Not too quote myself...but there is a very strong every other edition effect. 1e outsold 2e. B/X outsold BECMI. 3e outsold 4e. Then of course 5e outsold everything. Can they really top it? Can they even keep the momentum going? New things will come along in the next two years, who knows what...

I think Quag Keep actually is official, or semi-official. And Guardians is under-appreciated. But what is really under-appreciated is Gord the Rogue! From the master himself! Oh well.

I agree with the first para, not sure about the second. I also remember those days well. WoD, GURPS, Cyberpunk, Shadowrun, TORG, Palladium games, CoC, different versions of Traveller...these were all relatively popular. Many groups would play multiple systems. D&D on the other hand was...

Hidden in plain sight for everyone?

on size and scouting: does it by RAW, or is it more an interpretation? With these you can make WIS based stealth checks. The loss of the animal HP is a huge, huge nerf in play. And the so-so stats don’t make up for it.

It’s not that much simpler. And with many of the relevant monsters in the back of the phb or mm, the 2014 version is not that complicated.

Up thread some are implying that the new wild shape is not for out of combat use. It definitely remains useful out of combat. It’s in combat that is the problem!

It’s a nerf for the Druid. Wildshape is weaker. Nothing makes up for it. But no nerf for the paladin. Obviously the least popular class is the one you nerf!

Aardling is out (Yay!) because it scored badly on the survey and Goliath--with more giant flavor--is in because it did well. Thats it.

Its that documentary.

When the OGL rumors started pre-leak, I think we assumed something like this for 1D&D. All moot now. But this... Is almost certainly the strategy. How they treat other VTTs remains a big question. For example, Roll20 just announced more integration of DMsGuild material. So still nice, so far.

Just so awesome.

Solo and the Last Jedi are so incredibly bad. Which makes the results so far interesting.

“Developing a tv show” wchich may or may not be Dragonlance related. And there is that documentary, so many years in the making.

A lot for a lot of table.

It was disappointing all those years ago, and it has multiple issues, but it looks better after watching the sequels.

I like it. All pointing the right direction and lots of hints that she sees what the problem areas are. It’s a competition, but an asymmetric one, KP may be the underdog but for BF to be a success doesn’t require anything remotely like the sales that the 1d&d team will need to show.

B/X...with the adventure in each, and the adventures have key additional material for the DM....remains one of the best versions of the game. RC is fine. C is fine. Low number B and X modules are great (as are some of the others). Splurge, get a bunch of stuff (if you can somehow get a B or X...

The quarter and year ended December 25 2022.
