    Do You Think Open Playtests Improve a Game's Development?

    My only experience here was with last year's Daggerheart open playtest. I loved the original release and my group gave feedback. Each subsequent playtest update removed or changed elements that I liked and it spoilt some of my enjoyment. I included that in the feedback but more and more I felt...

    D&D 5E (2024) Humanoids in the MM...

    The more I see of these changes, the more likely I am to choose myself what something is. Goblins and Bullywugs as Fey, for example, doesn't fit my game world.

    For those who have embraced new systems/games, what was the deciding factor?

    We've been playing Pathfinder 1st for the last 15 years, and frankly coming back after Covid, I found that the crunchy rules and over-optimised characters had lost it's appeal. Coming back to D&D with 2024 edition still maintains some of that but on a lighter note which I am enjoying more.

    How open are you to trying new systems?

    As I mentioned in the similar thread, the problem for me is that right now I'm comfortable with D&D2024. I'm in my 50's and I don't get to game as much as I used to, and so I just want to focus on one system that I enjoy.

    D&D 5E (2024) What's Your 2026 WotC D&D Wishlist?

    Monster books. Make sure all the classics are brought up to date. Can't have enough monsters. Options. Something that is just subclasses, feats and species. Equipment Guide. One of my favourite and most often used books for Pathfinder 1st was the Ultimate Equipment book. I'd love something to...

    Ah, okay. I'm used to previous versions of the MM giving a handful playable options. Thanks for the quick answer.

    I guess not yet, but do we have any idea what will have playable options in the new book?

    What are the primary reasons your players reject other systems/settings/games?

    My group and I have largely always been D&D players. From 1st edition in the 80's through 2nd and 3rd. In that time we did dabble with the likes of Vampire, Call of Cthulhu, Star Trek and Star Wars but we always came back to D&D as the game we loved. We hated 4th and what was done with it, so we...

    Do you gaming groups that only play on system?

    I've played and GM'ed more game systems than I care to remember in my decades of role-playing. The last 15 odd years we've been primarily a Pathfinder 1st edition group. Right now I am DMing a D&D2024 campaign on alternate Sundays. The other Sunday I'm playing in a Call of Cthulhu game. I know...

    D&D General Sandwiches should exist in your fantasy world!

    A sandwich being something nice to eat between two slices of bread already exists in my world. I didn't need an Earl of Sandwich to put them there either. :)

    D&D General Recommend me a somewhat contained setting

    The City of Bard's Gate by Frog God Games, It richly details the city of the same name, the surrounding wilderness and has more than a enough plot hooks and adventure concepts to last many campaigns.

    I am surprised I am still excited for Daggerheart

    Unfortunately I lost interest in running the game after the third playtest revision changed enough that I didn't like what I was seeing, and I just jumped back on the D&D 2024 bandwagon. However, one my players really took a liking to the game during playtest and has decided to pick it up on...

    D&D General Poll: Did you watch the D&D cartoon when it was new?

    Yep. I was about 9 when it came out on UK TV and it was part of what got me interested in D&D (Fighting Fantasy books and Mazes & Monsters the other). I have the DVD collection of the cartoon on my shelf as well.

    D&D General How Often Should a PC Die in D&D 5e?

    I'm not the greatest at wording things in a written forum style, so apologies if it wasn't as clear as it should have been.

    D&D General [ART THREAD]Your Personal Favorite D&D Art For a Monster

    That's it! You star! :cool: I know it's not the greatest piece of D&D art out there but it was so weirdly inspirational to me starting out with D&D.

    D&D General [ART THREAD]Your Personal Favorite D&D Art For a Monster

    Despite a Google search I can't find mine. It was from the original basic D&D Creature Catalog book and was a simple B&W drawing of an aquatic beholder (an Eye of the Deep to use now). When I got that book as one of my first D&D purchases as a young teen, that particular picture sparked my...

    D&D General How Often Should a PC Die in D&D 5e?

    I'm not saying that a character I play should never die, just that I wouldn't want it to happen. If it does, then it does. No issue there.

    Monster Manual Suggests Changes Are Coming to Some Playable Species

    I find it interesting that they have made such changes. I was wondering if when the new Monster Manual drops, that there would be some potential playable races in there. Seems the expected options, such as goblins, have might not be possible.
