Frankly I can't tell which of these I like the most. :spergin:

Its like the most masturbatory, groggy railroading I have ever seen. The fawning comments section though is what seals the deal.

All that effort just to go "You can't defeat my super special villains because the demand for slave pearls is endless and unchangeable."

EDIT: Accidentally stumbled across this piece of un-fun-having in response to Very Serious Webcomic Manly Guys Doing Manly Things. The topic is on Elephacentaur Rogues and their ability to kidnap chickens by sneaking up on them.

quote:

When he tries that, and he’s going to try that, the guards quietly surround him (distracted enough that the other players might be able to slip away) and then ask, “Were we just supposed to not talk about you, then? Was that your plan for this?”

Once again a grog stumbles upon something clever by accident, and instantly dismisses it.

I legitimately think Wayne Reynolds is an awful artist.

His coloring is good, but he has this whole thing where everyone has to always be mean-mugging and absolutely covered in random crap. Backpacks are super fragile in the world of Wayne Reynolds, and people are not happy about it.

I didn't follow the whole toxic poo poo-show when it was going on, but if I've understood things correctly Mearls for some stupid reason (really, why did he?) decided to exclusively listen to a bunch of grog manchildren and design the kind of D&D they would want to play?

Pretty much; and on top of that, the design could not have been any lazier. Whole sections of the 5e books were literally copied and pasted from other 3.5-based games.

Why wouldn't the monk be martial and just able to do crazy poo poo because they're that good at martial arts?

Because that's anime bullshit. Proper roleplayers use wizards who win every fight by calling out the names of their special magical powers.

Then some total scrub who can't even conjure a Goodberry wins the whole thing through sheer dumb luck, and the druids don't let him back out of it because druids are jerks like that. So now this poor sap needs all the help he can get taking on an archdruid's responsibilities.

It's the DM's fault for having a goblin--who is clearly listed as always Neutral Evil--offer guests a friendly welcome, in clear violation of official Realmslore as established in Elminster's Catgirl Harem by E. Greenwood.

Grogs don't think it can't happen the first time much less twice. They're entirely opposed to it period. It was literally a banned discussion topic at one point at ENWorld.

What I like best about COMEANDGETITGATE is that there's a warden encounter power, Warden's Lure, that does exactly the same thing that Come and Get It/Warrior's Urging did, pre-nerfs, and nobody so much as blinks at it. Because it's magic.
