It is totally a me problem, for sure. I don't like anything they are doing. Release after release just does not appeal to me at all. And it used to, like almost all of it. I'm still me, doing my thing, and they went of in a radical different direction. So to me I just keep on doing my thing and...

Everything, really. The art, mechanics, writing, quality control, "attitude", con events, there is no part of wotc that I like any more, nothing. And I used to be a "whale" supporter just a few years ago. Full on onboard, bought all the stuff, did AL con events, etc... the whole thing. Now, I...

Interestingly enough I also buy almost all digital "books" these days. Tons and tons of physical terrain, minis and hobby stuff but "books" all digital. Let's just see how "6e" does.

We also still play our share of 5e, more or less the 2014 version that was awesome. When 5e came out the scene and "vibe" was fantastic. It was awesome. We even did tons of AL at cons, full on, we were big supporters. It's only been the last few years that it took a hard turn into awfulness and...

30% hobby store sales decline for Dungeons & Dragons and Older D&D players, are also migrating to other games - Yep this 100% makes sense, the peak is over and the fad is dispensing, the foundational fanbase severely alienated and dispersed thanks to mean spirited spite and venom from wotc. This...

Thanks! I just found it as well. That is an odd one, but now I know which drawer it goes in. :)

Anyone know what this creature actually is? Trying looking it up but no luck, Trying to catalog it. Thanks! :)

Totally on board, there are plenty of amazing options out there, especially the last few years. Including ones with just awesome aesthetics, we are much more focusing on those. There is a built in audience for this game, but a lot can change by release, so we'll see how it works out.

Dude, please don't even with the pre-emptive ‘I have a black friend’ stuff, you don't know me, and what is it with "black friend", how about, Korean friend, or Polish friend or whatever you'd like, I don't hierarchically rank my friends like that. My family including my son is mixed race so...

Quite simply, first off I don't "hate" it, it didn't kill my dog, I don't like it, there is a difference. I don't think the art looks "cool", I don't like the style, I don't think the characters look cool and I don't think what they are doing looks interesting, it doesn't inspire my imagination...

So far, first couple episodes have bene fantastic! Really hoping they keep it going at the same level.

First no, these are stores that serve very wide populations, with one by location attracting a bit younger crowd and the other skews a bit older, similarly by location and how long they have been around (one the best game stores in the country btw). The bar nights are very much the current "live...

I personally have had a very different experience in my recent travels and game store visits. I live in a major US city with at least 2 thriving game stores with big game areas as well as long running game at the bar nights. Has the cliental diversifying some since say 20 years ago, sure of...

I understand, of course. To really break it down, I felt just enough continued investment after checking it out to post some feedback, albeit negative. I currently have no intention of purchasing the game unless I come upon additional content that changes my impressions. So for now I remain...

I was initially curious so I checked it out, then I became “less interested” when I saw what it was about. Not complicated.

It means there is a segment of the ttrpg TAM they are specifically addressing, in hopes of picking up a very targeted market share demographic.

It means I laughed at the art because I thought it was so ridiculous and pandering to a hyper focused niche of people in a style that just oozes an overplayed throw away boring flavor of the week trend. By hey, that's just me, and it's art, with opinions and preferences.

Yeah, it's not for me is an understatement.

Wow, I could not be less interested, it's also obvious I could not be further away as the target audience for this. Nothing about this looks appealing to me. And the art, I literally lol'ed, it's so "try too hard, hey kids" bad, it's like a parody at this point. Hard pass, thank goodness there...
