    What Game Publishers Are Saying About The Tariffs

    They will have to, probably: bit who knows what the situation will be in a few months, it is understandable that they are non-commital.

    What Game Publishers Are Saying About The Tariffs

    It will be interesting to see how they handle this: they made enough in excess of production costs that they apparently had enough on hand for the net 5 years of R&D on forthcoming rules...this might mean they can get through this without passing on the costs, but they might have to still.

    Shadowdark Setting Looks Set To Be 2025's First Million Dollar TTRPG Crowdfunder

    I mean, keeping such a steady audience is pretty impressive. It's not like Shadpwdark is going to take over the TTRPG industry or anything, but that's not the threshold for success.

    Sure,but pushing that even harder to the point of breaking game balance...?

    WotC Chris Cao has left WotC

    Oh, jeez. Had no idea about that. Arena is honestly somewhat predatory in design to begin with, pushing that harder to the detriment of the game...?

    WotC Chris Cao has left WotC

    Nope, but he was in charge of the project thst saw 90% of the staff fired, so that had to be...not fun. Last big layoff I was adjacent to, the Director of the organization I was in volunteered to go as well because he couldn't stomach losing so many people and being asked to continue with the...

    WotC Chris Cao has left WotC

    Yeah, Arena prints money. I somewhat doubt he got "fired" per se, since he seems to have not been part of the 90% of Sigil team members let go, but if Hasbro was offering early retirement packages he may have felt like the writing was on the wall...

    D&D General Former WotC Employee Greg Bilsland Returning to D&D?

    Well, well, welllso the turns have tabled... Pretty smart to bring someone with deep D&D history who has also gone out and learned from other other places for a while.

    WotC Chris Cao has left WotC

    I mean, Chris Cao had three things wince he got involved in D&D - Advocating against buying Beyond...which turns out to have been one of the smarter things WotC has done in their tenure of D&D ownership - Advocating for replacing the OGL...which is probvly one of the dumbest self-owns in...

    Wheel of Time S3

    Some people level it as a criticism of the books ("these guys are stupid, this would never work!"), but I rather feel that is missing the point: the Forsaken and Darkfriends are buffonish narcissists who don't work together. That's the point, that's what evil is (also rings true with my...

    Wheel of Time S3

    It was a definite theme in the novels that the Forsaken were fundamentally broken and incapable of working together properly...and that was on purpose from the Datk One's side.

    WotC Chris Perkins announces Retirement from Dungeons and Dragons

    That's not uncommon for creative publishing fields: you work for Board Company X, you sign a contract that any board game you design during the period of employment belongs to them.
