I would say hitting over the head with the pommel, but it is when you do a normal strike that inflicts slashing damage. 🤔

How so? The narrative of the backgrounds? The ones in the 14 PH were fairly generic and archetypal and broad and easily applied to a bunch of concepts that would fit most worlds. The associated feats? In 24 they do have a lot of spellcasting ones from things that I might not expect...

That is check with the DM for house rules in general, not that backgrounds were DM granted as a default without house rules. This applies equally to whether you can play a rogue or a dwarf or a Neutral Good alignment or any other element of a character. The shift of custom backgrounds to the...

It kind of surprises me to see new edition specific monsters that first came out in a 3e module in the 2000s spotlighted in something that is meant to evoke a 1e 80s D&D game. A treant corrupted by demons or something seems like it would hit the same narrative spot and use 80s appropriate...

I don't remember that being part of the 14 PH saying check with the DM for permission. The closest I can find is page 127 in the section on customizing backgrounds, if none of the sample background special features fit your concept then you work with the DM to come up with something. "If you...

Another thing that annoys me about 24 backgrounds is how much they are framed as DM tools for world building and not PC tools for character building. Even when it talks about meeting a player's concept of their character it is framed as an optional DM thing to do. From the 24 SRD in the DM...

It helps but I'd say it was addressed better with Tasha's. :) A number of games are PH only for options, and it will not help those who play in such games. Adding in stuff in specific settings adds stuff for those using those settings or for those DMs willing to allow use of stuff from there.

I had missed that if it was in the last season. Cute.

I think it is more about balance of options versus deliberately making certain specific concepts work well or poorly for specific archetypes. Should there be specific ones that synergize well mechanically (3e half orc barbarian with bonus strength) and ones that are mechanically detrimented (3e...

I really enjoy about half of the 2e Ravenloft modules. About half are terrible with things like railroads designed for one shots with cheap shocks (The PC dies off screen to be replaced with a doppelganger or they inescapably lose their body and are stuck in a different one) or completely off...

There is not a lot of full on print 3e FR modules, they did more sourcebook type things than modules in 3e. You mentioned the big three hardcover trilogy adventures and Sons of Gruumsh has already been mentioned. City of the Spider Queen takes characters from 10-18 or so. The Twilight Tomb is a...

I can only say I preferred the removal of ASI from species in Tashas and I complain about background-tied ASIs in 24.
