The Starter Set adventures are bigger than the DMG style adventures. But not as big as, say, Lost Mines. They just have a lot of 1 hour scenarios.

Human all default to Lucky and the backgrounds have their default feats, but they are not presented as an option to choose so much as a static benefit of the cards. The Human card for example doesn't say "you gain the lucky feat," it just says "Fortunate: You have two power tokens to fuel your...

No feats are in this really, the Starter Set only goes up to level 3.

I played it a bit a GenCon and had a great time. I would love to play more but right now it seems like such a convention exclusive thing that it isn’t helping get the word out.

You could. But you’re dedicating a lot of space to the Psion, it’s 4+ subclasses, the other apocalyptic subclasses from UA, the new Wild Talent feats and backgrounds to go with them, plus other feats that aren’t origin, new spells, and possibly new equipment lists and species. I’d rather they...

I very much hope we get a two book combo for setting books going forward. The FR books look fantastic and I need the other settings to get the same treatment.

Source? Because I’ve yet to see a single actual journalist suggest this happened.

This. The average person would see a group playing Daggerheart and say to themselves “those people are playing D&D.” It’s like how the average movie going audience says “Marvel” for all things superhero now.

So for the Dark Sun book, what species are we thinking they bring back? Thri-Kreen and Mul seem obvious, but are there any other that need to show up?

And that’s fine. I’m not saying it isn’t different, and new players can certainly feel the difference in my experience. But I played 8 games at GenCon all using 2024, many of them with players that said they haven’t tried the new update yet, and all of them basically came away saying “so it’s...

I’m not disputing that D&D isn’t at its peak right now. But I was at GenCon. I spent most of my time in the D&D area in Lucas Oil. I promise you every single table they ran in that space was 2024. Idk where Professor DM is getting their info, but my first hand experience tells me it’s bad info...

I’ve never seen a post I’ve agreed with more. Very well said.

That is impossible. The games I’m talking about were Legends of Greyhawk, the new organized play campaign that is 2024 only. They had an entire floor dedicated to just Greyhawk and the tables were always full. I was there every day. The truth is the casual DnD fan can’t really see the...

Idk what GenCon you went to, but the one I attended this year had full D&D tables throughout all four days. I played at them constantly and it was almost always packed tables. The only time there wasn’t was for the learn to play events from my experience.

There will for sure be feats. We’ve got confirmation on numerous Spellfire feats for FR, literally three tiers of Dragonmark feats for Eberron, so Defiler feats for Dark Sun feel like a no-brainer. Also nice to know where the Wild Talent feats are going to be coming.
