    Wizards of the Coast Hiring New Lead Designer and Head of Game Ecosystem for D&D

    They absolutely have a multiyear plan. Yes, plans can, will, and do change. But the last 10 years of D&D -- the most successful in its history -- are no doubt shaping the plan for the next 10 years. The last thing WotC wants to do is create a new edition. It's time consuming, costly, and high risk.

    Wizards of the Coast Hiring New Lead Designer and Head of Game Ecosystem for D&D

    That's conspiratorial thinking. They say nothing = "They must be hiding something!" They say something = "They must be lying!" Either way, people see it as validation for their pet theory. Drives me crazy.

    Wizards of the Coast Hiring New Lead Designer and Head of Game Ecosystem for D&D

    There is nothing in the job posting that suggests 6E is in development. Nothing. This looks like the backfill for Jeremy Crawford. Work with other senior to leaders to develop a product roadmap, decide which rules will be in new products, and develop the rules. So, what does "rules" mean for...

    D&D (2024) It Is 2025 And Save Or Suck Spells Still Suck (the fun out of the game)

    I love 5E. But, I've had some version of this experience multiple times. Yes, save or suck spells are partly to blame. But what compounds the problem is the sheer versatility of D&D spellcasters. When the same character can cast suggestion, fireball, fly, etc it wreaks havoc with encounter...

    Aging and Gaming

    I'm sure I've said this before (maybe on this thread!) but in 2017 I got together my old gaming friends. We've been playing at least 30 times per year every since. And it's online. Because we're not only in different parts of the country...we're in different countries. However, we have gotten...

    D&D (2024) Psionics: What Do You Want?

    I distinctly remember someone (Jeremy Crawford?) saying that UA feedback indicated 5E players did not want to learn a unique subsystem for psionics. That's likely why we ended up with this expression of psionics.

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    Psionics? That can mean only one thing. GAMMA WORLD.

    D&D General How Was Your Last Session?

    Almost 40 sessions into my 13th Age campaign. Eyes of the Stone Thief expanded to cover all 10 levels. Five player characters on the cusp of 5th level. I've not been posting regular updates, but we are playing on the regular. Since I last posted, a lot has happened. The characters: Were...

    How do you handle gems as a GM?

    I want to be this guy: "You find an onyx worth 50 gp and two opals, each worth 75 gp." In reality I'm this guy: "The troll's treasure totals 137gp each. Let's take a short break. I need to pee."

    Shadowdark General Thread [+]

    Time to introduce my 8 year old daughter and 6 year old son to D&D. I wanted to wait for the new Starter Set to come out...but I've decided to jump in with Shadowdark. Excited to get started later this month!

    New Unearthed Arcana Released, With 8 New Forgotten Realms-Themed Subclasses

    Really dig the new Hexblade. Huge improvement over the original. Hope I get a chance to play a Pact of the Blade Hexblade with a blade and named Blade.

    D&D (2024) You Can Now Pre-order Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    I dig the design and art in these books...a lot. The 1920s vibe is how Eberron always looked in my head.

    D&D 5E If you could run or play in any D&D 5e campaign right now, which would it be?

    In no particular order: Gamma World. Really, really, really wish WotC would publish a 5E version. Even a single book would make me happy. Star Wars. Tempted by the FFG system... Twilight 2000. I was a player in a campaign that went almost 9 months and I'd love to do it again. Eclipse Phase...

    D&D 5E If you could run or play in any D&D 5e campaign right now, which would it be?

    It's a great adventure. I've only read it. Would love to play it. Not sure I am the right kind of DM to run it...but who knows?
