Can I buy real estate?
Like stores or housing or brothels because a great RPG needs this in every game.

Leomund's Tiny Hut lasts for 8 hours.

I'd see that as possibility to make camping save, but definitely not as owning property.
Like, use a spell-slot before camping to make sure you won't get attack within the first 8 hours of camping.

There are a lot of spells that are way too hard to implement in a game, or way to strong.
Especially with a list of ~362 spells (PHB only)

History lesson for those that claim such foolery *before I stab you all* editions beyond 3.5 are basic, bare bones *most of the bones are missing as well.* 3.5 and it's hundreds of books had rules for everything, had prices for everything as well. It was literally built for massive campaigns the like the editions that came after can only fantasize about. You could own houses, businesses, castles, you name it you could not only own it but build it.

yeah it excisted
but it was almost never used
like 90% + of the time it was never realy used by the players In fact I cant realy think of a single Pre-made that had players buying a house and then sow the fields and such
yes such a thing excisted in D&D
buy ppl like you like to manipulate things :D

One I'm human manipulation is at the core of our beings.

you are correct in that premades didn't utilize it, or if they did not much. In truth thats probably do to those that play D&D as well as fact that questing, slaying monsters is far more exciting then playing.

Grex the Farmer - who with his family and farm hands must defend their farm from goblin incursions, raiding orcs, rampaging taxmen, and angry hordes of kings guards. All the while fighting off the lustful gazes upon his beautiful daughters (cause everyone plays beautiful player characters. okay not everyone).

There is a price table on the DMG, plus rules for crafting, plus rules for adding minor effects, plus rules to make sentient magical items, plus rules for making artifacts.
the rules are a little bare bones to be fair And Xanathar adds way more to the process

In the second game you get a castle stronghold based on your class that you can upgrade similar to Pillars of Eternity and a theater if your evil, so its possible it might make a comeback.

You wouldn't happen to know the page numbers for those, me and my Dm have been looking for such. And yeah I have noticed the spoiler, it's more just the marrow with splinters around it. Though it may be because I like 3.5 and it's lists then 5e

DMG pg. 129 for the table, special features is 141, sentient is 214 and artifacts is the section right after. Xanathar stuff start at the page 128

I was wondering when someone would pop that question here lol, since I do post a lot of youtube links! I've basically got a sorted list of bookmarked vids to represent "feelings" like emoji's but in video-form. xD

I've gathered so many long ago, & got other lists too, so whatever I'm feeling or pops to mind I can instantly express lol. I'm waiting for the day for a user to snap & say, "Wes I can't take it anymore!!! Stop with the damn links to get your points across!!" That's when I know I need to take a long break & say the words only lol.

Oh & won't hold my breath about "real estate", maybe will get something small to upgrade our camp but nothing dramatic of course. It would be neat to build a little community that surpasses DAO's version. There's an opportunity for Larian to capitalize by adding some building mechanics that dao never had to surpass that game even further.

I knew someone was going to repeat it after I said that lol.

Okay with all seriousness, are you guys keeping it real? Better yet, is that how most who've dealt with me feel on this forum? It's okay I can handle the truth, I won't secretly cry behind the computer & be hurt how nobody loves my youtube videos. 😇

Come on, you got to admit some of them are necessary or even funny to watch lol. The OP must have liked it too, he even made one the top answer on this topic! So that's proof that I know how to pick some, they aren't all duds & annoying. xD

sorry can't be serious it's not in my nature at all to be serious. If you are going to cry please post a video of that up, so I can giggle maniacally while sipping my tea, and dreaming of ways to crush the hopes and dreams of recently orphaned children yet more!! if I can't find a way I'll just hire another group of murderhobos to come through town.

Honest I don't mind links to vids especially funny ones, and your not the only one to do so. I've seen another that does so. Wether I watch them or not is another matter entirely.

You could gain control over a castle in BG2. You saved it from trolls and if you were a warrior they would offer you to be lord. It was fairly basic from what I remember but there were a few side quests associated with it and it got attacked. You could mess with taxes and such.

Yes, but that was only for a figher class. If you are let say paladin, you basically get a room in the High Hall of the Radiant Heart. Although a room doesn't really pay it justice. Its more of a cellar when you compare it to the castle...
