So when we started this campaign, I was very clear with the players that the goal was to fast level to "test out" D&D 2024 at all tiers, with the intended Final Battle against the BBEG occurring in tier 4. But the actual trajectory of the campaign was up to them: they had a goal from level 1...

For sure. Some of my generation's (GenX) coolest stories were built to sell toys and nothing else.

Art always means something, even pop-art.

Things cost what people will pay for them.

No it doesn't. We have been playing this campaign for a year, and it has been arcing toward the climax. That is how campaigns work.

You don't like Star Wars. We get it.

Of course, the best collection of official D&D religions and pantheons is from Eberron -- as with most things.

Nah. You are thinking of dogma. Mythology s owned by the masses. No one could control Arthurian stories, and their evolution shows as much. The same with the more recent Old West figures, real and imagined. Superman will be the same once he is in the public domain.

Looks bonkers. I'm in.

If it wasn't intended to be commercially viable, how did it end up getting published?

Thanks. Sorry. I wasn't trying to rain on your parade. it is just the first thing that came to mind. Otherwise -- looks great. I hope you enjoy it! If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost?

Is it just me or are the trays not actually big enough for a 8.5x11 character sheet?

What separates Star Wars from Dune or Star Trek? Each was a creative vision ALSO intended to be commercially viable. Smells like bias.

If I create a new setting for the game, I also create bespoke religions (though, admittedly, pretty shallowly) and/or let those playing clerics, druids, etc... define those things. If they want to worship Moradin or whatever, I don't usually mind, but generally speaking the "god list" is not the...

Let's call it 15 since we don't have a lot of information. Still DC 15. Now we are in an interesting space. What does "level" mean in this case? In 5E, "level" generally measures your competence in your specific class and subclass, and area of skills expertise (except with regards to hit...

In the same way that Buffy had that musical episode, or some grounded cop show has an apparently supernatural episode, what is a time in a campaign you were either running or playing had an adventure or "epsidoe" that broke the general genre of the thing? How did it go? Was it intentional? Was...

I don't think it is useful to talk about this in relation to CRPGs. I love CRPGs, but they aren't much like TTRPGs in actual play.

That's the parents' decision, not yours.

I find starting from scratch to be infinitely easier, especially for a home campaign. That doesn't mean I won't use modules as a resource, but acting making whatever WotC decided to do workable with my collection of misfits is juice not worth the squeeze.
