D&D 5e video review on Game Geeks RPG

[krusader74]

Game Geeks RPG Episode #250 is a 47 minute video review of D&D 5e by Kurt Wiegel.

Wiegel is is Chemistry professor, and he does this review as a lecture--in a classroom at a black board with a piece of chalk. He teaches the elements of 5e and explains how they differ from earlier editions. He doesn't do every review like this--usually he just sits down at a desk and talks about an RPG product for 10-20 minutes.

Anyway, if you find his review helpful, he has 249 more you can watch--see the episode guide here.

Thanks for the great link.

I think that is the one hour of my life I will spend on 5e.

The guy was great. He spoke highly of how streamlined the rules are.

I guess I will never touch 3.5, etc., as what he described already sounded to me like way too many rules.

I wonder if a kind person without a dog in the fight could speak to why some folks want 3.5 and folks like us want 0e.

I don't think it is about the game. I think it is about what folks want.

I would love an outside party to help me articulate what I want and to help me understand better what new schoolers want. Without acrimony.

Thanks again.
