Speaking of Project: Dark, just by random chance I got the opportunity to play a session that Will ran at Origins 2014. I had no idea who he was at the time, and was very disappointed that I had missed the Kickstarter. At the time, he was saying that the book would be out by the end of the year...

Assault of the Giants and Conquest of Nerath are both asymmetric games based on D&D creatures.

Man, I'm sad that they're using weapon mastery, the thing I hate most about D&D 2024. (Yes, I know I can house-rule it.)

Just going by the date, the third digital expansion will be a Thanksgiving-themed adventure. Or maybe Christmas. Okay, maybe not.

Look, I don't want to be a grumpy old guy, but I would love to read a more critical assessment of this book. Is 2E an improvement over 1E? (Having played SF 1E and PF 2E I feel sure that it probably is.) It just seems like every Paizo product gets glowingly positive reviews here. [I am not a...

The article says that the learning tracks will take place over four days. So, that's confusing.

There are people (like me) who would have no idea what that means. I know there is a show or something with that name? But seriously, I know nothing at all about it.

Just to balance out the earlier comment: I've been to Origins 24 times, and I have literally never smelled sweat. People love to perpetuate this unkind myth that gamers don't bathe, but I've had only positive experiences. There was one point I walked through the food court and it smelled like...

Psst... it's "Dark Sun," not "Dark Suns."

As someone who backed the unfulfilled 2014 KS, there's no way in h*ll that I'd back this.

I need to know more about the Debatable Lands.

You can just say "roll damage with advantage." :)

The PHB Rules Glossary says that a "monster" is any creature controlled by the DM, even if that creature is benevolent. Personally, I find that a poor definition of the word, but that's the official stance. Can we all agree (of course we can't) that the book is called "Monster Manual" because...

As someone who DMs a lot and doesn't always have a lot of time or motivation to do a lot of prep, I like the campaign books. I'd also be okay with another compilation of conversions of older adventures, just because I enjoy that stuff. But we're not that far out from Infinite Staircase, so...

I have the same mixed feelings about these as I have about glow-in-the-dark dice. Yes, they're fun, but how would you actually use them?

Forever DM here. I hope they made all the monsters 50% tougher. I'm currently running the Vecna adventure, and I swear no one at Wizards has any idea how to challenge a high-level party. All the fights are much too easy for high-level characters. Obviously, I can do things on my own to make them...

I realize this is my own fault for not nominating it, but no Adventure Time RPG? Or is it not eligible for some reason?

"Accommodate up to 4 dices..." No! Bad ad! If you're selling a dice-related product, please use the correct plural. (I know everyone hates pedantry, but come on!)

Man, I really wish they had put more effort into those DM tracker sheets. They look like someone dashed them off in five minutes. Why is there a huge box for "alignment" on that NPC sheet? You really only need space for two letters. I've seen a bunch of third party "campaign tracker" products...

I'd love to have a clearer description of what the music actually sounds like. It's really hard to tell what to expect from the super vague description in the press release.
