No, it's a joke name based on the fact that all the players in the campaign were voice actors (Voice in the Machine).

Me, 3 posts above you: I.E, it's a common opinion that the show gets better after the first two episodes. The actual plot starts and the cringy crude humour lessens (though doesn't disappear).

Oops, double post

Regarding the first two episodes though, it's not a hot take to think they're significantly worse than the rest of the show. Really setting the bar high there ;)

Didn't Pathfinder only actually overtake 4e at the end of 2012, when development had basically stopped?

As far as I'm aware in the Dusk group that consists of Matt, Dael, OD, Justice, Tom and Anna, Only Matt and Dael consistently stream the sessions, while OD sometimes streams them. If any of the others do I'm not aware of it.

Just pulled the trigger on the 3 core pdfs, despite my brain yelling at me that I still haven't really read the last 3 kickstarter RPG books I backed. I can't resist a good bestiary, and if I'm getting that, well, I may as well get the core rulebook to see how the PCs play against the new...

I believe Dael is the only other person in the group that streams it.

I feel like people are massively overreacting to this. Of the two stat blocks we've been able to make out (War Priest and Bard), neither has had the spellcasting actually removed. They still cast spells, just each is now at will or 1/day. They've been given a single spell like ability each that...

A weaker stun that only takes your reaction.

In Campaign 1 the characters briefly went to Marquet. Sam's character heard of a drug colloquially named "Spice", decided he wanted some and went around whispering to shady looking NPCs "Do you Spice?" - IE, are you selling drugs?

KibblesTasty, arguably the most well known homebrewer on Reddit has an Occultist class, which has a witch subclass. His stuff is usually well balanced and fund to play. The Occultist is very new, so the least tested however.

If you have both disadvantage and advantage, you are considered to have neither. Therefore, since you don't have disadvantage you can still get sneak attack if you have an ally adjacent to the target who is not incapacitated.

Something I've realised I miss that was present in Tomb of Annihilation is comprehensive and detailed travel encounter tables. I don't mean the usual ones that have 10-20 results. Tomb had 90 different encounters for the main jungle section in a well organised table. Here's half of it to give an...

Use encounters that mix monster types. 95% of the encounters in recent books seem exclusively focused on what's narratively appropriate, not on what makes an interesting encounter. I don't want to fight 4 duergar for the tenth time this dungeon - let me fight creatures individually at first to...

Ah, good to see that WotC noticed their mistake in the 2018 errata regarding the change to a Demilich's hit points. Oh wait, nevermind - they corrected the HP back to what it should be, but also changed its number of hit dice so the average matches the new hit point total. They haven't removed...

So doing some more digging i think you're right, though the adventure isn't making it as easy as I'd like. For instance, it says that travel by road is even faster than across tundra, but never gives us actual road travel speeds (which are still much lower than normal road travel). It seems they...

I disagree - the table says each hour of travel the dogsled goes one mile. Then in a later section it says that after each hour of travel the dogsled rests for an hour. To me, that means an average speed of 1/2 mile per hour. I've tweeted Chris Perkins/Jeremy Crawford/Dan Dillon asking for...

What? If it's 17 miles to Easthaven and the sled travels at 1 mile an hour, it's 17 hours WITHOUT taking breaks. If you do take breaks as the rules dictate then it's 34 hours.
