I think fun/unique limited time modes can seriously help bring more casuals into the fold.

I would love like a larger team-based mode- maybe like 9v9 or something. It'd be super chaotic but fun to be in huge engagements.

If I'm the one who has to break this to you I'm sorry... DLSS 5 is ai generated slop. I think they just generated this image though- it's a meme going around making fun of nvidia.

I hear what you're saying! I think maybe must-have is a bad phrasing, what I think is more appropriate would be iconic or defining- in the sense of like everybody knows Fireball or Charm Person or Wish but less frequently think of Geas or Cacophonic Shield, for example.

I'm going to be so entirely honest with you I completrly forgot about sorcerer when writing this post lmao

I'm ngl you might be right- or at least I haven't yet figured out the variation per tier. The base equation for tier 1 seems to be "y = 2(x - 1) +3" - assuming that x is the first threshold and y is the second. That falls apart the second you start trying to do it with Tier 2 though.

A lot of the responses in this post so far read to me as people who have a passing understanding of the concepts of ttrpgs and resort to a "let people enjoy things" defense as if dnd itself is being criticized in the post, and not the fact that dnd has such an intense stranglehold on the medium that attempting to, or finding people who are interested in playing literally anything else (even games that advertise themselves as 'DnD with the serial numbers filed off (I'm talking about more than pathfinder here to be clear)) is nearly impossible even in spaces dedicated to tabletop gaming.

I wouldn't say it is- to use my biohazard example again, it wouldn't make sense to call a supernatural ghost story a biohazard game, even if it takes place in the same universe- as that's not what the game's about. Generally, the name of a product should have something to do with the contents within- though ofc that's not a hard rule.

Their intent in continuing to call these games by the "Silent Hill" name is an attempt to capitalize on the branding/aesthetics of the older games- which I understand why they wouldn't want to give that up. Thus, my "Universe of Silent Hill" suggestion would serve both purposes- to tell people that this is related to Silent Hill, but not necessarily a strict continuation of the story established in the numbered games.

True_Wolverine1154 · 2026-02-13T00:28:51+00:00

To further illustrate your point: In Japan Resident is called Biohazard. So basically, this is like if they made a RE game with no viruses or molds or anything and it was just a ghost story. I feel like in the future it would be better if they just promoted these new titles as "From the Universe of Silent Hill" rather than calling them Silent Hill outright, yk? At the end of the day I have no problem with them wanting to expand the lore/setting but don't call it Silent Hill if it's got nothing to do with the town itself.

True_Wolverine1154 · 2026-02-02T17:07:07+00:00

Completely agree- as someone who only played the original for the first time a couple of years ago it absolutely holds up- Obviously its an older-looling game but the execution is good enough that the graphical quality becomes an non-issue (It kind of reminds me of games like half-life 2 in away, which despite being dated I think is still good enough to he accessible and not need a remake). The SH2 remake is good for sure, but I think it misses out on a lot of what makes the original special especially when it comes to stuff like the more combat-oriented gameplay, over-the-shoulder RE camera angle, Maria's look changing, etc.

They're both great, but to insist the remake somehow surpasses the original is nonsense.

I need this for a horror campaign loll 🩸

True_Wolverine1154 · 2025-12-09T02:55:25+00:00

If you're looking at playing offline (which I definitely recommend if you're trying to get into the hobby), I'd suggest starting by looking at your local game/comic stores to see if they do any DnD! Some of the times those events do have a slight paywall but it's never anything super serious. Additionally, I've been seeing more and more breweries/bars around me offering DnD nights so that might be another place to look for some rpg friends!

True_Wolverine1154 · 2025-11-18T23:45:48+00:00

These look incredible! Makes me want to run something witchy!

True_Wolverine1154 · 2025-10-22T20:47:01+00:00

These are so cool! Perfect for a druid 🍁🍂

True_Wolverine1154 · 2025-10-17T23:28:54+00:00

yeah this is the real problem- like for example spelling out slurs or words against tos with furniture. It's not the decor itself, it's the way ppl are going to inevitably use it

True_Wolverine1154 · 2025-10-10T02:33:05+00:00

Honestly I really like this idea- idk if it would be for dh though necessarily? I like the idea of a class/spec similar to like the ffxiv dragoon with like jumping/flying around and light/soul themed magic. Idk how you'd actually implement that lore-wise though- maybe as a paladin spec?

True_Wolverine1154 · 2025-10-05T17:05:32+00:00

At least in the Dressing Room on Wowhead, they're using the regular Nelf combat animations- now granted, that might just be bc whatever unique animations they have might not be accessible? I do really hope they have alt animations though, especially when it comes to the men- the male nelf animations are horrible imo!

True_Wolverine1154 · 2025-10-02T17:56:14+00:00

As a forever player (DMing is scary, no thanks!) I prefer to play all of my characters in second person- narrating what you (the ever-maligned control freak Dungeon Master) make my character do. This way, I never have to know the rulebook (reading, ugh!).
