Barbarian, Warlock or Sorcerer and some form of shaman(spiritualistic/atavistic druid) as a core for Sword and Sorcery settings. For races you could take Half-Giants, Gnolls, Yuan-Ti to push a more feral, wild feeling. Elves get eaten, humans are just menials. Couldn't do without rogues, though...

I can't relate to any of the choices. I'd just think about what impact this would have on my character and his personality. It is an opportunity to give the character more depth but I wouldn't call it a gift.

A Forgotten Realms tie-in(probably an adventure anthology), a brand new setting & Dark Sun.

Interested. Too lazy to get into the rules but I always was "Traveller-curious". So this is a good product for me. The people working on it also make me hope that this won't be an half-assed attempt to get some money from the 5e crowd but an honest attempt to bring the setting to the 5e...

What a bummer.

I'd love to see a modern take on Dark Sun, tbh, which means it shouldn't be an exact rehash of the old source material. I love the subgenre, as it's close to my actual favourite, which would be conan-esque sword&sorcery.

My main gripe with this will probably be that Planescape already got some books and won't profit from the lessons WotC learned from this release.

Is that so? I guess I'm not up-to-date anymore. I can't begrudge companies to try to make it as hard as possible that their products are shared. Just in principle, even if I don't like the company in question. It's also not an excuse that you can get it anyway.

Mod Edit: How about we don’t encourage piracy. Thanks.

Probably a good decision as I thought the current starter is a bit too cozy compared to the grittier reality of the actual game. Not that the old starter is bad but I never thought it is a good fit.

Interesting, though I don't really believe the bit about not being in contact before they left Hasbro. The game, though, is just another Fantasy game for me. Rules were never that important to me, let's see what they'll do in regards to world and story building because that's were they can...

If you want to advertise your new class on Beyond just do it. Also 15$ for a couple of pages is really steep. I'd rather cook something up myself or look if I can find other third party content which isn't trying to get my money quite so shamelessly.

Lots of great ideas here. I personally want a modern Superheroes game with freeform character creation, either 3rd person or Iso, with a good deal of mechanical complexity(in terms of character stats and power sets) and decently reapeatable content.

Not so hot on the Psion class(which was always more of a Wizard but flavoured differently kind of thing) but I would love to see a modern interpretation of Dark Sun.

Bledsaw's personal account has all the hallmarks of an ignorant, old man looking for answers for his own personal failures elsewhere instead of right within himself.
