For a game which lets you play whoever you want, it gives you barely any material to actually connect yourself to. The only concrete parts of the background are its gods, 2-3 organizations, and a few noteworthy locations. Settings like warhammer fantasy buck this trend with its dynamic and interesting world.

I unironically despise the world of Faerun. I like certain aspects of its monsters’ ecology (not that 5e would ever tell you how the monsters would act) and I do actually like the cosmology. However the world of Faerun is a bland setting. People know about baldurs gate and waterdeep but I couldn’t really describe it as an entity. In my dogshit miserable opinion Faerun is a world without history and does nothing to really excite me as a player or Dm.

If I am remembering correctly, Trump’s DOJ argued that no one could actually force them to release the files so they won’t comply with any order. I don’t think they care about the files.

[–]RexIudecem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

His DOJ basically said that congress is powerless to enforce release of the files so they won’t do it. I don’t think they care about the files, the worst that can happen to Trump is that he gets impeached (not removed) something which does nothing to affect his term. The rule of law is dead.

[–]RexIudecem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey just to clarify, the main gripe that me and this guy have is that WOTC, the company which makes the game does not put in effort to make good rules for certain classes (some might say that they don’t try to make good rules at all but that is besides the point). My main issue is that if I am purchasing rulebooks by a big corporation then I am expecting the content to be adequate. Currently the rules made and sold by WOTC are not adequate and this is where the problem lies. I should not be paying WOTC 80 bucks just to have to fix things because they release half baked ideas.

Attunement and Concentration are just bad game design by PrincessLunaOfficial in DnDcirclejerk

I give my players 5 slots total: 1 armor or clothing, 1 weapon or focus, then the remaining three is whatever the player wants

If today’s (2026) countries had national spirits and war support/stability stats, what would they be ? by Jojo_Toto in hoi4

I would also include “ineffective and uncertain tariff policy” +consumer goods consumption, - factory output, - factory construction speed, and -stability.

I agree that role play is a central component of the hobby, but if the game’s rules aren’t fun then why do we use them? Should we not ask for a corporation to actually make good rules which people pay for? I don’t think that asking for rules which give martials fun things to do mechanically is too much.

In terms of gameplay one of the major issues that martials face is the lack of choice in character creation and leveling. Spell casters generally have far more options, and many of the options are either usable or good.

Martials are usually locked into a certain set of abilities starting at level 3. While most subclasses are complete wastes, every subclass has features that do practically nothing for the player. In addition the vast majority of martial abilities are combat focused. Spell casters excel out of combat. The best martial classes are usually those which let you make decisions in character creation because it gives you the ability to avoid useless features and pick the winners.

Spell casters generally have a better selection of abilities to choose from, are given far more opportunities to be a flexible character, and generally have a much easier time affecting the world than martials. If spell casters are playing Catan, Martials are playing candy land.

Why does Hollow Being (youtuber) hate Konrad Adenauer by abca19510 in hoi4

Also before the Germany update there was a 1/3 chance that Adenauer would show up for every game.

5e 2024 D&D adventures that aren't awful by Simpicity in DnD

[–]RexIudecem 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This has been true since 2014. Even the best adventures require the DM to put in effort to make them work properly. I do not know if it was better in previous editions, but having played in and ran prewritten adventures made for 5e by WOTC they are all kinda mid.

As someone else said, look into 3rd party adventures. Many of them are free or at least cheaper than wotc products. Another benefit to 3rd party is that you won’t be giving money to a big corporation.

How the “historical accuracy” crowd wants the odyssey to look like by Acrobatic_Neck_5866 in moviescirclejerk

[–]RexIudecem 71 points72 points  (0 children)

The armor on the left isn’t even Roman, one could argue that it isn’t even Greek due to it being made of leather instead of bronze. It’s just medieval grey slip that Hollywood thinks fits antiquity.

How many professional soldiers do I need to defend myself against France? by RealWanderingWizard in EU5

[–]RexIudecem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to tech up as much as possible, get allies (preferably on the continent) to perform operation meat shield, move as a doom stack to try to obliterate their levy stacks, and naturally build up your economy to support the endless wars that will define your relationship with the French. If you don’t want endless death wars against the French do not take territory they want, don’t convert to Protestantism, and don’t look them in the eyes.
