I've never purchased the top-tier card from any generation. Having almost always gone with whatever the '80 (980,1080, 3080, etc), but I'm 95% sure I'm going to buy a 4090.

How do you like OoTA? I've been running a campaign that is almost exclusively in the Underdark for the past 11 months and I read that campaign to mine it for potential ideas, but I found it almost entirely useless.

These. Skinny Minis: A new type of miniature for tabletop RPGs The website really doesn't do the minis justice and obviously some are better than others given the fact that not all the art is created by one person. I personally despise the Dwarves, but maybe that's just me. I wasn't aware of...

Fortunately, for me, I've never caught the LEGO bug. I've also managed to avoid the mini's fever, too. However, I have spent several thousand dollars on Skinny Minis, but the value for those is insane.

I became aware of this via the Clownfish YouTube channel, this morning. It doesn't surprise me...at all. It's all so tiresome and pathetic.

Exactly. p.s. As a self-professed spelling-Nazi, it burns when my typos (women*) get snagged in quotes.

Bob does a pretty good job of explaining the changes so far.

It's probably not as big a 'nerf' as you think. The number of spells with to-hit rolls is a fairly small number. I think Cleric's have less than 10 in their entire spell list. Regardless, I don't plan on making changes to the way Nat 20s work in my game. I like Nat 20s being auto hit/crit for...

I have no doubt that's happened, but his comment is coming from an entirely different place. For the 'jock,' the skepticism stems from the suspicion that he's not sure he'd fit in with 'nerd' culture. For the Asian woman, it's clearly about being oppressed as a "PoC whaman." The White Manz was...

They literally cannot make content without some woke nonsense. Less than 30 seconds into the fucking video there's an Asian woman claiming that "she never felt that someone that looked like her could be the hero in D&D." Jesus, fuck...shut up.

I played whatever the Heavy was called and the move where you'd drop out of the sky and crash into a group of stuff sending them flying and/or dead was awesome. The gameplay was excellent and I remember thinking during the beta that if what we were seeing in it was a good indication of what the...

I'm not sure, but my guess is 8-10k I used to solo farm Fungi Tunics (which wasn't particularly easy as a Rogue) and sell all of them to one particular buyer. He was probably a re-seller, but I was happy with the $400 I got for each one.

A couple of them are 'due' to flavor text, but the vast majority are from the same artist - Harold Mcneill. He's the guy who painted Invoke Prejudice and he's supposedly a self-described White Supremacist. That's the closest they get to a legitimate reason, but it's still absolutely ridiculous...

I think it will, but don't sleep on DoS II; it's easily one of the best RPGs ever made.

I purchased BG III the day early access was released and I spent ~60 hours playing it. I finished everything that was available then, but didn't log in again until yesterday. The game has come a LONG way and it has me incredibly excited for the final product. The initial iteration was good, but...

I'm extremely skeptical of the performance projections this guy believes the 40xx series will produce. It'd be fantastic, but I just don't see an ~80% performance increase happening in a single generation.

I didn't play Outriders until a year+ after it launched, but by the time I decided to give it a chance it had evolved into a truly good game. I haven't played the expansion yet, but I absolutely plan to once it goes on sale for ~15$. I'm not in any hurry as I literally have an inventory of at...

I have to preface by saying that I hate 4e because it felt too much like a videogame. That said, without you being more specific, it's hard to understand what you're really taking issue with, but Counterspell is definitely one of the spells that can create some fuckery. However, Legendary...

That cunt is a British SJW that has a YouTube channel called Come Curious.

Admittedly, I have very little experience with TTRPGs outside of D&D. I've played a bit of Heroes, GURPS, Shadowrun, and some Vampire: the Masquerade, but the totality of it all comprises less than 1% of my experience. However, I do remember the sea of softbacks at local gaming shops, as you...

Absolutely nauseating. Unfortunately, given the fact that I've played D&D for 33 years, I've personally come across (and occasionally played with) the limp-wristed, women-worshiping, beta faggots that would support a product like that. They all fit one of two stereotypes: The morbidly obese...

Not sure if serious.... Well, 4e is the reason that Pathfinder was created because D&D 3/3.5 are considered by many to be the golden era of D&D and the players didn't want a new edition so Pathfinder effectively became D&D 3.75. That's not to say 3/3.5 didn't have issues because it absolutely...

You can find a few 3rd party products published in the 4e era, but aside from that I'm not aware of any fitting your description. 4e nearly killed D&D so there weren't a lot of developers looking to reproduce that system.

RIP Dragon Age. I took a minute to poke around that degenerate's Twitter feed and it reminded me why I don't use social media. The amount of anger and disgust I felt from just two minutes of scrolling was dangerously unhealthy.

I made custom tokens for my party (and their pets) and wanted to share them because I need some place to nerd out about them. I had to spend some time learning to use GIMP, but it was definitely worth it.

I don't want to sound snarky, because I'm not intending to be. I don't hand-wave important purchases and, in this case, I'm 99% sure I got what intended to buy. I just wasn't sure what argument Mist was making.

This is what I bought. You tell me because I don't pay incredibly close attention to the naming conventions of monitors.

I bought in Feb of last year and, in my opinion, there's very little difference between that model and this one. If you're not working with a budget, go with that one, but the 83A-B offers almost exactly the same performance.

I avoid this thread like the plague because there's too much cool shit in it and with my personality, I'd have a man-cave filled with $10,000 in minis (probably unpainted) in 6 months. I only poked in to say that I got extraordinarily close to going to the Dark Side with the Tanares...

I haven't played a Comic book-based TTRPG since Champions 30 years ago. I think it could be a lot of fun, assuming the system doesn't suck.

Magic is insidious in that once it gets in your blood, it stays there like genital warts and occasionally resurfaces. Sometimes years later. As I've stated in this thread before, I haven't played magic, at all, since 2016, but the reintroduction of the Pro Tour got my attention because I only...

I completely agree about the end of the main campaign being lackluster.

Main campaign or DLC? For the DLC I'm playing the very traditional Fighter, Cleric, Wizard, and Rogue. They're all pulling their own weight, but just like tabletop the Wizard is dominating.

I'm not sure, but generally speaking it's easy to tell what's magic by the name of the item. They'll almost have a descriptor like "magnificent" or "beautiful," etc.

I finished the original campaign and now I'm playing through the DLC campaign (just hit level 9). I'm really enjoying it. The only real flaws are the cut scenes are weak graphically and the story lacks depth, but the game feels and plays like D&D and that's what I care about most. At $15, the...

Absolutely. About a month ago I torched one of the creators in the comment section of an update because the 'reasons' they were presenting for production issues were obviously just bullshit excuses. And, just as you stated, several morons blindly came to the defense of the creators. I...

Pure magic-users (like Wizards), in the right hands, are a tremendous headache for DMs because they can literally do almost anything, BUT they require the player to use their brains. As an example - I had a campaign many years ago where one of my players, playing an Illusion/Divination...

I hit 50 last night with leisurely play. Now begins the 'real' game, I guess. I had a question though -- a couple pages back, someone commented that it's common to level 1-50 without using a single healing potion..wtf? Maybe, I'm careless or maybe it's a consequence of me having done every...

I despise Twitch and never watch streams of any kind, but I was curious about the LA drops so I put Soda's stream on in the background, turned it down, and ignored it. However, about an hour in to his stream I couldn't ignore his incessant complaining about the "constant unavoidable AE's" of...
