It was always meant to echo stuff like John Carter of Mars...so, weird fiction Psi stuff goes in. Also to be a flagship for AD&D Battlesystem, it nobody ever talks about that, sooooo... 4E Dark Sun had 10 Wild Talents, and the Ad&D ser included a couple with similar names to this batch.

Yup, I believe that is thr conclusion thst the Kickstarter Backers reached some time ago.

Thing is, something similar does seem to have happened with Judges Guild...but the stakes are way smaller, and the evidence if fraud versus incompetence is thin.

I think calling something that is not a fallacy by a made-up fallacy name is bad rhetoric, if not quite a fallacy.

I seriously question the very premise that "most people" ignore any given rule. "The five tables I play at ignore a rule" is a far cry from proving "most." Especially components, where managing those narratively is very impactful in combat.

Spell components are not a dysfunctio al rule, however, they work very well at the table in play in my experience.

It is less than 2000 people following the new project: that is less than half the backers for Thracia, for example. Not a huge crowd in the grand scheme of things.

Thing is, we know the Forge of the Artificer won't have these Backgrounds...we know how many there are now, and itmoatly Dragonmarked Backgroudns. I doubt that the FR book will spend ten Backgroujds on Wild Talents, I really do. Dark Sun, meanwhile...that would fit like a weird fiction glove.

Not particularly: some Psionic stuff is in the Color Blue in general, but it is not a strong overall theme anywhere in Magic to my knowledge. Given the centering of Wild Galents that seem at least somewhat similar those in 2E and 4E Dark Sun? Really strong chance they are at least pondering...

Nah, that doesn't match with what they have done for other Baclgrounds: these are likely to be fairly barebones in the same way, just...weird, in some big ways.

OK, some digging suggests that this is common among people bilingual in English and Spanish, probably since the word used to translate "at" ("a") is more properly the Spanish word for "to". So a lot of U.S. subdialects that mix with Spanish (super common), thst formation will come up.

Could be regional and/or generational, too.

Yeah, very interested to see what 10 Backgrounds they have in mind for these...

Same, American and I have never seen or heard "arrive to".

Doesn't cinch it, but certainly the odds are increased.

Wild Talents are a Dark Dun thing, yes. And the idea of a bunch of Wild Talent themed Backgrounds? Doesn't really scream FR or Eberron (we already know how many Geats and Backgrounds are in Eberron, and there is not enough room).

Yes, the suggestion of a plethora of Psionic themed Backgrounds to match the Feats. Doesn't really fit anywhere but Dark Sun.

Not based on today's UA contents.

I mean. The survey should still sink it, depends on how people react.

Well, it's more complex than that, even: reconnecting with him was basically the central plot by the end. I actually think the cartoon version will be very satisfying once they edit it up like they did the Vox Machina stuff.
