Probably not hurting the total to combine them, though. The biggest amount of interest is that the Books are very popular, and people want that absurdist style to play at the table.

Not at all. They can be followed, and successfully. They can be happily enough undershot, and you would have to be a psychopath to overshoot them, but you cna build and run a dungeon to 5E assumptions. In fact, doing so is a pretty good horror experienxe, or at least an action experience with...

As a clarifying update: one of the stretch goals they flew by in day two was "all RPG backers get the Season Pass at all tiers", so even someone who just gets the Starter Set at the lowest $55 pledge gets the Season Pass as part of the deal.

It will be fascinating to watch this play out. DC had more backers on day 1 and 2 than Cosmere, but smaller dollar totals, but the number of examples of TTRPG Kickstarters of this magnitude is just two, so how it legs out will be fun. The Backertracker spread currently is $7.5-$22.38 million...

I'm pretty sure the Seasons are what the program is about.

Just started Dungeon Crawler Carl. It's a trip.
