    D&D (2024) New D&D Player’s Handbook Cover Reveal

    I love that AD&D PHB. I used to own a copy that my dad found at a yard sale. I have no idea what ever happened to it. I loved all the art in that book. I'm also pretty partial to the 3e/3.5e books. Part of that is probably nostalgia because that's the system I played most with, but I like the...

    D&D (2024) New D&D Player’s Handbook Cover Reveal

    Yeah man.. You're allowed to not like whatever you want. We're not the "Liking Stuff Police"

    Cost of D&D Editions, then and now

    Let's all just hope that content wise, it proves to be the most value packed as well.

    D&D (2024) New D&D Player’s Handbook Cover Reveal

    I think the new one tells a story just fine. Our heroes stand atop the parapet of a keep, and they're in trouble. Gold Dragon to the rear, Red dragon ahead of them, and the legion of kobolds who worship the dragons at their flanks. They're in a tight spot, and their only hope is each other...

    D&D (2024) New D&D Player’s Handbook Cover Reveal

    I like the art. Though yesterday @This Effin’ GM made the rounds on Twitter singing the praised about 4e, and it got me thinking about the spines of the books. The 4e books were really cool. They had like a white/parchment colored banner for the Dungeons and Dragons logo, and then they were all...

    Tell Me About DC20

    I'm not worried about the Kickstarter Funding. I'd be willing to bet on that happening. He did a book on KS a couple years ago and got it, so with his increased following since then, and how it seems like there's RPGs funding left and right these days, I'm not worried about that. I don't know...

    Tell Me About DC20

    So I'm probably not the best person to answer this, I've only been half following it. I don't watch every video and livestream, so my details may not be all correct or up to date. The Dungeon Coach (The DC, in DC20) is a D&D YouTuber. I don't know where he ranks among them but he's not the...

    D&D General Former WOTC President Cynthia Williams lands CEO role at Funko!

    I think that's the only reason it was as much of a story as it was. If the headlines were like you described no one would bat an eye at it. Instead we just get an abrupt "Cynthia is stepping down. No further news" which leads for all of us to try and fill in the blanks. I think more than one...

    What keeps uninterested players showing up each session?

    Like I said. I was surprised. I have five players at my table and have zero desire to add another. I couldn't imagine having seven, and on game day going "You know what.. I should see if I can pick up one more." Where it kind of made sense though, was in the fact that six of the seven players...

    D&D General 5e but fewer rules and lower HP totals?

    I like this idea. My party is only level 3, but I am fearing the eventual leap to tier 3 play. I've never experienced it in 5e on either side of the screen but in all of my years of playing 3.5e I felt like the game went downhill after level 10. I could perhaps see myself implementing a level...

    What keeps uninterested players showing up each session?

    I can sympathize with those with ADHD, and I can sympathize with down time in games. I understand that I'm probably an outlier. I've been really hungry to play so I was eager to join in and get going. And being dropped in as an outsider, I also enjoyed trying to keep track of what was happening...

    What keeps uninterested players showing up each session?

    This weekend I jumped at the chance to play some D&D. I'm part of a LFG type Facebook group and someone posted that they had some players drop out, and were looking to fill spots. I said YOLO and shot him a DM. We got to talking and decided we'd be a good fit and he told me to make a level 7...

    Critical Role Critical Role Launches Subscription Streaming and Member Service

    Yeah, they really struck gold right out of the gate and then just set the bar way too high for any follow ups. I do think Griffin is the best DM out of all of them, so any season they pitch where someone else is running the show sets my expectations very low. It's a shame too, because I think...

    Critical Role Critical Role Launches Subscription Streaming and Member Service

    Yeah, admittedly I wasn't thinking of streaming services when I posted that.. I recently re-subscribed to EverQuest 2 to play on the new progression server, and they offered the 3, 6 and 12 month options. I also started a blog and WordPress does the same for their premium features.

    Loved Balance. It took me a while to warm up to it, but I ended up loving Amnesty as well.. I loved the premise of, and was really excited for both Graduation, and Steeple Chase, and ended up souring on both of them. I had to force myself to finish them. I was already so close to the finish line...

    Critical Role Critical Role Launches Subscription Streaming and Member Service

    I wonder if this is something every actual play series will struggle with? I don't follow Critical Role, but I've noticed other D&D podcasts I've listened to always seem to draw the ire of the fan base the further they get from their breakout season. Name The Adventure Zone, and Dungeons and...

    Critical Role Critical Role Launches Subscription Streaming and Member Service

    It seems the current strategy is to try and offer incentives to buy longer term plans. A lot of places are offering discount 3, 6, and 12 month subs where you pay upfront and it ends up cheaper than the per-month price. They're using carrots right now.. Eventually they'll switch to the stick...

    Critical Role Critical Role Launches Subscription Streaming and Member Service

    Yeah this is the way to do it. I recently dropped Amazon Prime in favor of HBO. I do the same with Patreon. Sub to one for a month or a few months, check out the back log of content and then cancel it in favor of another one. I sometimes fear that losing memberships has some sort of algorithm...
