    The importance to RPGing of *engaging* situations

    Variety and pacing. If its a huge exciting combat after huge exciting combat, at some point it won't be so exciting. Knowing that sometimes what is very engaging for one player may not be engaging for the rest. And just keeping it interesting. In fact, one things I have seen so many times is...

    Rary's Replay of the Past

    I would not underestimate the engagement of Pepa Pig fans. But isn't WotC running the show now? The new CEO moves from Seattle to Rhode Island and forgets the fan base? In any case, obviously someone made a big mistake.

    OK, so what does a D&D creator do now?

    Owlbear is owlbear. In practice there is a huge overlap in the material you would actually use across all the SRDs. Unless you want to copy chunks of other OGL games, it’s probably easier to just do it under the 5.1 cc srd.

    Rary's Replay of the Past

    “Oops sorry.” I don’t know if heads will role…but if anyone should know how fickle customers can be, and the need to stay on their good side, a toy company should.

    It is time to forgive WOTC and get back onboard.

    I am looking forward to what they do with 1d&d. I am looking forward to Black Flag. I am looking forward to any other FRPGs that come out of this. Then I will pick the best one.

    Matt Colville weighs in.

    But will they get there? They may try, they have before. But there is a D&D mmorg. If that couldn't compete with WoW, what makes them think they can now compete with Roblox or Fortnite?

    OGL: Kobold Press 'Raising Our Flag' For New Open RPG

    In the other thread they say this: "New stretch goals - including a Project Black Flag Arcane Appendix, to make it easier to use Deep Magic 2 with the Project Black Flag rule set!!" So compatible but not exactly the same. 5.5...5.ORC....5.K....like I said, the battle is beginning.

    OGL: Kobold Press 'Raising Our Flag' For New Open RPG

    Actually, if they are playtesting, then they must have something to playtest. Which means a game, not just a list of keywords. A 5e compatible game. And this all means, we are on the brink of a wizard vs orc 5.5 playtest showdown!

    OGL: Kobold Press 'Raising Our Flag' For New Open RPG

    I just saw the update above. Their new Deep Magic books which are being kickstarted, and which are for "fifth edition games" are supposed to be BF compatible. The Flag, is it were, is very much described like an SRD. Unclear if its the basis for its own game, or just something that gives you...
