D&D 5E New WotC Survey! Learn About A New D&D Product!

WotC has launched a new survey about the future of D&D. This survey includes an NDA (which some people have not taken to well!) halfway through, which asks you not to talk about the survey on pain of being tracked down and fined, but it's about an upcoming (unannounced) new D&D product. You can find out what it is by taking the survey (or it's all over social media aready).

Like, three years away, maybe?

Potentially, or longer.

 

[Parmandur]

That was... interesting and not at all what I expected them to pitch at me.

Gotta admit, I got excited that it would be more interesting than it ended up being.

Unless it's already substantially being worked on. 50th anniversary release in 2024?

 

[Sacrosanct]

OK, they can sue me, but I can't keep it in.

the survey is asking questions about the 6e playtests they are working on.

I felt the same! It was so bad I started to think I'd been duped into taking a survey from some start-up company trying to sell a 3rd party product. It also wasn't really clear exactly what the product I got was trying to be, which led me to be way harsher with my comments.

Yeah it was definitely the real survey, although not a good looking mockup... I feel like it's just that, a mockup idea to explore directly taking on the many competitors in that space. They'll probably go for it, but the marketing/financial people want some survey data to prove their thoughts before they go full steam ahead.

I was quite enthusiastic in my answers to them. If they put enough money into it, they could make an impressive looking product. If not, I'll keep using what I use.

Screenshots or it didn't happen.

I did not get this btw.

Hah! That's so potentially a funny 'come back to bite you on the ass' consequence! People can't talk about what it is, so they make stuff up.

 

[The Glen]

I get to question five and then Data Node for Time Data. And that's the end, nothing else loads.

Plus, anyone can take the survey and see for themselves... I don't get the secrecy.

Yeah. It's silly. Who are they trying to hide it from?
