The Neverwinter books are not bad, with Gauntlgrym being the best.
-
I sent you a private message deathssickle.
-
I also made a purchase. Thanks for the heads up!
-
I was hoping to see Sharandar.
-
The video was published by Gamestar. I doubt it's a leak or NDA violation.
-
That was a sweet video. I hope Foundry creators can produce content like that. I'll play it over and over.

I have the same problem. I would love to play D&D again but I can't find anyone where I live today. In addition to the online approach mentioned by others, you can try Pen and Paper Games. You can click the "Find Players" tab to see if anyone in your area is looking for players.
-
I've always loved the D&D character archetypes and I generally honor them when I play. To me, the archer is more iconic for a Ranger and that's the one I like the most.
-
Har har har. I see we've been riled up today. People are complaining but this is the most excitement these forums have had in a long time.
-
So... What did I miss?
-
I'll enter too. Thanks for the contest.

Umm no. Thirty years of D&D, a dozen D&D computer games, scores of D&D novels... they carry far more weight then the flavor text of level 17 Fighter encounter power. Nobody who plays D&D has ever rationalized fighter abilities in the way portrayed with Spinning Strike. D&D didn't start (and thankfully it won't remain) with…
-
I thought the Spinning Strike was ridiculous. I agree it doesn't fit D&D. That's OK, because ultimately I think people are going to evaluate this game for its action-combat and not D&D anyway.
-
I agree with the general sentiment in life but religion in D&D is very crude. Getting things like powers and enhancements from capricious gods is a part of the mythos of D&D. I'm not sure I would want to elevate D&D religion beyond that since it wouldn't deserve it. There's still room for a character to roleplay within the…

Cool. Map expansion would be my highest interest. Classes too of course.
-
The problem with MMOs is that devs naturally wanted to make them "AAA," including everything under the sun. The rationale ostensibly is to attract more gamers. In trying to be everything to everyone, the game gets built with multiple design goals in mind, which is a problem. In engineering, designs get optimized with…

Sounds fun. I know it's a classic. Almost all of my D&D experience comes from homebrew campaigns. I never actually played any of the classic adventures before. I haven't played pen-and-paper D&D for awhile (I moved and don't have a group), but I'd like to find a group to play through some of them.
-
I would love developers to produce more organic ways to acquire new abilities in rpgs. However, D&D has never built mechanics into getting them. You level up and adjust your character accordingly. So D&D computer games do have some latitude in handling new abilities. NW may be similar to GW2 where you just acquire new…

I have no problem with exclusive races that require purchase. I don't consider race to be a part of "content"--it's not germane to any of the modes of gameplay. It would be a little odd for someone who worked up a couple of characters of standard races to end-game without purchasing anything to then be told the game is not…
-
I think people are affected differently by this. When I played the Smuggler in SWtOR I never felt like the story was diminished because there were other smugglers playing the same story arc. The Smuggler story was very personal and I always felt like I was the biggest hot shot in the galaxy. I give Bioware credit in…
-
I've probably played about nine MMOs from Everquest to SWtOR. While I haven't played everything, I've played for about 12 years. It does give some perspective. In my view, the traditional aspects of the RPG doesn't fit with the MMO concept precisely for some of the end game concerns raised in this thread: players rip…
-
I'm all for making the group experience better through coordinated attacks. LotRO had an interesting system with their fellowship maneuvers. I thought they were very satisfying when executed in a seasoned group, but they were not really feasible (beyond all reds) with pugs. I'm not sure something like this would fit the…

Beta testing has not started yet. The best advice I have to check back at this site every few days for information concerning beta and how you can obtain a key.
-
A casual look through the pantheon had my mind spinning with Foundry ideas. That's a great source. I'll be using it in the months to come.
-
You could still maintain your neutral status if you really want to attract D&D players as opposed to other MMO players. People familiar with D&D will understand what "neutral" means. You can just explain it to others who aren't familiar. In my view, the less 4E the better. I would support a healthy rebellion against 4E…

Let us know how it turns out. I almost thought to get it a few a days ago but passed. It sounds interesting.
-
I don't want any real world holidays in NWO. The FR is a rich world. It has all the resources for holidays we could ever hope for.
-
My hope is that NWO will be a first step in producing a wider community of rpg fans that are interested in creating content, and to have that produce more niche games for us who enjoy the traditional aspects of rpgs. Toward that end, I support a Foundry that is more accessible if that means it has less functions. If the…

It may be that the music in the current videos are not the actual game music. The music for many games in development is often filler. Time will tell. Generally, I love game music and never soil my gaming experience by listening to all the music I normally do in life. So I hope for great music in NW, though I have no clue…

Um... are you thinking about a different thread or post? TL2 people have their beta key. CO and STO lifetime subscribers don't. This was what this thread is about (check the first post). I'm offering a plausible explanation for this.
