    Goodman Games: Our Efforts Have Been Mischaracterized

    probably true, I am not expecting a noticeable impact however

    D&D 5E (2024) A critical analysis of 2024's revised classes

    WotC is explicitly not asking for feedback on balance in the UAs, the ones failing here are their internal testers

    D&D 5E (2024) A critical analysis of 2024's revised classes

    Could they have thought about it? Maybe, they didn’t change their approach to the surveys because of that however. I am sure they did more testing, esp. since balance was not a consideration for the surveys in the first place. Do you think any of this invalidates the issues raised about their...

    D&D General You Can Now Get Mike Schley's Official Map of Faerûn

    Ok, so it comes in three versions, no landmarks, landmarks and roads but no text, and including text. It also comes in three sizes, 48000 x 34200 which really only makes sense if you want to print it, 21600 x 15390, and 5184 x 3694 for VTT use The below is from the medium resolution

    It's 48000 x 34200 , guess the 1800x1300 is a preview or something. you get both labelled and unlabeled versions

    Goodman Games: Our Efforts Have Been Mischaracterized

    I find the choice to base them on pinball machines a bit odd. I assume you have to pay some licensing fees in exchange for getting very little plot wise that you could not come up with on your own. Are there enough fans of those to make this worthwhile?

    What Do You Think Of As "Modern TTRPG Mechanics"?

    but then you can turn anything meta into something non-meta, as has been shown a few times in the last few posts. Worst case it is fate or an intervention by the gods. So your approach wipes out any distinction between meta-currencies and other forms of resource tracking, so it feels...

    What Do You Think Of As "Modern TTRPG Mechanics"?

    not really, because in the text you never track points or can run out of them

    D&D 5E (2024) How I would do 6E.

    I’d make every class a half-caster, but not use the budget for just spells so fighters can use it for ‘generic abilities’, including somewhat supernatural ones. I don’t want everything that isn’t a sword swing to narratively be a spell

    D&D 5E (2024) A critical analysis of 2024's revised classes

    not really, I don’t see much correlation between 5e’s success and their polling ability. Also, I like 5e and I still think their polling methodology is about as bad as it can be

    D&D 5E (2024) How I would do 6E.

    Q1: 1 or 2 points lower than whatever 5e is Q2: 10 levels, that already drops it by a point ;) Q4: Wish gets dropped, not revised, otherwise cutting off the top 10 levels and limiting spells to at most spell level 5 fails at the start

    D&D 5E (2024) Predict WotC's 2026 D&D releases

    I can’t stand her, listening to her makes my brain melt, so I do not recommend listening to a full video… 2 to 5 minutes are probably enough to decide to never repeat this though ;)
