Thanks. I will take a look right now.

Yes. There are dozens of magic item supplements but so far nothing seems to come close to the previous 1st and 2nd edition books when it comes to non magical treasure like gems, art, jewelry and other mundane items.

That looks cool. Thank you.

Thanks. Sadly that seems to be identical to the Tome of Treasures.

Any books that have good tables for non-magical treasure like gems, trinkets and other mundane things? Doesn’t have to be specific to 5E. I bought the Frog God Tome of Treasure book but wasn’t that impressed. So far the best things I have found are previous DMGs.

Yeah. I have only bought five adventures since 2014 from WoTC. I tend to prefer home brew but occasionally will use some 3PP material. But I never feel the need to make it personal like they aren’t making adventures for old school players (I am almost 40 and have been playing since the mid...

Really? This feels like one of those false two sides to every story, like creationism vs evolution. Sure there may be one or two people like that but the number of people who post in every thread just to bash WoTC, literally tanking whole threads, is an order of magnitude larger that the group...

Disagree. It’s just as easy to add side quests or other plot points. I have seen a couple DMs who struggled organizing sand box style adventures. Leading to a disjointed and quite frankly boring adventure.

I think railroad adventures are underrated. Sand box adventures sound great but in the hands of the wrong DM they turn into a meandering slog. In my experience a good DM can make almost any adventure seem open but with enough structure to keep sufficient tension to keep things interesting and...

Thank you for saying so eloquently exactly what I have been feeling.

What type of printing will you use? Is it offset or print on demand?

Edition neutral means no game mechanics etc from this edition it doesn’t mean no recent lore or cosmology.

I don’t know that it is necessary. But the game is poorer without it. Ranger is an iconic fantasy staple. It should definitely be in. Now if you want to argue Warlock and Sorcerer, then you have my attention.

Maybe some details but I doubt we know the whole story and what prompted them to try it. I don’t see Chris Cooks or other senior leaders writing a tell all. Ben Riggs may spin a yarn but doesn’t mean he gets all the inside details.

Maybe a little melodramatic.

We will probably never know the whys. But I think the general outrage probably misses a lot of nuance. I doubt the sole reason was to destroy all OGL products and he probably wrongly through that they were offering a lot of attractive carrots to 3PP. Not sure it even matters anymore.

Over under on 3.5 posts. Darn too late.

Was really hoping the next KP Kickstarter would be Midgard material. Still may back this, I did the other books in the series and I am sure it will be great but it has been a while since there was a new Midgard book.

Agree with most of what you said. As for the OGL your certainty is not proof. Again while I believe the OGL benefited WoTC, there is no way to prove or disprove that. And people on these forums tend to have a bias since they like and rabidly support the OGL so we probably aren’t the best...

Not just TSR but most companies never would have or would do so. As much as everyone likes to say the OGL has been great for WoTC, and I tend to believe that as well, there is no way to prove or disprove that. Most of us are biased in that regard. I can see how many executives think it has...
