I once say a roughly animated video putting d&d combat time into irl time. It was absurdly short and anticlimactic. I really think 6 seconds is too short a time.

And before you say "charisma isn't tied to appearance" no you sweet summer child it was originally tied to how attractive a charecter was until 4th maybe 5th ed dnd.
TTRPG design tips
1) put in an appearance stat so I can be hot
2) mechanically incentivize twinks (dex builds should be the best ones, fuck "balance")
3) you only need, like, 3 divine style healing spells, the rest of the spells should be wizards
4) wizards should also be good at melee

Dersney needs to reexplore The Old Republic and make it bonkers like old myths with extraordinary people. Like just go ham on the first Mandalor, have Sith Lords collapse stars creating black holes, Smuggler King treasure hords, Jedi jumping planets with the force. Just go gun ho on it.

"the robots are people too" yeah, they are tens of thousands and thousands of microworkers exploited for this, in appalling conditions of labor
“The robots are people too” is a dead giveaway.
They don’t actually believe this any more than they ever believed a corporation is a person. What they believe is that false attribution of “personhood” abrogates the actual architects of this theft and fraud from legal consequences.

NEW: Common Crawl, the massive archiver of the web, has gotten cozy with AI companies and is providing paywalled articles for training data. They’re also lying to publishers who have asked for material to be removed. “The robots are people too,” CC’s exec director told us when we asked about this.

At this point I want something that gets the feel of a Saturday Morning superteam cartoon rather then this. Also the Thundercat lore doesn't fit in the 5e mechanics, like there are almost no magic users on the good guy team. How will they do the Charecter Powers? So many things that don't fit
Dynamite Games and Comics is adapting the 80s cartoon THUNDERCATS into a TTRPG.
Yes, it is a 5e conversion. Why do you ask? www.kickstarter.com/projects/toy...
