It’s simply okay to disagree without attributing motives to one’s positions or claim they didn’t read the article…you know @Ruin Explorer - the actual bad behavior in the thread.

Yes, but I also recognize that the speculation in the absence of actual information is still just clickbait, which is ultimately my point.

🙄 I think your bad behavior meter is in need of a tune-up then. Regardless, I couldn’t care less of your opinion on my behavior. It is literally a recap of events at WotC for the past year sprinkled with unsubstantiated comments like this: This is just low hanging fruit that we’ve heard...

Yes, I read the article. It’s algorithm bait.

So in other words, there’s actually nothing to say but we’re going to speculate wildly anyways.

Anders is awesome and I’ve tried a lot of new cocktails thanks to his videos!

I’m about to put that person’s posts into ChatGPT for summarization because I’ve read a few of them like three times and still can’t understand what the hell they’re saying.

I will be googling this Stokerverse today.

Man, I loved Masque of the Red Death. We ran it for about 6 months when it came out - probably had about level 5 characters when we were done. Cover and guns were the important differences in battles and we played it not that different from Call of Cthulhu in that if you resorted to fighting...

Wisdom has always been my favorite dump stat for this reason!

There are a lot of folks that say that is precisely what Shadowdark did. At its heart, it is a 5e ruleset that stripped all of the extra flash and made it a more OSR style game. The core mechanics are still 5e, though. Hey, maybe Keith Ammann can find his happiness again writing for Shadowdark!

One of my favorites that you just don’t see anymore was another Rankin/Bass special called The Stingiest Man in Town that had Walter Matthau voicing Scrooge and Tom Bosley as “The Humbug”. It’s a pretty straightforward retelling of A Christmas Carol (with the Humbug serving as the narrator) but...

My personal trifecta is Scrooge (musical version with Albert Finney), Love Actually (I actually love this movie), and Die Hard (which is totally a Christmas movie).

Yeah, the nature of faith theme was a solid backdrop to this movie, and Josh O’Connor was absolutely spot-on playing someone who was having his reasons for this faith challenged from every direction. I was also cackling every time Josh Brolin was onscreen - particularly his “confession” scene...

That would allow everyone to still participate without having to worry about whether they’re going to be spoiled (or spoil others). It’s not like we haven’t had multiple threads about the same subject before.

Um. No.

I adored this movie! The Knives Out series sits comfortably in my cozy murder mystery pantheon. I’m such a sucker for this formula and Rian Johnson does a great job breathing fresh life into the standard tropes. They can keep making these movies forever and I’ll keep coming back.

Yeah, but I don’t think it’s just Concentration. The ability to dig deep and persevere, to me, is not defined by concentration. It’s a different quality. Hence why I think it’s a seperate stat.

I can prolly make an argument for it being part of other abilities, but I don’t think it’s a comfortable fit. I’d prefer it as its own thing - it’s not just a physical endurance. It’s also a mental toughness thing.

Well I can’t speak to every other d20 game out there and whether this exists or not, but Grit would be a cool attribute. It represents the character’s ability to pull from somewhere deep inside of them to do something that their other attributes maybe suggest they can’t. It’s that thing that...
