Even if people can't tell that it's AI generated, they can tell that it's basically an underleveled Synaptic Static and wonder why WotC is publishing redundant spells. I'm as big an AI enthusiast as anyone on this forum, but even I can tell that the quality of current AI generated content is...

Those traditions have endured countless other new and innovative games entering the market with new ways to play. I don't think this time will be different.

My impression is that most gamers want a game rather than a collaborative world-building exercise, so Daggerheart isn't really competing in the same segment as D&D. That's not to say Daggerheart isn't going to be successful. There's probably a lot of gamers who do want a more story-focused...

Critical Role is in the "steaming entertainment" business, not the tabletop gaming industry. They may be publishing an RPG but the actual business is something else.

There's a slight issue that WotC is the biggest and best paying company in the tabletop RPG space. So if you want to advance your career by switching jobs you need to move to another industry.

I suspect we already know the full story, doesn't seem like there's anything happening here other than what they are telling us.

That's a special case, purging all "offensive" language was a higher priority than explicitly overwriting all legacy content.

I'm sure the PAM attack not being an opportunity attack was intentional, but the anti-disengange function of Sentinel not working with reach weapons seems like another victim of 5.5s sloppy editing for "brevity".

The Dark Sun games are nothing like Conan Exiles.

With the 60' radius of Circle of Death, you might have to wait a while for a waiter if you cast it inside a tavern...

Agreed. The first DA game isn't good either ;)

Conversely, changing the things that the hardcore fans like about your product in the hope of increasing its appeal to casuals is often a recipe for failure.

'Realistic' in terms of buying individual miniatures rather than big batches. While you're only paying $1 per miniature, I kinda suspect you spend a lot more money in total on miniatures than the typical D&D gamer who just wants a single mini to represent his character. In terms of actual...

The pre-colored hero forge miniatures are less than great, but their grey resin figures are excellent. Not on the level of what the best sculptors can do, but they paint up nicely and they can be customized to look exactly like your character! Having a custom mini of the same quality sculpted...

looks like the characters are inside the anti-magic cone of the central eye, so the Beholder can't aim its eye rays at them.

I don't think the Necromancer is ever coming back. The whole theme of the class is to raise an undead horde, but one of the main changes from 5e to 5.5 has been to limit ways players have to gain a horde of minions.

Shield twice a day, that really makes you feel like you're playing a magic knight. Compared to the Battlemaster and other Fighter subclasses, it's like the EK doesn't have a subclass until lvl 7.

Disintegrate does say the disintegrated target can only be revived with Wish or True Resurrection, which strongly implies that they are now dead. IMO that sage ruling is just plain wrong. Effects like Disintegrate are precisely why Relentless Endurance has the caveat that it only works if...

A single classed Eldritch Knight doesn't really come online until lvl 7... Sad.

It does. Opportunity attacks are triggered when a creature you can see leaves your reach.
