That could be fun! You’d be a strong wizard! Edit cause I don’t want to make another post, cause I’m not arguing with you. I just think it’s ok to acknowledge that people have different preferences and don’t all play the same. I would totally have played a 3e Minotaur wizard with those...

I have in 5e with Kobold Press’ Minotaurs. It was mad fun!

Heck yea, give me the plus 6! I want the god elves!

It isn’t passive aggressive, and if you read it that way, I apologize as that was not my intent. I’m glad you have discovered what works for you and that you have a solid conception of what you don’t like. Equally, I’m solid on what works for me and my table. To each their own; I don’t have any...

I’m glad you have discovered what you like and don’t like, and have the presence of mind to not police other people’s imaginations or preferences when it comes to their games of make believe.

Cool. I’m not uncomfortable with it cause I think they handle it extraordinarily well, so I’ll direct you to their work so you can decide for yourself. I’m not interested in changing your mind, I’m sharing my opinion on a system that does it well. Your mileage may vary, and that’s cool.

Now you’re purposefully trolling, which is against the rules here and so I’m just going to report and then block you. I’m going to politely remind you that you’re getting mad and swearing at me because my preferences in my make believe fairy tale games are different than yours.

My fiction is divorced from the real world as I am not a child and I am not playing at allegory. I’m not interested in this conversation with you, especially since you decided to swear at me.

This isn’t real life, it’s a fantasy game established on a literary property that has distinct regional differences between peoples that is emphasized through the story telling. Again, I’m not sure what the issue is here, as we are dealing with a fictional game of make believe dealing with...

Why does it seem questionable? It’s been the accepted practice through a good chunk of DnD’s history that some races/lineages get +1 to this stat, +2 to another etc etc. I’m not sure I follow what you’re saying here.

In the recent LotR works by Free League, The Folk of Dale, Men of Bree, and Wardens of the North are all different regional heritages/races/lineages. That’s why I consistently referred to regions/peoples above. They all have innate stat differences, because the mechanics all purposefully match...

I see how that might work out for some, but it doesn’t work for me. I don’t like it. I like lore tied to mechanics and vice versa, and I like my species to feel mostly alien to each other. As I said above, I’ve been doing a deep dive into Tolkien lately, and I appreciate how he gives each of his...

nuDnD post Tasha and that terrible Monsters of the Multiverse flattened and arguably neutered all meaningful species/lineage/racial differences in this system. It’s nearly all style now, meaningful mechanics coupled with lore have gone by the wayside. I think that it makes for a rather boring...

I am super excited about this! FoF wasn’t simply disappointing, I found it bad—poorly written, poorly explained, and ultimately poorly conceived. Only RPG product I’ve returned for a full refund. I simply can’t wait for Colonial Gothic!

I mean, I don’t know about anyone else, but I won’t simply buy or use the books if I find them lacking in areas I find interesting such as races. There are other books with the material I am looking for.

Reading through the books right now, I really like them. Love love love the art!

When they clog up the front page, and the conversation is all the same, then typically they’re grouped into a single thread. That way other topics can get more eyeballs. This isn’t that complicated nor is it asking too much.

They’re annoying as heck, vastly overhyped and breathless, and generally preachy. I’d love it if I didn’t have to see that junk unless I had too.

Thanks for clarifying!
