The Fall of Netheril was -339 DR, over 1800 years prior to the current FR book timeline, and generations ago even for Elves and Dwarves.

This is a more niche product, so ultimately way fewer.

Probably not.

I saw some speculation that she might be the Fay BBEG from the Moonshae section?

I mean, the Species, Backgrounds and Feats can be years of gameplay for someone, Monsters and Adventures are a but more one-off.

Right, I'm sure Kobold Press has razor thin margins. I juat don't think WotC has large margins on a product the price of a sandwhich.

Just reading summaries of what ia in there actually showed a whole bunch of interesting character ideas that weren't all that doable prior.

I'm not saying it is a particularly compelling reason (personally I don't think VR will ever become mainstream, it's a niche idea), but it is an attempt to assuage one of the major complaints VR systems get: the lack of anything to do with them. So the analogy is maybe a flying car advertising...

Not an advantage for playing the game, but more an advantage for this as a VR headset that there is actually software for it: the big issue with a lot of VR systems has been the lack of things to do on them, now at least one's whole Steam library would be available.

Pretty sure the Lich dude is Sammaster.

Kobold Press, first, doesn't WotC salaries, and second, doesnhave the overhead of running a cloud service like Beyond.

Yeah, it is an interesting case study, being a funding project not from Critical Role themselvss, but from another popular creative team. Amd it is doing well for what it is.

That could be extremely cool.

Doubtful.

And isn't new: the OG AD&D PHb was like $48 adjusted, as opposed to $28 for White Plume Mountain...$28 for the 12 page version.
