    OSR OSR-inspired video game, The Secret of Weepstone, has a trailer

    Quite like the look of it, I might give this one a look when it's released.

    D&D General Players Decide when to Level Up

    I could happily sit at level 5-6 for ages.

    D&D 5E (2024) How excited are you for the 2 upcoming Forgotten Realms books?

    Sure, but this thread is about how excited are we about the new books. For those of us that aren't, why bother buying them just to change things.

    D&D General Dragonborn In Your Game (A Poll)

    You might be thinking of paragon classes. I can't remember if they were base classes or prestige classes but they allowed you to become more dwarfy or more elfy. Pretty sure they were in 3.5, I know they had some in the WoWrpg.

    D&D General Dragonborn In Your Game (A Poll)

    In my setting dragonborn can have tails because I don't care of they do or not. They don't have wings, but sorcerers are typically draconic sorcerers as that gets them closer to their draconic forbears and they get wings from that.

    D&D 5E (2024) How excited are you for the 2 upcoming Forgotten Realms books?

    I've gone from a little to not at all (and I might have been very interested when first announced, but I might have already been disappointed with the 5.5 updates by that point). I was interested in the lore to see where they're going with the setting but I've reached the point where I no longer...

    Check Out The Mutants & Masterminds 4E Playtest

    It seems to be fairly common. I didn't bother with it, not sure what the differences are between 3rd and 4th, but don't want to spend money on a playtest to find out. If I knew it would eventually be the core handbook, maybe, but otherwise, nah.

    D&D General Disparity in PC levels from same party

    Well, I can't speak for 0e/1e but a lot of the 2e adventures did care about numbers. They'd often have a "For 3-5 players of levels 2-4" or something like that.

    Diablo RPG Kickstarter signup is live

    Yeah, you see the occasional person out and about, perhaps more during a helltide, but it's pretty empty. It's a bit more crowded at the start of a season but I expect once people reach torment 4 they stay there which makes the levelling experience quite lonely (considering normally consists of...

    That's cool, and it might explain why nephalim can become more powerful than angels and demons, they might be a truer reflection of the first being of creation.

    That was part of the plot from d3 from memory, diablo invades heaven and tries to corrupt whatever they have that allows them to be reborn. What they return as is an interesting question, would Maltheal see his time as the angel of death as a path to wisdom and return to his position as the...

    What are you reading in 2025?

    I've never read it, but my general thought is that if a book is boring, I stop reading it rather than holding out on it picking up.

    D&D General Disparity in PC levels from same party

    In earlier DnD it was definitely common to have mixed levels, I think when a PC died back when I ran becmi or 2e, they started with enough xp to be one level below the party average. With 3e onwards, it turns out that xp doesn't matter as much when everyone is on the same xp track. Not sure if I...

    SkyNet really is ... here?

    Skynet the courier company? They've been around for years!

    Watching the d4 trailer where she forms from the blood of those slain was pretty awesome, absolutely horrifying. One of the side quest chains follows the path of Elias and the others in the clip as he goes to summon her. I think the side quests are great for snippets of lore, though I don't...

    It was better after they released the expansion, before then I'd only played through the story of the base game then I quit because I didn't find the gameplay very fun.

    D&D 5E (2024) Purple Dragon Knight as a background?

    Maybe even purple dragon knight as a title; as an example, background could be urchin, class could be ranger, position and title could be purple dragon knight. Then the pdk subclass just becomes the generic name of banneret. Maybe it calls out that many pdk fighters choose it.

    When you play in person, where do you play? (Poll)

    I selected all 3, last game I played I was at the DMs home, I've also run games at their home, and we often play at a bar when it's closed.

    This might be the first kickstarter in a long time that I back, I love diablo though I have more fun when my friends play and they've sadly given up on d4. I'll be keeping an eye on it, even if I don't back it, I'll likely pick it up later.
