There is another IP that Wizards owns and could have used to brand the game. The Magic: The Gathering tactical tabletop roleplaying game. They could have expunged all the sacred cows and D&Disms they wanted and no one would have batted an eye. But one thing is definitely correct, with any other...

I want Forgotten Realms adventures, set in the 1300s. I want Dragonlance adventures set shortly after the Legends trilogy. I want Ravenloft adventures, including an AP where the whole party is sucked into the Domains of Dread and gives a long path to actually getting back home successfully...

I would probably be more ok if you could have, at the bare minimum, one offensive concentration and one defensive concentration active at the same time. This would let me help out my allies while still allowing me to play the type of Mage I enjoy. Maybe a custom feat, although it just seems like...

My issue with Concentration isn't about buff stacking at all, but that this edition seems to punish you if you play anything but a blaster style wizard, where I much prefer the role of battlefield tactician. I want an Evards Black Tentacles on the group to the left, a Hold Person on the healer...

The limited magic system is the one thing keeping me from truly loving 5E. I don't include magic items in that sentiment though, they nailed those perfectly.

Thank you Morrus.

This seems like an interesting product, and Ed has always seemed like a very laid back, fun loving, easy going good guy, but the fact remains that unless they ever reverse the 100 year time jump and go back to the 1300s, my love of the Realms will be forever diminished. I just cant get excited...

GMforPowergamers, I love how you bash him for self promoting and then spend half of your post promoting yourself. I guess hypocrisy knows no bounds.

It's funny, all these years later and the 100 year time jump and slaughtering of NPCs still bothers me. I maintain a smidge hope for a retcon or reboot one day.

So no Blackstaff, no Open Lord Piergeiron, no Halaster in Undermountain. Sad panda.

I just want to know what year in DR the game will be set in. I'm much more likely to pick it up if set in the 1300s than the 1400s.

Currently playing in a Pathfinder Skype game with my original D&D group (and best friends) that spans 4 states, set in my buddies homebrew world that we have gamed in for over a decade. Also playing in a Fantasy Flight Star Wars game at my FLGS. This group is kinda random in the games they...

This might not be popular, but I actually somewhat agree with the one guys views on magic in 5E. He is over the top in delivering his message, sure, but I think it has some merit. I prefer a magic system that is rich, deep, and versatile. Where (IMO) 5E went wrong with the balancing of magic was...

I'm torn here, I think I would rather Hasbro have the rights to their IP back, without the copyright infringement precedent being set (I'm also one of the people who wants Marvel to get X-Men, Spider-Man, and Fantastic Four back from Fox/Sony). But judging purely from a movie perspective I think...

Has anyone played with the idea of having a static feat progression decoupled from the ability score increases? Something like you automatically gain a feat at levels 2, 6, 10, 14, and 18, and keeping the stat increases at 4, 8, 12, 16, and 19 (although personally I would prefer 20 for...

I too am a little bummed about this. Personally I want full 300+ campaign setting books for the following: Forgotten Realms Dragonlance Planescape Ravenloft And after that theres still Greyhawk, Eberron, Dark Sun, and possibly even Spelljammer, Mystara, and Birthright, all of which I...

0-1 and 2-4 area almost dead even (and vastly in front of all other categories), I say they split the difference and go 1-2 a year.

Go for the eyes, Boo!

The best fighter/wizard in D&D history was the 2E multiclassed fighter/mage. Throw the Bladesinger kit in there for the extra cherry on top if you wish. So I am curious where YOU are getting your drugs. ;)

None of these shenanigans would have to occur if they hadn't done the silly, ill conceived 100 year time jump. They should have just reveresed the 4E changes completely and gone back to the 1370's, calling the 4E Realms an "alternate universe".
