    D&D 5E (2024) How did I miss this about the Half races/ancestries

    Just seeing if I have understood the posts over time, certainly a lot of them so not going back through them all, more based on recall of them: Main reasons I think you've given -What has been in there supports gameplay that some people enjoy, and therefore to take it away will reduce...

    D&D 5E (2024) How did I miss this about the Half races/ancestries

    Jumping in here, because I like the Tyranids :) Not sure I'd classify them as evil either, bit like the Xenomorphs in alien series (That I believe they were inspired by) - they are very much other / alien, while what they are doing may be considered evil from our point of view, they aren't like...

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie Hit or Flop?

    Overall thoughts on this, yes the OP is quite clear how measuring this, so I can see why the focus is on the numbers by Zardnaar, it is the whole premise of the thread, though perhaps the title could have said something like 'D&D Move - Hit or Flop at Box Office?' or something similarly a bit...

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie Hit or Flop?

    Just noting I think you misread this part - they are saying EOne covered a good chunk of the production budget, not that the opening weekend sales covered a good chunk.

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie Hit or Flop?

    If the articles saying Shazam 2 is a flop is proof of it being a flop, then shouldn't the articles saying D&D HoT is exceeding expectations be proof it is doing alright for itself?

    The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

    Logic in one of the threads reminds me somewhat of Rabbit's logic below - 'if it says so then it is so'

    D&D Movie/TV D&D: Honor Among Thieves Open Discussion [Full Spoilers]

    Still good each time at least, I especially liked the bathtub bit.

    D&D Movie/TV Guess the D&D Movie Opening Weekend Box Office Performance, and Win a Prize!

    Where is that 50 million being a low debut coming from? Most of the projections were putting this in the 30 to 36 million range, and it looks to be exceeding that. At one point you reckoned if it was below your estimate of around 36 million it would be a flop, it is coming in higher than...

    Another Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves Review

    Second time we went to the movie we went with some people who hadn't played D&D, they felt it gave up The Princess Bride type of feel, if that helps.

    D&D Movie/TV Dungeons & Dragons movie prescreening for Amazon Prime members March 19th

    Reporting back after watching it, kids and I really enjoyed it, felt a really fun experience and would happily watch it again straight away, which isn't that common. Went in hoping for a good dungeons and dragons movie, and got a great dungeons and dragons movie. There were points where I...

    D&D Movie/TV Dungeons & Dragons movie prescreening for Amazon Prime members March 19th

    Here in New Zealand one cinema chain has advanced screenings on the 16th (timed well for a teachers strike and kids being off school) and the 17th - I will be taking my kids to evening show on the 17th :)

    D&D General How to reboot the Forgotten Realms (+)

    For me, similar to other posters, it is reverting to at least before the 4th edition changes / Spellplague / 100 year skip, while I understand the reasonings behind why they did it, I think they were flawed reasonings, basically alienating a lot of current fans to try and attract fans amongst...

    It is time to forgive WOTC and get back onboard.

    I don't know, somewhere along the way it feel the message in this thread, outside of the thread title itself, turned from a reasonable in my opinion message of 'hey, now that WOTC has backed down somewhat and 3PPs can keep publishing for 3e / 5e, don't forget to try and support 3PPs, given our...

    What's the WORST Star Wars movie?

    I was just talking to someone about Star Wars earlier today, and they mentioned how well they thought the original trilogy held up to the likes of the prequel trilogy in terms of CGI, and I was thinking um.....

    What's the WORST Star Wars movie?

    For me, the original trilogy will always be my favourite, possibly nostalgia driving it, and even with what I see as missteps in RoTJ, the first part on Tatooine is great for me with Luke having really grown / come in to his own. The prequels I still enjoy mainly thanks to Obi Wan and Dooku...

    It is time to forgive WOTC and get back onboard.

    If I may have a go at my understanding of the argument, and while I can obviously follow my interpretation, doesn't mean I actually captured what they intended, but here goes: WOTC was previously selling say to 100k customers a year. Of those, 10% or 10k were buying 3PP products. If through...

    [ORC] Vision for one or more ORC systems: convert the entire OGC archives from the start, using a massive team of converters

    Just on this one - reading the case further (and it was a bit confusing re claimant vs defendant) - the defendant took new photos, but then modified it to look somewhat like the original photo, and that was what breached copyright. If look at the bottom of the page, can see the two photos above...

    What Licensed RPG Do You Wish Existed But Doesn't?

    I would like that too, but is a funny one as Malazan came from a GURPS campaign, so in theory perhaps you could argue it is already there? But I would love a dedicated Malazan RPG in whatever system it comes in :)
