Hot takes

I'll start: if your character's name is longer than two syllables, it's cringe.

        I mean to be fair I'd wager that the majority of people don't completely articulate and say: WILL-ee-em, and instead say: WILL-yum.

      3 syllables is pretty damn common in English names.

      She is called moondancer because she once danced naked and mooned the entire elven plaza.

    My character names are always wordplays, like:

    Beatsa Lott, Magi Kmein, Ispe Arc**t.

      Same, but for my NPCs. Currently pmaying as a player for the first time in 4 years with a barbarian noblewoman called Foreva Diem

    That's when you give them nicknames. You can call that character Trel for example.

    This.

    Who has long names? Euros. With their Fernando's, Catherine's, Jean-Pauls and so on.

    It's frippery. Nothing more.

      Not to defend yuros but Jean-Paul is still two syllables. Though these days those people name their children Mohammad.

    Hot take: There's nothing wrong with using an established setting, but if you do you should have a level of understanding of it equal to or greater than that of your most knowledgeable player.

        Grzegorz only has two syllables. Poles just have the worst spelling on Earth.

    Hot take: If your character's name isn't comprised of a dozen or more names, it's cringe

    D&D-likes have their books backwards. Rules should be DM-facing and setting supplements, bestiaries, item catalogues, etc. should be designed to be player-facing.

    Characters with a name that does not fit the setting, is cringe.
    DM's not using names from real world cultures, is cringe.

    My hot take is that classes should cover no more than half of a full progression. In a level 20 capped system like dnd/pathfinder for instance no class should go above level 10. Take a prestige class or multi, it's better roleplay wise and usually adds more mechanical depth

      Personally I think that is one of the things that 4e did so right. Doing Class/Paragon Path/Epic Destiny was really a good way to illustrate the tone shift going into each tier of play.
