Amazon reviews are useless. Its self selected by people who have already decided to buy. Additionally theyre reviewing delivery speed or whatever. APs also take about 6 months to play so you're reviewing first impressions. WotC always has high production values.

Knights of the Old Republic/Tales of the Jedi would be the obvious one. Proper Jedi vs Sith. Both orders at full strength en masses. Wraith squadron inspired also be good. X-Wing pilots not as good as Rogye Squadron in dogfights. But they're very good at infiltration.

I watched the hunger games movies somewhat recently. Wouldn't rave about them but mindless fun. Otherwise dont care.

Disliking Harry Potter since 1998. Called it!!!! Thought it was a stupid concept when I first heard about it. Watched one movie and didn't do it for me.

That still feeds into the fix it yourself problem i woukd argue nist of the adventures gave. Most of the time the concepts are fine along with production value. Can you gave fun? Sure. Imagine how much more fun you could have with less work if they were better to begin with. That's the...

I find its harder to get PCs to care about the locals and location if youre moving around a lot. Smaller sandbox Barovia,Phandelver, Waterdeep, the Dales etc tend to work better imho. As always ymmv. I've kinda switched after BG3 and using Kingmaker, Dragon of Icespire Mountain and CoS as...

Im young Gen X. Not many in my age group. I find more veterans older and young 30s on down. University city. I could probably advertise tomorrow and get 5-7 in a week or two student age. I took on dad+kid combo as finding a group for 40 year old and 13 year old son was apparently hard...

Yeah I bought OotA very early. Never wanted to run it. Kinda useless to mine. HotDQ at least has a decent hook and we tried it. Also has a built in excuse. PotA was at least fun for 5 levels and great to mine. No good adventures 2014-16. Yay. Edit CoS was 2016 thought it was 17. Time...

Here theyre generally older or under 20 with there friends. Not many in the 25-39 range.

Lightly railroaded in a sandbox works. HotDQ was very railroaded. Once around the Realm type adventures don't tend to be very good.

Older TVs still seem to last. If they're not plasma.

Yeah but apparently it's 1 in 20 are DMs. DM shortage and all that. Veterans of multiple editions are probably sub 10% at this point. Last WotC survey 75% were 18-40 iirc. Veteran DM would be say a couple of years or several campaigns I suppose. I've got 3 DMs in my group we're basically...

We had two grouos faceplate the start of HotDQ. Changed to rules and not being clear how many encounters to use. A third grouo got past the start but quit out of the boring rail loaded nature. Looks ok later on has sone decent chapters. Personally I think its crap, But Out the Abuss might...

I. 1950 utility was. That old stuff is inefficient but reliable. New stuff is old at age 10.

This. Its really not obvious. Its experienced DMs assuming everyone plays line them. Experienced DMs are a minority. DMs in general are a extreme minority apparently.

World shattering events sound cool. Running them however...... Any high level adventures you recall that do it well? Paizo stopped doing higher level stuff.

It was the fist 1-20 campaign and D&zD had 20 levels since 1989. And people had been asking for it since around 1998 in Dungeon magazine. Not sure if you were aware. If you can't see the appeal of a 1-20 campaign in 2002 thats on you.

I remember on the forums apparently they admitted they didnt playtest past 10th level. They converted a lot of AD&D spells and between removing concentration and changing initiative they goofed up. They also swung the other way. I think they took forum chatter as gospel. I had 60 odd 3E...

I dont use ignore buttons. I dont care if people disagree with me. Its ENworld its a bubble now where you expect to get gaslight and strawmanned by people not actually playing the game. More serious business you do it elsewhere.

I like maps. Im also after monsters, encounters, magic items etc. Out of the Abyss was fairly terrible overall. Other meh ones like PotA and DiA also useful to some extent. Just as well slops subjective term. Theres worse but so many of WotC APs fall into the meh can be great needs work...
