D&D 5E Which of the upcoming books are you most excited about?

[Northern Phoenix]

Fizban, cuz Dragons are cool!

 

[MarkB]

Put me down for Fizban's too. I'm interested in an expanded array of dragons, and also in seeing whether they've got any better at building high-threat solo monsters.

Wild Beyond the Witchlight hasn't captured my attention because I don't really have a handle on what sort of tone and themes they're going for.

Strixhaven sounds like a fun enough setting to play in, but not one I feel inspired to run anything in.

I am looking forward to Wild Beyond the Witchlight because I've been a fan of Chris Perkins' work since he was submitting articles to Dungeon magazine. I think "wicked" and "whimsical" are really where Chris Perkins' strengths can shine.

I've also just started listening to an audiobook verison of The Name of the Wind on my friend's recommendation, and Patrick Rothfuss (who helped flesh out Witchlight) is a great storyteller who "gets" the fey.

Plus we really haven't seen an adventure dedicated to the Feywild before, so even if some ideas are being remixed, this feels more like new territory – not just for 5th edition, but for all of D&D – and that's exciting!

 

[J.Quondam]

Not super excited about any of them, but of the three, I'm most looking forward to Witchlight. I always enjoy adventures, and the theme is different enough that I think it'll provide a fair bit of inspiration.
No real interest in Strixhaven.
And as for Fizban's? Well, I've been a little burnt out on dragons for, well, decades. I mean, seriously: if dragons were so important, then "D&D" would mean "Dungeons & Dragons" instead of "Dungeons & Dinosaurs", right?

I'm most excited for Strixhaven because I think it will expand my potential playing group the most. There are people who might enjoy the available stories within its pages more than other settings and adventures within 5e

 

[LadyElect]

Definitely Witchlight. Even without the adventure aspect of it, I always crave more glimpses into the Feywild.

 

[Faolyn]

I am looking forward to Wild Beyond the Witchlight because I've been a fan of Chris Perkins' work since he was submitting articles to Dungeon magazine. I think "wicked" and "whimsical" are really where Chris Perkins' strengths can shine.

That definitely goes a long way to boosting my confidence in the book! I probably won't end up running it as-is, but I'll likely grab large chunks of it for my Ravenloft game.

 

[Ath-kethin]

I'm most excited for whichever will appreciate I'm value by the same margin as the Volo's Guide to Monsters Hobby store Edition I recently sold on ebay for over 15x what I paid for it.

I will probably get the most use out of Witchlight, but I hope I'll enjoy reading he Fizban book more.

I'd go with option 4 for the unnamed one with the completely new sformat/style/whatever it was on the off chance wotc is going to start admitting that the 5e rule set is imperfect in always thst should be addressed rather than blamed on the gm for not fixing

Thank you for taking the opportunity to cryptically rant about your issues with 5E completely unrelated to the question being asked in the poll.
The title of your suggested 4th book could use some work though, try adding a character name…

eg: Elmister‘s unnamed one with the completely new sformat/style/whatever it was on the off chance wotc is going to start admitting that the 5e rule set is imperfect in always thst should be addressed rather than blamed on the gm for not fixing.

I still think a book of dragons is going to be more popular.

 

[Parmandur]

All three excite me, and I've already preordethem all with my FLGS. That being said, Fizban's has me the most intrigued.
