    Critical Role Critical Role's Kickstarter Breaks $1,000,000 In About An Hour!

    Question: the streamed game might not be your thing (a sentiment many people share). But what about a scripted adult cartoon that doesn't make use of the D&D rules but is set in a D&D-esque world with D&D-esque characters?

    Critical Role Critical Role's Kickstarter Breaks $1,000,000 In About An Hour!

    It's an average of $133 per backer right now. Well over a third of the 30k people (13,737 to be exact) are backing at the $100 level.

    Critical Role Critical Role's Kickstarter Breaks $1,000,000 In About An Hour!

    Okay... 1 million in an hour. The next million came two hours later. The third million five hours later. Forth million roughly 12 hours later, or 20 hours into the campaign. At the current rate of doubling, they'll hit 5 million tomorrow morning and 6 million early Saturday. That would be in the...

    Dan Dillon is D&D's Newest Designer!

    Love the guy. So happy for him and honestly think WotC is lucky to have him. In addition to every Kobold Press 5e hardcover, he did a lot of Pathfinder work, and was also involved in Dungeon of the Mad Mage.

    Critical Role Critical Role's Kickstarter Breaks $1,000,000 In About An Hour!

    Well... 4 million now. 2 million in the next 44 days seems very doable. And the big shows (Talks Machina and the actual CR show) haven't aired this week, and there'll be a surge after those. And as you say, viewership of the first episode is 3,833,400 views, while the most recent episode that...

    Try going through the highlights (https://www.youtube.com/user/TurboCastFond3ll). That way you can keep up on the characters and community in much shorter bursts.

    D&D Art & Arcana Amazon Sale

    Not really. I don't recall ever interacting with you before. Just wondering if this is your plan going forward. Popping into threads about sales and saying "no thanks". Do you also go into golf stores and call out "Not buying anything here. I'm not playing golf anymore."? Perhaps you pop into...

    D&D Art & Arcana Amazon Sale

    Do you serious plan on popping into every thread for the next five to ten years to voice how you’re not spending money? Isn’t your time better spend doing, well, literally anything else?

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana: The Artificer Is Here! & UA Schedule Changes

    Given most campaigns end around level 10, this doesn't feel like a game breaking problem.

    Look up Remathilis. It’s out.

    For the good of video games, Anthem needs to fail hard

    If you think the reaction to ME3 was bad... try telling fans that one ending was the “right” one BioWare would have had death threats...

    For the good of video games, Anthem needs to fail hard

    Disagree. If there wasn’t a high cost to stop a million year cycle of extensions it would have felt too easy. We didn’t need a shallow Hollywood ending where they turn the Reapers off and everyone has a party. Which comes access as “I didn’t like it, therefore it’s terrible”. You’re allowed...

    For the good of video games, Anthem needs to fail hard

    Nope. Free DLC just added the “pass” ending, the end montage, and the scene of the Normandy picking up a crew member.

    For the good of video games, Anthem needs to fail hard

    Destroying the reapers WAS one of the endings. That was the renegade option, which is literally called the "destroy" ending. And there were three basic ending (destruction, control, synthesis), each of which also had several sub-endings (perfect, good, bad) depending on the player's readiness...

    Artificer UA to be released in February

    Yes. For races. Which are pretty simple, and *had* to be included. They stopped taking subclass feedback in May, with the Order Domain. That book also had the advantage of the art already being done, since they were pulling from MtG cards. The artificer is much, much more complicated than a...

    For the good of video games, Anthem needs to fail hard

    It did have to stand alone, since something like 60% of people didn't copy a save. And it's not like the ending could reflect every choice: there's a finite amount of cutscenes they could animate. Each full motion video would have taken weeks of work. Plus, the game was defined by two paths...

    Artificer UA to be released in February

    It kinda would. They work far ahead. I guarantee they’re already working on the book for April 2020. They need to have the content for the November book locked down in a couple months so they can begin final editing and layout, to say nothing of art. It’d be super risky to bank on having a...

    I certainly hope they don’t rush things along to publication just because it took more time to make the mechanics work...
