Yeah what's happening with that "new setting" WotC huh? Didn't they say there was one coming a while back?

If by unique one means "objectively inferior and by a very large amount". Literally it is just a worse Battlemaster with bonus MAD.

I mean I suspect this will be toned-down as hell but there exists a small possibility that WotC, having turned around enough that they already changed their mind on doing Dark Sun, may have decided to go for a least a partially "proper" Dark Sun (probably minus slavery but that's been a given...

Yup. Any except Gladiator. If wanted to do literally all those things, even to RP a Gladiator, I'd just play Battlemaster. Anything this can, it can do better. Without being MAD. The only situation I see Gladiator even maybe making sense is if you were already using CHA as your attack stat, i.e...

RIGHT?!???!?!?!?!?! Jesus lol. To say Dark Sun is "confirmed" is quite an understatement. Which is fascinating, because how long ago was it that someone high-up from WotC (Crawford, Perkins, that other guy who was even above them for a while but left? Not Winninger, the guy WotC made for the...

Last time I tried (a few years ago) that I hadn't played for like, just 2-3 years, and suddenly instead if just being like a space ninja robot who goes to spaceships and bases and hits people with a sword until loot falls out of them, I was a person who owned space ninja suits, as were others...

My immediate thought lol.

I'm just profoundly unconvinced that this actually produces as a better outcome than, I dunno, other systems. Slightly different? Perhaps but better? One thing I don't hear is a lot of like, exceptional praise for Genesys. It's well-regarded but like, moderately so. It's definitely good to get...

Lots of upcoming games announced, one them basically a Voyager "You make the choices" game. I am going to get Paris killed so fast and hopefully I can respond to Neelix with "phasers set to kill". I assume this will lead to me being back in the Alpha quadrant in no time at all!

What a cover! I don't know if I'm Cairn's target audience and I have my hands full with Daggerheart, but what a cover! When they make 6E D&D they seriously need to put in stuff like this. WotC corpo types may not get it, but I think more of this would actually just make people like the game more.

WHAT DID KARLACH EVER DO TO ANYONE?! Good lord! Why are you putting her in with a horrible sarcastic vampire (who is admittedly very funny) and the angriest frog-person in Realms-space? She's a lovely girl! That's like writing about Buffy: "Man I really hate Spike, Tara and The Master"! Like...

My only question here answered, so I can just kind of not care about this and see how good stuff is once it's all out. Thank you.

I am genuinely mystified why WotC-brand 5E seems so strongly opposed to creatures having more than one type. As far as I can tell, absolutely nothing about 5E's rules (2014 or 2024) breaks if you consider creatures to have more than one type. Like, Protection from Evil and Good? If you have the...

Thinking like it's Buffy/Angel the ones you're missing are: Graveyard Trash dump Upscale shopping area/mall - (which is distinct from the outwardly scarier "city streets" but might be more likely to contain weirder magical beings or threats) The Docks - (at least in Buffy/Angel this is...

I mean I can't disagree on the final note there! The first two though I don't think he really understands the system. There's no such thing as an action, only an Action Roll!

Gosh what a tempting offer lol. Only full price!

Pretty much everyone who knows about Dark Sun except you? Every single person who has expressed an opinion on the subject in this thread has said that the major themes of Dark Sun are: 1) Climate change caused by greed and lust for (magical) power, and that this is bad. (Ecological disaster)...

Yeah I got that too, but I wasn't even offered the first book!

Shadow dropped in the sense that Sigil was "shadow dropped"?

Mentioning a fact about Athas is not the same as "supporting your position". It's absolutely a fact that Athas doesn't have gods, as the second video mentions, but it doesn't support your #1 theme claim. Also, you're asking me to prove a negative. That's impossible. No-one would make a video...
