Thanks for making these videos! It's nice to have all the MCDM info in one place as they continue development.

Thanks for giving it a listen!
I'm so pumped for the subclasses. I think for me the highlight is a tie between green and rot elementalists, and the stormwight fury.

The stormwight was a big hit on the Discord. A lot of people want to be a rat lol
if I may ask, how are they handling saving throws?

As of the latest playtest packet I've seen, the defender makes a power roll adding a relevant characteristic. The higher they roll, the smaller the effect.
Eyyy
The concern about the "right" choice for how to make a dwarf is no different than what we currently have in 5e when it comes to selecting Backgrounds, Classes, Skills, and spells. This ain't 1e, Dwarf itself isn't a character type. New players will handle the culture choices the same way as the others, I imagine, with the added benefit that they get guidance for what Dwarves are like in this world.

I completely agree, it's very similar to 5e in terms of complexity! My personal opinion, however, is that 5e's character creation process is too difficult for new players.

@@the_dice_society I'm curious why you think that. Is there a video you've done where you've talked about character creation in different RPGs and your experiences with them?

@@Alex-tx7ih I haven't talked about this anywhere else. Next time I make a value judgment, I'll try to give it a more solid foundation.

Can you list the species that are in the game currently? The Orden specific races are getting lots of press lately. Are the old standards in there too? Halflings, gnomes, etc? (Yeah I know they have different names, like Polder for Halfling)
