If so... meh?
Its called expanding the audience.I get the thought behind it.
Magic the Gathering has a tonne of lore that never gets explored. This can do that. And there's a decent overlap between MtG and D&D fans, who will be excited by this book. And it might sell to MtG fans who don't play D&D, potentially getting them into D&D.
But that last point is targeting a potential audience over a real audience.
I have remained perplexed about the lack of MtG DnD content for decades.I have friends that have wanted this for a long time.

It feels nice to relax that face finally...
Firstly, I don't disengage well. When someone replies to me I need to reply back. Not doing so feels like something left undone, which nags at me for hours.Maybe take a break until something more solid is announced? At this point, we don't know what is coming.
It's more trying to temper my expectations.You may be correct. Or not. No need to get upset *in advance* - plenty of time for that later.
The catch is that the "sales" of free PDFs with no buy in cost are not a great representation of how well a physical book will sell.I understand your frustration... But I have to disagree on the point of 'real vs potential'. They have been making Plane modules for 3 years now. We have: Zendikar, Innistrad, Kaladesh, Amonkhet, and Ixalan. They are under the title "Plane Shift". This will be their first full book, true, but there IS a real audience already. Sure, you specifically might not feel apart of it, but there is real interest.
It's popular to *some* MtG fans.And Ravnica is a HUGE setting. And I don't mean lore wise (though there is a -lot- to mine there), I mean that of all the Planes that MtG returns to, the absolute most popular is Ravnica. (Dominaria, Zendikar, and Innistrad being a few others that trail just behind). Make no mistake, this is going to sell, especially if what's inside is worth it.
As I've been reading this thread, this is the thought that started creeping in, and I'm not happy about it.That’s interesting, because WotC have stated that they’re only interested in publishing settings that have a distinct feel. If Ravnica feels like Eberron why would they update Eberron. Perhaps Ravnica will include the mechanical updates needed to run Eberron in 5e and they kill two birds with one stone? (Eberron content, both official and otherwise, being available on DMs Guild...)
I didn't want to rile you up, I'm sorry about that. Migraine sounds pretty crummy. No need to reply to this message, just wanted to extend some good will.Firstly, I don't disengage well. When someone replies to me I need to reply back. Not doing so feels like something left undone, which nags at me for hours.
And replying usually prompts a second reply that typically snowballs and results in me doubling down on my position.
Secondly, turns out to be more of a chicken-and-egg situation.
Slow burning migraine without the usual warning aura, which makes me cranky and grumpy from the pain while also tanking my serotonin levels, giving me an extra surly disposition and a diminished ability to feel happy.
Help, please:
