    D&D 5E (2024) Is Counterspell less frustrating now?

    I think the new saving throw requirement is a good addition to the spell. However, since it now specifically targets spells that use V, S, or M components, it's become a much less useful spell for players. Most monsters cast spells without components, so those spells will be uncounterable. Most...

    D&D General How do you know an adventure is "good" just from reading it?

    No adventure appeals to everyone. I personally love adventures with little/no plot, because it allows me to make up my own, tailored to the party that's going to run in it. They don't make for good reading, however. Adventures with detailed plots make for great reading, but unless the play group...

    D&D General What is your favorite intro module?

    My personal favorite is Keep on the Borderlands. It gives new players hints on what to do without railroading them into it. Exploration and combat are easier for new players to grasp, and it gives plenty of both. The only downside is that it's written assuming the DM isn't new to D&D, giving...

    D&D General Why the resistance to D&D being a game?

    Because it's more than just a game. People generally don't object to the gamist nature of boardgames or videogames, because they are simply games. RPGs are interactive storytelling, which can sometimes conflict with the rigid confines of the rules. This is partially why RPGs need a GM: to...

    D&D General A defense of illusionism

    Illusionism is ruined once you know how the trick is done. I've played in a game where I saw the man behind the curtain, and it was never enjoyable again. Those who feel this is a worthwhile tool should be wary, for it is a double edged sword.

    D&D 5E (2024) Are you going to buy the new 2024 D&D Core Books

    PHB is a certainty. DMG depends on how good it is, but from the stated goals, I'm at least interested. MM is a doubtful, unless they do a major overhaul.
