    D&D General D&D 2024 does not deserve to succeed

    One of the reasons I got so heavily into Savage Worlds is because Shane and PEG, Inc. never, ever said (that I recall) “Our game is better than X because X sucks.” It was almost always “Our game rocks because it does Y! And Y is Fast, Fun and Furious!” Shane spent his time saying why SW was...

    D&D General D&D 2024 does not deserve to succeed

    WotC wasn’t who jumped into the D&D forum to tell us how the game we like sucks and we don’t realize it because we’re uneducated, uncultured swine, though.

    D&D General D&D 2024 does not deserve to succeed

    Yeah, but you can say: "I really like how X is done in system Z Secundus instead of how it was done in system Z Primus" without saying "and system Z Primus sucks! And if you like Z Primus, it's gotta be because you're ignorant and uncultured!" EDIT: Oh, and as a side note, I looove McDonald's...

    Grading the Mörk Borg System

    I voted "pretty bad." But I may just think that way because I had such a hard time reading and parsing the information contained within because of the layout of the pages. Waaay too busy for me.

    EDIT: The below post has some fairly icky, real life description on the results of Vaping. Read at your own risks. Oh... my... gosh... Ok. This is a huge tangent but it's gotta be said. I'm an anesthesia provider. A large, large, LARGE percentage of what I do deals with airway, breathing...

    D&D General D&D 2024 does not deserve to succeed

    I suspect that I'll play D&D 2024 even though I'd rather play other games because it's the game my group wants to play. And I just want to hang out and play with my friends. As I grow older, my attitude has changed a lot towards games. I'm no longer searching for the perfect system. I no longer...

    D&D General D&D 2024 does not deserve to succeed

    Yeah, I'm only really iffy on FHB and D&D Killers if they start off by saying that the game they're based their own game on sucks. I mean, why would they base their game on a game that they think sucks? Are they just trying to cash in on D&D's popularity because they know their own game could...

    D&D General D&D 2024 does not deserve to succeed

    Really? Ehem... (emphasis mine) Disposition System: Combines rolling dice with roleplay where the words you say to NPCs can trigger changes in them along with rolling high or low. I wanna play that glib, suave talker because, in real life, I suck at it. As my posts are evidence of! Ha...

    D&D 5E (2024) PHB 2024 - General Impressions and Random Things I Noticed

    Holy Crap, John Carpenter’s The Thing is one of my top 5 favorite movies. Ehem. But that’s neither here nor there. 😂

    D&D General D&D 2024 does not deserve to succeed

    Yeah, I’m sort of a stick in the mud in that I tend to take the Quick Build, minimally change it and then just play. To ME, the character is all in how it’s played. Not the mechanics behind it. But I readily admit that I’m odd that way.

    D&D General D&D 2024 does not deserve to succeed

    I went in with an open mind. But by time I got to the end of the Kickstarter video, I had lost track of which points did what and how often. I just didn’t see the point of Melee points, Mana Points, Action Points, Rolled Above Points and other points in a system that supposedly played quickly...

    D&D General D&D 2024 does not deserve to succeed

    Oh, boy. I posted too soon. Apparently there are stamina points and points for rolling well and ways to influence your roll by how well you roleplay. Which has always made me cringe. I suuuuck at social skills and anything that makes me have to use them to get bonuses to my rolls makes my...

    D&D General D&D 2024 does not deserve to succeed

    Oof. Took a deeper look at DC20 and… it seems like there’s a lot of point tracking and lots of decision points (Mana points, action points, etc., etc., and how those points are used etc., etc.,) that would just slow down my groups turns. I can see where it would add flexibility, but I’m not...

    D&D 5E (2024) Rules that annoy you

    People do (just not ALL people)! It's one of the many signs that I look for when someone is emerging from anesthesia. (They start making the swallowing action/motion). Only problem is that anesthesia messes it up! When I do Monitored Anesthesia Care for an EGD, they're just sedated and they do...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 is out...and yet.....where are the threads?

    I Yeah. I’ll admit that I like giving money to companies that make things that I like so that they make more of the things I like… It’s a character flaw.

    D&D 5E (2024) Is anyone going to use the new 2024 backgrounds?

    After 40+ years of customizing, house ruling and optimizing (to some extent), I no longer have either the desire nor the will to go much beyond what it presented in front of me anymore. The juice is rarely worth the squeeze to me. I just want to make a character quickly (or take a premade if the...
