When it asked me to rank my preferred replacement term for "race," I chose Subtype as my favorite and put Species in last place. I wasn't going to comment further but I couldn't skip the next question, "Why did you rank that term as your favorite?" I hope my answer wasn't too snarky to be useful, but it's the honest truth:

"I picked 'Subtype' as my favorite because 'Ancestry' wasn't an option."

I wonder how many people are going to make OGL 1.1 comments in the feedback. Bad timing, that.

I picked species and told them I don't care. My biggest feedback was that the combination of divine spark and the new bardic heal in one party made combat trivial at low levels. I told them divine intervention is still problematic, and the nerf to banishment went too far. That's about it. None of the changes were super earth-shattering.

I'm super glad they are asking for terms!

Did my part. Never got to playtest the cleric but I added my 2 cents in for the Ardling, Goliath and Dragonborn as well as the glossary questions.

• Species
• Kind
• Subtype

I can live with any of the three.

"Species" is the most self-explanatory.

"Kind" is Medieval and Ancient, and equates to Species.

"Subtype" can work but hurts my ears and gives the impression that the Type itself is "super" important.

 

[Yaarel]

I want the Cleric flavor as setting neutral as possible.

Including as cosmologically neutral as possible.

Wonder how much of the new OGL v1.1 will appear in the last comment box?

Probably some. Please don’t make this thread another ogl 1.1 thread.
