Message: <blockquote data-quote="Wraith Form" data-source="post: 1117000" data-attributes="member: 10789">But don't you see why that's frustrating?  They're Dungeon mags you've collected over time...in other words, they're "old".  Where is the current d20 adventures for DMs?  I've got every TSR adventure (and I mean that literally) published between 1995-1998, as well as every Dungeon mag from 1997 - today.  In order to get adventure ideas, I need to sift through the "old stuff" to find an adventure germ that I can cultivate in my own mind into a full-scale, full-blown adventure.  Or, I have to convert every stat into a D20 version.  Why is that?  Why do I need to do that?  Why isn't there d20 support for DMs?I personally don't give a rat's sphincter WHY adventures/modules don't sell (from the economic perspective), I just know I'd pay for some that are intelligent (BBEG plots that *make sense*), well-written, low-to-mid-level, generic enough to slot into a *majority* of the campaign settings, and don't feature a lot of half-this/half-that humanoids or demons as opponents.  I appreciate the flexibility of the rules to make diverse monsters, but this half-dragon/half-golem/half-kraken/half-vampire 30th level Librarian/2nd level Blackguard junk has GOT to go.  (Give me a simple human bad guy any day...like Iago from Othello, for example; what a BASTARD he was.)Occasionally I find those plots in Dungeon, one of the only d20 products from WotC (err, Paizo, whatever) that I will (reluctantly) continue to support.  But did anyone else find an adventure like "Life's Bazaar" to be *TOO* over-the-top?  *****************SPOILER WARNING BEGINS (just for you--you know who you are)************************************LAST CHANCE***** I MEAN IT THIS TIME * *REALLY*(A beholder secretly running a town?  Whaaat?  A town that's developed inside a dormant volcano?  You crazy or somethin'?  With a bunch of invisible, "shackleborn" birthmarks showing up on kids??  hunh???  And whose insane idea was it to have a half-dwarf/half-TROLL slaver?  I understand about rape and all that, but....yeeeech, are they even compatible?)  I'll buy adventures with plots that *work*, not this half-baked monster-fest they've been feeding us.Ahem.OK, enough coffee for one afternoon.  Sorry.</blockquote>
