    D&D 5E (2014) Buying Adventures

    I've been subscribed to every AP from Paizo since the beginning. That alone is 81 different volumes of adventures. That doesn't include the adventures I own from basic, 1E, 2E and 3x! Heck, I even have CHAMPIONS adventures from 4th Edition and 5th Edition. Then there's my collection of...

    Adventure Utilization Poll

    Other: I use prewritten adventures almost exclusively these days. I tend to run them for the most part as is then make changes for group composition, levels and number of players. Sometimes I’ll swap out a monster or group of monsters for a different monster. The most tinkering I do is to...

    D&D 5E (2014) The cost of D&D 5E (it ain't so bad!)

    I'll just say two things: 1) 4E was very expensive for me. I, despite my misgivings about the system, figured the only way that I'd know if this is going to be my replacement or side game is to buy the books myself and run he game. So to faciliate that I purchased the D&D 4E gift set from...

    Interstellar (trailer)

    Nolan puts together trailers very unlike the rest of movie trailers are put together. Go back and re-watch the teaser trailers and then the main trailers for INCEPTION and THE PRESTIGE. They both seem like theyre giving away alot but pretty much are only giving away the SETUP for the movies...

    Star Wars Episode VII cast announced...

    Here's what I'm hoping for (even moreso that the new movies actually be good) I'm hoping that Disney/LucasFilm releases the original cuts of the OT on BluRay. Just to promote the upcoming new film. PLEASE DEAR GOD. PLEASE. It's been long enough. I have the films on LD. But just to have...

    Star Wars: Disney scraps the Expanded Universe

    As most obsessives tend to do. This thread kinda represents the alternatively the Best and Worst of fandom. The more rational fans understanding how these things work and the other side taking it personally and kind of lashing out at the thing they love and other fans. I love my hobbies...

    Star Wars: Disney scraps the Expanded Universe

    The more that I think about it the more that I think ditching the EU stuff is a GREAT idea. Granted there are things about the EU that I think would work great in the films but as I said before alot of the EU stuff is of questionable quality. Great fuel for RPG's where things can be reworked...

    Star Wars: Disney scraps the Expanded Universe

    I was 6 or 7 when I saw Star Wars in 1977. It's impacted my life in a huge way for a long time. I love the OT. So much so that I still have my laserdisc player because I STILL have my OT (unaltered) laserdiscs. While I've read and enjoyed some of the expanded universe stuff most notably the...

    Most Difficult Movie to Watch?

    I'm sorry that you place a higher value on the people who misinterpret and really miss the point of these stories as opposed to the actual stories being told. And the actual stories arent tales of glorification. It's "this life seems awesome at first. But then the person you think is your...

    Most Difficult Movie to Watch?

    I'm just going to interject here about the perceived glorification of the mob in certain movies. The Godfather especially the second one isnt a glorification. As a matter of fact it shows the wear and tear being involved in organised crime has on a family and the people that they love. By the...

    Most Difficult Movie to Watch?

    Takashi Miike's AUDITION and ICHI THE KILLER are pretty disturbing on multiple levels and not easy to watch at all. There's also the first 5 min of DEAD OR ALIVE which is CRAZY. I will probably NEVER watch A SERBIAN FILM. There is a french horror movie called INSIDE about a deranged woman...

    Agents of Shield: Odd vibe from series

    It does. I watched LOST as it aired and thought that the first half of S3 was the most uneven and weakest of the seasons. When I binge watched it years later on bluray it was almost a completely different experience. Now binge watching is my preferred way of watching series. It will be...

    D&D 5E (2014) Are you ready for a new edition of D&D?

    Gotcha. One last question. What was the original intent of the OGL?

    D&D 5E (2014) Are you ready for a new edition of D&D?

    Okay I see. The implication that there's a group of people who place playing a supported new game over a game that they may actually like and enjoy playing. Youre totally right about this and I didnt take this into account.

    D&D 5E (2014) Are you ready for a new edition of D&D?

    How is the business losing money on a product that they've basically abandoned and have no intention of supporting again? Which ties into the second thing, what exactly have they lost by allowing the OGL and Pathfinder to exist? This statement implies that without Pathfinder then 4E would have...

    D&D 5E (2014) Are you ready for a new edition of D&D?

    Or maybe people actually didnt LIKE 4E? I dont understand when people say this. It's as if people were simply going to play D&D no matter what. Whether they actually liked the system or not. People who liked 4e PLAYED 4e. People who didnt DIDNT. If they didnt like 4e they would have played it...
