I think its because in the good old days you had Dragon or Dungeon. And the name was on the cover. Eg Gygax but later on Eric L Boyd or whomever and/or a foreward. Dragon or Dungeon the names were on the contents page. Monte and Mearls were active online. Mearls said no-one else wanted to...

That does make sense up to a point. Gods are cosmic forces of evil. Think of the worst humans but theyre always around and dont shoot themselves in a bunker. And have supernatural powers.

The playtest material.

Alot of Eberron stuff says Eberron campaign. So even WotC doesnt agree with anything goes.

They probably wont make Tareks a thing. More likely to retcon Orcs in. . I dont think they get the original appeal of Darksun. Being the anti high fantasy was exactly the point.

All orcs are dead though:). Not sure if Tareks are even in the OBS. They're different when you read up on them. Orcs shouldn't exist. Isolated pocket of survivors (been done with lizard men) maybe or as a mutant. DS concept was not typical fantasy. No orcs is a big part of that...

I've never taken Orcs as evil. At least inherently. They're generally from an evil culture mostly due to Gruumsh.

Thus we only had the OBS back in the day. These days I'll allow earth, aire fire, water and dune trader. Ask for anything else.

AL collapsed here because if tge. Ant exclude ppl rule. All the DMs quit. Since then every venue has explicitly backed the DMs. One grouo has gone through 5DMs in 2 years. Not sure if thats typical. A couple of my players are from imploded games. They love my games by comparison it seems...

People in this thread can reject reality all they like. Reality has a habit of slapping people in the face. Applies to the internet in general. Opinion masquerading as fact. One place I could kick players from my games. I could also kick DMs from the venue. Never had to but option was there.

Well yeah its kinda obvious snd its based off the Mordenkainens one. Humans, Elf, Goliath round out top 4 mechanically. Good at everything basically.

Yeah I cant remember which season was which. S1 and 3 are probably peak for me. Over 9 years irl means I dont remember stuff that well and I couldn't be bothered to rewatch. Alot of shows peak first 3 seasons. S1 often reslly good or mediocre relative to later seasons. Only other show...

I liked the Mall season and the Russian guy who died. Whatever season that was. I don't really remember S2 much. Due to length irl its disjointed for me and i never rewatched. Not sure if I will.

We've got 2 episodes left of last season to watch. Its a struggle. Show hasn't fallen apart like GoT did though. Its not as good as earlier seasons. Ymmv.

This imho

I had this suspicion 2002. Online 3E discussion was mostly theorycrafting. Casuals were playing it much the same as 2E imho.

Yeah people who want more crunch are a small minority. A the biggest selling D&Ds are a comparatively simple ones. 5.0, Basic line then 1E (layouts terrible its comparatively simple however) I think ship has sailed on more complex D&Ds for a generation at least. DM shortage. Won't be...

Silvery barbs bigger offense is it slows the game down as well and basically eliminates critical hits for the DM. I banned it after I saw it in play and had it on an order cleric. It had its usual effects then triggered the order cleric attack granting ability onto a rogue. Buy itself its...

You can say that about any 5E adventure though. I dont think its a hot take to say that WotC adventure ms are generally mid with only 2 great APs and some good shorter adventures.

Not much of an argument. New player gets eith the program or doesn't play basically.
