Just to weigh in, for me, its the size of individual books. Buying a 500+ tome just isnt a turn on for me these days. I'd rather that be spread among 2-3, hell 4 separate releases.

Yeah. I may just get them when they come out.

Looks gorgeous. Now I just need to know if they will be offering all three at once with a screen next year. If so, I am getting that. If not, I have to reserve one now.

I dunno. Gotta respect the commitment to branding of having servants with a giant hand or eyeball for a head.

I hope the adventure is fun for the people who pick it up with the aim of running it. High stakes storytelling can be very compelling. But I mean, I have seen this before. The transitional storyline for 2nd to 3rd editions, "Die, Vecna, Die" feels like its basically this exact same concept, if...

See, I would mash Int, Wis and Cha into two new stats, as there is a fair amount of bleed between them, especially in 5th.

So for me, Alignment is more useful for npcs and monsters than PCs, so to give a broad strokes overview of expected behavior. Neutral on the Law-Chaos spectrum I usually take to mean just how organized and forward planning a person or group tends to be. So someone who is Neutral as opposed to...

It's hard not to by cynical. However, facts on the ground are that all art in games are part of how they are sold. Attractive images are just that: They attract us. Should images be more diverse? Yes. But I won't hold my breath because publishers want to sell their products. It's akin to...

If I wasnt looking to take a break from 5e, Dr Grordbort would be a must buy.

My disgust with all this requires profanity, but alas, this venue can't contain such safely.

Thanks for providing some clarity. The bits I saw that give me any cause for concern is #5. It is understandable that it is also the most vague and ill substantiated.

So if this is off topic, I am happy to be redirected to another thread that already goes into it. What are the issues people are citing with Daniel Fox? Is it just internet gonna internet or is there some substance?

Jasus this is disheartening. I've been trying very hard to just push past the online catastrophizing that gets amplified by outrage driven algorithms, but this is naked greed presented without shame or obfuscation in the slightest. My overall negative outlook on the effect of AI generated...

I think the danger here is confusing "good" as in to be viewed or to view oneself as morally correct and upright with "Good" as a game term, like "Lawful Good." That is a purely game term. It should no more exist in the setting than hit points.

So typically, what makes an ancestry not work is power level more than alignment expectations. A medusa doesn't work in my campaigns due to its abilities being far outside the curve for PCs, not due to it being typically evil. When it comes to species in the game and alignment, looking at the...

Honestly, it's more important for me that the other players at the table approve any new additions to their number. My players do the heavy lifting for vetting.

I'm likely to be running Scum and Villainy sometime soon and basically just run it as legally distinct Star Wars.

1987-1999. A good run of 12 years. But they were also some of the leanest years of the IP. In many ways, West End Star Wars helps keep the IP alive.

What hurts is how much Star Wars is both a great and terrible IP for a game license. There is a ton of lore that can be tapped for dozens of possible books, but it can feel too big.
