[QUOTE="MortalPlague, post: 6400624, member: 62721"] [MENTION=6775377]Selkirk[/MENTION] - It sounds like you've been burned on homebrew before, and that's a shame. The published modules for 5th Edition have been, in my experience, excellent. I haven't played Phandelver or Hoard of the Dragon Queen, but I'm involved in the alpha playtest, and so I've had a chance to see some of the stuff that's coming up. And there's been more of it flooding my inbox than I can handle with my groups. First off, Scourge of the Sword Coast is a truly excellent adventure that should not suffer at all using the final rules. My group played through a number of the episodes (we didn't have time to do the whole thing), and it was a ton of fun. Very good if you like a little bit of sandbox play, where you can approach a problem from multiple angles. Secondly, while I can't speak for Hoard, Rise of Tiamat is quite good. It takes a bit of work on the part of the DM to bring things to life, but the scope and scale of this adventure is truly amazing, and as we near the finale, things are definitely hitting an epic note. Thirdly, there is a series of adventures that are coming out, I'm not sure where. I think it'll be the Expeditions program in stores? If you saw Defiance in Phlan at PAX or Gen-Con, it's associated with that, and it's a pretty beefy set of adventures, all pretty good. So rest assured, there is more content coming up soon. I can't say when, as I have no idea at all, but keep an eye out. [/QUOTE]
