some other poster said the 2 vs 1d3 is the order vs chaos classes or something like that and that it has a generic metacurrency name, but also a individual / thematic one per class. So these are not really vestiges they forgot about but deliberate design decisions - doesn’t mean you have to...

notice the word 'basically' ;) it clearly is not, I never claimed it was

it would not hurt to have more to go on than alignment for ‘major’ NPCs, whether BFIT and or by some other approach. In no way does this mean not even having alignment is ok however that maybe would be true if 20% or so had an alignment and it were missing from the others, but when none do…

obviously I was talking about the tables that use it, not the ones that don’t…

WotC is basically 100% of Hasbro profits at this point in time, revenue does not really matter as much...

I would not expect them to fabricate higher numbers, but I certainly would expect them to put a positive spin on the actual numbers (and not mention the actual numbers, only relative ones, just like they keep on doing...)

if some tables use them, they are not that optional. It is easier to ignore the provided alignment than for the DM to come up with the ‘correct’ alignment for the adventure bastions are a different level of optional than alignments. You encounter NPCs in every adventure, bastions however do not...

are you designing them for WotC / to publish them? If some tables use it and some do not, published adventures should have alignments. Tables that do not use them can ignore them

we have no proof either way, that does not mean the default assumption is that it did unless we have proof to the contrary however. There is no default assumption

backers got an email now, they are aiming for 7/31

not sure why you think that I agree with this

seems they are not the only ones, albeit for different reasons https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/troll-lord-games/tlg-the-factory

maybe getting the digital version is a solution, that costs $15

I do not think it is special, it is growing, sure, but steadily while the sales showed a clear decline at one point that is not accounted for this way not really, that was the same price they sell for digitally / physically afterwards, the only thing that was relatively cheap was preordering...

not giving full details does not mean it does not matter. Whatever Bookscan captures is basically the same for every book, so it does not give you total number of copies sold, but it pretty accurately measures relative success. Which is what the charts show. The one thing it does not account...

I mean, that was the bare minimum expectation… it tells us basically nothing about whether it met actual expectations Core books always sell the best, so if it had not managed that, 2024 would have been a flop

Yeah, have everyone gain 2 rather than a mix of 1d3 and 2, I see no benefit to the latter. I also would not mind the resource being the same for all classes, the real difference is / should be what it can be spent on anyway, not what it is called.

if anything, they accelerate 6e, but there is no going back to 2014
