Yeah. I mean, it's not that during fourth edition, people didn't want more martial power abilities, but there's a reason martial martial power two didn't sell well. Right. Right. And it's complicated. It goes back to that whole thing we're talking about, but it's, it's just, you know, you give people too much, it eventually starts hurting itself. Right. Yeah.

Even if it isn't settings like it was in second edition, it, it still has that effect. And then I think, you know, hopefully fed tradition can figure it out going into the future so that we continue to see this growth that benefits everybody. We'll see.

That basically matches the type of advice we see in the... in the Dungeon Master's Guide. I'll be curious if the levels of play go higher, whether they go to what the DMG says. The DMG actually surprises me, says that later it speeds up. So your higher levels go by really fast. And so I'd be curious whether they will do that or not.

I thought this was really interesting. Like, you know, normally it's sort of like, oh, you get X gold plus magic item. But here it's you can choose gold, a featured magic item or roll in an adventure specific short table for a random magic item. And that's kind of neat, though.

I wonder if there's some base gold either way or what, how that because, you know, usually you need some cash to go around. But I thought that was a really interesting this idea of choosing through those three.

Yeah, that sounds like a joke or something, but it's true. So a graduate student, I guess, published last year a sort of experiment they did. And what they did was they went out. You have to kind of follow the chain of these things. But basically, they went out to fan sites that have created data from transcripts of Critical Role actual play sessions.

So this is fan-created, and the transcripts name each player and what they say, the Dungeon Master and so on. So they took that and used that to train an AI, along with the Sunless Citadel adventure created by Wizards of the Coast. And the experiment then aimed to have the LLM run the adventure for you based on what it had learned from how Critical Role all play together.
