin Peaks and have an interesting tone without Mark Frost. But The Return just lacked verve. It was one note, and that note was unsettling. Like, I get it, I...

Can you draw the map at a "1 square = 30 ft" scale?

I admit to starting off a little lost from the pause since the last update, but a quick reread refreshed my memory. I was not involved in Under the Eye of the Tempest due to scheduling stuff, so I wonder whether the boss fights in this one will actually be challenging. :D

Those are amazing. Hiding in carvings is awesome! Okay. Now how to design the battle map? Hmm.

I want to have a dungeon crawl with a series of encounters against a singular dragon, where the party first spots evidence of its presence and its powers, then encounters it somewhere they have the option to flee because it's mostly invulnerable to their attacks initially, but then they find a...

The Ob is pretty compartmentalized, and most of its members are canny enough to maintain operational security, so if he'd worked with, say, Caius Bergeron before (maybe been the one to recruit him), when suddenly this deva shows up, Caius would have a moment of recognition, and he might probe...

I love the details in the politicking.

I think you're using the word MacGuffin to mean something else than I'm used to. The campaign does have an NPC in most adventures who are aligned with the party in interest and can provide information. You don't need to keep them, though. Torrent is a link to the resistance because the...

I just woke up, but that sounds cool. Um, thematically or like ideologically, I might distinguish the primary timeline industry from the alternate timeline industry by saying that the demonocracy Would have more one-off inventions, rather than like modern industrial production lines, maybe...

ZEITGEIST was not explicitly situated in the standard D&D multiverse cosmos. You can put it there if you want, and thus have Baator and such, or you can have it be in another thematically-similar multiverse. I think that, per EN Publishing, the Level Up product line posits a version of the...

Plots that take place in a world that's perfectly good are hard. But the elemental plane of fire isn't fire in every square inch. It's fire-themed, but there's still air and earth and even a bit of water. So I'm fine with the good alignment planes being a solid representation of that...
