This is a better answer than one I could have come up with.

Does it matter? Work it out. Perhaps

You are being facetious but you are also assuming the negative. An essentially unprovable position. Not an unreasonable one, mind you. The thing is, I have met people that have claimed to have seen a ghost, also met someone that was with someone else that claimed to see a ghost while they were...

If the ghost can be reliably made to appear for any given witness, then we can begin to scientifically study ghosts. We used fire for a lot longer before we had any scientific understanding of what fire is and could define what fire is. The common understanding of ghosts is sufficient to start...

Or perhaps learn to enjoy rpgs as a game first.

I think you are focusing on the wrong step. I am not convinced that a rigorous definition of "ghost" is needed to do science on them or that lack of such a definition is the problem in studying the phenomenon. The real issue is step 1 (observation). We cannot reliably observe ghosts. This is the...

I have met some fruitcake, that I would be hesitant to eat also.

If the government (or anyone else) reveals independently verifiable evidence of ghosts or UFO or whatever. Then I am likely to believe them. The problem with assuming that they have evidence of something and are not revealing it, is, that the government (or anyone else) cannot prove that they do...

How about an "Don't know, Don't care" option. Also, I would like to see the results even if I do not care about the topic that much.

Could not say, since I read them in the back in the day but there were some well know (at the time ) names attached. From what I remember, they start off pretty sword and sorcery and escalate rapidly to god murder.

Depends, on where you live and do you interact with Chinese officials. I think I remember an incident of Chaosium getting some books printed in China pulped by the authorities over references to people like Zhou Enlai. If you are not likely to interact with the authorities there you should be...

I am referring to the version Matt Colville created in a video near the beginning of his "How to be a DM" series. Which, from memory was a 5 room dungeon.

Run something like the Delian Tomb, a short combo of combat, traps/puzzles and some opportunities for rp. Start in Media Res and go.

I see both as different styles but there little to no difference in quality in my opinion. I would buy a book because of either but I would not buy a book because of them either. I do not think of any of them as great.

Games are not things one should be stressing about. Striving to do better, is all very well but when it negatively affects one's play enjoyment or relationships, then there is a problem that one needs to be addressed.

It is Chaosium publication, is it not? Would it not be up to them? Unless they made an exclusive deal

Rather than creating 2 weapon fighting rules, why not create special versions of the weapons. Call them nimble or masterwork or whatever and let them have the light property

2014 or 2024? Champion fighter, archery fighting style. If 2024 then at level 4, Great Weapon Master for Heavy Weapon Mastery since a longbow has the heavy property. (add prof to damage). Try and get Alert form your background. You need Str 13 for GWM and Heavy Armor. Heavy Armor will give...

IT is not insurmountable, but they have to factor a software project into any release of a version of D&D that has significant changes to the class structure or elements of the base game, and it is much harder to schedule big software projects. Their best bet would be to rebuild D&DBeyond so...

Well apparently you can still purchase the 2014 core rule books on Beyond.
