It’s okay, they know it’s a bubble, but they’re really really really sure it’s not going to pop for years. Don’t start following the money.

And then kept playing the game without the company for the next 20 years.

Sorry, new here. Still having trouble keeping track of who said what, and who I’m quarreling with.

So you think all hobbits have to be lvl 1 rogues?

Do all hobbits have to be a little rogue? Because in Tolkien’s stories hobbits being stealthy isn’t a skill it’s a species ability.

Magic doesn’t make any sense. lol

It can. My problem was using gentle repose on a severed finger. Looking back it seems like that might not be what you were suggesting. If so my mistake.

Right, so performance over graphics.

Another word for less loading time could be performance right?

My comment was about the plan for gentle repose, but if you’re talking about the resurrection spell it does have text that overcomes this problem, because it regenerates any lost limbs.

Generally games where people had fun making them feel better to play.

If it’s not graphics what is the PS5 doing that makes the games better on a PS5 if not performance?

A rogue isn’t the best tank, but that again isn’t my argument.

Right? Consoles used to exist because specialized equipment would perform better than general consumer electronics. That hasn’t really been true for a long time now.

Once those items are removed from the body they become a separate object. Maybe useful in divination, but not touching the body. If this were true the party could just cut off some hair hand it to the cleric and all their touch spells would be infinite range.

Bards wouldn’t exist without rogues. They’re just a symptom of the problem.

This is why I take into account class and background before setting a DC when I run D&D. That’s my back end way to try and apply this subjectivity to skills.

That’s more because Rogue is an oversized bucket that too many things fit into. Conan the Barbarian is often called a thief, is he a rogue too? Of course not, but many of his stories involve him sneaking around and stealing things.

Tolken wasn’t using D&D to write the Hobbit. Rogues didn’t exist. They used fantasy to inform D&D. Bilbo is a commoner, and just because there isn’t a commoner class in the book doesn’t mean anything. Gary says you can be a dragon if you want to. I would strongly disagree that Bilbo is a rogue. What rogue like qualities does he exhibit?
