That… Sounds exactly like how every smart asshole describes themselves. Don’t know anything about Linus, just basing that off your description.

It’s actually not that hard! There’s only a handful of core rules to know for every session and the rest you can learn as you go.
Attacks and spell attacks: 1d20+prof (proficiency bonus)+ability+special bonuses (items, buffs, etc)
Ability checks: 1d20+ability. If it’s a skill check you have proficiency in, add +prof.
Saving throws: 1d20+ability, +prof if you’re proficient in that saving throw.
Note: all of these bonuses are summed up on your character sheet under your spellcasting page, your weapons, skill lists and saving throw lists.
In encounters you can do the following: Action (extra attack included in 1 action), Bonus Action, Reaction, Movement, Item Interaction, and any number of Free Actions.
DCs for figuring out how hard something easy:
5: very easy, most people can do this most of the time
10: easy, people trained can reliably do this
15: medium, decent odds if skilled
20: hard, rare success unless very skilled
25: very hard, rare success even with highly skilled
30: nearly impossible, heroic aptitude still fails most of the time
35: godly, the highest DC likely to see. impossible without epic amounts of skill and even then very unlikely. even demigods may fail
Musk HATES hates public transportation. Which is weird because he’s in a private jet when he travels anyways.
Like a dragon is going to tell a rogue where their hoard is!
Definitely not a good dragon. ;)
It’s stealing. Training is theft. It is NOT like “a person looking at art in a museum and gaining inspiration”. AI has no inspiration or creativity. It’s an image autocomplete algorithm using millions of other people’s images as bases to combine and smooth out. That’s all it does. If I took a bunch of Monet paintings and creates some brushes in Photoshop and used it to create a new work, those brushes would still be theft. At best, it’d be a collage art piece I’d have to credit Monet for.
It’s popular, very memeable, has a long history, and most importantly: there’s 2-3 series of it running right now. So it’s topical and being engaged with.
And you can’t teleport in there. And summoning a devil or warping the castle is forbidden. And…”
That’s just forbiddance. Just need 1 wizard with 6th level spells to ritual cast it once a day for a month.
It’s more that it’s just more work for the DM in this case. Every time a skill check is called or considered, the DM has to reconsider if the character considers this a routine or trivial task. You can see this in the stats: if the character’s modifier is 5 or less than the DC, it’s trivial. But you also must consider even without a high mod vs DC, is this a task the character has performed hundreds of times before? I try not to come up with solutions, or utilize WOTC solutions that make a lot more work for the DM. Especially if there’s already a rule or slight tweak that makes sense and prevents this work: in this case, no crits for skill checks.
Yes. Pathfinder 2e has a good one.
Rolling a nat 1 or 20 doesn’t mean Critical success/failure. It means it moves the success status up or down one: Critical success, success, failure, critical failure. In addition, that game also specifies that a critical is also achieved by your result being +/- 10 of the result.
So if you’re attempting a DC 35 check (arguing with a god, let’s say) with a +2 mod, a nat 20 would get you a result of 22, a critical failure. But a nat 20 bumps it up one success, so you get a regular failure. Whereas if the DC was 25, a 22 is still a failure but your crit means it’s a regular success.
This has middling applications in D&D 5e, though. PF2e’s DCs and skill bonuses are not constrained by 5e’s Bounded Accuracy. So they can vary a lot more. In D&D’s case I had to pull pretty much the highest possible DC the game suggests so there’s not a lot of use cases for this. But it’s still a better system for including criticals on skill checks. And this is why 5e doesn’t have them normally.
If you’re seeing them here, there was quite a bit here where posting old memes was a thing. It wasn’t just then making it to the fediverse, but nostalgia posting.
That’s exactly what fly is for. Level 10 parties aren’t challenged by simple terrain.
Also it’s a game. Your can run yours preplanned or improvised as much as you and your players like.
Cool. And that exists in that game. But that’s not the core of dnd.
Then you’re going to have boring spells that do damage akin to cantrips. No one wants homogenization.
Most classes are long rest classes. Any caster besides warlock is.
You can play fighter or warlock. Dnd limits extreme power with spell slots and charges. Otherwise they’d have to nerf the upper power level. Can’t have people casting fire storm every few minutes. It’d ruin balance AND ensure you had to cast that every time to deal with increased threats.
Then you have casters blowing max slot every fight and trivializing them.
Use it the first time it’s needed. Always use it. As a DM I often expect people to use their stuff. Besides, having low resources makes for interesting decisions. And the DM will know if you’re all out of resources anyways.
So the issue is there are 1/4 non-straight identifying children in the country. And because of that, god will smite us soon. So to stop that, send the GOP money.
What are you going to do with the money, Johnson?! The implication there ranges from forcibly changing school curriculum (already happening in shithole states), to conversion camps (torture, literally), to murdering children. We don’t know because he’s vague and doesn’t actually have any policy attached to this fearmongering fundraiser.
Wow that’s a huge variety of utility apps. And most people are used to granting permissions to apps at this point without considering since most have that pop-up.
