Also worth remembering that inflation is a thing and in the absence of other cost savings like technology or cutting payroll, you have to pass costs onto the consumer or ultimately go out of business.
Love a mash up.
Currently just finished a mash up of Keys from the Golden Vault and the Alexandrian remix of Waterdeep Dragonheist with 50% of Paizo’s Curse of the Crimson Throne thrown in. Liked it so much I'm planning on running it again with a different group.
It was touch and go. The lord of feasts is a pretty darn good archer and can make two attacks that would have spelled doom! One reduces speed to 0 and the other paralyzes. Either would have seen the death of three of the four PCs but luck prevailed.
If the plaintiffs can make a successful case that WoTC are breaching fiduciary responsibility when they make more sales then I will be very surprised. Requires a lot of assumptions that I just can’t see being proven.

You’re missing out. Parts four and five have been completely reworked in the latest release.
Instead of traveling to Kislev in Part Four you now track down the remnants of the purple hand, the jade scepter and stop a terrifying Skaven plot beneath the city and in the middle mountains.

I original put in a 10 minute break for toilet and coffee. However it ended up feeling a bit artificial and unnecessary. We just let people go for those things when they want to, which they do anyway.
I kept finding I was forgetting about the break until near the end anyway because of being...
Tomb of Annihilation and Rime of the Frostmaiden aren’t adventure paths and definitely aren’t linear. They’re both Sandboxes. I’d throw Curse of Strahd into this mix as well. Their chapters or parts of chapters can largely be played in varying orders.
So the best linear campaign of any system is The Enemy Within. Five parts. There’s a lot of agency within each part. It’s got the best NPCs of any campaign and a scale that makes it epic. I have played it in WFRP and also converted it to 3e/Pathfinder - possible because the story and characters...
