We made your magical fantasy land into a mundane if not political reflection of boring real life
THE BEHOLDER IS GIVING AN EYE EXAM. FANTASY!!!
I cant wait to play a half orc office worker. Roll strength to collate!
Waaaaaagh street bets.
SPEAK UP YA GIT
Collation uses dexterity, but you do have to make a constitution save every turn to not end yourself.
You are joking but from what I've been told the new adventure has rolls for exams. Maybe I was trolled, I've not personally checked since the entire concept is ridiculous and I would never play it.
They also now have wheelchair friendly dungeons and it's not a joke.
BaalBuddy draws the office orcs often.
The beholder one is slightly amusing to me.
But it's all cancer, WOTC has been lost for a long time to the leftist infestation.
Speaking of whom, did these 2 women who created Dragonlance get their compensation after WotC fired them for being Christians?
Tracy Hickman is a dude.
Pronouns aside, did they win / are fighting them in courts?
They removed the very concept of evil races last year.
The half spider chick is a Drider, a creature created by Lolth as a punishment that was also a faithful servant of the evil goddess. Hobbies include violent hunting of humanoids and drinking blood to survive. Overall perfect for managing a street crossing in a medieval time where there are no cars.
They are also big on slavery. Wonder when they will remove that aspect of the Drow.
A beholder is the stuff of nightmare. Unfortunately they are removing the evil from monsters, BG3 has a good mindflayer just to subvert expectations.
Now DnD always had this tent of questioning evil in villains or making deals with devils or even beholders but they were always evil, now they want the monsters to be average people, average leftists since a beholder is probably considered less of a monster then a white guy.
A "good" brain eating sun-hating Lovecraft-inspired abomination. Let me guess, he only eats the brains of people who voted for Gnomald Brump?
Make Gnomeregan Great Again! Some of these troggs are bad hombres.
He only eats the brains of generic bad guys or something stupid like that.
So the flayer's murders are acceptable because he doesn't care about his victim's life and motivations, and that makes him good.
According to D&D lore, the upper left picture is a master giving her slave a yoga lesson.
I like the idea of friendly monsters as much as the next guy. Honestly, probably more than the next guy. But the thing is, reformed monsters are interesting is because the nature of a monster is to be evil. That makes it inspiring when you see one rise up and defy their nature to be better.
It's almost like there's some kind of applicability to real life or something....
Soul-less abominations from the Nth circle of hell do not rise up to defy their nature anymore than cats do.
Tell that to Hellboy.
Imagine thinking D&D players regularly shower, let alone wear perfume.
Can confirm, I am a regular D&D player and I haven't showered in weeks. However. I do use cologne, it is French: "Febreeze"
Racial taxonomy was removed from the game because neither radical progressives nor colorblind moderates can abide the idea of culture and collective behavior flowing directly from genetic lineage. D&D now officially endorses blank slate theory, a concept that was discredited decades ago but remains entrenched in every major institution for one reason and one reason only: it is a necessary premise for every leftist ideology from communism to CRT to "equity" to disparate impact theory. Indeed, blank slate theory is the uniting belief that runs through the heart of virtually every leftist policy. Yank out the blank slate pillar and everything else is suspended in air.
They are hellbent on faggotizing the entirety of Faerun. Its crazy. When I was growing up everyone I knew had hard ons for the drow because of how cool they were, no one hated them because they were black.
The new race rules in 5th make no sense. "If you dont like your racial bonus, just change it to whatever! It doesnt matter"
There are better systems out there that are not trash.
Burning Wheel is my go-to.
Are this suppose to be for their new harry potter like adventure?
By the way what happened to TSR? I heard they caved.
Quoting from WotC's website:
A natural choice for crossing guards (for an appropriately race-mixed group of kids going off to wizard school), to be sure.
This is absolutely disgusting.
No such thing as evil races.
You can make the games woke, but you can't make people like it.
Of course there is a push to reclass evil things as not really evil. This is part of the Left's overall postmodern, post morals worldview they seek to push on the entire world. And the reason is simple. They plan to do some truly evil things the likes the world hasn't seen for a few thousand years. Your natural reaction is going to be too obviously see it and call it out as evil. But what if an entire generation could be bred to not even understand the idea of evil as a concept and be brought up from birth to think that all things are permissible and evil doesn't really exist... Then you can get away with anything.
