    D&D General Dungeons & Dragons Encyclopedia - new product

    all of those and Ravenloft were named in the product description, but that is not enough for ‘more than half a dozen’. I assume Planescape and probably Spelljammer, at which point they just eeked into that range

    ICV2 numbers from GAMA are interesting

    it’s been out a while, so that fulfillment would not show up in this quarter, no idea if it did back then

    ICV2 numbers from GAMA are interesting

    I don’t know, Matt Coleville does not even bother getting into retail shelves because those sales are so minimal that it is not worth it, and based on his statements he thinks that this is / should be true for basically any TTRPG. D&D (and maybe one or two others) being likely exceptions to the rule

    D&D General Dungeons & Dragons Encyclopedia - new product

    “For the first time ever in an official title, Wizards of the Coast has brought together more than half a dozen of its legendary settings” let’s see if that includes Dark Sun… more fuel for the Season of Champions fire ;)

    Does Anyone Care? (Cosmere RPG)

    I expect it to sell in some capacity after the KS. I am not saying no one cares, I have no idea how many do. My point was that when after the largest TTRPG Kickstarter ever you can claim that no one cares about it, then this #2 spot, which they mostly got from that KS fulfilling, won’t change...

    Does Anyone Care? (Cosmere RPG)

    since this can be explained by the Kickstarter fulfilling… If you can say that after the biggest TTRPG kickstarter, this won’t change a thing

    Ravenloft: The Horrors Within Announced, Release Date Scheduled for June 2026

    I don’t know, but then there probably is a lot of D&D art I have never seen. That there is a hand on his shoulder to me means he was taken from a bigger picture that was meant for a different purpose, I assumed it would have been taken from something that had been published, just like many of...

    D&D 5E (2024) How I Would Do 5.75

    I would go straight to 6e, no need to make more small tweaks to 5e, but if they did, I like most of the stuff they threw out from the UAs better than what we got, so I’d bring universal subclass levels back, make the warlock a half-caster, etc. Too little, too late though for me by now

    Ravenloft: The Horrors Within Announced, Release Date Scheduled for June 2026

    I am not expecting that, but when someone uses the existence of new art as support for a DL product using it, it is fair to point out that the art probably is not actually new / not intended for that product

    is that fresh art? I feel like he would not have a hand sitting on his shoulder if it were

    Ravenloft: The Horrors Within Announced, Release Date Scheduled for June 2026

    that and the whole 5th Age idea that was cooked up because TSR was not meant to have star authors, so in their attempt to bury Weis & Hickman they managed to kill the setting as a collateral

    Ravenloft: The Horrors Within Announced, Release Date Scheduled for June 2026

    isn’t that basically what most anthologies did, heck even many of the full length adventures (Strahd, Princes of the Apocalypse, Tomb of Annihilation, …)

    Ravenloft: The Horrors Within Announced, Release Date Scheduled for June 2026

    the 90+% of people who started playing with 5e? so no different from other APs, and it seems to be working for those I doubt any of this will be true

    possibly, but I don’t think you need even that. Add a new Kender and call it a day. If you only publish an adventure, focus on that. If it will be a two book pair like the Fall ones then obviously include as much as possible
