    Heroes of the Borderlands Starter Set Price Point Revealed

    Actually, I looked up his profile, and checked all the posts he made in this thread, and there were absolutely zero posts about whether the perceived experience in playing the new starter set 'board game' would be significantly different enough from buying another random D&D adventure (perhaps...

    Ok. Seems I was wrong here then. Sorry.

    Heroes of the Borderlands Starter Set Price Point Revealed

    Well, that was sort of the point (sorry for all the noise). The starter set seems to have all kinds of board-gamey contents, and is even advertised as being a 'board game'. I just felt that when people who will buy this starter set, will get an entirely other gaming experience in comparison to...

    Bet you haven't got anything else to add to that empty 'yes', like 'reasons', or anything.

    If you know for certain, why did you bother to reply ?

    No, probably not. The experience will be too different.

    Heroes of the Borderlands Starter Set Price Point Revealed

    Hrm. Thanks for the update. Seems like a large gamble on WotC's part to me though. To me, board game's and TTRPG's are very different things. I wonder what will happen when buyers of the new starter set buy another random D&D adventure (perhaps along with the PHB or even the DMG or MM), and then...

    Alright, but ... why ? Are they trying to 'trick' board gamers into playing TTRPG's ? They seem to be very different things, to me at least.

    Hrm. That's odd. Over at DNDBeyond, WotC seems to advertise the new starter set as a 'board game', rather than an TTRPG ? Heroes of the Borderlands - Shop D&D Beyond

    IMHO, the prices that Games Workshop has for any single product whatsoever - miniatures, rulebooks or 'codexes', boxed sets etc. - are priced at the high-end of the market, not the 'beginner-looking-to-try-out-a-game-and-see-if-I-like-it' price range.

    Heroes of the Borderlands Starter Set Price Point Revealed

    Good point, and I don't have a real answer. The point I was trying to make, was that I only played through 'Lost Mines' (with no other experience), and was honestly surprised that some people considered that to be the best WotC has ever produced. Which means that either (as others have pointed...
