I used to play for hours and hours on end. Now I find I can only do about 4 to 6 hours at a time.
That is fine because I also feel that is the sweet spot of gaming too. Enough to get you deep into whatever you need and not too long to overstay the feeling.
.jpg "#30 Magic Tools (PFRPG)")
PDF. 13 pages. $2.95. 1 cover page, 1 title page, 2 pages of ads, 1 page of OGL. 8 pages of content.
A collection of 28 tools for Pathfinder characters.
The tools are varied from a Brass fastener to a spoon to gloves.
Each one has an associated skill attached to it and what magical aura it gives off. It describes the item/tool, what it does, how it looks and there is even some lore attached to each item.
While built for Pathfinder, it could be used with any version of D&D really, with some tweaks. The Lore is good and the effects can be translated easily.
Why has your favorite game stayed with you?
Well if we are talking about Dungeons & Dragons then I think it is because of all the endless possibilities. If I only ever played D&D for the rest of my life I don't think I would run out of ideas. There is always something more to be done, some new dungeon, hex, or plane to discover and explore.
Maybe that is why it has also been the king of RPGs for nearly 50 years.

Today Wizards of the Coast announced the next phase of D&D with the code name "One D&D."
https://www.dndbeyond.com/one-dnd
The first playtest packet covers Character Backgrounds/Origins.
What do we know so far?
The new core rules will be backward compatible with D&D 5 to the point of all existing D&D 5 materials work with the new rules. This fits my prediction that rules were going to be closer to something D&D 5R or Edition 5.5.
They will be taking feedback, giving people time to playtest first.
The new edition/revision will have new core rule books. There will be a closer tie to the books and D&D Beyond as well as their own new digital service. [source]
Wizards will also be including more features for inclusivity, so among other things I expect more species options as PCs and dropping the default alignment for characters, but maybe not necessarily so for monsters. I think we have seen some of these changes for monsters in the Spelljammer Monstrous Compendium and Monsters of the Multiverse.
So to me, this feels like the changes 2nd ed did to 2nd ed revised, 3.0 did to 3.5, or 4e did to Essentials.
Beth Rimmels over at ENWorld has a complete coverage of what is going on.

In any case, it is going to be fun to see where this new D&D goes.
Grabbed the playtest. Looks like we get a "Primal" spell source for Druids now. No Goblins though as a playable species!
Where? That is easy.
My game room.

Publisher's Choice - Colin C. Throm (Baba Yaga)
Another one I bought a while back but I have not had the chance to use this one yet.
Though looking at it now I think I have the perfect place for it now.
I mean really, who wouldn't to have Baba Yaga in an adventure or book?
