reactions that grows of miasma if it gets to go off will definitely give you that feeling that this is a green dragon so yeah you know i would say that this does a pretty good job of of uh cementing that right which is a big thing i look at in monsters does this thing feel like what it's supposed to be i'd say here yeah oh absolutely absolutely uh

Yeah, for sure. No, I like high initiative for monsters like this for sure. You know, I don't want to take apart the damage too much here comparison wise but we can do that with the gold dragon which could be interesting to do.

Yeah, I like the awe-inspiring idea, right? That just dragons are awe-inspiring. When they show up, you probably lose your turn or have fear or something like that. I like that, so I miss it not seeing there.

Yeah, I think this guy and we'll talk about the gelatinous Q, but both of them had, you know, they have features they had before because there is a sticky shield for the 2014 version. But the wording has been changed. And I don't know that it's vastly better. Again, like, is it demonstrably better wording? I don't know.

It's not that it's, you know, I think I can figure out what's going on, but it is it is. It's not really fewer words. It looks pretty similar to me. Maybe it's a tiny bit. I don't know. It looks the same to me in terms of just eyeballing it. And, and it's, it isn't like an absolutely, Oh yeah, I read this and this makes perfect sense. And that sort of surprises me.

And the same thing with the gelatinous cube. When, when we talk about that one, like it just doesn't automatically seem to me like, Oh yeah, this is super a hundred percent clear and I'm all good here. I'm so glad you revised this. And maybe at this point it's worth saying like, If you had told me, hey, look, the D&D team is going to revise 5e, but it's not a new addition.

I would have thought, yeah, OK, so most of the monsters will probably be the same. Right now, you know, when they say that whole we've talked about this on the show, everything is new. Good grief. They really did like go through and try to it's almost like they didn't they tried to change everything.

They have tried to revise every little block here, and it's a miracle if one of them survived unchanged, right? So like the amphibious trait is the same, you know? But other than that, it's like they have tweaked every little block And again, I have to say, is it demonstrably better? And if not, well, why did you feel you needed to tweak this when it's not a new addition?

And I don't quite grasp it. I mean, the only thing I can think of is because we thought it would sell better that way. I don't know. Or maybe just like we really felt like we had 10 years worth of experience and every little block could use a tweak.
