>>97204492I've used the brass scorpion, it was pretty monstrous especially when I could triple buff it to be WS5, T9, I5. Probably the main reason I won that game desu considering the rest of the list was myrmidons and a few thallax.

>>96962908Shroud from Dispatch gave me the idea to have a villain who gives his villains cybernetic implants, especially ones that enhance their existing powers, in my supers setting. What supers system does such implants/augmentations best Abby why? Also, what kinds of implants make sense for different kinds of powers? For a speedster for example, I can see increasing their senses so they can better react to things at super-speed, for example, what do you think?

can get a set of purges for $150AUD at my locals tomorrow. are they getting reprinted or should I pay up? I am playing fucking dragon's minds in my BEWD maindeck bros...
>>97201417What's the timetable you're looking at? Your best bet for the next reprint is next year's RA05 or Battles of Legend set. If you're lucky Purge might be in the XSaber legendary deck product next year (and Impulse in the Mitsurugi deck) but it seems like a tossup if they'll reprint it that quickly given the 2025 tins just did.

Why did 5.5e drop the ball so hard? Everyone I know who likes 5e is staying with 5.0e. And more than a few of them have moved to 3.5, OSR, or other games entirely.Is WOTC just stupid?
>>97204491>Is WOTC just stupid?No, they're not stupid. They're a business. They need to sell books, every year. After 10 years, their books were selling very little, so they needed to make new books to make big sales again. This is Business 101. You and I would do the exact same thing in their position.
>>97204491IDK what you're on about. 2024 is an improvement on 2014 in basically every single way, while also being backwards-compatible with 2014.The only people I could see not wanting to switch over are wizards who are mad some of the stronger spells got nerfed in 2024.
>>97204491Standard edition rollover issues, carry-over is ALWAYS partial. The bet is that the new core rulebooks get you the money to wait for enough new players to replace the old.>>97204605>You and I would do the exact same thing in their position.No, I imagine a great many of us would go for supplements actually covering the gaping fucking holes in the content for a few years longer then have the revision bake in what was received well (and popular D&D Beyond homebrew covering more gaps) instead of HR's pet social causes.
>>97204491>why do 5e people still play 5eBecause when you market a game to target the lowest common denominator and use sunken cost logic to milk the fanbase this effectively you will have as much success switching them over to the next game as your competitors did with their products over the last decade.
>>97204491>Is WOTC just stupid?No, they're also greedy and evil, and their parent company hasbro is also stupid greedy and evil

>>97200405That anon you're talking about here, you're basically completely rehashing what I said a little later than that post about fighting a ghost. I only wanted a mecha work that demonstrated dominance and superiority. I never wanted literal realism, and if I used the word realism before, it's because I think you're sniffing farts if you insist on verismilitude instead of just using realism.
>author adapts his D&D campaign into a well-written, highly-entertaining animated seriesWhy has nobody done this since?
>>97194125Didn't Critical Role get two animated shows? I don't know about 'well-written' or 'highly-entertaining' but it's there.Also, there was a D&D campaign with multiple Light Novel writers that was loosely adapted into 'Red Dragon'. I really don't know if that one is good. Overlord is technically an adaptation of the author wanting to play RPGs with his friends but he had no friends.
>>97205076Good. Let's coarsen the discourse as much as possible. The companies will only understand and pivot when they're repeatedly hit over the head with the obvious in the crudest possible way.
>>97199170That's why it's cool, but there is some DND directly in there IIRC.>>97205076Most isekai are not about edginess in the least. Which kinda makes them worse.
>>97205150I'm usually fine with the "shapeless lump of a nice guy ends up with six girls chasing him" isekai, because that at least encourages people to be nice.The manwha that feel like someone got rejected by a girl and beat up by a guy who then fucked that girl, and now the guy is writing really dumb shit instead of seeking therapy (and feature self-inserts so shameless that they don't even bother giving them a decent haircut), are the ones that everyone should despise.
>>97205200It doesn't really get me angry but yeah. I mean, even the usual incel if isekai'd into hot hero would think more about getting pussy than getting revenge over women

>>97204674Ok, let's pretend you are the all-knowing fountain of knowledge from which the lowly plebians must drink from the altar of. How do you define "Inspired by" in such a way as it translates to "Has absolutely nothing to do with the inspiration, but is something of a remake of this other thing they are steering clear of."
>>97204820For a while, the STG-44 was also a symbol of rebellion. The Soviets shipped a shitload of them to the Vietcong
>>97176188I actually liked this short since it was one of the like...3ish? shorts that was not just more Jedi shit. George seemed to have forgotten, and Disney totally ignored that a big part of why people liked Star Wars was the WWII dogfights in space and the ships pew pew lasering each other.
>>97205134In some fairness, Scarif was one of the best space battles in the entire franchise, but otherwise yeah, Disney has dropped the ball on the ship combat.>not just more Jedi shitMeh, I can't really blame people for going straight for the lightsabers when Disney opens up the toy box and tells you to go crazy. I think the real root of Jedi fatigue is just that Disney sucks at making them cool.

>>97198363Completely missing the point.
>>97199086Nta but there are two tracks: stability and sanity. Stability is when you get spooked, and comes back relatively easily when your safe/in between investigations. Sanity is for the true Lovecraftian "my entire world view must shift to take in this new information," you don't have a ton of it, and you don't get back once it's gone. You're going to gain and lose stability every session but, theoretically, sanity is only for big stuff and will go much slower.

>been researching local folklore out of personal interest>want to try exercising what I've learned by plotting out some folk horror utilizing it>don't have much experience with the genre to work withWhat does /hsg/ like and dislike in folk horror?
>>97205163I hardly think it's a defined "subgenre" you can really characterize as such (and that's a good thing, mind you, but makes it harder to discuss).OOMM I would think about about Lovecraft who amongst other thing he revolutionized he came up with the idea of writing local horror if not full-fledged folk horror and point out that there might be a general pitfall: the "cosmical bike tour" as I call it.As in, take his NE towns: Innsmouth, Kingsport and Arkham are probably close enough that you could make a bicicle day tour of all three in a day. Try not to make big shit too close to each other.Also, I THINK that nowdays people (mostly living in at least small towns and not having daily relationships with nature) exacerbate the scariness of woods and darkness. I mean, they are a classic since forever for a reason, but it's a litlle... too obvious at times.Another thing that's definitely overused is the "ancient (and more than probably evil) tradition". Yeah, country people enjoy their own traditions more than city folk and those (seem) older. But it's not the victorian era anymore, and they are not isolated and wholly uneducated.
Ok real talk. Do you think design choices like this were what ultimately killed AoS? Or were there other factors at play?
